When I designed this character months ago, she was made to be a bitter rival to Pinafore.

Her name in development was Gun-NIA, but now it's Mag-Nia.

...also, I was watching Wonder Woman at the time. Is she too much?

I'm feeling a bit more off than usual today.

Here, have some smaller weapons.

More BG layers, more garbage.

Maybe I should throw in a few towers of cars into the background.

Just because it's inspired by Seven Force doesn't mean it's gonna be a bunch of robots. Instead, Mag-Nia's gonna make her own weapons.

These GFX are probably gonna be used for masks and reference. I have plans for a sawblade form later.

Of course old-fashioned robots end up in the junkyard.

They aren't gonna be used in the convention level, so it's fitting here.

Also, the giant floating magnets and bulldozers don't discriminate. They harm all robots.

One part of me is telling me, "These weapons are way too big for Mag-Nia! Shrink 'em down to half-size!"

Meanwhile, another part of me is saying, "Wait, you can still use these for a more proper Seven Force-styled boss fight later on!"

Let's do both.

I realize that I don't need a fancy transition for Mag-Nia to use Seven Force-style weapons.

...but maybe I shouldn't use circles for the whip.

I've been working on a moving pulley that activates when you grapple to it. If it moves you into a solid block, you let go.

...now I've gotta figure out Mag-Nia and her amazing weapons.

If you need a sciencey explanation for how a giant magnet can float, it's the same way cars float: little rapidly-spinning magnets.

It doesn't make much sense in reality, but I'm sticking with this story.

This boss is done, more or less.

I'm gonna try to work in a different department.
