Tips and tricks

  • If there is a dash, jump or dodge move, treat it as a resource: use it to escape, not to attack, until you know the level.
  • Use short practice sessions. Ten focused minutes will improve your timing far more than an hour of frustrated retries.
  • Keep moving. Standing still is the most common way to lose an action round, because the game is designed to punish hesitation.
