Geometry Dash is a horizontal runner-style game developed and published by RobTop Games. It was released for $1.99 USD on August 13, 2013 for iOS and Android, and for $3.99 USD on December 22, 2014 for Steam. A lite version of the game is available on mobile devices with fewer features, as well as free expansions, Geometry Dash Meltdown, Geometry Dash World and Geometry Dash SubZero, which include exclusive levels.

The player takes the form of different entities with unique mechanics such as a cube, a ball or a UFO. Using one-touch gameplay, the player must try to navigate through a series of interactive obstacles, movement-shifting transporters and behaviour-manipulating portals to reach the end of levels without crashing, all while listening to exciting music along the way.

Trivia

The original name of Geometry Dash during its beta phase was Geometry Jump.
The Geometry Dash Menu Theme was composed by the developer, Robert Topala, accessible from his Newgrounds profile RobTop.
On the main menu, normal or mini icons of any customised combination will travel past randomly. They can be selected, which will destroy them.
- Spiders will only ever be the design that is currently selected in the Icon Kit.
- The unique mini designs for the cube and ball can appear at the normal size for each.
- The icons exclusive to the Steam version of the game can appear for other versions.
- Entering into and exiting out of any of the three primary menus will always result in a cube being the next icon to pass by.
All main levels begin with a regular cube sequence.
Geometry Dash shares similar elements with The Impossible Game in terms of basic level components and cube gameplay mechanics.
The mobile versions of Geometry Dash along with the other games in the series used to have Everyplay integration, a service where users could record and upload videos of gameplay. It was discontinued on October 1, 2018.
