Wall Bug

[ing2132]

Has anyone else had problems with persistant clipping through walls when dashing? It's happened on every attempt and seems like a pretty big bug.

Hey ing2132, can you tell us a little more about the problem you're having? Specifically where it's happening, what your system specs are, what it does when you're in the wall - the more details you can give us the better we can help you!

[ing2132]

Sure running a windows vista, on HP p7-1007c 64 bit

the bug is happening on just about every level I try. Dashing near a wall on occasion will either get Viktor stuck, or cause him to rise up through the wall into some invisible room inside it, sometimes with no way to get out except exiting stage. On occasion it has dropped him off the map without a loss of life and required quiting the game to fix. Happened a lot on the first stage Enterence in the area where the first Mysterious artifact is found, and in the electric room maze area. It also happened in the Lost Sewer in the giant corrosize slime monster's room, the miniboss not the Corrupted (which cost me getting the weapon it dropped :/)

I believe it's also happened a few other places but I can't remember specifics. It happens quite regularly.

Last information we need - are you using mouse and keyboard, or a gamepad? And if a gamepad, which one specifically?

[ing2132]

Microsoft Gamepad for Xbox 360 and Windows.

Our team is having trouble reproducing your issue. Can you tell us more specifically what buttons you're pressing when it happens, which direction your dashing, if you're in the air / on the ground?

[ing2132]

hmm It's happened both times. Maybe I should uninstall and reinstall and see if that fixes it

[Omega]

You could try - the best possible solution would be to download a free video capture software like fraps and upload a youtube video for us to see if you're able to.

[ing2132]

I'll play again and see if I can get that

[ing2132]

ok started up the game again and I can easily recreate the bug seemingly on any level. I got screen shots of it now.

I had a bug these days, on 1st level there's a wall to "climb" and when i dashed to avoid an enemy Viktor was pushed by the wall and got up all alone... Dashing... '-'

I've got a problem like this too.
That was in the snow mountain.

I was pass throught a wall, and was "stuck" in fly mode.

That was on one of the last area of the mountain, when there is a kind of win that make viktor fly a little, but there is also floor + ice golem ennemy ect.

I forget all the details, but after some things, i travel in a wall, and i was stuck. After many manipulation, i've get ouf of the wall, but i was "out" of the plan. Can't die by falling to the far left hole of the area, can't continue the game to the right normal area :x...

Well, first thing I got on the first 2 minutes playing this game was finding the glitch. Oh, and I cannot believe how it would be hard to reproduce. Oh well. Let me give you one possible location in Screenshots. It's right in the first area where you start:

Just dash into any wall you shouldn't dash into ...

Aaaaand, up we go ...

We can walk around a bit in the wall above the playable area ...

Mind the Edge though ...

Since you might just fall out of the level ...

This is easily reproducable at ~any~ wall which does not have playable area above.
Btw, if you hit the top border of the playing area, the character just gets stuck.

I must say, this ~big~ bug surely scares me from playing the game further. Allthough I ~do~ dig the art style and believe the world really needs some Metroidvania these days.
So I will probably play around with it again in a few days..

Oh, regarding the system: PC, Win 10, keyboard, dash on right mouse button.

please don't fix this, i use this for speedrunning the game

and now for the serrious note, you can perform this by standing close / against a wall and flicking your mouse from right to right bottom while warping. it is decently consistent and a propper fix would be to have the upper "out of bounds" non solid.

the way to manipulate the glitch is by looking other ways while in the "zip" state (in the wall moving up with a decent speed).

or it would be nice to have a reload to checkpoint in case the zip happenes

here is a preview of the zip used in a beneficial way, also shows a easy kill on the spider queen
