Hitbox abuse - Ketsui

Post by zakk »

Ever have one of those moments were you manage to keep your wits about you and barely dodge some stuff? It just happened to me three times in 12 seconds:

Of course it happens on a shit run...

I agree with sven, the dodge at around 10-11 seconds is quite impressive.
Talk about exploitation. :lol:

Yeah, pretty neat.

Bit OT: Does anyone else get this when they see gameplay videos and they observe the bullet stream and go 'nngh! NO! NOT THAT WAY! THROUGH THERE' in frustration?

I would've gotten through all that, then hit the one and only on-screen single bullet right after.

You know the last attack of the 4th Boss in Ketsui (you dodge it by moving around the entire screen clockwise or counterclockwise)? So one time I was going clockwise and got trapped (because he throws out reverse blue spam), so I went COUNTER CLOCKWISE into hell, and lived to tell about it.
Good. Bad. I'm the guy with the gun.

I do, but then I normally end up eating my words about 2 seconds later when a huge wave of spam utterly demolishes my path of choice.

The video is h.264.

The other links are just jpegs. I can't help you if those don't work.
