I found this very, very, very usefull thank´s mate.

The special attacks are practically useless, particularly the explosion attack - it takes your entire mana bar and can't even kill the weakest enemy in one hit. May as well just mash the basic attack.

The gameplay becomes more interesting when you realize it's somewhat possible to cast attacks while dashing. Really helps dealing with crowds without taking to much damage yourself.

For Xbox/Playstation style controllers:
Left Stick = movement
Right Stick = camera
X/Square = normal attack
Y/Triangle = heavy attack
A/X = jump
RB/R1 = dash
LB/L1 = jump to next platform while standing on a pink aura circle
LT/L2 = lock on
RT/R2 + X/Square = range attack*
RT/R2 + Y/Triangle = spin attack*
RT/R2 + B/Circle = explosion attack*

*These attacks use up some of the blue gauge (underneath your red health bar). Purple crystals sometimes dropped from defeated enemies replenishes some of the blue bar.

So, how do you save in this game?

w, a, s, d - move
left m. - normal attack
right m. - heavy attack
f - dash
shift - lock on
1 - ranged attack
2 - spinning attack
3 - EXPLOSION!!!
space - jump

shift: lock on
1-3 num: special attacks
