Wall jump
A Wall jump is a basic part of Mario's movement, and is initiated after a wall slide. When a wall jump occurs, Mario move away from the wall at a set speed directly away from the wall's angle.
Properties
While mostly locked into a single direction, Mario can actually slightly move left or right if the control stick is held in said direction.
Wall jumps are most commonly used after a cap throw to maximize height.
A wall jump will always consume Mario's cap bounce, making it impossible to do so until he reaches the ground again.
Wall jumps can only be done to gain height if a few criteria are met:
- Mario is not higher on a wall that has an angle less than 90 degrees from the wall he jumped from
- The next wall is not too far away
- The next wall is at least 90 degrees apart from the wall Mario jumped from
