A few techniques to apply while Running

Hey, I've just wanted to start document different Techniques I've found useful during Runs.

- Block Throwing:
When you pick-up an Item with the Psychic Powers, it Reduces your Magic Stamina based on the Time you hold it and the distance of the Actions you do.
To reduce that amount, you can simply "throw" that Object and recatch it, then throw again. This reduces Magic Stamina use enough to do just slightly more and when spaced correctly, let you even recover some Magic Stamina.

- Block Jumping:
Hold an Object Mid-Air, land on it, then Jump off it to Refill your flying capabilities.

- Block Flying:
By utilizing Block Jumping in combination with Block Throwing, you can keep the Object below you in Order to gain additional Height or Distance. The Best combination I found so far, is 2 Block Throws into 1 Short Block Jump. If you stay for long on the Block, it will start falling quicker.
This Technique can be used to get out of Bounds in some Areas, where the Developers didn't thought you'd be able to get this height. While Out of Bounds, Collision Rarely Matches the Visuals.

- Early Actions:
While Flying and using the Magic abilities itself is impossible for a short amount of time after Starting a Stage or dying, you can use a Jump from the Yellow Orbs appearing in later Levels, aswell as Gliding. In a few instances this can allow you to start moving forward slightly earlier.
A caveat: sometimes, based on what you do, those early actions get stuck untill you repress their Buttons. This can lead to Damage, Deaths or just straight up Time Loss.

- Cycles:
As far as I've found, all Cycles are Local and if you are able to delay something from loading, you do the same for it's cycle. Only useful Application I've found so far is in the first Level where you can wait for a short Moment before the Crusher Section and then Rush straight through, skipping 2 cycles.
