Why it worked
The video uses a high-urgency hook and a direct, humble request for engagement, leveraging the 'copy link' mechanic which is known to boost TikTok algorithm performance.
Summary
The creator introduces their new song, a mashup of Geometry Dash and Crystal Castles, and asks viewers to copy the link to help it go viral. The video uses a simple text-overlay format over a looping background.

Product placement
Crystal after crystal (the song) ACTS: it is the subject of the video, the creator identifies themselves as the artist, and the video is a promotional effort to make the song go viral. Removing the song would leave the video with no purpose.
