WIP Boss Battle: Portal Bomber
This is going to be my first real boss battle that I have ever planned to release. I usually have not considered people playtesting maps, but since this is a boss and not a puzzle room, I decided it would be a good idea to see what people thought about this boss. It will be released for testing in a few days due to a few "issues" I have been having with the map, but not unsolvable.
Here is some basic info about the boss:
Name: Portal Bomber
Appearance: Personality Core attached to a Ball Launcher.
Abilities: 1)Can spawn his own pair of portals depending where the player stands. 2)Creates bombs to fling at player through Portals. 3) Hide inside Ball Launcher for protection (Still working on).
Difficulty: Well, harder that Wheatley.
How to kill: Return the bombs he sends before they explode on you (Still working on).

It's a good idea.
Getting the gameplay elements perfect is going to be tough. It could easily end up frustrating the player because random portals appearing behind the player could kill the player instantly without warning.

The boss portals appearing isn't exactly random, more like if you stand in a certain spot, the portal will appear flinging a bomb at that spot. I tested with the bombs and found out that it takes 3 direct hits to kill the player, however there is also the splash damage to worry about. Perhaps I'll adjust the bomb spawn rate to lessen the frustration for the player.

Yeah, I played all the Bomberman games, thank goodness the name wasn't taken.
