All good. I'll say that the stealth part was clear to me, but after doing this a few times I was just inclined to keep running through the parts I did a million times.

I don't quite understand. Can I ask for a more detailed explanation on this if possible?

Basically, as you're hitting a robot, it'll keep firing into you, even before death. It's usually kinda random for what rate they'll shoot at, but if you don't get caught it doesn't happen. Might be a skill issue.

The post-mortum firing is also fine in that case, cuz if you fix those other bullet issues it'll be a lot more comfortable.

Ah I see, I should have made checkpoints early on or at least a way to make checkpoints, I'd say, it is one of the weaknesses of the stealth format, I realized that after testing the game, there would be parts I would rather not do the same thing over and over again.

There is a way to stun lock them but that requires very precise timing and frame counting. Very Impractical method but somewhat viable. I tried to simulate a situation on whether you take them down head on but risk getting shot down for every missed timing or do it the safer way and initiate a stealthier approach. The former does sound like cheesing though and is more appropriate on a speedrunning context. Overall, it works as intended but clearly needs more balancing to make other methods viable. I'll see what I can do in the future.
