Hi. Stage 2 boss's second attack is probably the most gimmicky one, so it might be hard to get from intuition. But I also think Lombard might be simply too slow to dodge it properly (I haven't done much balancing on that). I'm glad you didn't have any problems with the controls; it's been an uphill battle to get those to work properly. I agree the effects are way too underwhelming. As for fullscreen, I've added an option for it (though with no proper scaling, so everything will look fatter if your screen isn't 4:3). Lombard does not talk because he's a cool guy, and cool guys are silent. Or perhaps I just can't find a way to fit him in the scenario. He'll probably talk one day. Anyway, thanks for playing and thanks for the feedback!
