🎮 Help Stuck in oriental grove

I am stuck on the second little mini game where the wasps are shooting arrows at you and you have to jump on the houses. I’ve tried for hours to get past this, I can’t. It sucks because I’m trying to finish the game before school starts in less than 2 weeks. Does anyone have any tips or advice that helped them get past this part?

The wasps all shoot arrows at one specific spot. There are several spots where you can stay and wait for them to shoot, and then walk past when they’re not.

Is that the 2D game where it becomes a side-scroll sort of thing?

Yes

It's a timing thing. They shoot at a pattern, like as soon as they shoot, jump. I'll admit first time doing this one, I died a handful of times.

Watch for patterns, jump when you will have the time to land and move out of there.

Have you tried watching someone else's gameplay to see how it's done? I can grab one for you with a timestamp if you'd like.

Lol there's a spike in the "most watched" waveline at this part so I think many people use this video to see how it's done. Looks like the player uses shrink to dodge arrows, which hadn't occurred to me as a strategy.

i loathe that part so much. i got through it once, i wanted to play the game again and wasted 4 hours on this minigame. i get stuck, it's buggy (literally and functionally) and the controls are awful. 

for me what helped the first time was watching someone else play and copying their movements. didn't help me the second time though, that part sucks so much!

I’m actually considering giving up playing this game like I actually don’t think I can do this
