Hey everyone!
Looking into the GD Steam problem, will try to get things fixed asap. Just stay calm :)
I've been working with Newgrounds for a long time to improve the music process. They did not have anything to do with the problem on Steam.

To clarify: Newgrounds itself did not have Geometry Dash removed from Steam, so please do not try to blame / punish the website over this.
A group of users from Newgrounds ran a petition to remove GD because they were largely tired of people uploading stolen music to use in GD.
We've been working with RobTop to improve this process and attempt to reduce attempts at song-theft, which has been a huge strain on NG.

I'm probably pulling this out of my ass but maybe it has something to do with music and licensing/copyright?

O_o, another disabled game besides the recently removed games...

I guess the Removed Games Collectors Group requirements will go up pretty soon. xD

A little community digging places blame on Newgrounds initiating copyright infringement calls against Geometry Dash, but I haven't been able to find anything concrete. Still digging.

Bought it during summer or winter sale, can't really remember but after playing it for couple of times, when I look away from the game I get light-headed so had to refund!

Which is weird cause I have it on the iPad & play just fine!
