Better weapons!<\/h4>\n
The starting weapon this time is a pistols\/katana combo — the initial attack is a katana slash, followed almost immediately by the pistols (it’s a delay of 100 milliseconds, or 6 frames, right now.) You can also select them separately and switch between them if you dislike the combo weapon. <\/p>\n Having constant access to the katana allows bullet reflecting to be a core mechanic. Now any purple-coloured attack can be reflected, and not just bullets — enemies’ physical attacks can be parried and turned against them, too. <\/p>\n Finally, Bleed 2 will have about twice as many boss fights as the original. Just sayin’. I also have plans for all kinds of new modes, powerups and other extras, but I’ll keep those vague until I know I actually have time to make them (the core game comes first!)<\/p>\n I hope this has got you a bit excited for the new game. I look forward to posting more about it as the weeks pass and development progresses!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hi! Welcome to the new site! (Or if you’re reading this in the future, welcome to… the site.) So, Bleed 2 is a thing! It’s a work-in-progress, big time (I don’t even know if it’ll be called Bleed 2 when it’s done. It’s just easier than always saying “the new Bleed” or “the Bleed sequel”.)

\n<\/a>You’ll be able to carry as many weapons as you like at a time, and I’m working to make sure each one is fun, powerful and unique. This may result in a few less weapons overall, but each one will actually be useful and viable in a variety of situations.<\/p>\nBetter gameplay!<\/h4>\n
\n<\/a>Expanding on bullet reflecting in this way adds\u00a0more options to combat, lends a certain rhythm to gameplay, and allows boss fights to be more exciting and varied! I think it’s a big deal.<\/p>\nMore more more!<\/h4>\n
