Hornet in a nutshell
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
I still have issues with getting attack timing/hitbox stuff to work in this game, so that's not helping.
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
I also wish my ghost would stop greeting me with a nail to the face.
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
BITCH YOU'RE COMING BACK WITH ME AND THAT'S FINAL

HORNET IS GOOD BUT SHE'S BRUTAL
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
It's not even an unfair fight or difficult to figure out or anything.
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Just...oof.
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
But anyway, I defeated her and now I'm trying to deal with two Moss Knights to get at a geo cache so I can get a mask upgrade or whatever the fuck that is.
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Also I swear I keep forgetting that the jump button is B in this game, instead of A.
moontouched
mask shards are heart pieces tl;dr
moontouched
collect four, get another pip of hp
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
THAT'S WHAT I FIGURED
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Should I be saving for that 1800 lamp from the shop first, or...?
moontouched
it'll help you access some places later on without having to go back up to get it
moontouched
that or the simple key that unlocks the door at the edge of the village is what i usually save for first
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
I did get that key, yes.
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
I've discovered Fog Canyon and also the Fungal Wastes, should I do one or the other first...?
moontouched
fog canyon you can't go far into, do fungal wastes first
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Yeah, I plurked it and then remembered that there was that black barrier I couldn't get past.
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
SHROOMS IT IS
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Mantis Lords 
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Thaaaat is probably a good place to stop for now...
moontouched
ahh, my favourite fight
moontouched
one of my favourite fights
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
I was not prepared at aaaaallll
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
In other news, I'm halfway to affording the lamp!
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Also those bouncy shrooms take some getting used to. :T

The Mantis Lords took me a while to beat. Don't give up! Have patience!
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
I literally got my ass kicked in the first three attacks so I got the impression that this was going to take a bit to deal with...
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
So I went exploring but then I died after saving one of the....caterpillar thingies....
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Fortunately I didn't lose that much geo so I think I might just be like "fuck it" and go fight the Mantis Lords the next time I pick up my controller.
