This update (4.1) is my first time playing this game and I just reached the genie fight. She seems impossible to beat.
My assessment of the situation:
- The fight with Tucker is relatively easy because of the Orgone Boost. Unfortunately the tactic of beating Tucker without the boost to save it for the genie doesn't work because you can't active the boost for the genie.
- After beating Tucker the game says Danny leveled up but that provides no extra stats or new abilities. So Danny has 300 HP and 150 EP for both fights. Basic punch deals 30 damage, Ghost Ray 60 damage. No way to interrupt or stun the enemy.
- Genie has 520 HP, Hammer attack deals 90 damage, "Charged" Beam deals 180 and cannot be avoided with Invisibility because she doesn't shoot as long as Danny is invisible so you either block and take 90 damage or attack and eat the whole thing and finally coming out of invisibility Hammer deals x1.5 damage (135). The only turn where she seem to do nothing is the first turn so Danny can get in a measly 30 damage for free.
- If I attack I'm also getting hit and due to the vast HP and damage gap this means I cannot win the fight. I need 18 turns with punches or 14 turns of punches +2 turns of Ghost Ray, 16 turns total to kill her. She needs 4 turns to kill me with her weak attack.
At this point I'm assuming there is either a bug somewhere or the fight was designed to be unbeatable without cheats/exploits.
