Master the game's physics. Go from zero to God Tier pulling.
Don't hold the swing button too long! If you Swing all the way under a hook and start going upwards, you lose forward momentum. Release the rope when you are at the absolute bottom of the arc. This flings you forward with maximum horizontal speed.
While zooming forward, you can hold A or D to drift slightly left or right. Use this to narrowly dodge red hazards in mid-air without needing to grapple a hook to brake.
When you have 5 high-tier brainrots in your backpack, don't get greedy. Falling into the void wipes them all. Play it safe by grappling conservatively (holding rope to stabilize) rather than doing crazy long-distance flings back to base.
