It's the shittiest move in the game but worth the most points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougy is right. You will get the rythym after a couple runs of headbutting everyone. And I initially thought the game would be super lame playing it that way, but its not. Its actually way more interesting to juggle because you will lose life even doing it really well. So every level you have to decide at what point in your lifebar you need to take a more conservative approach. You also dont get hearts very fast headbutting all the time, so that becomes a factor too. Stick with it - its fun as hell this way I swear!
