Difficulty:

  • JoeRopes: 3352/10
  • 101%: 5/10

All Stages

Safe

Notes:

  • Spawn the first Kremling as soon as possible and bounce off him at the peak of his fifth jump. You can opt for the sixth jump to be safer.
  • Scaling the final rope quickly is really tough. Make sure you keep holding left until you're all the way off the rope. Practice lots and don't get discouraged.
  • You can also jump between the two ropes, but it's significantly slower.

Optimal

Notes:

  • To get into the warp barrel with Diddy, you must jump onto a ledge above the screen. To get above the screen, hold down as you jump up and keep it pressed. To jump off, rotate to down left and hop off. Releasing down at any point will push you back onto the screen immediately. Mash Y before the platform to roll immediately.
  • To skip the first rope, roll from the middle of the platform and do a very quick right-left when you're at the same height as the bee. You only need to press right for three frames to dodge the bee, so make it as quick as possible. A slower skip doesn't save any time at all.

101%

Optimal

Notes:

  • Jumping from a standstill is faster then just running or rolling
  • At :29 simply jumping over the klaptraps de-spawns them so they aren't in your way.
  • The roll at :47 under the bee is hard, if it is done unoptimally it barely saves any time.
  • At 1:07 you jump so that the kremlings spawn later and are in a favourable spot to roll threw, otherwise you are likely to get hit.
  • The bonus skip at the end saves minimal time, use at your out caution. The bonus is barely on screen so its hard to know consistently if you got it. Generally for any bonus skip if you heard the bonus open/barrel shot and you have paused the game its probably good.
