need help with core-c

Alright let me start by saying i love this game. its been one of my favorite games ever. I was shocked that the story was so good, usual games with this design the story is more of a throw away and the gameplay design was amazing

now enough gushing. as much as i like the mechanics of this game the only issue i have with it is when you start C-side you learn that dash jump technique thing. Whenever i try to do the jump i usually end up jumping too high hitting the spikes. I think i made it past the first screen out of sheer dumb luck, so i dont know how to do the jump and im on the last screen. I dont really know how to do the jump and i dont want to start the level over to figure it out.

so i ask anyone who is reading, who beat C-side core, how do i do that damn jump.

It may help to think of it as a dash while crouching, immediately followed by a jump, which should send you on a fast, long, flat arc. The directions say to dash down-right but it works just the same from a still crouch. This approach should give you a little time to prepare each individual jump, though I still found it easiest to do those parts of 8C as one continuous string of moves.

Also, while it doesn't apply in Core, if you hold onto the jump for just the barest moment after the dash, you'll regain the dash from touching the ground while still keeping the momentum of the hyper, which can be used to get a little extra distance for some speedrunning tricks.

You're close to doing the right thing. If you are ducking (holding down) when you start that jump, it will give you less vertical and more horizontal distance. This is the jump you want for that level.

So, at the edge:
Hold down-right. Do the Dash+Jump. Importantly, hold the jump button as you fly through the air. Intiiate another down-right-dash-jump as soon as you hit the disappearing platform. At that point you should be good.
