== Dash Tech ==

Dash Tech refers to techs that require a dash to use, and tend to be simple yet useful. Most dash tech can be Extended, meaning you regain a dash by touching the ground for longer; or Reversed, meaning you dash in one direction but launch in the other direction. Reversing a tech is a handy way to Extend it without much ground room, and as such, Reversed + Extended tech is only referred to as Reversed.

Reversing a tech is a handy way to Extend it without much ground room, and as such, Reversed + Extended tech is only referred to as Reversed, as reversed techs grant the same benefits as extended versions.

Many of the Dash Techs can be fine-tuned with the duration that the Jump button is held. The longer it is held, the higher the tech will go and the longer Madeline will stay in the air. Very short hops are known as Bunnyhops, while holding the button down as long as possible is a Full Jump.

Line 31:

Reversed: Dash in one direction, but press the opposite direction (after the Dash) before Jumping. Madeline will be launched in the opposite direction.

Variant - Mid-Air Hyper: See '''Demohyper''' below.

Variant - Hyper Hop: A Hyper followed by a Bunnyhop is known as a Hyper Hop, and will give a large speed boost compared to a regular Hyper. To perform a Hyper Hop, do a Hyper with the quickest and shortest Jump you can, then a full-length Jump after hitting the ground again.

== Dashless Tech ==

Dashless Tech refers to techs that don't need a dash to use, and tend to be more complex. Unlike the dashing variants, these cannot be extended or reversed.

=== Fastfalling (Fastfall) ===

One of the simplest techs to perform, Fastfalling will (you guessed it) make Madeline fall faster. Air friction will remain the same. To fastfall, hold Down while in mid-air~~. This has little practical use outside of speedrunning and a few rooms in Farewell~~.

=== Bunnyhop (Bhop) ===

A Bunnyhop is little more than hitting the jump button for as little time as possible. Repeated ~~bhops~~ are slightly faster than normal walking, and can be added to some dash techs to increase speed.

=== Cornerkick ===

Line 84:

Line 83:

If crouching before a Jump, Madeline will remain crouched while jumping; and can climb while still being crouched. To do this, hold Crouch, then Jump while holding Crouch. You can throw a Grab into the mix and climbjump at the same time.

=== Neutral ===

=== Neutral Jump (Neutral) ===

{{Main|Neutrals}}Neutrals are one of the most fundamental dashless techs, used in a variety of base game and modded maps. They are moderately hard to learn, but easier to master. To do a neutral, kick off a wall ''without'' holding a direction, then immediately hold a direction towards the wall; repeat until the wall is climbed.

Line 90:

Line 89:

=== 5 Jump ===

5 Jumps use two climbjumps - one after the other - to clear 5 tiles in a single jump. To do a 5 Jump, climbjump off a wall (straight up), and as you hit/grab onto the wall again, climbjump and move left or right.

Variant - 6 Jump: See '''Cornerboost''' below.

=== Dreadcorner ===

A Dreadcorner refers to the corner of terrain ~~that has~~ spikes on it. This is ~~actually~~ safe to jump ~~on,~~ ~~yet~~ ~~pixel perfect~~. To ~~play~~ it ~~safe~~, ~~you can use~~ a wall that ends on the same tile ~~(if available)~~, fall down, and ~~then~~ ~~jump~~.

A Dreadcorner refers to jumping on the corner of terrain with spikes, except for a pixel-perfect spot on the corner where there isn't. This corner is safe to jump or Cornerboost on. To set it up, grab a wall that ends on the same tile, fall down without pressing directional keys, and press Jump at the right time.

=== Cornerboost (Cboost) ===

Line 108:

Line 109:

Dream Jumps grant a small upwards (but mostly horizontal) speed boost when exiting Dream Blocks. Simply press Jump as you leave the dream block.

Dream Double-Jump: Spamming the jump button twice right as Madeline makes it out of the dream block allows for a longer jump than a normal dream jump.

== Modded Tech ==

Modded Tech is not found in the base game nor its speedruns, but still exists. It can be used in modded levels.

Modded Tech is not found in the base game nor its speedruns, but still exists. It can be used in modded levels where the mapmaker uses in-game elements in a way not found in the vanilla levels.

=== Dream Redirect ===

Line 204:

Line 205:

When transitioning between two screens, Madeline's dash(es) and stamina are restored.

=== Coyote Time ===

=== Coyote Time/Jump ===

Madeline is allowed to jump for a few frames after leaving a platform.

=== Fastbubbling ===

Press Dash while inside of a bubble to make it move sooner.

Press Dash while inside of a stationary bubble to make it move sooner. Dashing inside a moving bubble will use your dash and make Madeline dash outside of the bubble, interrupting it.

=== Ledges ===

Ledges refer to the corner(ish) of a tile that doesn't actually have spikes on it, but next to it (usually on a wall). These are completely safe to stand on, although they are rather tiny. To stand on them, stand just next to the corner of the tile.

This is not to be confused with Dreadcorners; Dreadcorners are only the pixel edge on the corner of a wall, but ledges can be stood on and allow for more leniency.

=== Directional Spikes ===

Spikes will not hurt Madeline if she is travelling away from them or in the direction that they point. This is the method behind Spikejumps and one-way gates.
