#boss idea

[attioking]

I had an idea for the final boss in ultrakill.

So the level is titled "Every last drop" and it consists of a long hallway displaying your rank on all the stages, as well as a lot of terminals(47 of them) At the end of it is a single wretch, the weakest enemy in the game, and it just runs from you. Never attacks.

After you kill it party confetti flies and low effort celebration noises occur and a banner falls saying "congratulations! Hell is empty!"

And then you hear a slow clap as the room then flows into a single point as hell takes a humanoid form, slowly clapping.

It then congratulates you on emptying hell and killing it. Oh its not dead yet but it will starve now. And it's glad that you did so. It allowed you to. After all, hell is pointless suffering. And before it wasn't pointless, it was for hells survival, but now hell is killing itself, making it pointless.

It then tells you to kill it and take every last drop, but it won't give it to you. You have to suffer first. And begins the hardest boss fight.

Phase 1 is fast paced, with unparroeables galore and a few undodgeable attacks. Hell has a chunky hp bar, one of the biggest in the game. At 1/4 of his bar left he stops goes, let's go down memory lane. And

Phase 2 brings you to the first boss room in the game. You fight that boss and go to the next. Repeat for all the bosses, prime sanctums as well. Also if you die here you go back to the start of phase 1. When you beat the last boss you go to

Phase 3, which is just phase 1 but faster, you lose half your Healthcare, and enemies continuously spawn with no limit. Die here and it's still back to phase 1. Don't worry. You get a checkpoint after this phase. Because

Phase 4.

He just summons. EVERY. SINGLE. BOSS. AT. ONCE. And his hp doesn't fall below 1 until all the bosses are killed. (Note: the earthmover is a boss, but only the static security system, not the cylinder brain room). And that's it. Also as the bosses die the music slows down and instruments drop off until only hell is left and the music stops. Just silence.

Is it hard? Yes. Is it unfair? Yes. Is I torture? Yes. Why? As hell said at the start of the fight, you have to suffer for it.

Thing I did for a boss concept challenge thing. I kind of rushed this really hard. I should have spent way more time on it.  heck, the contest isn’t over for a few more days.. maybe some other day I’ll redraw this, and put more time into it.

Listening to dancing mad and I got an RPG final boss idea

Cliche Final Boss is God You Gotta Kill but also alongside the holy garbs or lack there of and wings they use to fly their arms and hands are over their head because . .

. . . Their wrists are handcuffed together . . . And those cuffs are tied to a stiff chain with no end in sight, only ever pointing straight up into the sky, even as the Final Boss stays afloat gracefully with those wings as if those cuffs and chain don't bother them at all

And also that may not be the final boss™. Maybe

A few years ago I had a really cool secret boss idea, and I’ve just come across the notes I wrote down on it, so I’m just gonna transcribe it here.

I call it The Stargazer.

As you progress through the game, there are times you come across a person who asks you to watch the stars with them. The moon is there, and it stays in the same position, at the top middle of the sky. Beginning as a shaded new moon, every time you sit to watch the stars, it gets a little bigger and waxes a little more.

Eventually, the moon becomes a full moon, and the person asks you to watch the stars with them again. As you watch the night sky, the moon bathing you in its glow, something changes.

The moon blinks.

And then every single star in the sky blinks.

As you watch, a massive entity tears itself from the night sky, their body an enormous conglomeration of thousands of eyes, each a star, with the moon being the central, and largest, one of them.

They’ve been watching you.

I’m torn between the idea that, after you beat them, there are either no more stars in the sky, or, from their body, a nebula forms and replaces the stars in the sky.

Platformer boss idea

Spike Boss

Wave: A wave of spikes goes across the ground.

Spiked Floor: The boss will wind up, then stomp, covering the whole floor in spikes for a split second.

Firer: The boss fires a couple spikes directly at the player.

Jumping Spikes: Two giant spikes jump across the arena slowly. They leave two spikes behind where they hit.

Big Jumping Spike: One giant spike jumps across the arena. When it lands, smaller spikes briefly appear where it hit.

Rising Platform: A part of the floor comes out and crushes into the ceiling.

Spike Barrage: The boss enters the center of the screen, begins revolving, and fires a spiral of bullets.

Shatter: When very little health is left, the boss will wind up, then shatter if the player does not intervene. The shards will then fly rightwards across the screen one at a time. This attack backfires.

EX attacks:

Gigant Wave: The wave of spikes is longer.

Sharp Spiked Floor: The floor stays spiked for much longer.

Rapid Firer: The spikes move faster.

Hurdle Spikes: The spikes slide instead, leaving behind small spikes that quickly despawn.

Bigger Jumping Spike: The spike is larger.

Spike Barrage: The spiral goes for longer.

Shatter: The shards the boss splits into are smaller, and there are more of them. Rising Platform is removed.

Targeting Ceiling: Spikes appear at the top of the screen, and fall down when the player is near them.

Alternating Spikes: Every other tile has a spike burst out of it.

Every time a spike spawns in, it has a chance to be a defect. At least two (one in EX mode) defect spikes will appear during every attack. It will be gray as it moves. Once it hits the floor, it will stick and become so much taller that it cannot be jumped over. When the defective spike is walked into or attacked, it will fly horizontally away. If it hits the boss, then it will do severe damage.

Maybe the boss could look something like this?

Another boss fight idea

The vine guardian, guardian of the vine;

A stone sentient statue that is keep up with vines, mostly like strings. The guardian uses them for ir to move. It has a spear that is covered in vines, it deals a great damage

The main gimmick of the fight would be to it use a random vine every 3 turns, like using the "road work ahead? I sure hope it does" vine to pulls the ground a bit apart. Or using the "Fresh a va ca do" to give you one fresh a va cad o

Also, it can also use it's vines to attack and defense, like to form a shield of vines or a secondary spear, or just pulls you around with it

I have no idea who would need that but i was thinking about a friend auto correcr, and had a idea for a boss fight

So! The auto correct could be a robotic copy of the person it was used, or could be a giant computer

The main gimmick of the fight would be for every 2 or 3 turns to it to auto correcr your weapon/armor/item to something else, like putting something on google auto translate 10 times then translate back

Another gimmick would be for you to choose a attack from previous enemies to it to do, but it auto correct the attack to something else, so you still have no idea what will come out
