Problems with Xbox One Edition.
Got for Xbox so I could play it with friends outside of my cramped room, and it's been amazing.
However, there are a few problems I'd like to address to the devs. Since I can't find any other way, I'll say 'em here.

The main two issues I've had is with freezing.
The game freezes for a few seconds whenever a boss has been beaten, it's not a massive bug, but it worries me.

The second freezing issue, however, it's really annoying. Parrying an attack is crutal in this game, but this bug makes it way to risky to do. Sometimes, whenever I successfully parry something, I'll also get hit somehow as well. While it may seem not that bad, it's what happens when you die at the same time as parrying successfully that's bad. The game locks itself. Freezes. You can't input anything, the game just stops. You still hear the music and can see the hair lines n' what not, but everything else is frozen, making me have to exit out of the game and relaunch it. It's especially annnoying when me and a friend are anear the end of the level. One of us is at one health, they parry something right yet die at the same time, and the game just freezes. Making us have to go through everything again.

Not sure about the first one, but the second one is intentional, there's a powrup later that attacks and parries at the same time, and I assume that these situations where you get hurt from a pary are where it comes into play.

The game getting frozen aftering parrying doesn't sound intentional lol

I have 0 ♥♥♥♥♥ given about a whale who purchased the most casual of all :GameConsole:'s concerns. Freezing probably the Bone's fault most likely. I've never encountered any issues with the GoG version. Maybe get the XboneX for the 30fps still and fake 4k. Maybe that will fix it lol

TC is asking for help, not your opinions on the Xbox 1. Quit trolling please.

Ah yes, it's obviously the consoles fualt.
Even though it can run almost any other game we get for it flawlessly, even this one as the freezing only occurs when beating a boss or dying durring a parry, but naaah.
Just some stupid lag from an underpowered console.

Next you'll be telling me the Switch has no games.

Anyway, yeah. This obviously isn't a problem with the console, it's a problem with the game itself. (Similar to the laggy homescreen transition in Sonic Mania.) I was bringing it to the attention of the game devs, so they can hopefully fix it. Go take you and your troll and go find a more logically way to complain.

I haven't had that problem with a freeze when the boss is beaten however, I do keep repeatedly seeing the game freeze at random times when I parry. At first I though nothing of it but, its a constant and has happened so many times I felt that something must be up. This has occurred many times during Beppy the Clown and Cagney Carnation (the only reason it hasn't happened with other bosses is probably because I didn't parry as much with them) It normally happens after a few retries (no specific number).

Parrying and still getting hit has only occurred once but, parrying and the game freezing happens so many times that I can say with confidence that it will continue to.

The only difference between you and me is that I am on PC (laptop to be specific) So it can be said that this is not just a problem with the XBOX ONE edition but the game itself. It never freezes on me unless its during a parry.

I really hope this bug will get fixed soon. Parrying is not only crucial but very fun. Its an annoyance if I have to ignore pink objects against my will because there is a chance the game will freeze.
