That is entirely true and fair.

And yet, you felt you needed to make a video showing the path to complete it and upload it as an update in the devlog, right? It seemed, to me, like it was because a number of people were having trouble. Ultimately, someone is going to have trouble with even the simplest of things, but I figure this indicates an issue that can be solved pretty easily without having to have outside resources like youtube videos and such. Afterall, aren't watching Leaf and watching this video fundamentally the same? (I say this knowing I might make an ass of myself 'cause I still haven't watched Leaf do it, lol.)

When I got to this point, I felt like I wanted to know how to get to the goal before I tried because I usually get a lot more frustrated under a timer (even if it is only perceived), so I went to try to figure it out before racing Leaf. Maybe other people felt the same way? Maybe they felt like they didn't want to risk losing the race? Maybe they thought something entirely different. idk. Players do weird things for weird reasons you can't always anticipate.

I figure the best you can do is give a variety of 'hints' while trying to minimize things that might come off as 'hand-holding'. Like being able to copy paste with ctrl+v or the right click menu, you could watch Leaf do it or you could figure it out first. 

To reiterate, the problems I had were seeing where I was supposed to land and the specific order of dash-jump -> dash -> jump instead of dash-jump -> jump -> dash which is what I had been doing. 

I don't intend to be rude with these observations and suggestions. Sorry if this comes off as such, I simply would like to see this game be as good as it can be.
