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.
