Usage

When entering a Portal World for the first time, the Jetpack will not function until fully calibrated to the new portal environment. Players cannot use the Jetpack until they have completed the Portal World at least once.

The player can press and hold the jump key while in the air to be pushed upwards using battery power, allowing the player to jump higher and farther and slow their descent to avoid fall damage.

Flying quickly fills a red heat bar, which goes down when the Jetpack is not in use. The heat bar increases in periods rounded up to the nearest 25%; shorter durations of flight will not refund any unused burn time. If the bar is completely filled, the Jetpack overheats and must completely cool off before it can be used again. However, with the Dangling Gravity Cube and pressing and releasing jump with a certain rhythm, it's possible to maintain nearly indefinite flight until the battery is drained.

The Jetpack completely changes movement in the game, allowing the player to skip certain areas and preventing fall damage in almost every circumstance.

Trivia

  • The distant pillars in Far Garden can be reached and are solid, but traveling too far from the main area will cause all terrain to disappear. Some of the far pillars even have Anteverse Wheat, which can be harvested. The area around the portal to Far Garden has a kill plane and can cause corpse items to be lost.
  • The elevator in the Furniture Store can be skipped by flying to the top, saving time and effort on return journeys.
