      Hakita helps out the speedrunners and makes every fun glitch an intended mechanic. This game is the definition of "it's not a bug, it's a feature" and I couldn't be happier.

    Today i had a weird glitch that got me stuck inside the celling after i tried shotgun parrying to fly. The difference is that i was only partialy stuck, with gun sticking out. All i did was just to stay here and snipe down v2 with revolver, while he was just looking at me like ,,come down here b#tch i ain't done with you". All i did then was to repeat the shotgun parry after V2 got defeated and i got back to the map.
