B1, Harbinger of the Everclock

[Extra Projectile 2]

[Lightning Strike 3]

[Speed Increase 1]

Since I was about to face a boss, the lightning wouldn't help me. The boss will likely be alone, and speed won't help me.

After selecting the first option, I fired two bursts of three purple bolts that were roughly the size of a wrist. Even though it wasn't going to get any better, I was still concerned about the next room.

It was customary for bosses to have special abilities and be much more powerful than regular enemies. I had no idea what I was going to face when I entered the room, as with every room I entered for the first time.

Taking a deep breath, I jogged forward; I had finally gotten past the speed walk!

When I crossed the portal, what I found on the other side was nothing like what I had seen before. The monster was a massive slime with strange blocks appearing and disappearing.
