Thank you! I'm surprised you found the right path harder, as it was meant to be a shortcut, and everyone who tested found it way easier than the regular route. As for the spike hitboxes, they do move up and down a bit, and their collision boxes are actually slightly smaller than their sprite. If you're hitting them while doing the dash/boost swim thing, it's move up ever so slightly while doing this, which is never mentioned in the game or description. xD
