Arrow Keys to Move X to Shoot Mother has caught you past your bedtime, and thinks it's time to go to sleep! Beat her before it's too late! [Spoiler] Mother is a part of my concept of timed boss battles. you'll have to defeat the boss before the timer runs out or you'll die instantly! Mother is a simple boss with 2 phases, the second stronger than the first. what makes her difficult is the utilization of slowing you and blocking your bullets, preventing you from getting hits on her. Here are some tips to help you defeat her: 1. Remove all her tendrils at the start of the boss battle before the timer starts so that you'll be able to deal as much damage as possible. If you were unable to do so in time, you might as well restart. 2. Only some of her silk cocoons that she throws are hazardous, don't be afraid to fly through the safe ones! 3. Try not to get too many hits on her twisters, they grow larger the more bullets they block. 4. move away from any silk or twisters (very light orange color), as they slow you down. With that out of the way, enjoy the boss fight!
