I had a dream
Somehow I managed to squeeze in one more hour of Hollow Knight into my busy Monday, and somehow I managed to make some significant progress.
It began with me casually finding a new move.
Then I got some more essence.
Then I blew up all my geo here. Reminded me of the bank situation.
Can't get enough of flying around. I do it every opportunity that I get.
This guy was one tough nut to crack. Thankfully the bench was nearby. I think I got him on the fifth try. In my opinion, this one's about patience. Once you figure out the pattern, it's not that hard to evade his attacks, but you gotta wait for the right time to strike.
What I didn't expect is to get another new move, and an actually useful one! It's basically a double jump. Wow. Totally worth it.
This boss can be challenged a second time though, and it's more or less the same thing, just with a faster pace and less leg room. Couldn't figure it out today. Will try again later.
