Jumps short

So I'm in Parched Earth. Ferazel's made it througfh a series of cannons and now he's jumped up a series of small platforms to get the xirons. He's at the top and he has to jump to another platform that looks like a square of cement in the air. Here's my question: Whenever he tries to jump to that square platform he never makes it. What isn't he doing right?

I haven't played FW in quite some time, but I think you're at the place where you have to backtrack into the cannon and shoot out to the cement-like platform.

Are you "running" and "jumping" at the same time? "Shift", "option" "up arrow" and "side arrow" all at the same time as I recall! (been a while for me too.)

Were the platforms above a sand pit? If so, then all you really need to do is get a slight running start and jump

Welcome to the boards 🙂
