Tips for Battling Enemies:

1-Trying to collect every single coin or star dropped by enemies can leave you vulnerable to attacks while standing still.
For beginners, it is safer to focus only on the items that fall near Cosmo Lemon.Note: In this game, extra lives are not awarded based on score, so please avoid taking unnecessary risks.

2-Almost all enemies―even the tougher ones―will eventually leave the screen if enough time passes.
If an enemy feels too difficult, one valid strategy is simply to survive until it escapes.

3-Cosmo Lemon moves much faster sideways (left/right) than it does forward or backward.
Keep this in mind and prioritize lateral movement during combat―it will make most encounters much easier.

4-Extend Chips are hidden in various places across the map or carried secretly by certain enemies.
Collecting as many as possible to gain extra lives is a key to victory!

5-This game features an automatic difficulty adjustment system.
If the player is struggling, the game becomes slightly more forgiving.
Even if you take unexpected damage, please don’t give up―keep fighting!

6-When Cosmo Lemon is surrounded by a rainbow-colored barrier, you can damage enemies by deliberately colliding with them using the barrier.
Opportunities to use this are limited, but remembering it can be very helpful in certain situations.

7-Ground-based enemies do not cause collision damage even if you touch them.
If one suddenly appears close by, stay calm and deal with it without panicking.
