Stage 04 Easy
Easy difficulty is Ghost Babel with training wheels.
- More resources spawn
- Some bosses become easier
- Snake is built like a tank, needing a ration is fairly unlikely.
- Fewer guards and cameras
- One of the awkward aspects of Easy is that Alerts and Evasions clear faster than other difficulties.
- Guards without body armor die in 1 bullet, 2 bullets with body armor.
- Guards without body armor will die immediately if you triple punch them.
- There is one fewer turret before the chaff, but isn't worth the trouble picking up. Take the Badhumans line in the 2nd screen of Stage 04
- If you are confident in your play, skip the rations near the end and pick up the ration in the first screen of Stage 09.
- You want to pick up the R5 before the final dogs' screen! Clip here
Doors Puzzle
- Make sure to press the button on the edge closest to the next button
- Be careful not to mash while pressing and accidentally press again
- On the 3 shifts, you can press normally on the first then rapidly mash on the second to have the third one occur automatically (refer to the above bullet point)
- You can swap the first and second buttons in any sequence, but the preferred orders are listed below
