poocubed is a 2.1/2.2 Extreme Demon mega-collaboration level hosted and published by Lisp, co-hosted by Earthum and verified by kyass on 1 November 2022.[1] The level is the third instalment of the poocu tetralogy, preceded by twocu and succeeded by poocu4ever. The level was initially set to be the hardest level in the game; however, it has since been nerfed into Top 10 difficulty. It was cancelled for a while due to Lisp quitting Geometry Dash. However, Lisp gave it to Earthum to finish. Since then, Lisp came back to the game to finish creating the level.
History
[edit | edit source]The story of poocubed begins on 12 January 2022, when btLisp uploaded the already-fully-built layout of the level to his YouTube channel.[2] At that time, due to the level's intensively difficult gameplay, it could have potentially placed within the Top 10 of the Demonlist . Soon, decoration of the project was undertook, and it went quite smoothly. In the meantime, a Creator Contest for the level was announced. On 15 June, btLisp uploaded humorous results of the Creator Contest Entry to the channel with a part in the style of Sonic Wave, but the actual decorations were also demonstrated.[3] On 16 July, btLisp published a showcase of the fully decorated level on his YouTube channel.[4] Initially, Zoink took interest in being the level's verifier, but soon he stepped back from verification. The verification project was transferred to Kyass.
Verification
[edit | edit source]kyass uploaded her first verification progress of the level on her YouTube channel on 9 October 2022, where she got to 74% of the level.[5] That would be her first and the last progress update, as her next video was already the level's verification, which happened on 1 November 2022.[6] The author did not upload their attempt count, nor other statistics.
