| “ | Launchpad ahoy! | ” |
Launchpads are an object in Splatoon and Splatoon 2, appearing in Octo Valley, Octo Canyon, the Octo Expansion, the tutorial, and the Shifty Station The Bunker Games.
Description
Launchpads appear as flat circles of swirling ink on horizontal and vertical surfaces. If the player assumes squid/octopus form on a launchpad, then they will immediately Super Jump to a predetermined destination. This functions like a regular Super Jump, meaning it is possible to use a Splashdown at the end of it. Launchpads are the most common form of transportation between platforms in single-player modes, and tend to appear after an objective, such as defeating all enemies in the area, has been completed.
Appearances
In Splatoon, launchpads appear in every Octo Valley mission, including boss battles. They are also seen in Area 5 of Octo Valley, where a launchpad will take the player to the final boss kettle. A launchpad also appears at the end of the tutorial, launching the player to Inkopolis Plaza.
In Splatoon 2, launchpads are frequently present in Octo Canyon and Octo Expansion missions and are also used to travel between sectors in Octo Canyon. They are also used in a Shifty Station layout, The Bunker Games, and one again appears at the end of the tutorial, launching the player to Inkopolis Square.
Trivia
- In Octo Valley, there are small arrows pointing to the launchpads once they appear. Once the player is near it, a prompt telling them to press
will appear above it. This is not the case in Octo Canyon.
