There is a glitch that sometimes disables the shift, if you run on a edge you can lose your double jump but if its a triple pad you just lose your triple jump and gain a double jump. make sure you are landing on the pad right!
"Why does Bubsy 3D use tank controls?" "To create complexity!"
Yeah that's not really an answer. It's especially ironic considering this game is so simple, but artificial complexity like that doesn't really serve any purpose anyway.
I discovered a wall noclip trick where if you double jump off certain ledges into certain corners you can climb up walls to the top of them. VERY nice trick. I've only been able to replica it twice in 2 different spots.
23.98642! Very strong run. At first I doubted that 23 was possible with these strats but I executed this run very well. If someone beats this I will be very impressed.
I believe that there are about .2 seconds to be saved at the second to last checkpoint if you do the climb absolutely perfectly, and a faster strat might be possible at the staircase section near the beginning.
I also found that it is possible to jump from the last blue platform in the section where you jump around the 3 walls and go directly to the next checkpoint, but I think its about .1 slower than the normal route.
Here's a list of the most important techniques for getting a fast time:
1. Diagonal Running - By holding down 2 movement keys (such as W and A), you will move diagonally about 45% faster than you move going forward normally. This is used throughout basically the entire run except for the climbing section near the beginning.
2. Short Double Jumping - Press shift to double jump right after you jump normally to do a jump that is slightly higher than a normal jump but not as high as a full double jump. This is used throughout the entire climbing section, the staircase section after it, and the difficult movement at the second to last checkpoint.
3. Respawn Teleport - At the very beginning, run directly into the lava and then as soon as you respawn above the first platform, jump and then double jump to reach the top of the first checkpoint.
4. Edge Jumping - If the lower half of your character runs into the edge of a platform while you are moving upwards, you are still able to jump off of it, however it will not refresh your double jump (unless you edge jump off a triple jump platform). This is used to do the small jumps during the staircase section, and also used at the very last triple jump platform to save a small amount of time. This bug is very annoying during the climbing section because if you accidentally edge jump, you will not be able to double jump to the next platform. To avoid this, wait until you are falling down to hit the platform. In my WR, I do a very short jump and hit the platform as soon as I start falling.

some on should put this on speedrun.com
I would love to be the one to do that, but I don't know how.
if i do it ill post it in a comment
Please do.
help the triple jump, i dont know how to do it
You press space, then shift for the double jump, then you press shift again to tripple jump! good luck!
ohh alright! i tried doing that but it didnt really work so i guess my shift is broken?

okay! thank you!
Your welcome!
But I'm not jumping high enough, even with triple jump :sad:
34 seconds. On my way to track pad OFFICAL WR of thirty seconds/
4:28.6 on my first try is that good
edit: yes i will keep updating this
2:15.4 on my second try
1:56.4 on my third try
1:26.8 on my 4th try
to get faster time, learn the lava skip.
good idea
56.7 seconds!
52.8
Why are jump and double jump two different buttons?
TO CREATE COMPLEXITY!

The dev probably was limited by something, maybe binding both to the same button was causing issues
my best time so far
rlly fun and simple

why is there no restart button?!
press T
34.65
not bad
world record time nebver done before lik ein ever of the history of ever
W
slayyyy
43.21. getting closer to sub 40
just 43 now
3:56.90828 wow
got a 33.88 without any checkpoint except the first
Current record for a 0% run is around 1:22, so if you have video evidence of the run, you might just snatch it
nope, you only need the very first checkpoint
you actually only need 2 checkpoints, the very first, and the second to last
all others can be skipped using proper strats
I just got 37.63. Every run I do now is a sub 40, I discovered a cool trick where you can glitch inside a wall and make your run faster.
Now 36.23.
35.54!
got sub 50. not much looking at the other runs but it's a start

Nice run, i will try and beat it as soon as possible, But i just got a new Keyboard
So i still have to get used to it.
bruh. best time is half of mine :|
dang i got 58 seconds
Nice!
GGS
how the hell
WHAT HELLO HOW DID YOU SKIP AT THE START???? /gen
if you walk into the lava and then time a jump right when you respawn you will be high enough to double jump to the top
ooh! man, speedrun strats are always so cool :0
world record
the recording didn't work tho
27.24847 now
Wow from 15 mins i got like my first record in like 2 hours
How did you manage to get 20 sec. My route feels pretty optimal already
Done on a school computer with no mouse
i already did a world record with trackpad and its 30 secs and yes its pretty hard cuz there are stratiegies
and stuff
This was after like 5 min so I'm not trying super hard.
oh. same
probably the best im gonna get
Nice,
my best
I set the PR for 41.46784, and I'm planning a route for the World Record.
Nice,
New world record
new record?
well this is my fastest run so yes u got the record btw u shouldve token a full screenshot bcs u can easily edit it tbh
and im pretty sure thats edited because u see the 0:27.046 there cant be 3 letter at the end there is like 5 or 6 numbers
nice
world record on track pad {pain}
