I enjoyed this! The mechanics were really solid, and I just loved the animation when the boss rises out of the ground, so cool! I wasn't able to kill the boss, but I got pretty close and had a good time anyway. One challenge I had was sometimes when you're getting rushed, an enemy would drop a pickup, but more enemies would rush in front and block you from collecting it. It makes sense of course, but there were a couple that really could have saved my bacon there at the end! Great job!
