Practice Mode

Practice Mode is a feature in Geometry Dash and Geometry Dash Lite that is designed to help the player learn the layout of a level, during which time they will not be forced to restart from the beginning in the instance of a crash. Instead, they are allowed to place checkpoints, marked by green gems.

Description
To enable practice mode, it must be selected through the pause menu using the large gem button on the left. By default, checkpoints are automatically generated every so often, although this option can be unchecked. The last checkpoint placed can also be removed if inconvenient, where the player can then proceed from the previous checkpoint. This can be done as many times as required.

Progress on practice mode is recorded separately from normal mode, and it does not offer the standard level rewards of secret coins or stars. However, other achievements will unlock as usual.

Controls

 * On a mobile device, buttons will appear that can be tapped to place and remove checkpoints.
 * On Steam, pressing the 'Z' key will place a checkpoint, while pressing the 'X' key will remove it.

Trivia

 * Enabling practice mode will always change the soundtrack to Stay Inside Me by OcularNebula. It will play continuously, even through crashes, and loop back to the beginning immediately once it has finished.
 * For the cube or ball forms, checkpoints will automatically be generated sooner following a series of rapid movements. For other forms, checkpoints are not visible, and are instead generated a set distance behind the character.
 * Attempting to collect a secret coin will have the character travel right through it as if it were a decoration.
 * Decorations do not pulsate to the beat as the main song does not play during practice mode.
 * Cycles, xStep and Clubstep are the only levels that reward icons upon completion in practice mode.
