Learn about The Drifter's Dash Abilities: Chain Dash, Dash Shield, and Dash Strike. Master these moves to navigate obstacles and defeat enemies.

Chain Dash

Chains together multiple dashes if you press the dash button at the right moment. It is impossible to pass some flaming or disappearing platforms without this move. You will fall to the ground if you dash into an obstacle and you will also slide once you stop this move.

Dash Shield

Shields you from damage if you dash into any projectiles, except rockets. Works better if you dash straight into the projectiles.

Dash Strike

Press the dash button then immediatly press the attack button to deal 2 damage points to an enemy and pushing him back to deal extra damages if he hits a wall or another monster. This attack is mostly useful if you wish to push an enemy into a hole, but it does not work on the bigger ones.

Tips
  • Master the timing of the Chain Dash to traverse difficult platforms.
  • Use Dash Shield proactively against most projectiles, but be aware it does not block rockets.
  • Employ Dash Strike to push smaller enemies into hazards or off ledges, but it's ineffective against larger foes.
