The story takes place on Cubearth, a planet populated with ''Geometry Dash'' icons. In Topalia City, an unnamed green square[[note]]listed as "???" in the credits and described as "some random, unknown guy" in character teasers[[/note]] (voiced by GD Colon) and Norcda Childa (AsHimself) stumble across a flyer advertising the 2.1 Awards. The two follow the flyer to the [=GeoStorm=] Theater, which leads into the actual out-of-universe awards show it was released with.

!! Prelude provides examples of:
* BlandNameProduct: Norcda's phone has an app titled "[=CubeGram=]", a version of Instagram. Meanwhile, Twitter and Facebook appear as simply "T" and "F" and have mostly different logos with the same color scheme as their real counterparts.
* CameoCluster: Most speaking roles in the animation are from prominent ''Geometry Dash'' community members, with many appearing as themselves. The exception is the game's developer [=RobTop=], who is voiced by Samifying.
* ComicalOverreacting: After [=TrusTa=] tosses away the flyer for the 2.1 awards, there's an overtly dramatic shot of the one handing them out bursting into tears and screaming in agony.
* TheFaceOfTheSun: A shot of Cubearth from space shows the sun with a realistic face staring at the camera.
* FightUnscene: PlayedForLaughs. The green cube escapes being taken away by police in an instant, just reappearing next to Norcda as he starts walking into the theater acting as if nothing much happened (although he appears bruised). As they head off, one of the police is rolled across the room on a stretcher that starts heading off uncontrollably after the person pushing it trips.
* FreezeFrameBonus: [=RobTop=]'s face changes for a split second when he starts panicking as the 2.1 Awards audience starts rushing at him.
* PrecisionFStrike: At the end, when one cube reaches a RageBreakingPoint over the fake reveal for Update 2.2:
-> '''Mad Cube''': You know what? I knew it, I knew it was another fucking troll! FUCK! I can't take it anymore.
* SelfDeprecation: The green cube calls Geometry Dash "that game that was famous back in 2014" and says he "didn't know [it] was still alive".
* ShoutOut:
** The [=GeoStorm=] Theater is named after the Geometry Dash player clan [=GeoStorm=].
** One poster in the theater has a picture of Hungry Humphrey from the Geometry Dash custom level of the same name.
** Another poster advertises rafer's own custom level In Silico.
* TransformationSequence: In order to get to the theater in time, Norcda and the green cube go through one where they dramatically gain giant legs. This is joined by an ActivationPhrase: "SUPER EXTRA SHINY SPATIAL LEG TRANSFORMATION!"
* WorldShapes: Cubearth, as its name implies, is shaped like a cube. [[WeirdSun Its sun is cube-shaped as well]].
