Thank you so much! I definitely drew some inspiration from some of the older arcade games! Six bosses is a pretty good score too! I'll have to look into being insta-killed by splitter. A few other people have had the same issue.
The best way I can describe it is that the thing spawned in, the screen went POWPOWPOWPOWPOWPOWPOWPOW and I blew up lol. I wondered maybe if it spawned on top of me or something.
