Cathedral

Cathedral

View Stats:
Impossible?
The falling ceiling in the Inner Sanctum moves fast enough that you need to do everything 100% perfectly not even half a millisecond off.

The blocks at the beginning should be breakable, but they're not, this literally just requires you to be absolutely 100% perfect.

I have tried everything I can think of, I have found no solution to doing this without being completely perfect in everything I do, please tell me there is a secret I'm missing.

Are you constantly dashing? It only took me a couple of tries.
Uncle Badass Jan 3, 2020 @ 1:20pm 
I am, I press it as much as I can without overshooting a ledge.

I die every time because using the magnet is a very slow process in comparision to the ceiling.
Over 40 attempts now, I had 3k gold on me with 6% gold loss and now I have zero. It's worthless at this point, but it's a good judge of how many times I've died in the same places over and over again.

Hm. Dashing and using the magnet while falling is all I remember.

So in other words, because I am not willing to spend the next week training on this, I will never beat Cathedral.

Great.

There's a full playthrough on youtube somewhere, maybe check that out to see if you're doing anything wrong.
I've done so a couple times when I got stuck.

No, I watched that. I am doing everything absolutely correct.
I know what's different though, I don't know the exact frame to act on, and I never will, so I will never beat this game.

If I stub my toe for even half a second, it's over. That's how extremely specific this part is.
This section does not line up with the rest of the game, this is completely out of place for this game, this is something I'd except to find in a pure platformer.

No, this does not fit Cathedral, there was zero indication that the game was going to take a sharp turn into insane platforming like this.

It might not help but you can watch how I pass this section, having the block destroy at the begining help and having the magnet already equip aswell. 7:00min in the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixr2O-AwRPU&t=501s

Can you post a screenshot of where you're dying? I can only think of one falling ceiling part in that level, and after re-equiping to just the gun+magnet I beat this section easily. Nothing near frame-perfect was required.

There's three magnet "puzzles" in the section I'm thinking about. The second one has three blocks, but you really just need one. I'm wondering if you're trying to move all three to the next position - that could be a point where you could save some time if you need an extra second or two.

It's that point there that kept killing me.

But by the time I move the one block I need, the spikes have reached the platform above me and I cannot escape.

I'm honestly really surprised that you've gotten this far in the game, only to be stopped here. This part is definitely within the difficulty range the game has already demanded, and I say its probably about a 3/10 on that scale. You should seriously watch a video of someone clearing it to see where you could optimize some movements.

This part is absolutely nothing like the rest of the game, this part is from a different like, something like super meat boy.

I've watched this video multiple times, I am doing exactly what he does, but as I am not pixel perfect, I can not beat it.
