'''Glydon Upflight''' is an exploit that allows gaining unlimited height using the [[Glydon]] capture. It is performed by walking off the side of a slope as Glydon and immediately entering flight, then flying in an arc until Glydon is facing the direction that corresponds with the slope's uphill direction. | '''Glydon Upflight''' is an exploit that allows gaining unlimited height using the [[Glydon]] capture.

Once a desired amount of height is attained, the player can exit and re-enter flight in order to correct the level plane and resume normal flight, allowing Glydon to glide down to any desired location. | Once a desired amount of height is attained, the player can exit and re-enter flight in order to correct the level plane and resume normal flight, allowing Glydon to glide down to any desired location. | ||

Glydon Upflight is used in [[Minimum Captures Darker Side]], in single-player runs on versions [[Version 1.2.0|1.2.0]] and later. Such a run requires traversing the [[Darker Side (kingdom)|Darker Side]] dungeon, with no way to skip it, since [[Frog Airswim]] is exclusive to versions 1.1.0 and earlier, and the [[Cappy return cancel]] to skip it requires [[two-player mode]]. Within the dungeon, Glydon is required to cross a large gap. Glydon Upflight allows the Glydon capture to be used to fly directly to the end of the dungeon, skipping two [[spark pylon]] captures that would normally be required at the end. The exploit is initiated from the side of the [[Sphynx|Sphynx's]] head, which necessitates a bit of backtracking from where Glydon is first found. | Glydon Upflight is used in [[Minimum Captures Darker Side]], in single-player runs on versions [[Version 1.2.0|1.2.0]] and later.
