@tye8238 Yes, I screen recorded the game on mobile lol I mean you probably could use the arrow keys using an Android emulator, but I did it on my phone, not a computer
This is insane! Wth?? 💜 I don't think I have the skill to use Olly's Flashlight. I need my charms. 😄 In normal mode, I can only make it to the Library or Dinette before dying, lol. I love Candies 'n Curses, by the way! There's just something about it that speaks to me. It's one of my comfort games. :D
Thank you! It definitely takes lots of practice to get the hang of, that's for sure. I love me a challenge, and Candies 'n Curses provides a ton of it when you use the right weapons and setup. I love the game too! It really is great and I always find myself coming back around to playing it. I'm super glad you enjoyed the video! 😄
Oh, just wait until you hit curse crusher mode with that dinky little thing. I died with Olly's flashlight equipped at ember cellar in curse crusher. That charm better be a good one.
I spent sooo long trying to beat the game with Olly's flashlight. I eventually managed to get all the way to pyro jack by using up a halo revive and a continue revive and from there on I abused zeke to get enough health to tank the last floor. The game can be seriously tough! I really appreciate how this challenge is equally as difficult for people that pay for stuff in-game and people who play for free.
Ik I'm pretty late but I just have to comment on how fricking impressive this is, only the ones who actually attempted this run understand how ridiculous it is that he gets hit so little during the clears before the boss, honestly just satisfying, you're my 🐐
@@greedbr8158 Thank you!! Yeah unfortunately it kinda sucks that I haven't been playing CnC recently at all but that was one of my favorite runs for sure :D
@@jordanius99 I love your skills since I completed the Olly's flashlight challenge only with the help of your video, I'd much appreciate tips from such a skilled person
@@kumaradityakashyap5569 Yeah, of course! I'll try to keep it brief, but there's some good ways to improve with Olly's Flashlight. The main thing is to target the stronger enemies (Toxo/Pyromancers, Spiders, Spitters, Flambeaus, etc.) and memorize where and when they spawn on each floor. It sounds difficult, but as you play, you get a lot more accustomed to it. It especially helps so that you don't get overwhelmed. You also wanna be jumping diagonally and moving around as much as possible. Don't stay on one floor too long and let others build up; instead, use your health as a resource and try to tank some damage to clear floors if you need to or find good openings. For treasures, any damage-reducing or HP-based treasures are best (Sugar Heart, Butterfly Sugar, Bubblegum, Jawbreaker, Halo Bar, Zappy Taffy, etc.). Companions are also really good, but most of them come at the cost of having to be dodged, so be careful of that. Undead Curse + Devil's Bargain is a great combo if you get lucky enough to get it, but Undead by itself is also really good, especially if you get good at chains to build your heart meter. That's the basis of a good run, but feel free to ask me any other questions!
Yeah, it's a bug in the current version of the game. Quite a few people are having that issue with beams, and to my knowledge, reopening or reinstalling the game seems like the only potential fix.
You get a charm called Photograph. I won't spoil it entirely, but it's more for lore purposes and isn't good. But if I had to give you some tips for the run, the main thing is practice. Start from normal mode for better treasures and target stronger enemies like Spitters and Toxo/Pyromancers. It also helps to memorize when and where they spawn for each stage, generally. If you can, get Undead + Devil's Bargain, as it'll help you immensely, especially combined with Zeke. All companions are also quite good as well, as long as you can dodge their friendly fire. Keep at it and you'll get it in no time! :)
This looks like it would be a billion times easier with a keyboard or a controller. I would really like to know if there's a way because controller support is the only thing I wish this game had.
You could probably do it with an emulator if I had to guess, but you'd have to look into it Even on mobile I don't think the movement is that difficult if you get it down right but that's just me I suppose Also I think there's a joystick mode in-game so even that might help but yeah I'd try looking into setting up a mobile emulator on your computer (if you have one) and trying to use a controller with it
There's a lot of things you can do, mostly consisting of little techniques like using the diagonal jumps to your advantage and targeting stronger enemies (Flambeaus, Toxo/Pyromancers, Spiders, etc.) and knowing where they spawn. But generally practicing movement also helps quite a bit. Luck plays a good role, too. Ideally, you wanna aim for Undead Curse + Devil's Bargain since you'll get a huge amount of SHP that you can increase indefinitely if you do well with comboes/chains. Of course, health and damage reduction candies help a ton as well, and so do any of the companion curses (if you can dodge them well). Every little bit helps in a run like that, so keep practicing 'til you find what works!
i think that depends the screen of your device, like mine is a xaiomi redmi s2 and shows only a little of the ceiling, and i tested the game on a samsung galaxy a13 and shows everything, so...
When you complete normal mode with it, you get a charm called Four-Eyes that lets Olly join and fight for you. When you complete CC mode, you get another secret charm (I won't spoil it just in case).
dude i knew i had to watch someone else play to understand this game better. everuthing is so hectic and fast paced that i forgot it was even possible to memorize a bunch of stuff like the attack patterns of bosses and prioritizing shitfuck enemies like flambes or spitters. you forgeet to even do that so ur onky way of improving is just dodging better, which is okay but womt go very far if ur not smart about what to kill and what to kill later.
Yeeaahh honestly once you start to learn the spawns it becomes more manageable, but you can't manage everything, and as you play more and more you learn the strategies :]
Ah, yes, the dreaded Necro Scholar. Let's see. So first there's the mini skull attack, which is pretty straightforward. You wanna just sit in the corner opposite to her and try to dodge any skulls that come your way while also killing the enemies that spawn. You also have the bat attack, which is also straightforward. Stay at the bottom floor and go to the middle of it to see which bones fall first, then dodge. For the bats, you'll have to be careful if you're using a beam, since it can be tough to hit them with their sporadic movements. Wait until you see a good opening (AKA where the bats get low enough for you to hit them) and jump in, but try not to take too long or you'll miss your chance to hit Necro Scholar herself. The hardest is the big laser skulls attack. What you wanna do is look at the eyes on the skulls, since you'll see that they have a slight startup time before the laser actually fires at you. Wait until the eyes are about to cross over the floor above you, then jump to avoid being hit by the laser and the next row of skulls. Some of the other videos on my channel might also help demonstrate these techniques, so try to see if you can replicate the strategies. Hopefully this helps!
That was some show of legit skill man.... 👍 Awesome Edit: do you play by two fingers or something like that? how can you manage To move like that ? Edit2: also was flashlight your main weapon of choice in the initial stages of the game ?
Thanks man! So I actually only use one finger, but I use my right index finger, not my thumb. It definitely gives me more control, but I've practiced it quite a bit too, which is how I've been able to move so well. As for which weapons I've used from the start, I stuck with lanterns for quite a while. In fact, beams (AKA flaslights) were the type that I started using last. I used lanterns mostly at first, then switched to blades when I started to speedrun and learn the game more, and then I went to beams to really test my skill. Now, my mains are still mostly lanterns, but I sprinkle in some of the other weapons here and there when I play.
@@jordanius99my main is the blade type. I purchased the necro scythe two days ago and have been in love with it ever since. I somehow managed to run out my chain not because i got hit, but because there wasn't enough enemies onscreen to kill.
"Olly's flashlight gives you no tactical advantage whatsoever... But that was some fancy flashing... Pretty good."
I can see why Olly doesn't want to face all these ghosts. His flashlight is a death sentence.
Glad to see that people enjoy my content, thanks for your praise!

For some reason Olly’s flashlight doesn’t do any damage for me- does anyone know why ? (This happens with the fire flashlight too)
