Bro thanx this is the most clear bg tutorial I’ve ever seen I’m making a level that is a bit more nature ish and I wanna make trees and like a sky in the bg but no other tutorials were as clear and I will definitely be joining the discord for help thanks
Your videos have really made me realize that level creation, even at a high level, can be very simple to do. I always assumed it was very complex, and it really isn't! Thank you for this video, and the playlist "Geometry Dash Tutorials"!
its kinda like with drawing in a way if you look at somthing complex it looks extremely hard but if you watch a youtube video on it showing step by step guides on how to make it, it actually isnt as hard as it looks
Awesome tutorial mate! :) A tip from me to arts general: AVOID HIGHLY using black or white. Using a lighter or darker color than the base color looks MUCH MORE clean. ;) Another tip: Try using scale hack as much as possible for e.g. plain objects. If you have no scale hack, you can save scale hacked objects from others in the Custom-Objects Tab in the editor. My levels btw have a lot of those objects. Name same as here (Halutena). ;)
most objs look grainy asf when scalehacking, and scalehacking an object too much (like 10x scale) would make it as laggy as multiple objects so use scalehack sparingly
@@robianny honestly, I never experienced that scale hacked objects feels same as multiple. Had optimised levels already this way and they can be played now with more fps. Can U tell how U experience that or from where U get that?
@@halutena pocke's low object level can be a good example. as the title suggests, it uses very few objects, but some of them are scaled so much it just messed up with my game and that makes it as laggy as a high object level to me
Press edit group and look at the z layer and z order, this is what determines what objects will be above or below other objects. Try to avoid different objects having the same z layer and order as this causes them to overlap. Z order determines the order of objects on the same z layer, objects on higher z layers will always layer above lower layer objects no matter the z order. The only exceptions are text objects and objects with blending colours which seem to ignore z order and are at the z layer below the one you select for some reason.
Hey I have a question, so when I was setting the move block to 1000 and tapped done It made it into a 100 and it keeps doing it, idk if it's bc I'm on mobile or what
got a new channel btw, this is a really good example video and it helps me out a lot!, at the moment im almost done with a big project, so i hope it doesn't end of terrible near the end, and i want to keep background ideas flowing :)
I am making a doodley like level and i used outlines to make the A4 paper. The outlines kept killling me. I am also a new creator. Can u tell me what i should use to make the lines and stuff?
This issue with people not being able to make custom backgrounds will be solved in 2.2, since there will be almost double the amount of good looking bg’s for any kind of style. And that could bring the high standard power for more creators to appear.
He prob says this later on but use a non moving bg and make different design every time the player moves or just make it stay and u make the background template so ur background has different stuff
What in particular? In the editor press pause then the settings button, turn on the duration lines and effect lines option to add those trigger lines :)
Hmm so you could do that by at the start of the level having a move with x trigger and a move left trigger (so that it moves the bg to the start of the lvl)
Go to the settings. Press more, and then choose any color channel you want for your custom color. After you have your custom color, select all the object of the bg, and edit object, then select the color you want. Or just go watch a video😊
simple, to make the player just use a hide player trigger and design your own character with a custom background. Then make a transition after the cut scene by changing the background and using show player trigger. For the background change, remove the cutscene by using move+alpha or toggle trigger and use alpha or toggle trigger to show the second background after the cutscene.
i honestly have no idea cause im stupid new to gd i have decent skill [insane to easy demon] and really wanna be a creator ig this gave me a lil info on the game thx alot.

put in Shoe textures, it'll make your level epic worthy.
Lol

Nah lol
make sure the shoes are boots
do not use black glow for shadows, use the base color and shift the saturation up and lower the brightness.

I miss those days where you didn’t need a lot of decoration to make a featured level.

Yeah
So true
@@Impactionn allowing more creative freedom is the best thing they can do imo

This is the best out of all tutorials
Tip: you can use black or white lines (depending on bg) to counter blocks and spikes

Sadly i made my level without backround and now i dont know how to make it a higher layer 😢
@@Yesysysgyagyuagaaaw oof
Glad to see another banger video coming out from Incidius, keep it up big man
Thanks for the tutorial again incidius!

Yeah you just have to make some backgrounds and some simple block design and it already looks great!
its kinda like with drawing in a way if you look at somthing complex it looks extremely hard but if you watch a youtube video on it showing step by step guides on how to make it, it actually isnt as hard as it looks
@@monke3403 Yeah, and that way you learn basic fundamentals to make other different drawings!
Oh my god Tysm I had no clue on how ❤❤😭😭life saver literally!

I’m trying to create a simple background but the objects i’m using keep overlapping and going in front or behind eachother
Press edit group and look at the z layer and z order, this is what determines what objects will be above or below other objects. Try to avoid different objects having the same z layer and order as this causes them to overlap.

Moonlight by unzor
@@Eviloloxomg tysm
I understand a lot about effects and backgrounds, thank you for pointing it out!
I love this, now I can make a ketchup bottle spinning with some glow and oversized pulse blocks thx 😂
Hey I have a question, so when I was setting the move block to 1000 and tapped done It made it into a 100 and it keeps doing it, idk if it's bc I'm on mobile or what
Ye i have the same problem
try 999. Maybe its limiting to 3 characters not 100?

3:59, i need the name of that level
Neowise by IlBuzdi
Thanks, now I can finally continue work on a level I'm making
This is awesome, thank you now I can make my custom backgrounds
whats the level called in 7:32
Where is the rectangle and glow block located? I checked everyway but couldn’t find it.
Thanks bro...im good at decorating but bad at bg :)
Thank you now i can make my custom backgrounds
how do i make stuff different color because it keeps changing all the other blocks if i change the same block
Great tutorial!
Thanks bro im making one with it right now
Hey can i have a copyable level of this? With the layers of mountains and stars (I’m struggling and i cant get it to work)
I am making a doodley like level and i used outlines to make the A4 paper. The outlines kept killling me. I am also a new creator. Can u tell me what i should use to make the lines and stuff?

they're all dogshit.
5:03 what if black and white my fav colors and these are the 2 main colors of my level?
And also how can i make the bg cover entire screen but keep the player visible
5:02 what is the song I'd for this song heard it before but can't find it
tysm this is helping
Great tutorial but whenever I die in my level my background like glitches out and idk how to fix it
hmm how does it glitch exactly?
It’s fine now all I had to do was set it to a dif layer
8:44 What's the name of this level?
Shinnen by xVicoGD
@@Incidius Thanks
Does this not work in mobile because I’ve been trying for like an hour and a half today trying to figure this out but it just won’t work.
What are the names of the first level in the background and the one at 4 minutes ?
i followed the steps but i cant see my icon when the plain white bg is infront of me
Background Extra And better than the classic backgrounds
You always the best :3
Bro he doesnt explain how he changes the color of the blocks without changing the other one in the backround
@@Yesysysgyagyuagaaaw he sticks different colors to the blocks he changes color than the blocks that he doesnt.
He prob says this later on but use a non moving bg and make different design every time the player moves or just make it stay and u make the background template so ur background has different stuff
What are both song names in the background?
I do more or less the same when im making a level, but on a different way
Step 1: be Viprin!
Step 2: make custom background
And you’re done!
To make it work for mobile you want it to be 24 blocks wide with the move trigger 9 blocks in
Bro my bg hitting me it works but how do i gonna made the bg did not hit ne
Thank for tutorial!
How do I set it to move for 1000 seconds, it's only letting me set a max of 100, is that a mobile issue?
Try 999 instead. 100 should be enough in most cases anyways
@@Incidius yeah, I realised how dumb of a question that was about an hour after I asked it
@@napoleonicgeese5223 no worries haha
1:14
how do you get the move trigger to be like that
What in particular? In the editor press pause then the settings button, turn on the duration lines and effect lines option to add those trigger lines :)
I have a question, how would I make the background cover my screen at the start of the level instead of having to wait for my icon to reach it?
Hmm so you could do that by at the start of the level having a move with x trigger and a move left trigger (so that it moves the bg to the start of the lvl)
@@Incidius thank you so much. That worked.
how do you make circles actually high quality? every time i scale circles they get blurry.
use squares and rotate them around a group parent at the circle centre. Copy paste and rotate each square to form a ring then fill it in
@@Incidiusthat looks like it'll take a lot of objects though
Thanks for tutorial i am so bad at making bg!
Hello Incidius can you make a tutorial on how to create deco like Cosmic Cyclone/Sonic Wave Infinity it would rlly mean a lot
Just defecate at editor.
The background doesnt move
Watch a video on how to make it move 😊
@@Crazy8cubeno add another move trigger of the backgrounds group id and set it to lock to player x

Bro You just motivated me to make a level
How do I fix the bg disappearing near the edge?
put dont fade and dont enter in the bg's objects
The first part won’t work. Any tips?
The background is still white, what do I do to change it?
Go to the settings. Press more, and then choose any color channel you want for your custom color. After you have your custom color, select all the object of the bg, and edit object, then select the color you want. Or just go watch a video😊
Good Tutorial Incidius
What is the level on the background?
Tysm for the tutorial but it only let's me set the move seconds to 100 does mobile do that?
not sure, I haven't created on mobile in years. Can't you try 999 seconds? 100 seconds should be enough in most cases anyways
@@Incidius yea it works thanks

How to make cutscene like in 4:01 till 4:03
simple, to make the player just use a hide player trigger and design your own character with a custom background. Then make a transition after the cut scene by changing the background and using show player trigger. For the background change, remove the cutscene by using move+alpha or toggle trigger and use alpha or toggle trigger to show the second background after the cutscene.
What is the level 7:35
