yeah, it took me a while to get this down

two main things:
- the timing is fairly precise - about the time you can say 'boop' from the moment the yellow flash appears (slightly under a second, maybe 0.5 or so)
- you cannot dodge while in an attack animation - this means you need to quickly learn how many attacks you can spam before you have to stop and dodge

the second one was the thing tripping me up this entire time
