So I've still been casually testing out things related to this glitch.
I have a couple of questions that might be relevant, maybe some of the more technically knowledgeable people know the answers.
If I stand right here on any of the platforms, basically at the peak of the triangle, and stand right up against the wall, mario gets into a state where if I jump, I can't move in any direction while in the air. Also mario can't double jump, and does his diving animation while mario is in the air if you hit B.
So why does this happen? Do those small peaks have special properties, like slipperiness?
Here is something else I noticed. If I jump from that position and 2 frames later hit B, I will eventually fall off the platform and collide with something behind me that turns Mario around, any idea what this could be? It seems like its in the same spot where the wall above mario at the top platform is.
Any ideas what is going on here?
I saw some theories about Mario colliding with the peak of the platform above him when he jumps in the glitch video, they do seem to give him some funny properties.
