The Flipper is an accessory that allows a player to swim in liquids. When equipped, the player can swim upwards in any liquid by holding or pressing Jump repeatedly – essentially allowing unlimited multi-jumps while within liquid. It can be found in Water Chests and Ocean/Seaside Crates.

Notes

  • Unlike the Flipper Potion, neither itself nor any of its upgrades negate movement penalty while moving in liquids.
