You can use the Robo Gobbo from the bridge, without having to jump down and take the Balloon back up (video; discovered by Thermospore 2024-10-19)
- This screenshot from limbus (presumably orthographic and from Blender) shows the valid range where the bridge doesn’t block the Clockwork Marker
- Paulmall quickly discovered a setup: you can do a ledge grab and use the Clockwork Gobbo as you pull yourself up (video)
- Switching to Type 2 can make it easier to get a ledge grab (but loses time, of course)
- However, it’s much faster and not that much harder to just yolo it, like so
In the final room, you can do a Gummi Buffer into the Golden Gobbo section, allowing you to skip up onto the platforms. < check which type of Gummi is the fastest >. Discovered by Paulmall here on 2021-07-12
The green Gummi Jump up to this Crystal box in the final room can be skipped by:
- doing a Cage Skip
- using a blue gummi jump
- using a orange jelly (proven here on JP)
- (btw, this same skip can be done in Theif)

Thermospore’s notes for blind Gems for 100%:
1: RIGHT - 6
2: DOWN - 5.5
3: UP/LEFT → UP on 5
4: DOWN - jump @4.5 let go @6
5: LEFT - 6
The direction is held on kb/dpad for that number of gobbo bounces. Seems to match what I do in this 100% sailor IW from 2019-02-25
wait, I seem to be doing something more advanced in this Max% IL from 2020-02-15 (jfc I was not in a good mood lol)
and in this 100% run from 2020-08-13 there are some differences too. I might have been doing safe strats; it’s possible I knew about faster strats
- do some actual crow runs to get my head back in the game
- search discord for info/history
- could be some additional runs worth checking for strats
