Unfortunately, I only saw 4 of them...the game's bosses are well designed, but with loose controls and HUGE hitboxes it was incredibly difficult to even kill the first one. I think the 'pun' of each boss taking 5 hits to kill wasn't quite worth the difficulty of running through the 3 or 4 cycles required to kill them, especially considering that figuring out the optimal strat for each boss involves dying a lot of times. I will say, I really liked the electricity boss in concept since you could abuse the left antenna to get in double hits per cycle, but the electricity moved so slow and with such a large hitbox that jumping over them was infeasible.\r<br\/>I think the game would be significantly more enjoyable with tighter controls and less hp on the bosses, but those are easy fixes. Congrats on the entry!"},{"author_name":"randoman","author_uid":"13710","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 1:13pm","epoch":1440421680,"text":"@sepharoth213 That was an amazing feedback, thank you very much! One of the tricky parts of designing each boss fight was determining the number of hits needed to take them down and I acknowledge now that 5 hits maybe was too much.

Sadly the jump is a bit wonky and the monster very slippery. But I'm guessing it's part of the design. Funnily, the first boss seemed to be the most difficult one.
