Hell Maiden - Demo - Dante weapons only

Pretty cool survivors-like demo that came out recently on Steam, I definitely intend to purchase the full game as well.

Dante is your starting character, if you game-over a few times you get access to Virgil's weapons, Horace's weapons are available as well once you do the mini-mission that I think should (always?) trigger on your second attempt. Both of those make clearing the demo significantly easier, however that does not happen in this run. Dante's weapons are generally not all that good although there's a few useful ones. I did not get all of them in this run but I still got the flamethrower which is actually really good. I think learning that the pots scattered around the map can contain lives really helps a lot, I did however not know about the items that collect all the EXP items on the map for you being into those. Somehow I got multiple of them to trigger during this run while I had not seen them at all in prior attempts.

Also some of Minos's patterns can be kind of cheesed, the laser wheels kind of do require somewhat tight dashes just in order to have enough dashes to get through. Sometimes I kind of messed up on those although I had more than enough HP entering her fight to afford quite a bunch of mistakes. Though it is probably fair to note that I am not particularly good at using a gamepad to play.

I am kind of hoping that some of the attack cards get rebalanced a bit in order to be more useful. Also hoping for more difficulty modes. Would be quite fun if this gets a bit more ridiculous.
