Hello speedrunners (or should I say hello, wesen?) Doesn't seem like there are any other active speedrunners. I'm looking to start speedruning, but I can't seem to do the very basic left-right skip. You can see in my VOD how I struggle with that. How do I do that?
Hi,
the trick is to turn around without taking a step to the left. It's harder in the PS1 version because of input delay, I would recommend to do it like this:
- Press Square to do the Spin Attack
- Turn left while spinning (This way you are guaranteed to not walk to the left)
- Jump (to cancel the spin) and turn right again in air
This is also what I did to skip the box in the first level.
You might also want to take a look at the TAS which shows some tricks that are not possible in the PC version:
Good luck with your speedruns.
btw: The "Skip Obstacle Glitch" heading is a link to a separate page: https://kb.speeddemosarchive.com/Pink_Panther:_Pinkadelic_Pursuit/Game_Mechanics_and_Glitches/Skip_Obstacle_Glitch
Thanks, I'll try doing it with spinning. I tried doing the skip couple hours ago and I managed to do it by mashing right, and slightly pressing left when turning right and I managed to do it that way but it's pretty slow (takes me 3-5 seconds to skip). Also, it felt like I would break my fingers doing it with d-pad so I had to re-map left and right to R1 and L1 to even do that :D
And thanks for the link. Somehow I didn't find these before :/
I'm going to use this same thread to not flood the forum.
For some reason I can't use the hidden windows in the Gangsters level. I'm trying to mash Triangle with window open/closed, on ground/mid -air but doesn't seem like it's working.
Also update on the clipping, for some it's near impossible for me to clip to the left, because I can't turn right without moving (which is sad, because it means I cannot do the Dinosaur skip, I can do Stone Age with spinning, but I can't spin in overworld, so no Dino skip :(
Anyway, I think I'll try doing a full any% run tomorrow (hoping for a sub 30 but probably not gonna get it first try, especially if I can't do hidden windows)
Hello, so somehow I managed to softlock myself at the Greenhouse :DDD Do you know what might cause this? I'm attaching my stream highlight so you could watch how I'm stuck.
I have seen this glitch once in the PC version (in front of "The Construction Site, Part I") but it was fixed when I entered and exited the level. I don't know what causes it though.
