Successful hunting as a Jumping Spider requires you to combine several techniques such as Darting (Double-tap WSAD), Long-Jumping (Spacebar) and Quick Reflex (Tap R) seamlessly.

In this first video we look at how to climb a plant quietly without alerting your prey using chemo, sneaky walk, darting and quick reflex all in rapid succession. In less than one minute!

You can also combine skills like Quick Reflex and Long Jumps together to catch prey! This video shows you how:

Other things:

Prey can spot you in three ways:
Vision: Use camouflage such as dark knapweed flowers to hide yourself and just wait till a prey comes by! This is another easy way to hunt.

Vibrations: Use Sneaky Walk (default key is Left Control) to dampen your vibrations while climbing a plant to avoid alerting prey!

Chemo: Not much of an issue for Jumping Spiders as they only emit strong odor while consuming prey (or while courting a female Jumping Spider, but that's not in the game yet :))

Moving Rapidly:
Use the spin keys Q/E along with short-jumps for agility. You're only supposed to use A/D while fine-tuning jumps/etc.

There's a lot to being a Jumping Spider and I hope this little guide helps you have more fun with the game :)
