the jump button is much, much less responsive than the hookshot button, with the jump button working like 1/10 times you press it. this is supposed to be a platforming-action game, but when there's either a huge delay or it didn't register my input, it just.. doesn't work.
"so, sir, what would you like put on this house? i'd say we should go for a door fir-" "flowers and vases." "wh...that doesn't make any sense, how do you-" "I SAID, FLOWERS AND VASES. WHAT AM I PAYING YOU FOR."
i've tried for months on end. ever since this game came out, i've been striving for 100% completion at different times. but jesus christ the impossible badge is impossible.
for anyone wondering, this game is broken on firefox. go to fizzd.itch.io or just google "rhythm doctor" and it should be embedded in a website. this version's broken, go play the fixed one
protips about melee combat: if you hit someone immediately after jumping, it will 100% knock them down and farther away into hazards. they can crouch under this, though. diving (running and then pressing crouch while running) will knock people over and do minimal damage. it also makes you immune to fall damage. guns will sometimes knock enemies down and knock them back when you shoot them at any range, although you're more likely to do it with the shotgun or sniper rifle. the bazooka insta-kills if you get a direct hit, it also slows down time until the person explodes.
Protip: the first boss can ONLY be damaged by special attacks (aka your charged attack), and if you need charge, just hold the left and right arrow keys, it'll manually charge you. The spiderlazor is stunned by special attacks, at which point he can be damaged by normal attacks.
:D
