This is very violent though its cartoon violence and doesnt really look like blood. A and D to move, Space to dash, F to do light attack, C to do heavy attack. G to parry, it will stun the enemy if you block an attack. since this is a very hard game, here are some tips: - The swordsmen are easily parried. parry them, hit them once and then move away. You can also attempt to hit them with 2 light attacks and 1 heavy attack to instantly kill. - The pikemen(idk what they are called) have a very long windup and only have 3 hp as opposed to the swordsman's 4 hp. they are glass cannons and are very fragile, though beware their range and damage. - USE YOUR HEAVY ATTACK(but dont spam it) the heavy attack has a long windup but does twice the damage(2). the light attack also has more range and less endlag, so you can hit multiple light attacks in a row. i find one of the best combonations with the attacks is to do one light attack, afterwards a heavy attack, and then another light attack. this kills the swordsman. I suggest using the heavy attack off of parries. - for the big shield dudes, parry them, please. it will make them so much easier. they also have a long windup which you can use to get behind them. if you hit them from behind while they have their shield up, you will deliver enourmous damage. beware their range. - For the spiked shield man, he has a lot of attacks. He is most dangerous in groups, and usually there will be at most 2 of them on screen (very rare, only 1 wave does this). his normal slash is completely unparriable, however you can take advantage of his overhead attack, and parrying it will leave him open for tons of damage. For his normal slash, you can dash behind him during it, as its forward range is massive. take the chance to deal in some damage as well. His charge deals the most damage, and it is reccomended to ignore other enemies to parry it. do not try to run from it, parry it as it travels for quite the distance. - prioritize enemies. pikemen come first but it will be hard to reach them in a large hord. afterwards comes swordsmen, and then shield men. the shield ones are really slow and take a while to reach you. - avoid being cornered. try to stay in the middle of the screen so you dont get a jjk level jumping.
