If you miss a platform or crash, then you’ll be forced to start the round all over again from the beginning. Players don’t have much time to think about their actions because the obstacles come quickly. If you keep your finger on the up key or spacebar key on the keyboard, it’ll allow you to do a multi-jump to move further in the level. You’re forced to maneuver past obstacles by jumping and flying through them at top speeds.
The second word of the game’s title, “Dash”, is attributed to its fast-paced gameplay. When you slide and crash into something, the effects resemble cubes. All the rewards, obstacles, player icons, and background visuals are made up of different shapes, such as triangles, squares, circles, and rectangles. That is why the game is called “Geometry” Dash. Most of the levels contain geometrical graphics. Otherwise, you’ll have to utilize the up key, down key, spacebar key, and left-click on your keyboard and mouse to control the character. If you’re utilizing a mobile device, you can tap the screen to move past obstacles.
The gameplay is rhythm-based, which means you have to jump and fly past obstacles.
