A special little add-on to the Crawlphin Dive lets you float a bit off the ground while you do it.

Anywhere you have space to run, sprint and perform a normal dive, but in the middle of the animation, press prone (Ctrl) a second time. This should make Amber land higher than she typically should, treating the floor as if it were two feet higher. Additionally, you can still perform the fast crawl by diving, rolling, and then going prone in the middle of the animation, letting you not only float, but fly across the airways.

As an aside, you can use this to easily get into the Floor Assassin state.

As I think I've demonstrated by this point, the diving mechanic doesn't have as many safeguards as it needs to prevent multiple actions. These multiple actions confuse the game and result in a lot of buggy player states. This can be fixed by locking out other actions during the Dolphine Dive animation, which shouldn't hinder gameplay too much, though I will miss shooting while diving. What's odd is that the game locks out camera control during a dive, but practically no other forms of input that I've found.


While I like it, this add-on doesn't provide much that the previous Crawlphin Dive couldn't... beyond floating. Potentially it could offer you a higher vantage point if you needed to dive and then fire, but the added height doesn't seem to affect your interactions with objects for the most part. But as usual, it's entertaining. Since the game is still in its early builds, it's hard to see practical applications for some of these glitches at the moment.


These clips were recorded in Prototype 0.6.7.


I actually enjoy this game a lot even though it's in a pretty glitchy state right now, and I'd love to see it finished. If it looks interesting to you, be sure to check out the Kickstarter or download the demo on Steam and try it yourself.
