Another minor update: five out of seven spots have been filled, and one boss is complete!

This project looks amazing, nothing better than a challenging Boss Battle is not? I'm looking forward to the publication of this episode!

I suggest you put any Boss of Super Metroid SNES (except Kraid, because I'm already using it on my episode

)

I've been thinking about this for a while: what if people get stuck on a boss with no idea on how to beat them? I try to design my bosses so that doesn't happen, but it's always possible. My solution is to add a 'Help Room' to the hub, which is your go-to place if you're stuck on a boss (Or if you feel cheap) What do you guys think?

Personally, I think that takes the fun out of playing the game. If the player knew exactly what to do to every boss from start to finish, it'd be boring. That's how I see it, at least.

I suppose that makes sense. I can try to keep things vague, but let's just see how the poll turns out.

By the way, the boss lineup has been finalized, so suggestions are CLOSED now!

Using the Help Room would ruin the fun (or the frustration) of finding the way to kill a boss.

What about a harder version of the bosses? Like the True arena from kirby.
You'll unlock it after killing every normal boss.
Completing all the harder bosses will unlock a secret. Maybe an easter egg on The Black Tower? ^.^

That would mean I'd have to make 14 bosses, and considering I've already got plans for when I finish the initial seven, that just isn't gonna work for me.

Dang, I got bored with making normal levels, so I decided to make a Boss Rush cuz I like making bosses.

"Heh imagine if there was just some murderer in this house like in the horror movi-"

*Scissorman appears*

"Scissorman,what are you f*cking seven?You are aren't you?"

Anyways,this looks like a pretty nice boss rush anyways!It seems to be designed pretty nicely,so I wish you the best of luck on it!

Please, just stop this argument, there is no reson for it.

Pardon my language but,please stop shit posting this topic please.
Dont make a wonderful project thread become ruined.

Brick, do you plan on releasing anymore pictures or information or are you making it a surprise?

Flying Brick · Postby **Flying Brick** » Fri Nov 07, 2014 8:19 am

There is one thing I feel needs to be told; I'm gonna have to cut Scissorman from the lineup. I'm really sorry to hype people up for that and then cut him, but at present, there's no way to make a half-decent chase boss without it being VERY easily exploitable. Sorry...

No problem, but will you say to us who will replace the Scissorman? And will you inform about the progress of the episode (if it is at 50%, 75%, etc.)?

Sorry for the Bad English

Flying Brick, just to say, when the project gets released, you did say that some of the bosses were based on our ideas, right? So can you like put a sign near it saying what idea gave you the idea for that boss?

AirSeus · Postby **AirSeus** » Fri Nov 07, 2014 10:36 am

Flyingbrick, do you rekon we should tell them about the plan, or just leave it untill the right time?

Flying Brick · Postby **Flying Brick** » Fri Nov 07, 2014 10:51 am

Might as well put it out there right away.

I've decided to merge my project with Airseus' next Boss Rush episode. It's a pretty big decision, but this won't affect the bosses themselves in any way. The only negative point I could think of is that my work might come out later than expected. In any case, keep an eye out for Boss Rush 10! I'll be doing my best on it!
