The "EZ MODO" update

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

A little bird screeched in my ear that some players quit the game after reaching the final boss because it's too hard.

What?!

I designed that boss to be challenging because that's the game's climax. I wanted beating it to feel rewarding, but never intended it to be like bosses in Dark Souls. I think it's a shame that players would play until the final boss but then quit without getting to see the end.

That's why I'd like to introduce a solution.

Welcome to the EZ MODO update

(Credit to Yelly for the art)

The final boss is initially unchanged. If you lose to it too many times, I will personally come to your house and bonk the boss on the head, which will reduce the number of hits it takes to beat it.

It's not lame because I'm the one choosing ez modo for you, so don't worry about mean girls making fun of you.

Also, this only affects the final boss. You still gotta prove your worth if you want to beat Laifu's HATE route.

That's it. I'm going to see a hitman about this demonic bird that's been destroying my eardrum.
