    HYPER DEMON is a game that throws a legitimate banquet of techniques and mechanics at you. This guide is an attempt to make it less overwhelming.
    It is not a guide that covers everything, and there's several complex mechanics that I've not addressed. For a beginner or intermediate player though, hopefully this is still a wealth of useful information for you, and can be applied to your own runs in some small way. As well as that, all the secrets of how I play at a high level are exposed here, so I'm expecting to be pushed down the leaderboard in no time.
    This video took a long time to develop. If you're sticking around to read about it, initially there was a concrete script for this video, but I found it too rigid to perform and went with a similar improvisational style as seen in the Devil Daggers guide. The editing process is what really took some time, and while the middle is still a bit ropey in spots, I tried to contextualize discussion points with footage that was relevant whenever possible.
    The sound, especially my voice recordings, are not perfect, but they're in mono to cut the edge off a microphone that was really keen on popping every few seconds (which I've tried my best to muffle or silence where I found them). But all in all, this video was a great journey to make and hopefully it's an enjoyable and informative watch.

    While I didn't learn anything new per se, seeing a ground-based run executed with your level of proficiency helped me understand more intuitively how I should go about improving my times. My current approach is extremely aggressive but I lose a lot of time with the squids and spiders. Let's just hope this time I can actually apply my ideas. I want my 350.

    Thanks for the guide, I'm currently at around 80 seconds so uhh, not a great time but god damn the game is fkn amazing so I'll keep trying. Also, did you use the Idle Theme as a background music for this guide? The version in your vid appears to be a bit different than the one available on youtube. Is that the in-game version of the track perhaps?

    nice vid, im ranked 110 ish and am trying to push through a score of 300. Always nice to see other people strategies or insights. By any chance, I did not play devil daggers ever but I know it has shotgun tech. From what I can tell it seems Hyper Demon has the same mechanic, do you notice any micro techs like that in your own runs?

    • @lsaille1
      @lsaille1  Год назад +2

      shotgun tech functions more or less in the same way in HD as in DD, I played so much DD it's muscle memory, but there's a few shotgun tech guides out there for DD if you want to refer to them. Movement in HD is different, and I think the way you are moving around the arena is always going to affect the way enemies react towards you as a result.

      @@lsaille1I thought shotgun tech doesn't exist in HD? At least not in the "you can hold lmb after shooting to move the hand back to the front so you can shoot again faster" way. I haven't played HD a lot, but the shotgunning is just rhythmical clicking from what i've noticed

    • @lsaille1
      @lsaille1  Год назад +2

      @@nachfullbarertrank5230 Yes, I believe that's the case, recently playing DD again and HD doesn't really use 'tech' so much as just shooting in a consistent rhythm, which gives no great leap in terms of optimal damage output compared to what DD tech does. I'm still learning new things about the game day by day.

  • @griglog
    @griglog Год назад

    Is it viable to keep the spawners alive to farm score from big skulls? Yes, when it only spawns one skull it gives no benefit, but each next is +3

    • @lsaille1
      @lsaille1  Год назад +1

      It regushes every 20 seconds but unlike Devil Daggers, it doesn't spit out a second horned skull. So there's no viable reason to keep them alive in this game.

    Why do some people have those symbols on their hand? I'm not talking about the gems or beams, but the weird diamond with the eye shape.

    • @lsaille1
      @lsaille1  10 месяцев назад

      It's a ranking for the top ten players, if you see it in a replay, that's a symbol that it came from a top ten run (at the time).

    • @lsaille1

      Not really, you can definitely shotgun with some precise timing but it doesn't really speed up the damage output, at least not as much as I initially thought.
