Just One Boss

The title screen for "Just One Boss".

February 2018

A single challenging boss fight against a magic mirror. You move about a grid dodging the boss's attacks while collecting glowing tiles to progress towards victory. As the fight continues the boss begins weaving in more challenging attacks and mechanics.

A magic mirror throws cards and shoots lasers at a little blue character.

"Just One Boss" has been played millions of times across dozens of sites and even has its own speedrunning community.

A magic mirror pounds its fist and splits into five multicolored reflections.

I developed the game over three months, during which I learned music theory to compose the game's chiptune tracks.
