Slide-Kick doesn't work?

[AveryHyena]

I'm stuck in Emerald Brine - Tern N' Cough, trying to do slide kicks. The first few are fine, but when I get to the part where you have to slide under a wall and kick slightly later, it doesn't work! The tutorial says to press 's' and 'k' at the same time, but the only way I can get the slide-kick to work is if I press kick then slide a millisecond after. And that only leaves half a second kick time, which isn't enough to get to the other side of the wall and kick the block thing. It also won't let me slide then kick.

Tried re-binding the keys (I assume a controller isn't an option, by far the easiest way to play)? Try re-binding to something on a different row, it could be your keyboard (I can't remember the details but some keyboards don't deal with buttons on the same row being pressed simultaneously very well).

You should be able to slide continuously (by holding S) and kick whenever (by pressing K). Pressing kick immediately before slide shouldn't go to the slide-kick animation; in fact, kicks have a short cooldown time where you can't jump, slide or dance.

Also, you say it won't let you slide THEN kick? Do you mean a regular kick right after sliding? There is no cooldown for standing up after sliding; it sounds like something might be wrong with your keyboard.
