There are a variety of combinations you can use to improve your run times in 1000 Deaths. Here's a list of movement tips and tricks to enhance your speedruns.

Jump After Dash [Dash + Jump]

There’s a brief moment after you dash, where if you jump while you’re in the air, your jump carries the momentum of the dash. This allows you to move much further than an ordinary dash or airdash ever could.

Hover After Airdash [Jump + Dash]

While you’re in the air after an airdash (jump, then dash), you can hold the jump button to carry yourself further. This can be combined with the exploit mentioned above.

Double Jump with Updash [Jump + Updash]

You can jump, then Updash to gain more height than you could with one or the other.

Dash and Jump Resets After Gravity Flip

After a gravity flip, your dash resets, allowing you to dash again while in the air. Try this on routes with multiple gravity flips!

Coyote Time

When you walk off a ledge, there’s a brief moment where you can still jump and save yourself.

Quick Restart

Press “R” on the keyboard, or the “Select” button on the gamepad, to cause an instant death and respawn.
