The Dark Descent[]

  • Boost — Movement tech that allows Daniel to gain tons of momentum vertically or horizontally.
  • Double Lean — Allows Daniel to lean twice as far.
  • Fall Damage Reduction — Techniques that can reduce or negate fall damage.
  • Item Armour — Grants Daniel invincibility against enemy attacks.
  • Lean Swipe — Uses a lean and swiping motion to clip Daniel's camera through walls.
  • Prop hopping — Allows Daniel to jump off of lift-able objects repeatedly.
  • Reload Warp — Allows Daniel to teleport through entire maps if certain requirements are met.
  • Slippery Physics — Alters hitbox detection.

Justine[]

  • Boost — Movement tech that allows Justine to gain tons of momentum vertically or horizontally.
  • Double Lean — Allows Justine to lean twice as far.
  • Fall Damage Reduction — Techniques that can reduce or negate fall damage.
  • Item Armour — Grants Justine invincibility against enemy attacks.
  • Lean Swipe — Uses a lean and swiping motion to clip Justine's camera through walls. (Possible if config files are adjusted to allow for saving.)
  • Prop hopping — Allows Justine to jump off of lift-able objects repeatedly.
  • Reload Warp — Allows Justine to teleport through entire maps if certain requirements are met. (Possible if config files are adjusted to allow for saving.)
  • Slippery Physics — Alters hitbox detection.

A Machine for Pigs[]

  • Boost — Movement tech that allows Mandus to gain tons of momentum vertically or horizontally.
  • Fall Damage Reduction — Techniques that can reduce or negate fall damage.
  • Prop Flying (Pig hover) — Allows Mandus to hover using a pig.
  • Prop hopping — Allows Mandus to jump off of lift-able objects repeatedly.
  • Slippery Physics — Alters hitbox detection.

Rebirth[]

  • Boost(?) — Movement tech that allows Tasi to gain some momentum vertically, and potentially a lot horizontally.
  • Inventory Fall Reset (Fall Damage Reduction) — By opening and closing the inventory, Tasi's downward vertical velocity resets to zero. This can be used to avoid fall damage.
  • Prop Flying — Allows Tasi to hover using a lift-able object.
  • Regrab Glitch — Allows Tasi to clip out of bounds and/or prop fly with a lift-able object.
  • Teleport Clipping — Intentionally falling off the level while out of bounds and hitting the teleport plane, clipping through a wall from the hard-fall animation.

The Bunker[]

  • Boost — Movement tech that allows Henri to gain some momentum vertically, and potentially a lot horizontally.
  • Prop Flying — Allows Henri to hover using a lift-able object.
  • Regrab Glitch — Allows Henri to clip out of bounds and/or prop fly with a lift-able object.
  • Sleepwalking — It's possible to move around during the intro, which allows you to obtain a couple of items earlier than intended.
