Well, ive finished the fight!

How to fight Gallius

  • Open your inventory
  • Select the Portable Gallius
  • pray to god that you dont get randomly crit oneshot

Theres also a CHEAT item that increases your level by 1, fills your inventory with half hearts and gives you the Dull Greatsword, Dull Knives, and the Thorn scarf! (so you actually cant lose unless the boss oneshots you!

Little notes:

  • Gallius has an INVENTORY! (3x Giant Blok head, 3x Painkillers, 3x Dopamine injections)
  • From personal experience, id say Gallius is like 3x harder than The Archer
  • The fight theme slaps

If recommend fighting Gallius at LEVEL 6-8 For the best experience!

While i was at it, i added some small changes

  • Mid-battle stat changes were COMPLETELY REWORKED (they were so unbalanced holy crap)

  • Enemies have little effects if they land an attack like the player

  • Theres a little effect whenever you land an attack directly in the center!

  • Critical Slash has gotten YET ANOTHER BUFF: (2.5x Crit Chance → 2.6x Crit Chance)

  • Evasion difficulty tweaks

  • Removed some enemy spawns (One of them allowed you to skip the Big Blok fight)

  • Small Big Blok nerf

  • Itty bitty stat changes

  • Thorn Scarf buff (3 damage recoil → 2 damage recoil)

Theres probably some stuff that i missed but yeah this is it! Just a single fight and some tweaks!

so i just realized that fighting enemies you encounter in cutscenes (First fight monster & Big Blok) are extremely buggy if you fight them after losing to Gallius so use this version instead

I found a thing when you dash into the jump orbs in the mountain it sends you flying up (not really but it is quadruple the normal jumping)

atp i feel like i should add Gena to the list of things i need to finish along side the dating sim. Ive have the entire story planned out for a while (like in my head not written down or anything) and ive already put so much time into this, but i feel like doing that would beat the whole point of being retired

YESSSS NEW GENA CONTENT!!! :partying_face:
The tutorial and dash and double jump instructions are great!!
It’s always great to see when a game continues to be rebalanced after release (Like the new damage formula changes and things to make the game a bit easier)
Thanks so much for this huge update!!

Tiny little update on the state of the game

While ive been working in GMS2, RPGMaker MZ, and FL studio for the past few months and i havent really touched makecode in a good amount of time, Ive been working on adding more stuff to the earlier sections of the game to make the events of everything so far make more sense.

I MIIIIGHT have broken a few things in my current version (…maybe a little more than a few things-) but most of the problems are easily fixable so it shouldnt take TOO LONG :jack_o_lantern: to fix. So I might post an update to the game within the next month or 2 (DO NOT count on it. Im still technically retired.)

Side note: If anybody is interested, and the mods are cool with it, I could make a topic showing a little bit of the stuff ive done outside of makecode!
