Netermind is an American player. He is widely regarded as one of the best players in the game today. He is known for beating the hardest Extreme Demons and beating levels in low attempt counts, namely Anathema, Spectre, Acheron and Tidal Wave, which is his hardest achievement yet. Throughout his career, he had to rebeat his completions many times, sometimes even a third time, because he would not record them.

Netermind reached a peak position of #3 on the Pointercrate Individual Stats Viewer, his highest placement on the Stats Viewer since overtaking Trick on 14 February this year. Trick eventually surpassed Netermind later on.

Netermind is currently working toward completing Thinking Space II, the former hardest-rated level, and has placed third (or higher) in the Best Classic Player category at The Geometry Dash Awards.

History

Netermind created his YouTube channel on 23 May 2021, and uploaded his first video on 23 December 2021, in which he crashed at 93% on ErebuS. He uploaded his next video on 13 February 2022, where he did an 80-100% run on Wasureta. On 7 May 2022, he beat the level as a jump from Bloodbath. It was his first Main List Demon. He then beat Leyak on 20 June. He then started playing kowareta, Cognition, and CITRA, beating the latter on 27 November as a new hardest. He started playing Delusion, Top 11 Challenge at the time, as well as Rust and VSC. On 26 December, he completed Delusion after around 20,000 attempts.

The next year, he would beat kowareta on 22 January, then RUST on 25 February after playing it for a long time, and then he swiftly completed Cognition the next day as a new hardest after around 20,000 attempts, Renevant as a next hardest on 1 March, and Crimson Planet on 5 March after less than 20,000 attempts. Meanwhile, he would start making very good progress on LIMBO and Slaughterhouse, then beat Spectrum Cyclone on 21 March and then on 25 March, he beat UNKNOWN as a new hardest, which was Top 15 at the time in 13,422 attempts. Following this, on 13 April, he completed yet another hardest, LIMBO, Top 8 at the time. After all this, he would rebeat some levels he had previously beaten.

On 4 May 2023, he beat NEUTRA, three days later, Knights of Thunder, then beat Oblivion on 16 May as his second hardest. He would then upload a video in which he got runs on VSC of 50-100%, 20-66%, and 40%. He then beat Tartarus on 2 August after worst fail at 98%, completed Sigma on 6 August, ATOMIC CANNON on 18 August, and got impressive progress on Trueffet and Slaughterhouse. After crashing at 75% on the latter, he finally beat Slaughterhouse on 3 September, taking around 60,000 attempts and achieving a former world-record fluke. Completing Slaughterhouse would consolidate Netermind's position as a skilled player and make his name known in the community.

After that, he would start making progress on The Golden, mainly Acheron. He beat the former on 22 October 2023. In the meantime, he made outstanding progress on Acheron: 50% and 40-100% on 17 September, 60% and 17-82% on 26 September, 30-100% on 29 September, and 72% on 30 September. He then completed Eyes in The Water on 29 October, Shukketsu on 9 November, At the same time, he was getting 16-94% on Acheron on 4 November, 75% on 25 November, 80% and 17-97% on 27 November, and on 8 December, he would achieve 17-100%, which was his new hardest thing he had done in the game. On 17 December, he got 90%, 91% on 18 December, and 97% on 31 December. On 11 February 2024, he finally beat Acheron as a new hardest after all these fails and around 65,000 attempts. After Acheron, he quickly started destroying List Demons at a really fast pace.

On 11 February 2024, he got 48-100% on Avernus, then completed Qoueo on 14 February, and on 20 February, fluked Sakupen Circles from 60%, saying, that it's way easier than Slaughterhouse and could be easier than Firework. Netermind completed ATOMIC CANNON Mk II on 25 February, then shimmer on 10 March, and on 28 March, he passed VSC which was his proudest accomplishment he was trying to achieve. Two days later he beat Terminal Rampancy, Aerial Gleam on 2 April, and on 3 April completed Kenos in around 3,900 world record attempts. His spree continued after that.

On 10 April 2024, he beat Sonic Wave Infinity, on 13 April, Amalgam in around 1,400 attempts, on 21 April, Lotus Flower, on 26 April, Critical Heat, Solar Flare on 4 May, then on 6 May, fluked Zodiac from 62% after two days of playtime, beat Promethean on 13 May, Sky Shredder on 21 May, arcturus on 25 May, Kyouki on 10 June after around 28,000 attempts, and Abyss of Darkness on 15 July. In that moment he had five Top 10s and two Top 5s completed. Netermind urged everyone to nominate him for Best Player of 2024, as it was his all-time goal; however, he was not even nominated for the Best Classic Player award that year. Meanwhile, Netermind's pace of completing levels did not seem to slow down.

He completed Midnight on 20 July 2024, The Hallucination on 28 July, Crackhead Circles on 30 July, Firework on 13 August, Menace and COMBUSTION on 11 September, walter white on 17 September, Mayhem on 24 September, PSYCHOPATH on 29 September, The Yangire on 5 October, Saul Goodman on 10 October, Spectre on 3 November, poocubed on 7 November, MINUSdry on 12 November, Belladonna on 19 November, Tunnel of Despair after around 11,000 attempts on 30 November, KOCMOC twice in a row on 11 December, Deimos in less than 9,000 attempts on 25 December, and BPATA MPAKA after 56% fluke on 27 December.

Netermind started 2025 by completing Bloodlust on 19 January. After that, he ground both Avernus and Anathema, achieving 84% and 23-100% on the former and 99% twice on the latter. Then on 18 March, he completed Anathema as a new hardest. Besides dying at 99% twice, he also crashed at 92%, 90%, 88% and 86% thrice. This achievement took him around 15,000 attempts. Just eight days later, he beat Avernus as a new hardest again, completing it in between 28,000 and 29,000 attempts. Following that, he started playing the then-Top 1 level Tidal Wave, achieving 50% on 12 May, 59% and 38-100% on 23 May, and 74% on 26 May. Netermind would then start playing Silent clubstep as a break, achieving 26% and 24-100% on 20 June. He completed the level on 24 July after around 18,000 attempts. Then, he completed Apocalyptic Trilogy on 4 August, and on 24 August, he got an impressive 53-100% run on the upcoming Top 1 level Vehemence (which was then being verified by wPopoff). On 5 September, he beat Sevvend Clubstep after six hours of playing, and beat Edge of Destiny on 15 September.

Netermind then returned to Tidal Wave, achieving 29-100% on 27 September 2025, 84% on 13 October, and 22-95% on 23 October, practically beating the level. Next, he completed Defeated Circles on 29 October after nine hours of play. On 31 October, he almost beat Tidal Wave, crashing at 95%, where Zoink, Trick and wPopoff all crashed before. On 2 November, he verified ASTR1D, an easy Extreme Demon. On 6 November, he finally beat Tidal Wave after around 50,000 attempts, deaths at 74% twice, 75%, 81%, 82% twice, 84% twice, and 95%, and 54 hours of playtime. Quickly following this, he would go on to complete The Lightning Rod on 16 November after 15 hours of playtime, Subterminal Point on 11 December after nine hours of playing, Kosetsu on 17 December for '12 Demons of Christmas' event after seven hours of playtime, and andromeda on 25 December for 12 Demons of Christmas event finale after 15 to 16 hours of playing. On 26 December, he started playing the then-Top 1 Extreme Demon Thinking Space II, beating it in three runs. For his last video of 2025, he uploaded his best record of 49% and 46-85%.

On 21 January 2026, he uploaded a Q&A video and answered various questions from his viewers. On 14 February, Netermind became the #3 player on the Stats Viewer, posting a video on his channel about finally passing Trick. On 21 February, he got runs of 56% and 29-84% on Thinking Space II, saying his goal in 2026 is to achieve third place in the Best Classic Player category at The Geometry Dash Awards. On 10 March, he got 46-100% and 62% the next day, then 65% on 26 May. On 4 April, he got 67% on Thinking Space II, then 85% on 8 April, and 89% on 13 April. After a break from the level, he started streaming again on 27 May but did not set a new best. He then started playing Penumbral and already had 87% twice and 28-97% by 13 June.

• Netermind was invited to an interview hosted by the popular content creator Vernosis, which happened on 6 May 2026, answering questions mainly related to the Demonlist, his recent attempts to beat Thinking Space II as a new hardest, and his view of the difficulty of certain levels on the Demonlist.
• Netermind got into playing the game by watching various YouTubers, mainly DanTDM, who was one of the pioneers of Geometry Dash content creation.
• Netermind's skill drastically improved in 2023 after he switched from a mouse to the keyboard, because he broke his right wrist, which kept him from using a mouse for a couple of months.

After talking to his friend Timy, both decided to make a Discord server, called 'The SARK Park'. All members of the Discord server changed their profile pictures to a shark, and thus the SARK clan was born.
• Members of the 'The SARK Park' Discord server and members of the SARK clan on Pointercrate are different people, because not all of them have beaten a List Demon.
  • Members of the SARK clan are Netermind (leader), cudby, his best friend Timy, Bamvie, CookedPugs, ddamian, kane, KingKain, 1ssky, rizekk, RevueGD, Itz Mike, Vazian, amigo16 and Loading. Netermind, Timy and cudby are the best players amongst the clan.

• Netermind thinks that the current Top 10 is very unique, with Flamewall being his favourite level, and Quanteuse processing his least favourite.
• Netermind thinks that the new upcoming Top 1, Heliopolis, is not close to the skill limit in Geometry Dash, bringing up the fact that Zoink progressed in a week despite initially not even planning on verifying the level.
• On 22 April 2026, the SARK YouTube channel was launched, taking inspiration from various 'TCD' group YouTube channels' videos.
