Bouncer

Bouncers are a type of enemy that appear exclusively in Chapter 5: Deviance.

Appearance
They are short, stocky men with a focused expression on their faces and a scar on one of their eyebrows, who wear suits that come in white, black, and pink, and also wear white earrings. They also wear brass knuckles as well.

Description
They are introduced as a pair, with one talking to the other, named Igor, about how he plans to quit his job and be more involved in his wife and daughters life, a plan that unfortunately never comes to fruition, as he is beaten to death by the protagonists.

Enemy Behavior
Their primary form of attack is to lunge forwards and grab you, then preform a headbutt that can knock you down. This move deals a deceptive amount of damage, due to the player falling to the ground counting as a second hit. They will also preform a series of punches when at close range.

Strategy
Bouncers are at their most deadly when they are in groups, as they can preform their grab & headbutt attack and trap the player character in a loop of being headbutted by multiple Bouncers. This can get downright lethal on Hardcore Mode, as the damage from falling on the ground is increased greatly on that difficulty, because of this, it is reccomended to launch them into eachother by throwing them or preforming an Ejection when doing a combo.

Trivia

 * If a player character gets too close to either of the duo of Bouncers guarding the door to the club, they will throw a punch that knocks them over.
 * The one who talks about quitting his job for his family might be a reference to an infamous win quote of Guile from Street Fighter 2.
 * They are the only enemies to have a visual novel style dialogue sprite, a scrapped feature from an earlier version of the game that was likely removed to reduce the work load.
