The end.

Except it isn't. There's a whole second journey ahead of us.

This level is all about bosses, no regular enemies, just an onslaught of boss fights one after the other... Now where have I seen a game with robots and plenty of bosses to fight in the final level again?

* Boss list:
North - 02:10
North is the first and an annoying piece of scrap. You can't damage North properly during the first 2 pips of health, if you try to Super him he will use a nigh unavoidable attack in retaliation.

After that he starts attacking like a regular boss. I try to stand on his left side since it has his least dangerous attacks: drill, missiles and shield - which North only uses if you're really sloppy with your Super. The right has a saw blade rain, suicide robot and laser beam which are much more annoying to deal with.

Denkou - 03:33
The second in the line and he's the most obnoxious one to fight unless you know how to Jet Dash Cancel and chain several combos into Supers (I did hit him with another combo without cancelling it by sheer accident, the window for it is *very* small).

On Hard difficulty the bombs Denkou drop are ridiculously big so you have to move carefully if you're chasing him.

Denkou's level is actually very small, but loops around and Denkou loves to move erratically all over the place throwing bombs like a kid playing with firecrackers. It's very easy to get confused and lose track of him.

The thing with Denkou is that his bombs will explode faster the less health he has, at 1 pip of health his bombs will explode near instantaneously making the fight with him very difficult.

Brontus - 04:45
The third boss is Brontus and he's as irritating to fight as Denkou. Brontus is only vulnerable after his laser blast attack or his rolling saw blade move and he's way more durable than he should be.

I try to do a specific combo on Brontus after he ends his rolling attack - Jump, 2 punches, Jet Dash Cancel, 3 Punches - it does good damage and fills up the Super gauge nicely, but it's a bit hard to do repeatedly.

Epsilon - 07:03
Epsilon is by far the robot I hate the most here. He's way too random and has those stupid sea urchin and orbital laser attacks that are either difficult to dodge or makes him invulnerable. And he has moon jump physics just to make things even funnier.

The thing with Epsilon is that going melee on him is a big no-no for me, it's best to use finger lasers and also keep some distance from him since he can also summon dolphins and a freaking whale to tackle you.

Pluto - 09:47
The final boss of the game (not really). Pluto has some really nasty attacks and very little windows to attack, so yeah, he's earned that title of World's Strongest Robot.

Pluto has a spinning move that draws you to him on this difficulty and that thing is as fast as it is powerful, he can also use a quick tackle without warning, spam missiles and use his spinning move after jumping. But what you're really looking for is his horn attacks, the ones he charges before unleashing them.

The purple ray is by far the best opportunity you have to unleash your best moves against Pluto, but beware that the ray WILL cross and hit Pluto's back eventually. The orange, explosive, ray leaves some time to hit Pluto, but nowhere as much as the previous one, so watch out as Pluto will follow up with any of his other moves as soon as he is done with it.
