Don't watch this video if you don't want to be spoiled!









=================================================
Sonic Frontiers has been out for a few days now, and I've completed the game and really enjoyed it. And I'm playing it on a GTX 650, which is a GPU from 2012. The game's open zone areas were running at like 15 fps lmao.

Anyway, the game has a Ikaruga-style shmup minigame that it starts introducing from the third island as the "Commander program" that needs to be cleared to progress. Those are super simple but I had a feeling that they weren't going to throw in an entire gameplay style change for nothing, and they decided to make it the TLB of the game. Huh.

This run was done with no hits throughout the entire fight, and I also did not use the homing laser ability (which is charged by cancelling/absorbing bullets) since that basically performs a screen clear. The boss itself is actually really simple for a bullet hell boss... but Sonic Frontiers is not a bullet hell game, and its playerbase is on average going to have next to no bullet hell experience. So I'm not surprised that people are struggling with it; I hope that if you are having problems, that this video can help you.

I'll post more tips in the comments section as required.
