* The game is intended for multiple play-throughs. Enemies do not scale in NG+. So you'll breeze through most missions the second time. But you are offered new choices, and can unlock new boss battles on each run. You'll also gain new parts and see different endings. | |||
* Legs are the biggest determining factor in how your build will play. Think of legs as your "class". | |||
** Bipedal legs tend to be fast general purpose builds. | |||
** Reverse joint legs have the best jumping and dodge distance. Good for aerial builds. | |||

* Bosses that seem too fast to catch can often be predicted. Learn their patterns and get ahead of them. Or just equip a fast booster and a light build and catch them. | |||
