This was an incredible experience, a great little game. I think that if you will expand the formula and add some different bosses this could become a really solid game, to be released everywhere! Good Luck!
lol, is that after 99:99 worth of time and a lot of retries?
I don't mean in an actual offense, I just think that these factors are the cause of it overloading, since these are the only things that change, everything else is more of a loop.
This is pretty hard for one boss. I played this game several times and I only beat it once, but I like the game then I played it again, and I did way better, about 8 min and a few deaths, but I definitely did better, I think I'm done with the game for no- oh no, H A R D M O D E. Jokes aside, I like the game, one of the first few PICO games I played. 10/10
edit: hard mode just proved how slow my reaction time is lol. There is ANOTHER PHASE?
edit2: 1 mirror, Nah. 2 mirrors, nope! 6 mirrors: p e r f e c t. and also I keep thinking that the green "bloop" will move further even if the coin blocks the normal one. man, i beat the hard mode, im doing i again, and i SILL suck a This game
edit3: new record: sub 4:10 and 0 deaths in normal mode.
honestly this is really fun but a lot of the times i get screwed over by every attack when i get split into 2 people, because either i can't reach the nearest safe spot for both in time during the rose attack, or it's blocked by a coin and i can't get to the safe zone. and sometimes i get trapped and die to the laser, because i bump my mirrored side, or i die to the cards because the middle is blocked and i can't manage to dodge 2 cards simultaneously. i otherwise this is pretty fun, but the mirrored stage is incredibly hard to control for me. i would say 8/10
well half of the time when i do that they do the laser sweep and i cant avoid it cause the only safe spaces are the edges that are blocked by the coins. just my luck lol :/
Coolmath games and armor games are the two places that properly licensed Just One Boss on their sites. Can't say the same for the 50+ other webgaming sites though...
Thank you for looking out for this, I do appreciate it
For reasons that have little to do with mental health, I got really engrossed in beating this game in under 1:30. Anyway, feel free to check it out if you're interested:
I've got no plans to create a downloadable version, but if you were to download PICO-8 that'd allow you to play Just One Boss outside of a web browser (though that costs $14.99)
Love this game! Definitely takes longer than expected to beat. The soundtrack is so nice, too, and I love the little animations between attacks (graphics overall are lovely)! I also like that you included an additional mode, as well as new challenges within that mode! :)
Looks like other people already knew about it :( I thought I was being clever. Oh well, still submitted to the leaderboard and pending moderation. Thanks for the game, super fun!

Ah I used to play this all the time in school in 2019, dang the memories.
I did it :D
I'm proud of you ;)
it was fun until you made 2 guys for me to control
i cant win phase 4
Yes you can I believe in you!
how to i get to the forth phase, there is pitture of a forth phase
If you beat normal mode you'll be able to access hard mode from the main menu by pressing the LEFT arrow key
oh thank you
your right, hard means hard, I NEVER NEEDED TWO OF MY AND 6 OF HIM
Why two?! we never needed two! Love it
I absolutely love this game, its difficult, but fun! And the music slaps, I even made fanart of it :)
You cannot tell us about your beautiful fanart and not post a link!
Here you go :) - https://www.instagram.com/p/CPENiTwJixw/?utm_medium=copy_link btw, does the character you play as have a name?
Augh I love it T_T thank you kindly! I just call em Bloop
Heh, thats a cute name :)
hey how do i get to the 5 phase, or at least i think its the fourth
very difficult. Especially when you are fighting more than one at once.
This was an incredible experience, a great little game. I think that if you will expand the formula and add some different bosses this could become a really solid game, to be released everywhere! Good Luck!
i rated 5 star :)
Great game. Boss fights are one thing games need help on, so a game with just one boss, has a good boss fight.
Sequal soon? This game is the best?
I know right??
this game is SO hard I give it 10/10
I thout this agme was gone forever phe
@briggs cool game :D
fun game, sadly i died when green bloop was introduced
That part is really hard, isnt it?
yeah
wow nice game
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
Q dificil!!!
I WANT TO DIE
There there
ok how do you pass the 4th phase where the mirrors throw their hat, i always take damage there
edit, nvm i figured it out
how long is it????
i died when i had a green double...
also this reminds me of sans battle in undertale! great job!!
could you make a downloadable version????
I don't have plans to make a downloadable version, but you can always purchase PICO-8 and play it on that
ok! thanks
what was this game made in?
PICO-8 https://www.lexaloffle.com/pico-8.php
i... broke the game :c sorry
https://ibb.co/hHkFPrW
Please be more careful next time ty
It's not a toy
lol, is that after 99:99 worth of time and a lot of retries?

i just died at the same time the boss was on a transition. ;( sorry
that pretty cool

edit3: new record: sub 4:10 and 0 deaths in normal mode.
edi4: a new record! 6:55 and 91+ deaths
how'd you unlock hard mode?
You just beat normal mode first, then hard mode opens up
oh ok
honestly this is really fun but a lot of the times i get screwed over by every attack when i get split into 2 people, because either i can't reach the nearest safe spot for both in time during the rose attack, or it's blocked by a coin and i can't get to the safe zone. and sometimes i get trapped and die to the laser, because i bump my mirrored side, or i die to the cards because the middle is blocked and i can't manage to dodge 2 cards simultaneously. i otherwise this is pretty fun, but the mirrored stage is incredibly hard to control for me. i would say 8/10
oh the trick for this is to be in the corner for the coin part so they aren't in the way.
well half of the time when i do that they do the laser sweep and i cant avoid it cause the only safe spaces are the edges that are blocked by the coins. just my luck lol :/
oof
I cant get pass the stage where you control two guys, but great game awesome design great boss chose a mirror magician. :)
that one was hard but i beat it
wait, the mirror did the mirror duplication glitch, where you move your reflection to the real world.
this music jams!
very much so, and i love the way the different attacks blend into the music
Good evening my friends! If you want to see Hard Mode beaten in 1:15, check out the video below.
I just have to share it with somebody. And clearly the people I love must never discover my shameful hobby.
i can tell thats a cheated version....
no? looks more glitched to me
its obviously cheated, theres more than one attack point spawning at a time
It's a common speedrunning glitch that can be performed without tampering with the game: https://www.speedrun.com/just_one_boss/guides
definitely seems glitched.
love the game, BUT, I cant get past where you control 2 guys, is hard.
Tell me about it :/
Is it just me, or do the controls invert randomly at this part?
they don't invert randomly, the green guy just moves in the opposite direction
Awsome game!
i played this game on crazy games so i think they stole your game
Yup they did, and sadly true of many, many other sites. But I appreciate you letting me know <3
great game tho keep up the work
very sad
did you know this is on coolmathgames?

Thank you, and no problem :)

I never thought I'd see sub 1m30s. Quadruple damage glitch ~with~ the skip bunnies glitch no less. Congratulations friend, you really REALLY did it!
can't wait to lose countless hours trying to complate this :D
I BEAT IT! only took a few tries
oh no, hard mode
I believe in you
thank you but AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
You're right what was I thinking AAAAAAHHH
Any chance you could provide a downloadable version of this ?
I've got no plans to create a downloadable version, but if you were to download PICO-8 that'd allow you to play Just One Boss outside of a web browser (though that costs $14.99)

I like it, but the third phase is a little b.s.
Agree
Okay, I got sub-3:30. I am satisfied now.
This you? https://www.speedrun.com/just_one_boss/run/zplw07xm
Oh no, I didn't realize there was an official leaderboard xD Sadly I didn't record it for upload
I just accidentally discovered a glitch that makes it possible to beat the game way faster. I'll see if I can do it and upload.
Looks like other people already knew about it :( I thought I was being clever. Oh well, still submitted to the leaderboard and pending moderation. Thanks for the game, super fun!
Can i use this in my video?
