Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Explore locations, kill monsters, and use magic TV sets to enter subspace versions of the areas.
  2. 2
    In subspace, interact with the environment to unlock pathways in the real world and reach objectives.
  3. 3
    Combat involves using the Deadball (beam katana) and a starting gun; jump heavy attacks are effective and quick.
  4. 4
    Acquire and upgrade weapons, though starting options are often sufficient.
  5. 5
    Utilize 'Bastard' companions for combat assistance, each with unique cooldown abilities.
Tips
  • Prioritize jump heavy attacks for efficient combat due to their speed and damage.
  • Experiment with different 'Bastard' companions, but be aware of the tedious cultivation and merging process.
  • The game's narrative can be interpreted as a meta-commentary on Suda51's career and creative direction.
  • Don't get too invested in the plot or Romeo's character; focus on the gameplay mechanics.
  • The subspace sections are often padding; focus on completing them efficiently to progress.
