About: Stepping Stones in the Sky   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

A version of Colossus Climb controlled by the Rule of Cool. A character somehow jumps and runs along a rain of falling debris or projectiles -- none of which are actually attached to anything -- not only to dodge but to gain altitude, sometimes to reach the area firing the things in the first place. A very good way to not only show off a character's agility but also their speed. Not to be confused with Floating Continents. See also Improvised Platform. Examples of Stepping Stones in the Sky include:

  • A version of Colossus Climb controlled by the Rule of Cool.

A very good way to not only show off a character's agility but also their speed. Technically due to Newton's Third Law of Motion this isn't actually impossible, it just requires that the rocks have enough mass to be worth pushing against, and that the character can run and jump faster than they are falling. It all becomes much more plausible if their destination is in freefall along with them. Not to be confused with Floating Continents. See also Improvised Platform.
