I think I'll go crazy soon. If there's one thing I really hate in platformers it's when you jump into an enemy and then you bounce off falling to your death or you have to reach the top of a tower and it happens to me all the time, mostly because the jumping control in this game is horrible, it's to stale for my taste.

Anyway, is there any item or even cheat for this?

Nope. There's a software combination that increases the mercy invincibility duration, which helps, but nothing for the knockback itself. You just have to be prepared. It's not too bad once you get used to it.* Once you get the Feather (which enables double-jump) the jumps become a LOT easier to control, too.


*At least until the Hell Temple. But that's a totally optional extra-hard dungeon with no rewards other than bragging rights, so feel free to ignore it completely.

Pity. It's really annoying. If I could change one thing about the game aside from more saves that would be it.

I read about the mercy invincibility item but I gather it's some time before I reach that (I just reached Chamber of Extinction).
