The best way to let everyone play with whatever controller they want is to let players test it out, reconfigure it, and let them test it again.

...it's a bit messy, since this is a game that should support two players.

So it begins.

It doesn't help that the three forms share parts, but not body arrangements, but nobody's perfect.

...hopefully, people will see this guy as an homage, and not as infringement.

He's coming back. ...but just this once.

What do you do when one enemy type you used before doesn't show up well on your new level's background?

Draw new graphics.

It's a good thing the previous variation was already skeletal, so I can just give it skin and swim trunks.

I realize some players just want to play the game and see the story, while others may actually want to use those revival items, so here's a little compromise for you all.

Also, yes, I NEED to put on that "Pro" flag everywhere.

No, this is not the final boss. This is the boss of the last mainline level. There's a difference.

Also, I'm so glad I can pull off stuff like this. There'll be two more forms, though.

If there's one thing I learned from looking at the graphics of NES Batman, it's that they put gray highlights with red shading to make metal look a little rusty.

I'll know if I did my job right when I get to actually making the level.

Also not the final boss. Again, I may have gone a bit too far in a few places.

Now that the rigs for this boss are done, I'd better get around to animating them.

Part of the expansion involves a cute little fight right here. ...in space for no apparent reason.

...too bad it won't be as epic as the final boss, but still...

I felt some mechanics were underutilized, so I'm making an expansion.

...more or less just a side quest and extra dungeon. No more than that here.

Coming who-knows-when.
