Upgrading the statue of cubos will unlock more upgrade per boss.
+
Upgrading the Statue of Cubos in the [[Construction Firm]] will unlock more upgrades per boss, and each upgrade on tiers 2+ needs the upgrade bought on the lower tier to buy it. (Note: Upgrades will be replaced with boss modules with the upcoming reworks.)
  
 
Bosses are unlocked by upgrading [[Military Tier|military tiers]].

Boss fights are unique, as every different boss is essentially a different game, with each boss playing differently than the core game.
+
Boss fights are unique fights that each play very differently than the core game loop. Each one is based on a different game genre and contains different game mechanics.
  
The boss menu select screen is to the left, where upon clicking the screen opens the boss selection menu.
+
The boss menu select screen is to the left, where upon clicking the screen opens the boss selection menu. On the bottom next to the fight button are arrows to increase the tier of boss you wish to fight. Click to go up by 1 tier, or shift-click to go up by 100 (or to your highest tier if lower than 100).
  
Every boss menu screen has upgrades to purchase, the control schemes, and an info section.
+
The first 4 bosses have a set of boss modules you can use in the fight to greatly increase your power, unlocked by acquiring all the linked modules listed next to them. These give certain abilities to the Tower that increase in power with their tier (upgraded using Statue resources) and combat experience (obtained by killing the respective boss with it equipped). Currently, Cylindro, Cubos Jr and Dodecai all have been reworked, but Pyramidas has yet to receive an official rework as of now. The final boss will not have boss modules, and will instead get a hardmode for those that want the challenge.
  
To buy higher tier upgrades, you should buy lower tier upgrades.
+
Higher tier bosses will gain new abilities at tiers 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, and 21 (following the Fibonacci sequence), as well as a slight increase to their base stats at each tier. This aims to keep the challenge of higher tier bosses fun, and avoid them feeling monotonous or like a slog to complete.
 +
 
 +
Defeating bosses will award you with exotic gems, combat experience and maybe even an artifact or two, and can even grant achievements under certain conditions.

====Fight Description====
Cylindro is a large cylinder who will try to attack you with headbutts and water-storms.
+
Cylindro is a large cylinder who will try to attack you with headbutts and water-storms, which can be dodged by moving to adjacent pillars. Headbutts deal a base of 25% damage while waterstorms deal a base of 50% damage on hit, so try not to get hit too much if you don’t have Idle Nanobots or Hardened Shell.  
  
You can dodge his attacks by hopping to adjacent pillars.
+
Cylindrio will spin 4 times before performing an attack, alternating between clockwise and counter-clockwise. '''Cylindrio spins significantly faster as his health gets low''', reducing the amount of downtime between his attacks and forcing the player to dodge more often.
  
To damage cylindro you need to fire missiles, this will cost energy.
+
To damage Cylindro you need to fire missiles at him, which will cost energy. (No energy = no missiles)
 +
You cannot fire missiles while moving between pillars unless you have Epic Gyroscope equipped. However, even without it you will still fire a single missile on jumping to a new platform if the fire button is held while moving due to you shooting during the single frame you are on the pillar.  
  
Energy orbs spawn randomly on pillars, use these to restore energy.
+
Green powerups will spawn periodically on random pillars and will restore energy when picked up.

====Boss Abilities====
If you hit cylindro before his first spin, he will do a headbutt.
+
*Tier 2: Cylindro's slam will turn the focused pillar red which will make the tower jump more slowly on and off of it.
 +
*Tier 3: Cylindro will sometimes spin rapidly before summoning damaging geysers on every pillar in the arena except for 2 of them. The 2 safe pillars will be highlighted in green and will always appear on opposite sides of the map to one another.
 +
*Tier 5: Sometimes after a slam, Cylindro will spin around the stage, damaging you if you touch him. He also makes all three slammed pillars red when headbutting them instead of just one.
 +
*Tier 8: Cylindro will occasionally spawn a geyser on a random pillar which will erupt after some time and damage the tower if they are on it.
 +
*Tier 13: Cylindro will gain an invincible shield that spins around him and blocks projectiles. He gains extra shields at tiers 20 and 30, at which point the 3 shields combined will cover the vase majority of his body.
 +
*Tier 21: Cylindro's wave cannon attacks become much more chaotic.  
  
If you hit cylindro before his second spin, he will do a water storm. (1 side)

====Modules====
 +
Cubos Jr.'s boss modules increase stats of the tower, modify tower movement, or modify bomb behaviour. You can only equip 3 (4 with Cyanotypes) at once.
 +
 
 +
*'''Scattering'''
 +
**''Linked Modules: Combustion, Fire Focus, Earth Focus''
 +
**Makes bombs explode on diagonal tiles (instead of just orthogonal), but decreases bomb damage. Bomb damage penalty decreases with combat experience and module tier.
 +
 
 +
*'''Perfect Rhythm'''
 +
**''Linked Modules: Super Tower''
 +
**Removes beat tolerance (you can input actions at any time) and allows queuing of up to 4 actions. Cannot be upgraded and is unaffected by combat experience.
 +
**Be warned that you '''cannot cancel queued actions in any way whatsoever''', which can oftentimes result in you walking headfirst into Cubos Jr or his attacks when queueing multiple actions consecutively.
 +
 
 +
*'''Nuclear Enhancement'''
 +
**''Linked Modules: Advanced Splash, Super Multishot, Solar Strike''
 +
**Increase bomb damage but allows bombs to damage the tower if in range of the explosion. Damage bonus increases based on combat experience and module tier.
 +
 
 +
*'''Healthy Bombs'''
 +
**''Linked Modules: Adaptive Regeneration, Phasing, Recharge''
 +
**Allows bomb explosions to heal the tower if hit by the explosion by a fraction of the damage dealt. Heal % amount increases based on combat experience and module tier.
 +
**If combined with Nuclear Enhancement, the self damage will be applied '''before''' the heal from Healthy Bombs, so you may end up killing yourself with your bombs even with a heal factor of above 100% if your bomb damage exceeds your maximum health.
 +
 
 +
*'''Soundproofing'''
 +
**''Linked Modules: Diamond Foundation, Generic Armor, Advanced Shield''
 +
**Increase tower maximum health and damage resistance based on combat experience and module tier.
 +
 
 +
*'''Micro Bombs'''
 +
**''Linked Modules: Mjölnir, Desperado, Emergency Crit''
 +
**Allows the tower to place multiple bombs at once at the cost of reducing bomb damage. Bomb damage penalty decreases based on combat experience and module tier.
 +
 
 +
*'''Focused Detonation'''
 +
**''Linked Modules: Gravitational Impact, Shockwave, Molten Core''
 +
**Increases bomb damage at the exact center of the explosion (the enemy must be ''on top of'' the bomb as it goes off). Bomb damage bonus increases based on combat experience and module tier.
 +
 
 +
====Fight Description====
 +
The fight with Cubos Jr. takes place in a large, 7x7 arena made of 49 squares. The game progresses each beat in time with the music, meaning Cubos Jr. and the tower can only move or perform an action on the beat. Cubos Jr. will move erratically, sometimes chasing the player and sometimes running around in the same area of the battlefield for a while.
 +
 
 +
The tower can attack Cubos Jr. by dropping bombs. The tower can only have 1 bomb on field at a time (unless Micro Bombs is equipped), and bombs explode in the 5 orthogonally adjacent tiles (increased to all 9 adjacent squares with Scattering) after 3 beats. Only 1 bomb can exist on each tile, and you can only drop 1 bomb per move.
 +
 
 +
Cubos Jr. has 2 initial attacks: an earth shockwave that hits all 9 adjacent tiles and a fire attack that hits all tiles in the 4 orthogonal directions (up, down, left & right). All of his attacks (including ones gained at higher tiers) have a delay of 4 beats before occurring, giving the player time to get out of the way.
 +
Cubos Jr. will occasionally ignite himself and leave a trail of fire that damages the tower if they walk into it. You '''will''' take damage from colliding with Cubos Jr., so ramming facefirst into the boss is highly unadvised and will usually end in the tower’s untimely death unless you are using Healthy Bombs and can outheal Cubos Jr.’s damage.
 +
 
 +
====Boss Abilities====
 +
*Tier 2: Cubos Jr. can now use a diagonal fire attack.
 +
*Tier 3: Cubos Jr. can fly directly above the middle of the board before creating a ring of fire around the outer edge of the board which will damage the tower if they enter it for a while until it dissipates.
 +
*Tier 5: Cubos Jr. gains a dash attack where he digs down and travels 4 squared in any direction (will not go out of bounds) before resurfacing, damaging the tower if Cubos Jr. travels through it. Attack will leave a fiery trail if Cubos Jr was ablaze during the attack.
 +
*Tier 8: Cubos Jr. will now combine his orthogonal and diagonal fire attacks and use both at the same time.
 +
*Tier 13: Creates a lava crack at the center of Cubos Jr.'s earth attacks. The crack can be cleared by attacking it with a bomb, but if the crack was not cleared after 30 turns it turns into a pile of lava, no longer removable, last until the end of the fight, and can damage the tower if the tower steps on it.
 +
*Tier 21: Cubos Jr. will rapidly jump, creating a row of fire that travels the span of the arena, alternating from right-left to left-right every column.

Your tower can be constructed of all modules that you have. There are 9 types of tower rankings you can get at the end of the fight, empty (equip 0 modules), aggressive (have more offensive (red) modules than any other type), defensive (have more defensive (blue) modules than any other type), useful (have more utility (yellow) modules than any other type), ultimate (have more ultimate (purple) modules than any other type), weird (have more special (gray) modules than any other type), balanced (have two types of modules with the same number of modules), nice (have 69 modules in your tower), and perfect (spoiler).
 +
Many buildings of the town get "super upgrades" that allow them to help the tower get far better and deal more damage. The factory producers rainbow producers based on how many producers you have, rainbow producers multiply the resources you get every second by an amount. The mine produces rainbow shards based on how deep you have dug, these shards multiply the rainbow producer income. The laboratory uses your experiment progress to multiply damage gained by damage modules. The museum uses your power stone tiers to create a higher tier rainbow tier which multiplies damage like the lab. The shipyard multiplies resources based on sea miles and shipments. The power plant produces sun power based on dyson nodes and other producers, sun power speeds up time except for the timer.
 +
After the timer ends or you start the final attack you will be taken to a scene where you must charge the attack. You spam keys on the keyboard for one minute to get as much power as possible.

Black resource.png

The Statue of Cubos is a building you use to fight bosses.

Building Tiers

Upgrading the Statue of Cubos in the Construction Firm will unlock more upgrades per boss, and each upgrade on tiers 2+ needs the upgrade bought on the lower tier to buy it. (Note: Upgrades will be replaced with boss modules with the upcoming reworks.)

Bosses are unlocked by upgrading military tiers.

Bosses

Boss fights are unique fights that each play very differently than the core game loop. Each one is based on a different game genre and contains different game mechanics.

The boss menu select screen is to the left, where upon clicking the screen opens the boss selection menu. On the bottom next to the fight button are arrows to increase the tier of boss you wish to fight. Click to go up by 1 tier, or shift-click to go up by 100 (or to your highest tier if lower than 100).

The first 4 bosses have a set of boss modules you can use in the fight to greatly increase your power, unlocked by acquiring all the linked modules listed next to them. These give certain abilities to the Tower that increase in power with their tier (upgraded using Statue resources) and combat experience (obtained by killing the respective boss with it equipped). Currently, Cylindro, Cubos Jr and Dodecai all have been reworked, but Pyramidas has yet to receive an official rework as of now. The final boss will not have boss modules, and will instead get a hardmode for those that want the challenge.

Higher tier bosses will gain new abilities at tiers 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, and 21 (following the Fibonacci sequence), as well as a slight increase to their base stats at each tier. This aims to keep the challenge of higher tier bosses fun, and avoid them feeling monotonous or like a slog to complete.

Defeating bosses will award you with exotic gems, combat experience and maybe even an artifact or two, and can even grant achievements under certain conditions.

A helpful tool for quickly calculating boss xp gain can be found here. calculator

Cylindro

Info

"With the power to control the wind and water, Cylindro unleashes his rage onto his enemies in forms of large waterstorms. Sometimes he just tires to crush them with his entire body."

For first defeat on each tier, you will be rewarded with 10*Tier exotic gems and 15 * (tier-1)2 + 6 combat experience (all defeats).

Controls

  • Movement: Left/Right or A/D
  • Fire Missiles: Up, W, Spacebar
  • Long Jump: Down or S; requires Acrobatic Plugin boss module

Modules

Cylindro's boss modules increase stats of the tower, like upgrades did before. You can only equip 3 (4 with Cyanotypes) at once.

  • Searing Projectiles
    • Linked Modules: Phoenix Bounce, Light Splash, Earth Taste.
    • Increases the damage of the tower’s projectiles based on combat experience and module tier.
  • Hardened Shell
    • Linked Modules: Stab Protection, Reflect, Shelter
    • Reduces incoming damage based on combat experience and module tier.
  • Charged Powerups
    • Linked Modules: Moon Energy, Recharge, Energy Flow
    • Decreases powerup spawn cooldown and increases powerup energy refill amount based on combat experience and module tier.
  • Streamlined Hull
    • Linked Modules: Light Crit, Overcharge, Air Shell
    • Increases Tower movement speed based on combat experience and module tier.
  • Acrobatic Plugin
    • Linked Modules: Avalanche, Lightning, Redirect
    • Allows you to jump to the opposite side of the arena using the down arrow or S key in a certain amount of time; delay is reduced with combat experience and module tier.
  • Epic Gyroscope
    • Linked Modules: Hurricane, Super Tower, Tremors
    • Allows the tower to attack while moving, but with a higher energy cost and slower firerate. These penalties get weaker with combat experience and module tier.
  • Idle Nanobots
    • Linked Modules: Shelter, Boss Shield, Advanced Heal
    • Allows the tower to passively regenerate health when not moving for a certain amount of time; health regeneration rate and delay after moving based on combat experience and module tier.

Fight Description

Cylindro is a large cylinder who will try to attack you with headbutts and water-storms, which can be dodged by moving to adjacent pillars. Headbutts deal a base of 25% damage while waterstorms deal a base of 50% damage on hit, so try not to get hit too much if you don’t have Idle Nanobots or Hardened Shell.

Cylindrio will spin 4 times before performing an attack, alternating between clockwise and counter-clockwise. Cylindrio spins significantly faster as his health gets low, reducing the amount of downtime between his attacks and forcing the player to dodge more often.

To damage Cylindro you need to fire missiles at him, which will cost energy. (No energy = no missiles) You cannot fire missiles while moving between pillars unless you have Epic Gyroscope equipped. However, even without it you will still fire a single missile on jumping to a new platform if the fire button is held while moving due to you shooting during the single frame you are on the pillar.

Green powerups will spawn periodically on random pillars and will restore energy when picked up.

Boss Abilities

  • Tier 2: Cylindro's slam will turn the focused pillar red which will make the tower jump more slowly on and off of it.
  • Tier 3: Cylindro will sometimes spin rapidly before summoning damaging geysers on every pillar in the arena except for 2 of them. The 2 safe pillars will be highlighted in green and will always appear on opposite sides of the map to one another.
  • Tier 5: Sometimes after a slam, Cylindro will spin around the stage, damaging you if you touch him. He also makes all three slammed pillars red when headbutting them instead of just one.
  • Tier 8: Cylindro will occasionally spawn a geyser on a random pillar which will erupt after some time and damage the tower if they are on it.
  • Tier 13: Cylindro will gain an invincible shield that spins around him and blocks projectiles. He gains extra shields at tiers 20 and 30, at which point the 3 shields combined will cover the vase majority of his body.
  • Tier 21: Cylindro's wave cannon attacks become much more chaotic.

Cubos Jr.

Info

"With his father now long gone, Cubos Jr tries to step into his legacy by perfecting his fire and earth manipulation skills. Be careful! even though he is small, he might catch you off-gua... ahem ... off-beat."

For first defeat on each tier, you will be rewarded with 50*Tier exotic gems, and 18 * (tier-1)2 + 9 combat experience.

Controls

  • Movement: Arrows or WASD
  • Drop bomb: Left mouse button, scroll wheel or space bar

Modules

Cubos Jr.'s boss modules increase stats of the tower, modify tower movement, or modify bomb behaviour. You can only equip 3 (4 with Cyanotypes) at once.

  • Scattering
    • Linked Modules: Combustion, Fire Focus, Earth Focus
    • Makes bombs explode on diagonal tiles (instead of just orthogonal), but decreases bomb damage. Bomb damage penalty decreases with combat experience and module tier.
  • Perfect Rhythm
    • Linked Modules: Super Tower
    • Removes beat tolerance (you can input actions at any time) and allows queuing of up to 4 actions. Cannot be upgraded and is unaffected by combat experience.
    • Be warned that you cannot cancel queued actions in any way whatsoever, which can oftentimes result in you walking headfirst into Cubos Jr or his attacks when queueing multiple actions consecutively.
  • Nuclear Enhancement
    • Linked Modules: Advanced Splash, Super Multishot, Solar Strike
    • Increase bomb damage but allows bombs to damage the tower if in range of the explosion. Damage bonus increases based on combat experience and module tier.
  • Healthy Bombs
    • Linked Modules: Adaptive Regeneration, Phasing, Recharge
    • Allows bomb explosions to heal the tower if hit by the explosion by a fraction of the damage dealt. Heal % amount increases based on combat experience and module tier.

Fight Description

The fight with Cubos Jr. takes place in a large, 7x7 arena made of 49 squares. The game progresses each beat in time with the music, meaning Cubos Jr. and the tower can only move or perform an action on the beat. Cubos Jr. will move erratically, sometimes chasing the player and sometimes running around in the same area of the battlefield for a while.

The tower can attack Cubos Jr. by dropping bombs. The tower can only have 1 bomb on field at a time (unless Micro Bombs is equipped), and bombs explode in the 5 orthogonally adjacent tiles (increased to all 9 adjacent squares with Scattering) after 3 beats. Only 1 bomb can exist on each tile, and you can only drop 1 bomb per move.

Cubos Jr. has 2 initial attacks: an earth shockwave that hits all 9 adjacent tiles and a fire attack that hits all tiles in the 4 orthogonal directions (up, down, left & right). All of his attacks (including ones gained at higher tiers) have a delay of 4 beats before occurring, giving the player time to get out of the way. Cubos Jr. will occasionally ignite himself and leave a trail of fire that damages the tower if they walk into it. You will take damage from colliding with Cubos Jr., so ramming facefirst into the boss is highly unadvised and will usually end in the tower’s untimely death unless you are using Healthy Bombs and can outheal Cubos Jr.’s damage.

Boss Abilities

  • Tier 2: Cubos Jr. can now use a diagonal fire attack.
  • Tier 3: Cubos Jr. can fly directly above the middle of the board before creating a ring of fire around the outer edge of the board which will damage the tower if they enter it for a while until it dissipates.
  • Tier 5: Cubos Jr. gains a dash attack where he digs down and travels 4 squared in any direction (will not go out of bounds) before resurfacing, damaging the tower if Cubos Jr. travels through it. Attack will leave a fiery trail if Cubos Jr was ablaze during the attack.
  • Tier 8: Cubos Jr. will now combine his orthogonal and diagonal fire attacks and use both at the same time.
  • Tier 13: Creates a lava crack at the center of Cubos Jr.'s earth attacks. The crack can be cleared by attacking it with a bomb, but if the crack was not cleared after 30 turns it turns into a pile of lava, no longer removable, last until the end of the fight, and can damage the tower if the tower steps on it.
  • Tier 21: Cubos Jr. will rapidly jump, creating a row of fire that travels the span of the arena, alternating from right-left to left-right every column.

Fight Overview

Your tower can be constructed of all modules that you have. There are 9 types of tower rankings you can get at the end of the fight, empty (equip 0 modules), aggressive (have more offensive (red) modules than any other type), defensive (have more defensive (blue) modules than any other type), useful (have more utility (yellow) modules than any other type), ultimate (have more ultimate (purple) modules than any other type), weird (have more special (gray) modules than any other type), balanced (have two types of modules with the same number of modules), nice (have 69 modules in your tower), and perfect (spoiler). Many buildings of the town get "super upgrades" that allow them to help the tower get far better and deal more damage. The factory producers rainbow producers based on how many producers you have, rainbow producers multiply the resources you get every second by an amount. The mine produces rainbow shards based on how deep you have dug, these shards multiply the rainbow producer income. The laboratory uses your experiment progress to multiply damage gained by damage modules. The museum uses your power stone tiers to create a higher tier rainbow tier which multiplies damage like the lab. The shipyard multiplies resources based on sea miles and shipments. The power plant produces sun power based on dyson nodes and other producers, sun power speeds up time except for the timer. After the timer ends or you start the final attack you will be taken to a scene where you must charge the attack. You spam keys on the keyboard for one minute to get as much power as possible.
