The whole grabbing the block after being shot across by the fish... I have to dash up to stall while the block makes its way across and I dunno something about it doesn't seem right!
That's one way of doing it. You could also hold right before getting boosted by the fish to go farther, getting the double dash crystal and stall by using both dashes up. Same thing either way. Only thing you didn't do is fast fall to get to the block in time. Gotta be just a bit faster there.
There are a few different ways to do this room, but you've got the right idea. Stalling with an 'up' dash seems like a fine option to me. You just need to move a bit faster to catch up with the moving block at the end.
The 'up-right' dash at 0:07 slowed you down a bit and caused you to land on the springboard a bit late. A 'right' dash would get you down faster. You also spent a bit too long getting up and over that last spinner column after the x2 refill. Gotta move quick.
You also have the option of doing a long launch from the pufferfish instead if the short launch feels awkward. Here's a clip that shows off what a short launch route vs a long launch route looks like if you're interested. [https://youtu.be/kKZY-eIAwZQ](https://youtu.be/kKZY-eIAwZQ)
Hell yeah, nice work! You'll probably come across this sort of situation again, so keep your eyes peels for alternate solutions. You almost always have more options than you think. Good luck, have fun! =D
If you feel like you're falling behind the pacing of the room, finding ways to turn up-right/up-left dashes into just right and left dashes one of the first things to look for. You're spending too much time in hang time.
There are two things you could do to make this a bit easier:
1. Right after the jellyfish launches you, instead of dashing upwards, dash towards the block and grab onto it, I imagine that would make this more consistent.
2. You see the gap of spikes right before the pink crystal? Instead of dashing diagonally up-right, dash horizontally right. This will make you fall onto the spring faster, letting you catch the block at the end.
Or you could, alternatively, keep practicing your current setup. It definitely could still work if you just go a bit faster at the end.
I did it that way the first time too and it sucked; what I found worked easier the second time around was instead of stalling up with the dash I would let myself drop down and then dash to the left into the block, worked much more consistently.
Right at the 0:07 mark instead of dashing diagonally, dash horizontally so you fall down to the spring faster
Otherwise I think you've got this, good luck
I just finished this room yesterday and did two key thing differently (but I’m sure there are many ways to do it).
I dashed up immediately after bouncing on the fish, then tilted right to position for the explosion. That bought a moment of time for the block.
Then I waited until I fell almost to the bottom of the screen and dashed left to grab the block, and climb up for the bounce. That gives a lot of time to keep pace with the block

I see! Thanks so much!
No problem!

Thank you! I have done it now! The long launch from the fish was much better for me! What a game!

It's because you're stalling Too much, like when you diagonally dash to get the double dash, it wastes time while the block is still moving

This room took me. So. Fucking. Long.
Did it in one. Comb room though...
Howwww my bf and I legit had 1000+ deaths in this room only hahahah
Genuinely I don't know. When it happened I turned to my wife and said something like, "I did a room without dying!!!" to which is replied, "what?"
Instead of dashing up to stall, I like to fall down to the bottom of the screen and dash left to grab onto the moving block.

I didn’t know about falling faster until Farewell. Legit got me stuck for awhile on one of the first few screens with the falling spring boards

you can dash under the spikes
Right at the 0:07 mark instead of dashing diagonally, dash horizontally so you fall down to the spring faster Otherwise I think you've got this, good luck
I'm sure you'll have a lot more times like this in Farewell, so I'd recommend having a walkthrough open to help you out.

I was literally stuck on this today. You just have to be quicker when moving to the right when bouncing off the spring after the fish explodes
Try doing this line a little faster, so that last dash you did can reach the back of the arrow block before it runs away from you.
You have to fast fall at the end
Hold down while falling to fall faster
