Overview
What Is Geometry Dash Zodiac?
Geometry Dash Zodiac is a 2.1 Extreme Demon mega-collaboration hosted and published by Bianox. Built by 20 creators and set to Sphere by Creo, it became one of the defining Top 1 demons of the late 2.1 era.
Zodiac is remembered for two reasons at once. First, it was genuinely one of the hardest rated levels in the game, holding the #1 Demonlist spot for 338 days. Second, its original verification became a major cheating scandal after xander admitted the run was hacked, forcing the community to separate the uploaded verification from Technical's legitimate completion.

Who Verified Zodiac? The Hacking Drama
This is the search intent that defines Zodiac. The short answer is not a single name: xander claimed the original verification, but Technical was the first player to beat Zodiac legitimately. The longer version is why Zodiac still gets discussed years later.
xander's claimed verification
Zodiac was published on January 28, 2019 after xander claimed to verify it. For months, that run was treated as the level's official verification.
The confession
Historical community records document a public dispute around the original claimed verification. The cited record gives the original attribution and context; this page does not treat a summary as a substitute for primary evidence.
Technical's legitimate completion
Historical community records identify Technical's April 2019 completion as the accepted legitimate completion. The source record should be used for the chronology and attribution.
Unnerfed Zodiac
The original unnerfed version was later verified by nebnoob on May 21, 2024 after 179,284 attempts, giving the pre-nerf version its own separate proof point.
Demonlist
When Was Zodiac #1?
Zodiac was placed at #1 on the Demonlist on March 9, 2019, dethroning Bloodlust. It held the top spot for 338 days until Tartarus took over on February 10, 2020. That reign makes Zodiac one of the longest and most important former Top 1 demons in Geometry Dash history.
Its list position has moved down as the game's difficulty ceiling rose, but its historical role is settled: Zodiac was the level that bridged the Bloodlust era and the Tartarus era while forcing the community to treat verification proof more seriously.
ID, Password & Song
Zodiac Level ID, Password and Song
The practical details are simple: Zodiac's level ID is 52374843, and the password is 005875. If you want the real level, copy the ID into Geometry Dash rather than relying on Scratch or browser recreations.
Zodiac uses Sphere by Creo, with song ID 739991. It is also part of a small group of famous former #1 demons tied to Creo's music; Black Blizzard uses Creo's Dimension.
Gameplay
Gameplay: Why Zodiac Is So Hard
Zodiac's difficulty comes from length multiplied by precision. The level is an XL endurance test with constant mode changes, speed changes, gravity flips, and late chokepoints that make a clean full run fragile even after the player understands the route.
Length pressure
Zodiac runs for more than three minutes, so even sections that are individually survivable become brutal after two minutes of successful play.
Mode variety
The route moves through cube, ship, ball, wave, UFO, robot, spider, and dual gameplay with frequent gravity, size, and speed changes.
Second-half choke points
The second half is where the level earns its unbalanced reputation, especially around the infamous 79% frame-perfect orb timing in Pennutoh's wave part.
Endgame nerves
A late 99% green-orb timing can kill the run, and Zodiac even hides a NOICE SAYS HI message for that failure.
Legacy
Legacy: Spectre and Zodiac Week
Zodiac's legacy did not end when Tartarus took #1. It influenced later mega-collab culture, proof standards, and even spiritual follow-ups. It also became a useful comparison point for players measuring the gap between old Top 1 demons and modern list difficulty.
Zodiac Week
In August 2019, four players completed Zodiac within a single week, giving the community the phrase Zodiac Week.
Spectre
Spectre is a spiritual successor hosted by xander, released in Update 2.2, verified by PersonHuman42, and placed high on the Demonlist in November 2024.
Skill inflation
By the mid-2020s Zodiac had hundreds of victors, showing how far top-player consistency and proof standards moved after its original reign.
