The game had mo trained to leap over things, and I suddenly needed to crouch scoot under attacks. I had my little Unholy Goalie rant in my thread here in part because initially I just couldn't figure out the 2nd part of the boss battle. It's definitely about movement patterns, and later bosses do require sort of visually managing different inputs.

I'm closing on 30 hours on the game, and I still stink, and get frustrated at times, but I feel like the game rewards time invested even for me. I've failed repeatedly on boss battles, but I feel the game rewards 'sticking with it' and Ground Hog Day like repeated failing as long as you pay attention to what's working and what isn't. The key to failure is trying to please everyone, as they say. As well as very diverse bosses (mechanically, not just aesthetically), But we understand this may of may not be enough diversity for everyone. Hopefully if you try it out on a few challenge levels, you'll find the right fit for you!Īs for the levels, we tried to put a lot of fun and diverse platform, hazard, and combat encounters in each of the games 4 zones. Now I won't say Huntdown is as hard as Contra, or Mega Man Zero, and it has a lot of modern QoL additions to make it more accessible to modern gaming standards. We tried to give Huntdown several difficulty options because though some enjoy old-school nail-biting challenges, others want a game to be a slight challenge, and more of a casual/fun experience. Different people have different comfort zones when it comes to difficulty. It certainly can be difficult for some folks, but we'd like to stress that is nothing to feel bad about.

but the levels are repetitive, basically the same thing over and over but with a different paint job. i like the graphics style, which is pretty much why i bought the game. i eventually had to get a trainer from CH because i was getting my butt kicked over and over.

Originally posted by jhr_digitalartist:is it just me or this a really difficult game, even on Easy mode, it seems like there is so much going on, like you have to memorize the patterns of enemies and especially bosses and their attacks/projectiles.
