Dodging/Slow-Motion
Dodging and Slow Motion go together like me and buttered toast

Slowmo won't really run out if you're constantly hitting your enemies, so take out your akimbo pistols and start blasting their heads off as soon as possible

While using slowmo, you can see enemy bullets much better than if you were firing at someone else. Use this to your advantage and look at every single pixel on the screen to guess on which shots are gonna hit you first

(hold down W to dodge longer btw)

Weapons
Akimbo pistols are gonna be your go-to choice of weaponry when you need to get some foes down. Not only do they have infinite ammo, but they also have 16 shots that you can drive into heavier enemies that take a lot of hits to get down if you're like me that never goes for headshots

Akimbo uzis make me go MMF, you wanna use those too for pretty much everything

Never use the solo pistol or uzi, those suck

Shotgun is for mainly close-up kills but can also be used for crowd control in one of the later levels in the game. It's also really cool to blow off an enemy's head while bursting in through glass

Assault rifle is pretty neat as well, more powerful, 6-shot burst and a couple of grenades packed in with the bullets for alt-fire

Sniper rifle is mediocre. It's not bad, but it's also not good. You can use it in slowmo to get kinda easy headshots directly in front of enemies, but then again as soon as you tap that W key your life is a joke

Not a weapon, but kicking is efficient to make enemies leave Earth as it effectively oneshots and can be used at pretty much any angle

Remember: Switching weapons is faster than reloading

Movement
Wall-jump. Wall-jump off of enemies and wall-jump off of walls. Wall-jumping is probably one of the flashiest moves to ever exist in platforming and not only does it look cool it also gives a lot of points if you air-spin-split-kill while wall-jumping

Rolling is stupid and fun and you can do it anywhere (even up STAIRS?? WHAT??) but you have to roll a minimum distance before you can stop which can really throw you off in some levels

Hooks are also quite fun but they require a bit of knowledge to understand how they fully work

  • You cannot go back up any of the three hooks
  • You must completely jump off the hook to reconnect which is incredibly rare
  • Certain enemies can be attached to hooks


(ran out of art things, take some funposts)
Map Memory
Play a map a couple million times to understand where you have to move, where the enemies are, and even learn a couple of new strategies while you're at it. This helps at trying to get full combos, damageless runs, no-FOCUS runs, etc. etc. It's also just a good warm up-practice thing to do in general
