We've got two polls we'd like all of you who played the Fire Level boss to check out and answer;http://strawpoll.me/5703424andhttp://strawpoll.me/5703429

Would help us fine-tune the game a lot, thanks! :)

Has the Fire Demo gone public? Or is this poll for the people who got the 99% version?

So, the second survey question asked which part of the boss encounter was problematic, and my answer was that it took too long to break the walls. To clarify my answer, without any visual indicators, the first impression you get is that your shots aren't having any effect. If the walls were to chip away as you hit them, I don't think there would be any problems, although maybe they have a few too many hit points..? /shrug/

I actually enjoyed the boss fight. Quite different from most games.

The thing that really fucked me over was the fact that the boss got faster every hit it took. At least i think thats what was happening.

I thought the boss was ok. I got through it no problem once I stopped trying to used charged shots at the walls :)

Cainarion

Is it normal to get teleported back to the entrance of the room each time I get in contact with the boss himself? Did I get the wrong version?Also what are the system requirement and will there be a way to reduce the quality of the game to get it to run better on crappy computer?

I played the boss about seven-to-ten times. I only made it to the room at the end of the first group of walls once. Those walls are just way too resilient. Even when I spam ordinary blasts and not charged shots, the little blobs end up catching me and delaying my excavations. The one time I reached the bigger room, I thought I could jump over the boss so he could tunnel for me (like that drill-tank in Armor Armadillo's stage in Mega Man X), but I couldn't make the jump.

Yeah the hardest part were the walls, took really long to destroy them before you ran out of room or got hit by the blobs

Peter Nash

Destroying the walls was pretty quick and I ran through the fire boss a few times without seeing him even on the screen...here's how: 1) Do "bunny-hops", Super Smash term for shortest jump possible, charge shots when smashing the walls. This cuts the delay of the charge shot because when you land it immediately resets her animation. 2) The second you see her glow with the energy bubble release the attack key, the charge shot either goes off or doesn't. It actually chargers pretty quick. If a player tried a basic attack or ground charge shots, it took too long or left them exposed to blobs.

MrPoppyPenguin

A simple charged shot backwards usually cleared all of the blobs away, or just left enough to easily jump over without skipping a beat. If I have one complaint, it's that the blob animation doesnt have time to finish if you want to see it. It only took two or three actual attempts to clear it consistently.

We support you! All 3 of you. No matter how long it takes, make it happen.

Boss fight was good. Easy when you figure out what you need to do. I did die twice before realizing i could break the walls though. I feel its good the way it is but if it was harder that would be fine too.

With the way the blobs are projected, it seems like this boss has a fair bit of RNG. A few times I would try to do charge shot runs and get mobbed by blobs and then run over by the boss. When I finally did beat it the blobs had gotten projected to where they didn't land near me at all and I was able to basic attack my way through the boss level, never even seeing the boss. Also I got this error: ERROR in action number 1 of Step Event for object __newobject76: In script enemy_update: Error in code at line 224: entity_rape_begin( other.id , other.rape_sprite[ irape_id , 0 ] , other.rape_sprite[ irape_id , 1 ] , other.rape_is_infinite[ irape_id ] , other.rape_suicide[ irape_id ] , other.rape_sound_frame[ irape_id ] , other.rape_sound_group[ is_dead , 0 ] , other.rape_sound_group[ is_dead , 1 ] , other.rape_sound_group[ is_dead , 2 ] ); ^ at position 62: Unknown variable rape_sprite or array index out of bounds Which meant no boss sexy times for me.

RAID!

i thought the boss was of the perfect difficulty. It was somewhat a challenge to break down the walls whilst trying to keep an eye on the blobs attacking. Once I just spammed the attack button and kept tracking right however, I cleared the boss room with not even a bit of hassle. Maybe I just got lucky. Either way, I encourage other testers to attempt the same strategy to avoid blatant exploitation.

Colin, and Maggie

Here is the hard part about the boss and it was that some of the wall took 3 to 4 charge shots to destroy them, that is insanely annoying. Though the boss is good enough its just the wall need to be easier to destroy that is the only thing that most likely needs to be balanced

Ceelin

I had little problem with the boss once I figured out what to do, however I did have issue with the room BEFORE the boss....the one where all the fans blow you around in a circle and you have to time your jumps on the various platforms. The one platform that is just one space wide was constantly messing me up, as I would always overshoot it or land just on the edge and the fans pushed me off before I could hit the jump button. Spent half an hour messing with that which made the boss seem easy in comparison.

So was there a demo sent out with the actual boss fight after the slimes?

Illacrimo

Where's the link to the most recent demo? I thought I had it, but I got to the end and the screen just turned black -_- Finding certain posts on Patreon is kind of hard or I just don't know how yet. Edit: Found it thanks, I totally forgot o the check there.

Derrmann

So, a bit of boss feedback. Personally, while I was able to complete the boss, I found it incredibly intensive on the attack button. It also seemed like once your were hit by the slimes in the early few walls it was pretty much game over. Perhaps giving us a few more easy walls could alleviate this, but overall the entire fight is a bit hard on the hands for those of us who are keyboard-bound. Perhaps slowing the rate at which the boss advances a tad (Not too much, but just enough to give the player a slight lead) would alleviate this. That said, it's not impossible, as is, so there might not be much of an issue. Just a thought.

Illacrimo

Edit: Okay so I beat it on the try right after I posted that lol. I just spammed jump and shoot. I still feel like it went on too long. Overall though the game is looking great and I'm looking forward to rest. Keep up the good work.

Mook

I found the boss to be difficult in a frustrating sort of way, I think the reason the boss gave me so much grief was that the attack won't allow you to press it as fast as you can, but it also doesn't register the second attack if you press it too quickly, so the result is that you have to pace yourself, which is worsened with the fact that when you get caught by a single slime you're pretty much dead, it can make for a frustrating experience when you are almost through, and you aren't sure whether to break out of the grab and keep going, or just suicide. for me it was often the latter.

Zelnik

do we get to see what happens when we lose against the boss yet?

Clompy

I voted that it was too hard but after giving it a few more tries I think the issue was the RNG. It seems more like you didn't want to give players an easy go, which I think is good. I think my problem was that if slime happens to bounce on you, you probably can't win. Other than that I enjoyed it, it seemed like it might have been slightly choppy compared to last time but that might have been my computer. Also aside from the intro scene is there only one cutscene with Faye? If there are more I better look through the maps a little more. Last thing I wanted to add, and forgive me everyone who doesn't like DP or girls who like DP, was that if every animation in game isn't done already I kind of had an idea. I have never seen this done and maybe because it is too hard to do, but would you ever consider an animation where she is getting fucked or pleasured vaginally and playing with herself, on her own, anally? Idk I can imagine some people not liking that, but I think personally it would be awesome and also I haven't seen it done before in a game like this. Just a thought. Keep up the good work, can't stress how excited I am.

I really want to express that there's no reason an amorphous blob would accelerate its movement while its losing mass and moving along a completely level surface. Also, was I supposed to escape from it as I did or turn around and destroy it somehow?

Robert Dant

Ok, it does look like its just missing a big cutscene. But I mean there's still no reason it would be able to go faster unless the area reached an incline. On a side note, getting all the items and doing all the platforming puzzles is quite fun. I like the air-jets juggling crap a lot. It's going to be fun to farm the endings in this story.
