Need tips for Chapter 5 C-side

[giga-ganon]

Okay, i'm on chapter 5 C-side, and i think it's the first time where i think the game is a bit unfair! Look :

The timing to get the up-dash wall jump is way too hard to get, cause i have trouble seeing where exactly i am with the orange ball.... tried to look the small white reflection on the ball, but even with that, it doesn't help...

i still have trouble passing the first obstacle, while in every other panels of the whole game, there's always a good progression, once you know how to do something, you can do it easily, but not here

any tips?

A visual cue looks pretty hard for that segment.
You can try counting as soon as you get into the ball, that should be abit more consistent as well as the frame rate is consistent, it'll be a matter of working out the time.

counting isn't really an option cause you really need to be at the right pixel, you could be 0,2 second too late

Hmm another option could be using a audio cue, I'm pretty sure there's a noise when the bubble starts moving which will be a consistent starting point.

Counting should be possible but does need precision. Since the game should be locked to 60fps the timing is 1/60 which is about a 0.0166666666666667 second window to do a frame perfect dash.

That jump took me a while to get consistently. My one tip is to dash earlier rather than later. If you hit the last few pixels of the block, the game will be nice and push your character to the right position. If you're even a few pixels too far to the right you'll miss the jump and die.

For the next super-dash-jump I actually did the opposite. The block is higher up, so if you leave a little bit too late but also hold left you wind up in the right spot to get the big jump.

Overall this was maybe the hardest C-side for me. Even after you get those two jumps there's some nasty stuff. Glhf!

Finally did it! The trick for me was to release every button after the dash and then immediatly push jump, this got me to nail it almost everytime! 774 death on this! The crazy thing is, the later part after the orange bubbles, i nailed it the thrid time i tried the section

Chapter 6 looks menacing but is actually one of the easiest, IMO. It's more of a puzzle than pixel-perfect platforming. Also has fair checkpoints, which was a nice surprise coming from Chapter 7... That one probably took me 2 hours.

Chapter 5 c-side is breaking me right now, that last room, probably getting to the switches at the end one in 50+ tries. That last up-dash jump is such a ♥♥♥♥♥.

Probably my least favorite room in the game... However, once you get to the switches at the end, it really isn't that heard.

[Hoshikudaki]

Found out you can skip the first dash jump, by doing a long jump then a diagonal up dash to get to the second bubble

Beat all the c-sides now. I had 350-ish deaths on chapter 5, 170 on chapter 7, and lucked out around 70 deaths on chapter 8.

You can take it slow by dashing to the closed gate and stand there until the crystal respawns.
