Hi! I’m pretty young and my class is obsessed with Gimkit so I can’t wait to show off so hard lol. I’ve been grinding for hours and this is very helpful

[@maththrive]

Have fun being the best!

I always though the laser skips were possible but never attempted it, the black hole skips are going to help, there were many skips that are very valuable, with this, I can surly get below 9 minutes (if I am able to do all those skips in one run) thank you so much for this video.

[@maththrive]

I’m glad you enjoyed learning these skips and got a hood Speedrun time

[@pifflevariety]

Time to use this against my classroom XD

[@maththrive]

Make them pay.

[@aprilbrandon3441]

Funny thing, I knew some of these but these are pretty helpful, especially against that one kid who always wins

[@maththrive]

Lol true… if anything you can show off in front of that kid and laugh as he tries to do what you do and falls.

4:25 Look! That's my jump!

[@maththrive]

Lol!

I fell on the jump :(

thank you so much I just got 8:58 with these

[@maththrive]

@@thosewhomangknow it’s tough to go that fast

[@Messieselmejorconronaldo]

2:33 while doing the double barrel skip turn left and right quickly in mid air and jump when you hit the ground to get momentum and you don’t hit the wall

[@maththrive]

@@Messieselmejorconronaldo that’s actually good advice. I always thought that skip wasn’t worth doing because of that momentum loss but this is very helpful and makes the skip useful.

[@ThatPandaGaming]

I noticed that Blueprint Gim has the same hammer that is present in Summit 1 of Don't Look Down. Perhaps it could be part of the lore!

[@maththrive]

I need to look into that. It could play into the lore video

[@InklingGamer7626]

Crazy that this gamemode is nearing a year old, but i still think this tutorial is very helpful for new players getting into the dld speedrunning scene and the gimkit speedrunning community as a whole

[@maththrive]

@@InklingGamer7626 very true. As schools keep blocking other games and sites, gimkit is growing in popularity.

[@PijinApprentice]

Yooo I just played this is class today and this got recommended to me!

[@maththrive]

That’s ironic lol.

[@lolfool866]

Jumping seems to lock your velocity in place, which is what makes Corner Boosting work. Hitting a corner of anything or a slope to get the speed from it then jumping makes you go fast if you know how to chain jumps while still landing on what your suppose to. A lot of people don’t realize that this also goes the other way around and they accidentally do it after landing which makes them slower than normal because they don’t let their characters re accelerate on the ground.

[@maththrive]

Very true! And now, the boosts were patched.

[@lolfool866]

@@maththrive sadly

[@maththrive]

@@lolfool866 yeah. But I think the Knockback feature is worth the lack of a speed boost, especially if we can get it for every gadget and it varies in power similar to the Blastball’s Knockback. Speed boosts were only useful for DLD. When it comes to the other 2 modes, they aren’t necessary. I’m sad to see them go, since they’re a rare skill to perfect, but we aren’t missing out on much.

[@Winter_Fox9124]

Thank you hopefully this will let me win Don't look down

[@maththrive]

It should.

[@Hypelier]

Update: Thanks to you my new high score is 8:50!

[@maththrive]

No way!!!

[@KaIIenie]

The bucket skip is so useful when ur tryna catch up. Literally everyone is like "bruh" when they see someone do it

[@maththrive]

True. It just looks cool, and it’s an easy one to pull off

[@maththrive]

True. I’ve seen the 4 skip before and it’s definitely more worth it. The 3 skip I showed does have the same wait time as the 2 skip but you save that 1 platform time.

[@KevinChiu-ut9yr]

Thank you for that coral climb skip to the agent adventure I dindnt know that existed

[@maththrive]

@@KevinChiu-ut9yr you’re welcome. It does save a good 15 seconds

[@KevinChiu-ut9yr]

When I tried it after I watched this vid it didn't work for me some how idk why😅😅😅

[@KevinChiu-ut9yr]

Or maybe I didn't time it right I might have to try again sometime

[@DragoVish]

Bro this is so help full thank you so much

Happy to help

[@hasherssaa]

At the part with the anvil and the wall if you jump and press against it then double jump up it you will get up it.

[@maththrive]

Thanks for the info! I’ll try it out

[@Vagatee]

On that anvil part after the lava buckets you can double jump to get on that little ledge great video though

I really like Sketch, but I enjoy the animation on Sid

[@FaithFirstFishing]

What set do you use? Normally when I do all right I don’t get xp.

[@maththrive]

I love your name. Fellow Christian here. I don’t really know what you’re asking me about what set I use… I’ve been getting exp because of the xp reset every Wednesday/Tuesday. And I don’t really play so much that I max out my exp gain too quickly.

[@FaithFirstFishing]

@@maththrive thanks man. I mean like what questions do you use, because I use the he “all right” one and it never gives me xp. I think the game might sense all the answers are right and don’t give you the xp because of it. Thanks for the tips to I can’t wait to speed run it

[@maththrive]

Yea. When all the answers are correct you won’t get xp

[@doorsgaming01034]

the skip at 10:08 is basically pointless, you can jump twice much easier and youll wait the same amount of time

[@maththrive]

Sorta true but you are a platform up which saves a little on jump time

[@OriginalSoupFromEgypt]

nice vid! i think there are more skips that require boosts. but i cant figure out how to get a boost it just happens randomly to me

[@maththrive]

They typically are random. They happen because some collisions are oval on the edges, so the game thinks you’re falling and gives you the speed of as if you’re dropping

[@Ryo_SillyGuy]

I may work on a obstacle on gimkit creative.

[@maththrive]

Do it!

[@Ryo_SillyGuy]

Alr, but the obstacle may take a bit of practice, since detections and there will be checkpoints, but kinda hard to reach it.

[@maththrive]

I see

[@Ryo_SillyGuy]

@@maththrive And there will be traps. Alot of them.

[@Ryo_SillyGuy]

I added new stuff before I send the beta testing

[@DeskKun]

Yeah the skip at the end purple chair is what I used to avoid falling

[@maththrive]

Makes sense! I’ve gotten a little better since those KZbin shorts

[@joelabella395]

I only found like 6 skips you didn’t cover but they were very small ones that would effect your time by like only 8 seconds
