If not trolling, time your jumps more carefully. Good luck with the boss it filtered me for 25 years.

Literally just go up. When you get to the top, go left but slowly so you don't miss the jumps at the platforms. At the end the platforms flip so don't run after you get across. Be careful when you approach the boss because the platforms on each side flip there as well.

That's a shortcut, and the point is there'a no trick you need in order to get past the level. It's not like a puzzle you need to solve to be allowed forward. The path you take to move forward is as straightforward as it gets.

Is it a trick? I figured this out on my own and to jump in certain parts of Sonic 1 to avoid screen death. I'm pretty sure OP is trolling but then again this place is full of /v/ posters.

This level is really filtering. But if you practice every day, eventually you'll be able to clear. The next act is MUCH worse.

The trick with the boss is to stay in the middle. Do NOT leave the middle part. It's the only part which is safe.

You're missing the point you autist.
It isn't aome difficult level where you NEED to do a trick in order to proceed.
In fact most people have no idea about that shortcut and don't need to know because, once again and for the third time, it's a strajghtforward level where you can complete it simply by taking the obvious path forward and jumping on the slowly rotating block platforms.

Speed + ramp + jump = weeeeeeeeeee

>>8865678
Most of the time I see people fail this section it's because they're completely ignoring the movement pattern of the blocks, whch results in them jumping for blocks that move out from under them and fall down. Don't do that.

>> No.8866757

Is it okay if I complain about getting crushed by the moving blocks even though it looks like sonic fits between them?

Don't listen to the haters Op, I had problems with this level when I was a six year old too. The trick is to jump up onto the moving block above before it starts moving to the right.

The block will move under you as you land. Ez

Only the barrel one is an actual thing you would get stuck on.
Chemical Plant should, at absolute worst, maybe result in you dying the first time around because you didn't get the hang of how to play a basic platformer yet.
There's no trick to it though. You just jump on the slowly moving blocks and if you don't mash the buttons like a spastic retard you won't fall and won't run out of air during that 20 second interval where you're jumping from one block to another underwater.
It's so very far away from an actually difficult timing platformer like Battletoads that I can't believe anyone seriously has trouble with it for any longer than the first plauthrough. The timing for Chemical Plant is plenty forgiving. If you make an honest effort to pay attention and jump on the blocks you get past it. That's all there is to it.

Nobody ever talks about the long term ramifications that some of these stages have on their protagonists. Chemical Factory and Oil Ocean come to mind, not like Sonic was wearing any protective gear. And let's not forget how much radiation he was exposed to during the Death Egg.

Even now, if I mess up by falling down too far, there's a good chance I won't have time to make it all the way up because of the water slowing down movement too much
