Jax
Jax (formerly known as Gw Jax) is a South Korean player and level creator. Jax created many Demons, most of which made it into Demon Map Packs. Jax is also known for making The Nightmare, one of the first and most liked Demon levels.
History
[edit | edit source]As mentioned earlier, Jax created The Nightmare. It was one of the game's first five Demons and is Jax's first Demon. After it was verified and classified as a Demon, Jax praised himself for creating The Nightmare and for the level making it into Demon Pack 3. Jax was ecstatic with the way the level turned out, and it became one of the most liked levels in the game.
Jax is also known for making the second auto level, named auto play area. This level inspired RobTop to add the Auto difficulty rating so he could rate it correctly.
Another of Jax's achievements was creating one of the first collaboration levels, Collaboration, with saRy, Dorabae, Ark, and many more. Particularly, this level popularised the concept of collaboration levels; nowadays, they are very common. It was also one of the first mega-collaborations (a collaboration between six or more players).
Jax started creating in Update 1.1 and quit sometime around Update 1.7. His last level was Project J.
However, Jax made a comeback during late-2.0 with a registered account called Pnvolt. Despite this, he did not start anything new. As of now, his newer account is most likely inactive indefinitely, since Jax eventually made an account that included his more famous levels.
During Update 2.1, Jax made an account with fewer stats than before, most likely losing them when creating the account.
After staying dormant for quite a bit, Jax managed to retrieve his old account with the help of icedcave in March 2021. Jax returned after five months of inactivity.
Jax then found a Twitter gimmick account owned by a Vietnamese player named MstGhasty that posted on his behalf. According to Mst, he became friends in Geometry Dash and Discord after Mst was permitted to continue using the account.
On 18 December 2024, Jax released his first level in over three years (and the first level he had built in over 10 years) called Determination. It has an Undertale theme and 2.2 features.
Levels
[edit | edit source]- Unrated levels
- Determination - A Undertale-themed XL level with 2.2 features.
- Softlargeist - Jax's long-lost level, originally deleted from the servers around six years ago but was found and reuploaded.
- Auto levels
- auto play area - Second-ever Auto-rated level as well as the most downloaded and most liked Auto level.
- Auto jumping Area - As the title and the description suggest, it is a sequel to auto play area.
- Normal levels
- Level A - Jax's fourth level. It has a 1.0 style, and the letter 'A' recurs throughout the level, appearing three times.
- Hard levels
- Exploring Area - Jax's 10th level. It is a mix of his first levels.
- Stand On Track - Jax's 14th level. A remake of Back On Track.
- Harder levels
- Oh Yeah - Jax's first level. The level consists of several paths to complete. Interestingly, none of the paths leads to a dead end.
- Timing - Jax's third level. The level may be named 'Timing' because of some weird timings the level contains.
- Square Madness - Jax's 12th level. The title and the song suggest that it is a remake of Stereo Madness, but the level does not resemble Stereo Madness at all.
- Insane levels
- JaXstep - Jax's eighth level. It is his version of xStep. It has an overwhelmingly large number of traps.
- Deluxe Bomba - Jax's ninth level.
- One Day - Jax's 13th level. It has a black background for most of the level.
- Easy Demon levels
- The Nightmare - Jax's first Demon and the second level in the Demon Pack 3.
- Super Cycles - Jax's second Demon. It is also the first level in the Demon Pack 2. As its title suggests, it may be a remake of Cycles. It is another level with a huge number of traps.
- Operation - A level that was widely disliked when first released but now has around 100,000 more likes than dislikes. It is similar to Very Hard CLG by FunnyGame but significantly harder. It is probably a remake of Can't Let Go, even though the only resemblance is that both levels use the same song.
- Medium Demon levels
- Project J - It is currently his only level with a dislike ratio. It is a Demon based on strange timings and fakes. Jax commented lots of things in this level, like 'Practice, you need to practice again and again' and 'Every one dislike? Thank you'.
