Okay I waited for the update to ask this, but... Remember that the pole can be aimed to a head strike or a low-strike?, well, ever since last version I haven't ben able to, does anyone have the same issue (playing on a laptop, so no clue if it's because 3-key limit input registration or something of the sort)
Edit: I managed to clear the content with a 0 sex count, however I did got grabbed a few times (sometimes intentionally, as it can be used to trade a small amount of health in order to skip some more annoying enemies), trick is fairly simple, surrender (press and hold Z) let yourself get grabbed, then mash X to get free, run while invulnerability is up, in case someone having issues :v
