Hi Zanthia,
I made it through part of the final fight, but when I got to the part where you had to hit him so many times without being knocked down, I couldn't do it. I did ok with the left, up, and right, but when he was above me, he knocked me down every time. I couldn't get out of the way.

It took both of us using the keyboard to win Looters Cavern 4 and the last 2 Slaughterhouse races, but we had fun doing it.
When I get her back over here, we will try the final battle again since your husband said it wasn't too hard. I just need to figure out how to get enough hits in without getting knocked down.
Thanks
Kay

Kayc, with regards to the section of the final battle when the boss is above you: you shouldn't try to dodge it. You need to activate your range attack and quickly fire a disc at him. It will then repeat its pattern of attack.

Hi Feardust,
Thanks! I went back and tried that today, but by the time I activate it and fire the disc, he has already knocked me down. I guess I'm just not fast enough.
I will keep trying for awhile. I have enjoyed the game even if I can't finish the final battle. Thanks
Kay

kay,

this is what my husband said to do:

To beat this boss you need to hit when he appears on the Left, Right, Left and Right. He will then hover above you. When he is above you, you need to dodge him (right mouse button). After you dodge him he will then appear on either the right or left side - hit it. The pattern will then repeat itself. Important note: If you don't dodge him when he's above and then hit him on the side, you will not beat him no matter how many other times you hit him.

You're welcome, Kayc. I didn't realise that there was an alternative solution until I read Zanthia's post. Her method sounds a lot easier and far more elegant. I must go back and play through the final boss fight again; I rather enjoyed it.

Hey Zanthia, and feardust,
I did it! I finally beat the final boss. Zanthia go give your husband a big hug for me. Tell him thank you very, very much. His tip to use the right mouse button to dodge is what I needed to do. A little later, it took a while getting use to hitting on the reverse side but wasn't too bad. Thank you all so much, I didn't think I was going to be able to finish this game.
Kay

great going Kay

gave him a big hug for you

Wonderful news, Kayc.

Hey Zanthia,

I never even thought of dodging when I was playing (I wish I had, I might have beaten it faster). I just timed (though it had to be perfect and released just right and I got it wrong more than a few times) a charged attack and was able to hit him when he was above me.

Congrats, Kay.

Kevin

Vik,

i didn't think of it. WHen my husband was doing that battle and the boss never seemed to die, we realized something must be wrong with the way we were doing ht ehitting when he was above. so i went to the official forums and that is where i learned of the dodging is the easiest way to do it. other methids were mentioned including i thihk what you described as it did involve perfect timing.

I tried (and died) to play through the final boss fight yesterday. No matter how many times I hit him, he didn't die. I come here and read the above. Now that I know I'm doing it wrong (haha) and want to beat him, I have a couple of questions.

#1) I have gotten through the game fights by just wildly hitting buttons. How do I attack to the left or right? What buttons exactly do I hit to make her do certain moves? Let's say she facing the the big boss, straight front and the 3 eyed thing appears on her left. What do I do?

#2) The super attack never worked for me during the game because I was always hit while powering up and that negates the powering sequence. I would hold the left mouse button until I saw a purple power glow, then release then tap wildly. If I held it any less nothing ever happened. Is something suppose to happen?

I never beat the pallet game and this doesn't look any better, not when precision is needed

Ok, I've figured out that I have to use the arrow keys. I'm stuck at the reverse control part. It took me long enough to remember the unreversed part.

I also figured out that I only need to send 3 pigs into the boss to end that part of the fight; that's a big help. I also was able to use the pink energy thing to kill the double H's. woohoo, I'm on my way...right?

I have to say that I am not enjoying the reserve control part. There was a part like this Arabian Nights and it wasn't fun either.

You almost have it made now. Hitting on the reverse side was hard to do, but you will get use to it after trying for awhile. I didn't enjoy that part either. Good Luck!
Kay

Thanks Kay I like the support!

Well, I think the game took pity on me and let me finish, haha. Don't know how I managed the last two hits needed as that thing would follow me around the platform as I dodged it. I went around 5 times once before it struck me dead.

I watched all the way to the very end of the credits. What's with that thing on Pey'j's hand? A sequel perhaps?

How can one post a finishing score if it didn't let you save after the end fight? I'm off to Ubisoft to see if I can make sense of that
