Whoops! Where'd the time go?
I've totally forgotten to share clips because I've been so busy!

Have a cool @leafshiftgame.bsky.social combo leading into Engineer's strongest super move:

Stygian Impact!

I love to test the game's AI by having enemies fight each other.
Here's a short clip of two bosses going at it in a test room!

Even the AI knows how to do stylish combos in @leafshiftgame.bsky.social on the harder difficulties!

So you better be ready!

The Heavy Attack combo can be a little risky to use.
Good thing you can get a Shade Assist 👻 in
@leafshiftgame.bsky.social!

I always get stuck trying out more combos when I start recording because it's a lot of fun, so have another!

This one ends with a powerful level 2 super!

We've now landed on Bluesky!

What's more fitting than a little in-game clip?

Camera Shake has been added, making the impacts have more weight to them!
