Let me start with a confession: I am terrible at rhythm games. My sense of timing is so bad that I once failed a "Simon Says" toy as a full-grown adult. So when a friend first shoved Geometry Dash in front of me and said "just try it," I laughed. A rhythm-based platformer where one wrong tap sends you back to the very beginning? No, thank you.
Three hours later, I was still at it, eyes locked on the screen, fingers twitching, telling myself "just one more try."
