You jump with A but hold up while jumping to go to a higher level like Shinobi/Rolling Thunder

I only played a little bit to get a feel but it seems cool. Although if you’re not like directly in the center of a door Smith just stands there and stares up at nothing lol

That same thing happened to me on my first time through then never again

i got a similar bug earlier where he and his lightning bolts switched palettes. but this time his lightning bolts were completely invisible so i just went to type are you loving serious in chat and did not take advantage of the fact that he apparently decided to do nothing but swoop. both bugs seemed to be caused by dying right before he appears

The instruction manual flagrantly lies about the length of time you hold down the jump button affecting the jump's height

Protip: there are permanent health upgrades in stage 3 and stage 6. (I don't think the manual ever mentions this either)

It's possible in one go but I'm not gonna make huge deal about it. Starting over and going through the dialogue at the start could get old quick.

i played it for like 10 minutes last night and got stuck because i couldnt figure out if it was possible to do a diagonal high jump, and then an enemy dropped down and touched my gun and i died

got all the way through stage 1 without firing a shot but didn't realize I had to find a bomb to get through the exit. lol

i like a lot of stuff about this one but your sprite bein so big, getting launched back when you get hit, and not gettin a damage timeout mean you get beefed sometimes with nothin to do about it. maybe that wont matter so much when i'm done with pacifist

Yeah they will just knock you into another enemy like a pinball and kill you irrecoverably. Or into the water
