Neutrals: Difference between revisions

'''Neutral Jumps''' are an untaught [[Techniques|technique]] that's can be used to climb even or uneven walls without using any grip strength[[stamina]]. They're are technically not required in the base game, however they're highly recommended to learn for the [[winged golden strawberry]] in [[Forsaken City]].

In order to do a neutral jump, the player cannotmust benot holdinghold the grab button. WhenIf jumpingno awaydirectional frombuttons aare wallheld, [[Madeline]] only moves a short horizontal distance if no directional buttons are held, allowing the player to get back to the wall and jump off of it again. If done quick enough, it's possible to slowly climb a wall without using any stamina. Doing neutral jumps requires learning a specific rhythm which may require a lot ofsome practice to get used to it. It's is highly recommended to practice it in a room with a long, flat wall and no obstacles. (something like the big room in {{ch|6A}})

Neutral jumps become very handy for stamina conservation, as the base game never requires the player to do any. Because of this, a lot of stamina puzzles can be made easier by saving grip strengthstamina with this trick. It's also very useful for speedrunners or people attempting to get the [[golden strawberry]], especially for recovery in case of a mistake or loss of stamina. Neutrals also allow the player to climb walls covered in ice, which appear in [[Core]]{{ch|8|lf=1}} and in a room in [[Farewell]]{{ch|9|lf=1}}.
