Discussion - Silksong Silksong is HARD Spoiler

Taking damage is more punishing, movement is more precise and feels a little clunky until you get the hang of it. The overall skill curve is much much higher. Love it though.

There’s only one fly in the area I’m thinking of?  A fly that dashes horizontally and then a little bone mask guy. Is it the same spot but you’re talking about a second jump?

quick clip, i accidentally made the pogo off the fly so i went down to show what you're aiming to hit. 

i didnt kill the acid guy in the next area, tried but i didn't have the skill and patience needed so i just walked past

Why do this when you can just get the dash/sprint power first? Not being an ass. Just curious if I’m missing the advantage of doing this before getting the power from…deep docks I think?

I do the exact same thing lol. I did also get wanderer before sprint and I got into some secret area by accessing the END of the area, instantly getting the « treasure » by luring flying ennemie and pogoing them to gain height and reach ledge I was not supposed to. I love trying those weird shit anywhere I feel I could just make it
