Alternation

[NOTE: Play the Windows executable for the best performance and visuals. Lots of particles are cut out here.]

Lost in the void, you once again encounter your dangerous alternation. Will you manage to survive once more?

Fight against a challenging boss, much like yourself, but significantly more POWERful than you in every aspect. In order to survive, you must constantly be on the run from the tremendous force chasing you down.

Controls:

• WASD and SPACE for basic controls.
• Dash - Left-shift or K
• Reflector - Left-click or J

Tips:

• Attacking the boss fills the yellow stagger bar. Fill it up to stun the boss and launch a counterattack.

• Control of your dash power is key, without it you can't move around, block attacks or even deal damage. Cancelling dashes conserves some momentum, so make use of it!

• Take it slow and play around health pickups. Health pickups spawn in a fixed order, so move closer to where the next one will spawn when you can. Don't get greedy for hits!

And also a special thanks to everyone in the BIGMODE discord server for answering my endless questions, especially when it came to art. Also shoutout to my friend who gave me advice on the soundtrack, he isn't a game dev but he is indeed epic.

Known Bugs:

• Boss's health bar empties out the wrong way, however, it still shows the correct value.
• The boss sometimes clips into the ground, however, this is very rare and the boss will always shortly teleport out.
