Title: new Shantae game boss demo
Post by: mysteryserpent on 2019-09-05 21:57:17
Wanted to make a quick little topic about this. A 20 minute demo got released a few days ago on youtube, and someone made this video to show just the few minutes of the boss battle.

Something I really like about this boss is the animations the boss herself has. Plus she's a plant and attacks with plant minions that explode into leaves and possibly pollen. That's awesome :D She may be dangerous, but she's really cute when she attacks in various ways and when she lets her guard down the first time.

Shantae's sprite dances during the loading time at the beginning, and the sprite is pretty much the same as before. Her artwork with dialogue scenes has a more detailed look in a similar way that Pirate Curse had. Shantae is still really pretty to me.

Oh look, it's Giga Mermaid 2.0! XD

I'm glad they went back to a Metroidvania style for this game.
While Half-Genie Hero was a good game it didn't really felt like a Shantae game.
A shame because it was supposed to be the pinnacle of the series but instead it gets shadowed by Pirate's Curse.

Hopefully this is going to be as good if not even better than Pirate's Curse! :D
