Corner Boosting is an advanced movement technique that exploits a buggy interaction between Wall Jumps and map geometry, allowing players to gain significantly more height than a standard wall jump. This technique can be performed on any edge or corner but requires precise positioning and timing.
A detailed analysis by twiikuu explains the mechanics behind Corner Boosting:
When a Wall Jump is executed:
- The game sets the character's velocity to a fixed value.
- The collision capsule's nearest point to the wall determines the launch angle.
- Due to the capsule's curvature, the resulting angle can point upwards rather than sideways, generating extreme vertical momentum.

| ■ Green: Sideways velocity |
| ■ Orange: Wall push |
| ■ Purple: Final velocity |
Corner Boosting has several practical uses:
- Height Advantage – Gain elevation to access high ground or evade enemies.
- Vision Control – Peek over obstacles (e.g., bridges, barrels) for better sightlines.
- Ability Synergy – Chain with abilities that benefit from extra height (e.g., Bebop’s Hook).
While Corner Boosting works on most edges, curved surfaces provide the most consistent results. Some notable objects include:
- Golden Idol Statue
- Stone Fencing
- Hotdog Stand
- Hogsworth’s Truck
There are some setups to get consistent Corner Boosts at certain spots. They are not mandatory; you can do corner boosts on any curved surface.
