  3. 3
    Combat involves using the Deadball (a beam katana) and a starting gun.
  4. 4
    Master the jump heavy attack, which deals significant damage quickly, to overcome enemies efficiently.
  5. 5
    Utilize summoned 'Bastards' for combat assistance. These allies have unique cooldown abilities like turrets, healing, or explosive attacks.

    Be aware that Bastard AI can be inconsistent, with some not performing their abilities as expected.
Tips
  • Focus on the jump heavy attack for efficient damage output, as it's faster than the standard heavy attack.
  • The starting sword and gun are sufficient for completing the game, so don't feel pressured to acquire and upgrade numerous other weapons unless you find a specific need.
  • The 'Bastards' are a key combat mechanic. Experiment with their different abilities to find the most effective combinations for various enemy groups.
  • Be prepared for repetitive gameplay loops, especially in the subspace sections and when managing Bastards.
  • The Bastard system involves growing them from seeds, which triggers prolonged cutscenes and naming sequences. Merging Bastards for better stats also involves multiple cutscenes and planting/unearthing sequences, which can become tedious.
