There is a different set of attacks in the air, however.\r\n\r\n\r\nIn game, you get a point for killing soldiers, but you DON'T get points for hitting them while they're already in the air.\r\n\r\nYou lose health every time you get hit by a bullet, but you can recover health by hitting enemies. You recover MORE health based on two things: how many times the specific enemy has been hit, and how strong the attack you are using is. Red attacks give you about 10x the health as normal attacks, so make sure to finish your combos with them!\r\n\r\nIf you're getting stuck at really low scores, try this (relatively) easy health combo:\r\nDown-ground, up-ground, forward-air\r\n\r\nIt doesn't net you a ton of health, but it gets you started understanding some of the crazier things you can do with Chrys. If you've got the hang of it, try landing one of these:\r\nDown-ground, neutral-ground, up-ground, up-air, neutral-air, forward-ground\r\n\r\nPretty tricky! Keep in mind that soldiers give you more health the darker they are, but once you've hit them 5 times, the rewards level out.\r\n\r\nI'll leave the rest to you to figure out. Have fun, and thanks for checking out my entry!\r\n\r\nIf you are having too much trouble, but you still want to see what the game has to offer, I've added a quick video of me playing through the game a couple times. Enjoy!\r\n\r\n\r\nThis was made using Haxe and Lime. The graphics were made with GraphicsGale, and the music was created and recorded on a Game Boy Color using LSDJ.\r\n","title":"Chrys"}
