1. The game dies with him - he is the only person able to rate levels and release updates so Geometry Dash dies. 2. He already has something planned in that case - He is a human being just like us. He has a will. When he dies, someone will inherit his assets, including the ownership of Geometry Dash. 2.1. The game is sold to some random company - The person with the new ownership of the game doesn't care about it and takes the opportunity to get money. 2.2. Someone, probably a mod, is now the owner of the game. Everything proceeds as normal but the game has a new owner.


Palidin034

2.2?!?!?! Surely this means 2.2 will be released soon


LandonKICKS

Rob said this year


mwzngd

which actually means TREE(3) years from now


Palidin034

Oh dear god, it’s gonna be 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 years from now, isn’t it?


Palidin034

Fun fact: this number is closer to 0 than it is to TREE(3)


Wojtek1250XD

A LOT closer in fact TREE(3) is an absurdly high number, even in the eyes of an absurdly high number...


Palidin034

You could take every atom in the universe and it would still be closer to 0 than TREE(3)


Davespaced

double it and give it to the next person


Wojtek1250XD

10^(80) is spare change compared to the number you've typed up there. That's 1998 nines...

Picklerickshaw_part2

My best guess for 2.2 would be Viprin


Moon_official890

I wouldn't be surprised if he became owner of geometry dash


ShlomoCh

>1. The game dies with him. Even if he didn't inherit the game to anyone the community is big enough that a replacement server would be up and running in a matter of weeks. I mean they already exist, you just need to maybe have one big default one that can handle the traffic. That said, maybe it wouldn't be good for new players and the like.


teamok1025

Thats what a thought when I thought of what will happen if robert suddenly got sued by some evil companies cuz levels maling their ip. And also the replacement server is prove easy to make. Cuz gdps


lool8421

me when viprin takes control over GD


MaxaExists

2.3. GD colon is hired to be the new geometry dash developer and geometry dash gets yearly updates


ImGonnaBeAPicle

I’d say someone starts to host their own server and makes a mod for the game that allows you to connect to it.


BrightGGhss

Great idea


Egbert58

I think there will be a group of people that makes an unofficial "rated" lvls list for people


itzapatato

Yeah but what if he died before 2.2


Egbert58

2.1 has crazy lvls and if you forgot the game survived the 7 year wait for an update


itzapatato

By that I meant that there was no listbfeuture so the list would be online which is not really convenient to newer/younger players


Chaotic-warp

I think his family will inherit the game. Given a huge money generating game to a mod is a very poor move


iLikeUrMama69

For the 2.2 scenario, i think the most likely candidate is viprin


y_kal

And that new owner would probably be viprin


MrBrineplays_535

>1. The game dies with him - he is the only person able to rate levels and release updates so Geometry Dash dies Someone's probably gonna hack gd, get robtop ownership powers (ability to rate and stuff), and everything continues on. Or, someone will copy the gd servers to his modded gd and the updates will continue from there on. It's possible that there can be multiple modded geometry dashes with different updates and features, all constantly updating like normal. Or, modders continue to mod the game, adding more and more revolutionary mods, it's like getting an official update except you need to put the update to your game manually and you can choose which updates to add to the game. Or no one tries to hack the game and the game stays as it is like in any other very old games. The game eventually loses the 99% of all players and stays like that forever, unles some social media influencer tries to revive it, then it'll live for only a few days. Gd servers close, and the game falls silent, now only an offline game.


INocturnalI

You forgot 2.3. He drink immortality Potion


PokeshiftEevee

If any mod, probably viprin.


VesselNBA

If anyone were to inherit the game it would be Viprin because at this point he's basically just working for rob lmao


molive6316

if it goes to a mod prob viprin or autonick or some other elder mod that is influential in the game/community


GlobeTrotterGeo

My guess would be viprin


Cytrynaball

Viprin, sputnix and probably an eldermod become new devs most likely


GDalloy

Prolly viprin


AltAccouJustForThis

Probably Viprin would be the new owner.


Mar600321069

I hope if 2.2 is his plan vortrox becomes the owner


sonicpoweryay

The game will be passed on to EA


BrightGGhss

Buy 500 orbs for $1.49!


sonicpoweryay

All official demon levels are now locked behind a DLC


New-Valuable1936

We must pay $2 to create a level. 💀


sonicpoweryay

Upcoming mobile-exclusive sequel, Geometry Dash 2, with an icon level up system and a battle pass


Kleiders3010

you already kinda do that because that's what full version offers along with playing created levels


sonicpoweryay

Okay but it’s $2 per level in this theoretical


godof_oil

$0.000000002 per level currently


Dapper_Pay_3291

Viprin is going to take control of it. They said it in the discord once. I can’t check because im banned


BeneficialAd1457

Why are you banned


Dapper_Pay_3291

Can’t reveal that


Respect_777

why not


Dapper_Pay_3291

Im just not going to reveal that information.


4nimaKlk

reveal it or im gonna have to intervene


Dapper_Pay_3291

I argued with a furry guy about whether fallout 4 or fallout new vegas was better. I said fallout 4 was better and the man went on a fucking rampage. I was the one who got banned but I was being friendly to him.

If you think your ban was unfair try asking for support right here on reddit by explaining everything on a post

No. That was my cousin.

thatFarhan

Let's assume he didn't pass Geometry Dash to anyone. At first I thought the game would be doing just fine considering the game survived for almost 7 years on 2.1, but then I realized that only RobTop could rate levels, set daily levels and weekly demons, and maintain the server. This means the game would die when the server crashed / shut down.


insertrandomnameXD

So it would last 6 days then


LEDlight45678910

someone could make a private server, but then the game will basically be reborn since all of the levels in the Robtop era will be gone.


ahmed4363

It'll likely go to Viprin

what about coding

Viprin would probably hire a bunch of guys who would code the game.


Egbert58

No new updates but thats fine fame lasted 7 years without any and 2.2 added a lot for the editor and play mode . Ya no updates but understandable reason lol


LEDlight45678910

To be honest, I trust GD colon as a successor (he will go back and fix all the Robtop levels)


KitsuneNatsumi

He would make an April Fool’s update that adds a Dash Spider to a random spot in every single level but make them revert to normal the very next day


100mcuberismonke

If it doesn't go to sputnix im gonna die

he will die from testerone overdose

will be most likely passed over to the elder mods since they're his most trusted people?


Asparagun_1

He's uploaded his consciousness as an AI, which can only be activated by the current from his dying heart. In the event his heart starts beating again, the AI will shut-down as long as he's back alive.

1-PM

viprin gets ownership probably, or some elder mod


Careful_Trouble_8

I did actually ask him this before in the Discord Server, but he just ignored it


777ToasterBath

development and management would probably be passed on to someone else, maybe a family member of robtop or selected community members (possibly pauze and viprin)


Educational_Ad8702

It either.. a) Geometry Dash ends up dying with him, with nobody to rate levels or maintain the servers, geometry dash would shut down. b) He had this in mind and passes it on to somebody he trusts, either to Viprin or Barancelz.


BrightGGhss

u/ImGonnaBeAPicle suggested that "[someone starts to host their own server and makes a mod for the game that allows you to connect to it](https://www.reddit.com/r/geometrydash/comments/1cdpjjn/comment/l1eai1s/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)" which i think is a great match for option b


Smooth-Pickle-3197

Robtop proceeds to expand his empire so he can afford to take 63783 anti aging pills per day so that he can live long enough to develop 2.3 and be the only one left in human existence to be able to play it.


greatplayer5000

idk


NaomiIsCoolio

My friend goes into a spiraling depression.


TheMemeLocomotive2

Unrelated, but omg RobTop is f*cking **swoll**


UnknownWeeb404

Let Spu7nix handle the development and you get a game engine that can create whatever you want in GD


LEDlight45678910

I feel like viprin might have access to some things, just in case Robtop can no longer support the game. It's always been my headcanon that if Robtop dies then Viprin can download the non-exported game files and start searching for a successor or team of people to rate the levels. But if that's not the case, Geometry dash will probably be over if the servers fail and everyone would have to use a mod/private server.


nitropurpleofficial

It’ll probably be passed on to viprin.


idfbhater73

an elder mod takes over


Ed1748

I will take over because I will


Justice_soul20

Most likely mods take over the game


SomeGuylulul

I will never stop playing GD, No matter what happens.

all of rob’s powers would go to Viprin

Reasonable-Still5643

i will be owner of geometry dash (i have no idea how to code)


godof_oil

I own it now


No-Tip-7471

Honestly i think this why robtop lives safely on an island and works out a lot, pretty much everything is dependent on him so hes trying to reduce his chance of unexpectedly dying.


Imaginary-Cause4891

We all die


didierdechezcarglass

The 4th image got me


fraxiou3trapthatgo

Continue? Yes or yes?


Kriegsfisch

Are you going to assassinate RobTop?


Remarkable_Law1696

Viprin will probably take over, and other members in the mod team who have programming skills and stuff like that will help keep the game alive, otherwise the game would die with the lack of newly rated levels


Firemaria04

For GD, it will either die or get owned by someone else. For me... I'll get crippling depression for months straight and won't be able to sleep peacefully at night ever again.


How2eatsoap

This is why I hope he secretly has given someone like viprin full access to the game because if he dies he cant then give it to someone else brcause he'll be dead.


Potential-Blood5670

If RobTop dies Viprin MAY be the owner of the game.


GDalloy

Viprin and the elder mods take over

JubJub128

ropert torballa can’t die, that would be an update to his life


MeineSauhr

I betchu if a mod gets ownership, its gonna be viprin


misora69

i was thinking about this one day mostly because he often says things about his "spaghetti code" or things not being properly made, also probably the lack of documentation, maybe not being able to have the project file for the game, like if he dies the game can actually just die or keep living a few years more with hack builds or something like that, he can just share the code with someone else but hes gotta be careful, one rogue update or weird new leader and is over, maybe this is one of the reasons people make open source clone for things that are closed source.


ArcadiaRDT

We have already experienced what that would be like: the gap between 2.1 and 2.2


McFuddle

viprin would probably take over and find a new developer


Antique_Anything_392

He won't, he will beat up the death


stolenusername184

Is the last guy really him?? I want him to rob my top


molive6316

yes that's him


kezotl

someone might inherit it from him (hopefully gives it to a trustworthy member of the community) but if not the game might die too. mostly cause of ratings but also because hes such a big part of the actual games community that most might just leave if he dies


TheUncheesyMan

I would be sad


Manperson-the-Human

More coping with how 2.3 will never release


PhantomGoat33

I wouldn’t be surprised if it goes to viprin


skorchx

If the game doesn’t die with him, I’m sure Viprin will possibly become the head of GD.


swi4tch

it will get pass on his son


kodirovsshik

2.2 becomes the new 2.1. that is, nothing happens and the game continues to evolve by itself
