This is the final old megacollab of mine that I'll be showcasing on the channel, and I think it's nice to end it off with Yatagarasu. It stands out from my other projects in a few ways. First of all, I'm not sure if everyone is aware that I hosted this. It's pretty much the only time I hosted a megacollab and let someone else upload it. 2.0 were different times, and it was normal for the verifier to upload the level in-game too. I can't say I don't regret that decision now. Putting so much effort into hosting a megacollab, only for the verifier to get both the video upload and the upload in-game, just isn't really worth it. While hosting a megacollab was never really about some kinda reward for me, the numbers do speak for themselves. The video has 3M views, and would easily be my top video in views. Of course, I agree that the verifier should get the upload on YouTube for taking the time to verify, but I definitely think someone involved creatively should upload in-game. That's what Creator Points are for after all. Doing a similar comparison as I did with the video just now, we can look at this level's downloads. It has 16M downloads in Geometry Dash. To put things into perspective, the most downloaded level on my account, out of over 130 levels, has 6M downloads. This project that I put so much effort into, only to let someone else upload it, easily beats all my levels with over 10M more downloads. With the amount of big levels being produced these days, it's pretty much impossible to garner the amount of hype as Yatagarasu did back in the day. There were way less big megacollabs being made then, and this was very hype. With that in mind, I kinda have to give up on ever hosting anything as popular as this ever again, so of course I regret that it isn't on my account now. Now, onto the actual creating process of this, it's kinda hard for me to recall since it's been so long. It's nearly been 6 years since it was finished, so it's over 6 years since it was started. I remember that it started out with Michigun, Riot, weoweoteo, and I wanting to make a sequel to Bloodbath that was even better. Riot and weoweoteo quickly got inactive, so I picked creators and merged everything with Michigun helping out. I also made both the first and last part, 0:00 to 0:08 and 2:45 to 2:55, including the Yatagarasu art featured in them. These were both completely traced from art I found online, and the process of tracing them was streamed on Twitch for about 100-200 viewers. It's kinda funny how nobody batted an eye about tracing art back then. The community has matured a lot since then as most agree that this is wrong. Of course, I think so too. If the original creator of either art have a problem with their art being in the level, I think we should remove them, but I haven't heard anything since its release. The level took a while to be completed, at least for how levels were made back then, and I remember we went through several creators for some time slots. However, I have to say that I'm quite satisfied with the final lineup and result. It's cool how many classic creators are in this, especially Korean ones. This is probably the biggest megacollab of both Western and Korean creators to date, and I'm not sure that will happen ever again. Many of these creators have already quit many years ago. As for the verification process, this was originally supposed to be verified by Riot for his early involvement in the project, as well as it being a sequel to Bloodbath. However, I don't think he tried much before it was moved onto Surv, who did stream it quite a bit before giving up as well. Finally, TrusTa was next, and after many streams and some nerfs, he verified it. I'm glad it helped him get so much fame and attention because he's a really cool guy and he deserved it for his efforts. For my future megacollab projects, I'll definitely be looking to pick different verifiers for my projects to help them grow. Anyway, thank you for reading (and watching) this. I hope the uploads of my old projects weren't too bad to watch. From now on, we'll be back to normal uploads with new levels. ★ Become a Member of my channel for special perks: https://www.youtube.com/vipringd/join - VIDEO INFO - Recorded by Floppy: https://www.youtube.com/c/Floppyyy Game (version): Geometry Dash (2.0) Level: Yatagarasu by Viprin, LmAnubis, Rustam, Jeyzor, WOOGI1411, Findexi, Rek3dge, weoweoteo, stellameoww, AbstractDark, Giron, Aeidux, xcy7, Vermillion, Zelda, Michigun, Luneth, Hinds, Evasium622, loogiah, csx42, FunnyGame, Riot and TrusTa ID: 28220417 Music: Flawless Wings of Yatagarasu by Gls https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/490479 - OTHER - Discord: https://discord.gg/viprin Twitter: https://twitter.com/vipringd Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/viprin Merchandise: https://viprin.creator-spring.com/ Thumbnail by Erdyuri: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc6dBMhJ-mH-N2h6cC-O0Lg Outro by th31: https://www.youtube.com/user/LolThe1Guy #design
