Prinny_Saturn, you should see a doctor about an eye problem, or drink some coffee once in a while. If you look closely, you can see Anscom slicing them with his muramasa sword. However, he knows that he must do it quickly, so he moves his sword as fast as possible. It is also possible that Anscom's training has rendered his movements too fast for the naked eye to observe properly. (P.S. While I am commenting, I shall let you in on a secret attack. If you hold down and press space, you can run the bullets down the glockblade, which gives them more spin, making them more accurate. However, if you miss, you will have to go back up to the enemy to attack him, making this attack somewhat risky.)
jr6atycom, perhaps I forgot to mention Anscom's poor vision, which only allows him to see a small area. He always looks towards the valley, because that is where all the Weegeemages are coming from, and he does not want to let one get a jump on him...therefore, if he moves off screen, he will still have to focus on the valley. This aspect of the game was done on purpose, due to this fact. Sorry about that.
What's so great about these games, really? It's basically the exact same thing after the first one. I fail to see any good in this game. The overuse of the retro style kills the game with cookie-cutter graphics from the last 3 games and almost the exact same music. I could've played Robot Wants Kitty 4 times and it would've been pretty much the same.
