Fastest to Slowest: Rolling (Bottom Right), L-Jumping (Bottom Left), Holding L (Top Right), Walking (Top Left)
General Movement
Listed are various movement forms and their speeds:
- Standard walking (10.8)
- Walking while holding L (10.4)
- Dashing
- Rolling
- Boosting
Some other notes:
- While you have a faster speed in general without holding L, you accelerate to that speed faster while holding the L button. (see also: The L Button)
- There is no sideways speedcap, this makes turning or moving sideways optimal.
- Space Jump Boots give you a higher vertical speedcap.
In Metroid Prime, movement is the highest priority of the game; it is very important to get the fundamentals down, as this is what helps you improve and go faster.
The Basics
This is some of the basic tech you should get down.
Dashing
Dashing is the second fastest form of movement and is useful in many situations.
Morph Ball
Morph Ball is one of the most useful forms of movement, and is good when jumping or dashing is inconvenient.
Out of Bounds
Out of bounds is probably the most complicated thing in the game.
