I have phase one down to a tee at this point and can do it without taking a hit most times. I suspect that somebody flubbed their hitboxes so the back end hits you rather than the sharp front end.Īnyway, the final boss is still just atrociously bad. I tried to keep an open mind as I did so and see if I could find the joy others are getting, but it was just as cheap as the first few times I played it - particularly the swordfish missile badniks, which exhibit zero consistency as to whether they will or won't hit you when going in reverse. So I've just pissed away another hour or so trying to fight Trip's final boss some more, which also forced me to go through Egg Fortress Act 2 again.
