This video was originally meant to be released last year, but I felt really insecure about the feelings I talked about here after a while so shelved it multiple times. It was only in January when I finally filmed this, and in April when I started editing it! But I wanted to really finish this now because even to this day, what I wrote here haunts me. It’s like I never grow from my problems, I just keep breaking down further and further. And I want to show you this video because I want you to know I’m still figuring everything out. I’m not perfect! And maybe you’ll see a little bit of yourself in me and feel less alone in your struggles. Could’ve just made an ordinary ahh BTS video but nooooo my ambition always HAS to be higher ugh

This is the original musical number I wrote and composed for my video/short film “if life was meant with a friend, am i really alive?”. I’ve never written a single song before this point, but I wanted to tell a story in song form for a while now, so I made sure to go as all out as I could on my first! I first started planning the opening theme around November 2023, finished a self-produced version (which you can find here: youtu.be/XLhUpN23MkY) in late January, and now thanks to my team (links below, pls check them out) this is finally a reality! This song and its animation have callbacks to nearly every pigchefer video, since I wanted to create sort of an antithesis to the narrative and themes I’ve set up with all my animations in the past year. If you know who I am and what I’ve become over time, you’ll probably understand how much each lyric and visual beat was built to be incredibly haunting to me. And I hope I did a good job with that :) idk how often I’ll make more songs in the future lol we’ll see

**LYRICS:** I made a life, dreaming was her name She knew but everything there was to her game: Lived up to her eighties, making nothing but memories, So the world sees better days But he’s poor and he’s lazy Their ambitions end up empty She died early, never surely, feeling gay Most I’m afraid, spend their lives in the shade Yet life still goes on the same…
‘Cause the greatest part of life, And what makes us all alike Isn’t money, being sunny, or dreams~… Yes – everyone’s a someone, ‘Cause a friend is all they need!—…
Friends are the heads that we lean on Friends are when we can depend Friends are the push we need to be who we believe, And who will be there, ‘til the end... – And with a friend, boy you can Make the world seem twice as free And you can scream your wildest reveries And who you are feels nothing quite like a dream And if your heart’s about to drown, Turn around, you’re bound to find, you got me! But every life you’re left behind, I’ll find you–
Listening to every silly thing, and hoping time just passes by Looking down at who you think you knew, and wond’ring if you’re not alive And after every boring day, you’ll walk alone soaked in the rain But come the time you’re at your door, comes even more for work and pain You’ll have no purpose, and no worth is, Gonna free you up from the surface With no cents to pay, and no folks to aid And in a decade’s time, you’ll still be the same The same flaws you own, the same yes and no’s, The same woe they know, for nothing but xo, And it’s all, ‘cause you chose You’d be better off alone!~…
…so go~, live your life making stories, And maybe, chase a few dreams To say that one day, when you’re old and gray, You’ve truly made people believe… But believing’s merely fantasy If you don’t get out there, it’s just not meant to be Life’s all but over, if you don’t agree~… A friend is all you need~.

While I was editing the last few seconds of this video, the person I dedicated this video to said to me, "Thank you so much for existing". And if I wasn't in the middle of editing the video on a time crunch, I think I would've cried so so hard. I've always been so used to assuming that the people surrounding me wouldn't feel a difference without me, and to finally feel like I actually mean something to someone, just hits harder than anything in the world. If she is reading this, thank you for being the most amazing friend ever! ❤️

I could be using this description to pat myself on the back for the 124k attempts I spent, the dedication, the sheer difficulty of the level. But I won’t. What I will say though is that this level, unlike any other level, is so so mentality heavy. It has changed the entire way I view the world, and to that I am both grateful and regretful for. I might get to that in a different video (update: I did! link above pls watch it, it took a very long time to animate ^^). The best way to beat this is confidence, and I didn’t understand that until months after I got 48. This was quite fun at times and I’m very happy I finally beat it after a year!!
Attempts: 124,887 (I honestly thought it was 150k lo)
Link to the “song”: youtu.be/jiY0cM9zesoPassion verified! (my xo inspired level)pigchefer2021-01-15 | The xo on mobile guy makes an xo-inspired level. Isn't that something? And that is precisely what I just did. I'm very proud of how this turned out, but you may have a ton of questions in your mind about this level. In the following paragraphs, I will explain some of these.
How is this related to xo? It certainly doesn't look like it, and I understand. When I had the idea for this level, I never intended for it to be xo-inspired. When I did start to build the layout, I started to use xo as a guide. I didn't want to remake the level; I wanted to use it to guide me for the direction I was to take. I thought what was going through KrmaL’s mind when he chose the gameplay and deco style. And then I applied it to this song. Both xo and this song are break-up songs, so how did KrmaL approach this? It turns out that xo’s song is pretty monotonous which shows with the grayscale 1.0 style. The song is also kind of stringy, and you can see he applied that with the gameplay by the constant swinging up and down of the icon. Now take a look at this song, which I think is much smoother and more atmospheric than xo. Taking that in mind, I did the opposite of what KrmaL did: use Clutterfunk (1.4) style with a lot of color, and make the gameplay quite linear. It seems like how a paradox takes completely opposite ideas and makes sense somehow. This is kind of what I did: take the opposite of xo's style but convey the same meaning. You may be thinking that arrow and My Bae are better examples of xo-inspired, but they only took what xo did and revamped it. What I did was take what I think xo's idea is, and convey the same idea with a different style.
I do want to stress, though, that this is an original level which I made most, if not all, the ideas of! You can say it's one of the xo-inspired levels and group it with xo, arrow, and My Bae, but please do not treat it like it's an xo remake because it is NOT.
About the song, I think it’s perfect for this level! Probably when I first heard this song, I had the idea for the level. Not just some vague idea; I had a very clear idea of what I wanted to do for both the gameplay and decoration. It's honestly like this song was made to be in this level, which is why I really wanted to use it. I'm not a big fan of NONG levels, and I know KrmaL isn't as well, but there is literally no other song that can bring about my idea for this level than the one I chose. I don't want to be known as some NONG creator in the future, so this will probably be the only level where I use an NONG song. Also I really like this song so it made me all the more excited to make this level.
About the level: As I have said, I had this idea probably ever since I've heard the song. That was at least 9 months ago. (This is why the level is called Passion, because it is a passion project of mine.) And ever since then, whenever the song popped up on the radio or on someone's running playlist on Spotify, I would think of my idea for the level. It wasn't until I remembered that I had Geometry Dash on Steam, that I started to build the level. My idea for the level was to combine Clutterfunk's style (the last cube of Clutterfunk) and an interpretation of xo. I think it turned out great! I kept building and building, and every time I finished a part, I was very satisfied. I tried to keep the 1.4 aesthetic there, but at the same time, create a very vivid environment for today's standards. I know I put a ton of blocks that weren't there during 1.4, but the main idea is that in 1.3 and 1.4, there were a bunch of new items to add color to the level (like pulsing objects and the like), and that's what I tried to base it off of. The gameplay is the last Clutterfunk cube, the one at like 80% I think, and the ship motif, which you should recognize.
It is interesting to note that I did not tell anyone of the creation of this level, kind of like how I only told like 10 people that I was going to attempt xo on mobile. There are a few reasons for this. The first is that people would probably be super surprised that the xo on mobile guy is making an xo-inspired level, and I would like to see some reactions. Also, I think that the opinions would improve if it was a surprise. The last reason is that I want to see how making a level, without anyone pestering about the condition of the level, would go. If I did show it before release, it could go two ways: people would love it and I would be so caught up in the attention I was getting which could hinder the quality, or people would hate it and I would be discouraged and not want to continue. Jayuff said in his pastebin that it is more enjoyable to create without listening to anyone, than otherwise. Reading Jayuff's words wasn't a direct cause, but it encouraged me to keep going.
This is dedicated to notlsa. I hope he/she likes what I made!
