I made a new boss that guards an essential power-up! He's armored, so you'll have to hit him in the face until he gets angry enough to charge you, revealing a weak point (you won't be relying on RNG).
Level Design Update 2
After finishing the boss, I started working on the village and the top left half of Shadow Caverns. The demo will likely end once you get to the village so I'm almost there!
Other
The original version of Blooming Darkness actually had 3 bosses programmed that were present in test builds. One was the light warrior and another was the armored beetle.
One more to remake!
1The Blooming Darkness demo has just released! There's quite a bit of content and it's free! So, grab your keyboard or controller and try it!
Have fun and please give me honest feedback

This ability won't be in the demo, but I wanted to show it off anyway. Also, this was totally done first try and was definitely not spliced!
Siblings, am I right?

I updated some old art of mine to fit my game's newer style! What do you think? Also, thank you guys for your patience and support!
I added a proper intro for a boss I showed off a while back! I've sent out the demo to a few people to playtest it

Blooming Darkness demo is now scheduled for release next week! Things never go well whenever I make plans for this stuff, but I'm fairly confident this time!
