Basic Movement Tricks

**Strafing**

Probably the easiest trick in this game, moving diagonally in any direction will let you walk faster than you normally do with just the regular 4 cardinal directions. If you're going to be walking for any period of time, you're most likely going to want to walk diagonally to go faster. Doing this also makes most tricks that traverse wide gaps possible.

**Bookmarker Climbing**

The Bookmarker can be used to gain theoretically infinite height, and clip through ceilings, by utilizing Bookmarker Climbing. Whenever you teleport to a bookmark, you actually teleport to slightly above the position where you set the bookmark. This, by itself, can be used to climb small ledges. Normally, the bookmarker has a cooldown of about 1 second that prevents you from abusing this. However, by quickly opening and closing the Adventure menu with Tab, you can instantly reset the cooldown and set another bookmarker in mid-air.

This is most easily done by pressing left mouse, tab, tab, left mouse as quickly as possible while you have a bookmarker active.

**Rocket Jumping**

An additional benefit to bookmarker teleporting you slightly above the ground, is the potential to clip into solid objects that are above you. Depending on how tall the solid object is, and if you don't get permanently stuck inside the object, the game may attempt to eject you from clipping into it by rocketing you straight into the air. The amount of height you can gain depends on what the object is, and where you attempt to clip into it.

**Wrong Linking**

When used, the Hyperlinker will move you over to any rainbow Targeted Advertising panel, much like the Hookshot in most Legend of Zelda games. While you can only slightly move around while hyperlinking, you can teleport using bookmarks to a previous location, while still hyperlinking to a panel. This can cause you to get dragged into the air in unexpected ways, as the game will still attempt to move you to the hyperlink panel, regardless of where you are. The catch to this, however, is that around 5 seconds after you hyperlink, if you still have not reached the panel, the game will give up in attempting to move you to it and drop you, wherever you may be.

**Air Braking**

While you cannot jump in Broken Reality, the space bar still has some hidden functionality, despite the controls menu saying otherwise. When you're in the air and press space, any vertical momentum you have, upwards or downwards, is instantly cancelled. This can be used to let you cover more horizontal distance while falling, "jump" over small gaps between floors, or cut any rocket jump short so you spend less time falling to your destination.

More examples of these techniques can be seen in the guide for **[Bypassing Like Barriers for Each Area.](https://www.speedrun.com/brokenreality/guide/vldmz)** Also, more area-specific movement techniques, like bookmarking on top of throwable objects in Love Cruise or Geocity, will be covered in a separate guide, due to the finer mechanics of how they work.

**Controller strafing**
*Please note that controller strafing is banned in all main categories, and is given a branch in every category*
Simply plug in a controller and your keyboard and use both at once to make yourself go up to three times as fast.

**Item Hopping**
In both GeoCity and Love Cruise there are interactable objects that you can pick up, the only two examples are the the ingredients in Love Cruise, and the 16oz cans littered all over GeoCity, In order to do this glitch, stand on top of a throwable, look down and click on the throwable. You will be launched decently far into the air, at least the height of most of the buildings in GeoCities. Air-braking while in midair will allow you to travel large distances quickly.

**Infinite Height**
Stand on top of a throwable, look down, and use the bookmarker on the throwable, stand on top of another throwable, pick up the first can and throw it in the air, then while it's still in midair, look down at the second can and click on it with the bookmarker, and it will launch you upwards and out of bounds extremely fast.

- **This has no good use and will likely lead to you needing to restart your game.** -

**High Jumping**
Preform an item hop but use the bookmarker instead of the liker.

This works like item hopping except it launches you much higher, allowing you to reach DTOP in one jump, without stranding you in the void.

**Hyperlinker Storage** Hyperlinker panels do not instantly refresh when you take the hyperlinker off of them, if you mouse over one and then point the mouse at something without collission, such as the skybox, you can still use the hyperlinker as normal, this is best used for getting above Axis Plaza and dropping down to Innernet.

More info can be found in the guide.

Phisherman's Card/Speed-up glitch

**Phisherman's Card Glitch**

Using the Phisherman's credit card before talking to any NPC who can initiate a camera change (example: Furrobotto) can cause the slow-mode from the Phishermans credit card to be permanent, this effect is not removed when walking through loading zones.

Conversely, it can also induce a permanent speed-up (which also persists through loading zones).

This could be useful in any run that already involves doing the nice guys mission, such as %100, or All Missions.

Wrong Warping / Innernet Skip

https://youtu.be/1gV4R_G6h_4
The area portals in Innernet teleport the player long distances. One might think that each portal links to another with hard coded coordinates, but this would cause the transition to look very choppy. Instead, each portal just adds an offset to the player's current position. (It also sometimes changes the player's angle to match the output portal's)

By positioning the player partially within a portal and using the bookmarker, the player is teleported to the bookmark and *then* the area portal's offset is added. Essentially, the offset is added from the bookmark's position, instead of the player's.

This only works for certain portals, however. According to my observations, it only works for pairs of area portals that do not change the player's angle. For instance, here is a rough mockup of one such pair:
