Ok, this time had the crash when transitioning from the tutorial level. But on second try it worked and could fight Saber Louise. But damn, I hardly deal any damage :o Girl's too thicc

Update: finally beat it. Took me more than 50 minutes. 20 Minutes to reach the Fox. Trying to parry seemed like a death sentence as so many attacks would hail down on me, eventually I'd get hit. Stayed mid range, as this would work well against her attacks.

In the first few attempts, getting her down to the sequence she would lose her jacket. In later tries she kept the jacket?

Didn't manage to parry a single projectile the entire time :(

What's a normal time to beat those bosses? I feel I'm doing something extremely wrong.

Thanks for the follow-up. The logs should be in "AppData\LocalLow\kemomic\Illusive Domain" that you can get to from running %APPDATA%. 

Ideally, I'd like the player to be able to just jump straight into the action, similarly to how Furi starts off with a boss. In practice, there's too many mechanics that trying to cram it into a tutorial boss in previous builds just made for a boring boss and a bad tutorial, so the current tutorial is an attempt at shortening it as much as possible. 

The jacket is removed during the cutscene, and it should be reset if the fight restarts. 

I think ~1h is a pretty good time, especially if you haven't played similar games. I'm at around 6-7min myself, but my other friends took 30min and 1h respectively to clear it.

This is really an interesting design issue. Reminds me of Bushido Blade, getting thrown in right away. What about some sort of branching prologue?

> You throw the player into a boss fight right away

>> If the player gets stomped, the player goes into a tutorial section

>>> After the tutorial section, the player has to either redo the first boss, or go on with the second boss (with the first boss reappearing later)

>> If the player already has the skills, the tutorial section is skipped (optional)


Or maybe unlocking pratice sessions. After a loss, the player unlocks an optional training session. Maybe based on the performance, like: never parried => how to parry.
