I love this game, but the lack of... (spoilers inside)

How do you build a game like this, and not include a double jump? Instead, we get this really awkward jump -> dash -> jump thing, which makes being precise painfully annoying since the movement is so quick. I mean, it's not *bad*, but a double jump would have been worlds better. There is a reason 95% of MV's include them. Of course, this is just an opinion, and I'm sure most people don't agree or don't care, but as someone who's been playing platformers for 36 years, I'm sad to see such a great game not include one of my favorite movement abilities. Ah well, maybe in Vernal Edge 2 or something.

I get that, but personally I really enjoy the movement in this game, especially with how many ways you can abuse the different mechanics to even bypass mechanics you don't have yet. (I had no business making it to the slime place when I did, let alone actually finishing it, but the movement mechanics interacted just right that I could barely pull it off.)

I feel they were intentionally avoiding using the default mobility go-to, double jump. They wanted to be creative with incorporate new and different mobility abilities. (< That's a fun two word combo).

I admit, I kind of miss it, but I really enjoy all the things we did get and I love that aerial combat was intended to be used as a platforming mechanic.

Get Air Block, quickly tap block at the height of your regular jump while pressing jump again. You just got Ghetto Double Jump.

Gonna have to give this game a rest, cuz in 12 hours it just gave me straight up carpal tunnel.

There are loads of sequence breaks possible in this game, I got the final compass immediately after getting the 1st, and using broken movement tech I was able to get the end-game movement stuff right after.

That's only because you have Pulse Fly, a late game movement tech. Try turning off the memory and doing the same move.

I think this was made for speed runner. I get that feel anyway.

i do actually completely disagree, it's a nice and interesting take on a pretty basic movement technique.

Even by default you basically get one. You can jump and then dash upward at an angle and then jump out of it. It's pretty much a triple jump.
