Yes, they are TOO simple. All you said was "jump when you hit the wall". What do you think I've been doing? I've been hitting A as HARD and FAST as I can when I hit the wall and NOTHING HAPPENS. Everything else works fine, but WHEN during the wall hit should I hit A? Metroid 3's wall jumping ALSO took forever for me to learn. That was a little different, but it took learning timing that wasn't intuitive. Should I hit it AFTER I hit the wall? Should I hit A right when I start to fall, like in Super Mario 64? Shoudl I hit A just BEFORE hitting the wall? Shoudl I do what I've been doing and hit a over and over again during the whole wall hitting sequence?
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
