The Kraken's Lair, Another Boss Dungeon By Sturky

#1

Greetings, People! I am Sturky, and Happy Thanksgiving to you all, and on the menu we got Calamari, enjoy the feast!

( Wow that was like the shortest introduction message i’ve ever done. )

But uh, anyway, It’s the Kraken’s Lair! Another classic dungeon from the Kabam Forums, it was only a couple of days after the Hidden Laboratory that I released this on those forums, but clearly those days have changed to months over here, sorry bout that.

There’s a lack of in-battle examples in this idea as well, but it’s the same story as the Crystal Caverns, I have awful time management, I’ll get those done in due time, but it’s Thanksgiving, so it may take a bit, and hopefully it doesn’t take 3 months this time am I right?

Good idea!

I really had a blast reviewing this! It’s a great concept with nice art and good attack patterns.

There’s nothing I really dislike about the fight. It’s well thought-out and has a ton of variety.

The only sprites that can use some work are the Kraken and Tentacles, but I understand why you didn’t change them.

9/10. It’s an overall great boss dungeon!

Well good news, Piggby INSISTS on revamping them himself, so it’s actually getting an improvement after all.

That moment when @Piggby’s Kraken Resprite has more likes than the original post.

You didn’t specify what kind of weapon it is, it says cleaver, so I assume ninja as they have had a cleaver before, but it could also be a sword, be more specifical.

#16

Wow, this is an amazing idea!

Just one concept I think would be pretty cool would be if certain attacks would actually, instead of damaging you, would refill your oxygen up to 100%, meaning you could use those to stay full on air.

#17

I really love it! Creative and refreshing. Give me dagger plis :stuck_out_tongue:

#18

i like the idea. the sprites are awesome.

#19

Everything is so cute, I love calamari too, you should also make it drop calamari pet food, the sprites are good and the main boss is so cute, I have a question too, how do you get custom sprites in pfiffel? Or is it photoshop. Great idea.

#20

You edit it in.

#21

Ok ty pig :slight_smile:

#22

This is a really small complaint, but maybe split up the intro paragraph into multiple sentences.

#23

My one complaint is that the kraken looks rather cute than fierce. :rofl:

#24

I love it, however it seems like it would fit more into a OT bonus boss rather than an Oryx’s Castle court boss, does anyone else agree?

#25

He did specify, he said that it was a sword

#26

He edited the post after I had said that.
