Common gameplay
The game series is a hack and slash where you play as Miley, having two attacks, a light and heavy. You also have a dodge and a jump button as well as a parry you can use by hitting the light attack before the enemy hits as the bubblegum takes a different form during each move. You are also able to combine light and heavy attacks in a rhythmic fashion to do a combo. The games also involve platforming on a 2D space as you go through levels with different objectives, although most end with you making to an end point. The games also have side quests where you help the resistance by revisiting older levels with a new task. The levels also hide both items that can expand your max life as well as coin you can use to mainly buy alt costumes (although the amount of things to buy expands in each game).
