BOSSGAME: The Final Boss is My Heart

This game is delightful. Just finished it and I feel nowhere close to actually getting the hang of the mechanics

The writing was wonderful as well. It actually gave me some inspiration to continue my own sapphic love story I'm working on (slowly, and in Twine :p).

Can't even begin to imagine how much work went into this. Thank you!!

Well, well, well. Just finished BOSSGAME and I have to say it's been a little while since I've picked up a game this satisfying to play. A perfect mix of rhythm and action. Every fight was fast paced and fun (even while i was struggling) (sometimes I have to admit defeat and go to bed for the night lol) (i lost a shameful amount to mirra one day very late at night... like 4x the most I lost to any other boss), and it even made me cry a bit. :')

Even though the core mechanics were enough to carry the whole game, I loved it when things got switched up for a bit, and the final fight especially was extremely satisfying.

Good job! I had a blast! 10/10 will play again. :)

P.S.: I did run into a little glitch, I'm pretty sure, in the fight against Apotheosister? Where... because I not actually good at rhythm games, I panicked... and i frequently had both shield buttons held down, and when the boss disarms Sophie, the option to switch sides uh... broke. The opposite arrow disappeared and she was stuck in place. And then I just had to die. lol
It was a glitch reproduced twice, but then I beat the fight the time I tried to actually record it... >__>;
I played on PC using a controller, but this maybe be a problem that's just unique to my playstyle. (panic)

P.P.S.: Plot-wise, I think this game is a bit unique in that... I feel often in stories, characters who are broken up (friends, lovers, or otherwise) find themselves getting back together due to circumstance and then remember why they liked each other, but it's refreshing to see them still thinking about each other and actually talk it out. Anna and Sophie's reunion was pretty cathartic in that respect (that was the bit that made me cry), and it really felt like everything ended pretty well. :)

I didn't actually know what sorta gameplay was gonna be in store when I opened this thing up, but gosh I love it so much actually. I'm not TOO TOO good at controlling each character individually, simultaneously, but when I'm able to do it, it feels very satisfying... Even just playing the game without doing that is fun as hell though. THESE BOSS FIGHTS ARE FUN AS HELL.

But in terms of the characters/story, humongous fans of Ultimouth, Dawn, and Mirra, though of course Anna is amazing and I love her so much too. Also love the gay. The gay is excellent. AND I LOVE THE STORY..... Without talking about spoilers, just, y'know. It's a solid, enjoyable plot (only just started Act 3, tho) with extremely endearing characters...... What more could you want........ Also it's really gay, which we should all ask for, and I'm glad we've got it. (The lil unlocks from doing bosses a certain way is really neat as well!!! Didn't have too too much trouble fulfilling them all until the first boss of Act 3, but... THEY'RE FUN CHALLENGES!!! And the unlocks are fun, too!!!!)

BUT YA!!! Finish soon. For now, though, very delightful, challenging, and fun game aaaAAAAAAA Thank you for making this!!!!!

Really good! Played on iOS, it was great for pick up and play sessions (“just one more boss…”) that often had me playing for longer than I intended. Really fun combat once you get the hang of it, with extra performance incentives for replays. Lots of love in this game and it shows!

Thanks for the excellent game! I was part of the booth next to you at Youmacon so I was happy to see your game featured on Itch! Good job!

I just finished this game :) I was really invested in it both for the story and the fights :D Thanks a lot for making it <3

If you (or anyone reading) have recommendations for other great android games, I'll happily take them :)

Love this game. Terrific story and humour. Also has lots of mileage for speedrunning. Favourite character's got to be Omeghost. Can't wait to see what comes next 😍

I 300% ADORE this game. Probably my favorite queer writing style since VA11 Hall-a, and everything comes together so nicely, great music, simple yet complex gameplay, gahhh this is so good I stg

can we get a community discord going? I'd love to discuss this game and similar ones/other games from this dev with likeminded people

I finished this game on stream yesterday, and I absolutely adored it. 💖 The writing hit really close to home sometimes, but in a way that I appreciated and that made me feel seen and understood.

Also, the finale shows that this is the kind of game that a corporation simply could not make, and I adore it all the more for that. :3

Juste finish the game and i am glad i give it a try . Great gameplay ,a touching story. Seriously one of the best mobile game i never play.  Thanks for this game :) 

bought it today and im so in love!

however i just wanted to point out a possible issue.

it looks like the game screen is slightly larger than the actual screen on my phone, make it a bit difficult to press the button on the right hand side.

have you received other reports? or am i the only one so far?

Okay this is my favorite game of this year, and probably the two years on either side of this one

I really like this game.

Reminds me undertale.

If the final boss isn't actually My Heart, I'm not playing.

Me after reading the description "Shut up and take my money"

I don't know what's funnier the implication that hunting demons are the only/primary way of making ends meet or that they continue living a place called "Mammon City" 

fantastic play, left a review on the playstore!! it's just fun and engaging and the music is right up my alley.

thanks a bunch for options that make the game easier!

This game has been amazing so far. Feels like light-hearted anime meets Elden Ring. Highly recommend!

Love the game, more people need to hear about this! I'm completely stuck on a certain boss fight where a death timer is introduced in the final phase. It seems to just be mathematically impossible to win... anyone else gotten this far?

I heard you on TTWAV, I’m hyped for this game!

Very excited!

YESSS!!!! So excited for this game! <3
