The Bucket
I'm wanting to beat the game 50 times, beaten it a few times and I can get to the bucket in like 25-30 minutes and the ice mountain/antenna in like 5-10 minutes but the bucket takes my like 30-45 minutes, does anybody know an efficient way to climb the bucket?

Do a low hop, just enough to reach the bucket, for a gentle grab.

Straight up this has made my bucket experience way easier, added risk with the balance of a quicker way up as long as no mistakes are made (example: Freaking out, swinging left and grabbing snake, etc)

Don't freak out, ever. Let the hammer fall onto the bucket along with yourself, don't force it.

Just like the other obstacles you have faced. Each time it gets easier to do.

Heh. Not this one. Not for me.

Every time I get to the Bucket, it's a total dice roll how well I do. Occasionally I nail it on the first try. Sometimes I get stuck on it for several minutes. Sometimes I can't do it AT ALL, I give up and quit the game, then eight hours later I start the game up again, give it another try, and BAM, I do it perfectly. And this is from a guy who's got 160 wins and a personal best time of under six minutes. No idea what it is about this one spot in the game.

Gesundheit. :)

But yes. 50 wins gets an achievement and also a gold cauldron.
