LuaSTG Multi Boss Rush v3.20 || All-Stage Boss Rush Clear (24 Deaths)
441Alright, let's do an All Stage Boss Rush run! From EoSD to DDC - let's face all of the bosses there! (And yeah, they didn't lie when they said is so long. Oh man.)
----------
"MedicBook's Multi Boss Rush", is a huge project made in LuaSTG engine, by 吃药图书 (MedicBook), with few people supporting the development. It consists of various Boss Rush-like stages, from EoSD up to DDC (as for version 3.20). They might differ in quality between each other, as well as length of each part of it. Which is understandable, since the game is in development for nearly 1,5 years now.
It is expected that last several boss rushes will be done in 2021. Just nobody knows when exactly :V

[ SMALL NOTES ]
Before we get started:
If you decide to play a game and see it isn't in English - worry not! In Settings you can change it (second-to-last menu choice, and second-to-last option it should be). Then feel free to start the game!
----------
[ GAMEPLAY ]
The game consists of many, many boss rushes, from EoSD up to DDC as for v3.20. For each of these there will be introduced special mechanics (EoSD doesn't have one for obvious reasons), which stack up as the game progresses. Each of boss rushes can be played individually once you beat given stage in All-Stage Boss Rush mode (a.k.a. the default one).
Throughout the game the progress is saved, so you can come back to it anytime. Along with that, replays also are saved, so once you beat the whole rush, you will have all replays intact. Yet beware, as the game will remember number of comebacks/restarts made throughout the gameplay.
(As seen on my video, I made only one restart, that's due to game crash. No idea what causes it, but seems to happen at nearly the same moment in game. Huh.)
Apart from it, we can play a special stage - that is Bad Apple!!, which you have seen two weeks ago.
There's also Aya as a playable, so if you wanted to beat stages with camera in StB style - don't hesitate more!

[ GAME MECHANICS ]
The game mimics all of the special mechanisms from original games. In PCB you had borders, right? Now you can have them too! UFO tokens? No problem! You can even use PoFV mechanisms here! And lot more stuff coming!
Of course they are remade, so they could fit in the style of the gameplay. MoF Faith mechanism is totally overhauled, so instead of granting more PiV, you gain random good effects once bar is filled, like Supernatural Border activation, clearing all bullets on screen, or invisibility for 5 seconds.
Since there's a lot of these, I won't explain them here, since it would be too much. For curious, I recommend playing it on one's own and/or reaching in-game manual.
What is important, is that they are mixing in, as you beat more and more stages they will stack up and sometimes affect each other. Once we reach WBaWC stage we might have a lot of these active. Oh man, that's gonna be crazy.
----------
[ FINAL THOUGHTS ]
All in all, the game looks super dope. And while not all stages are great, awesome etc. in terms of executing them, most of them really are, and the whole game deserves more love.
So, what are you waiting for? Just try it already! If you are Lunatic player - this game is definitely for you!
