The title can be a bit confusing but it's a pun for whom the bell tolls. This does a role reversal with a kidnapped boyfriend, and the bad girl is a Bonnie and Clyde reference.
It takes a moment to get used to the controls for throwing that robot thing hat can bounce indefinitely (you can recall it) and sliding jump on purpose (don't duck while moving then jump if you want to normal jump), but there are unique mechanics.
It is also forgiving, with getting coins similar to shovel knight where you died. I also like the game boy color style graphics and presentation.
It took me a while to figure out skater's pattern as he can block quickly if you're not using the warped walls to hit him from behind. You also have to jump on him when he's struck and finally down, which yeah I edited when I forgot to do that (I forget if it's 5 hits but I'm sure there's other vids). The sliding jump could undermine or help you based on usage.
