This boss has been curated from the bottom of my heart to serve as the main purpose of defeating this glorious videogame. Here are a collation of wonderful images, inspirations, and explanations for the one, the only, the Mangrove Tree.
This boss will be a mangrove tree that lives under the water at the end of the level. The tree has swallowed an unfortunate soul that didn’t know how to swim and did so anyway, creating its anger towards humanity due to having assimilated it.
Its health is represented by its leaves – the more you manage to damage it, the more leaves fall off. The way it deals damage is through its thorny hands, which it can slash at you with, or can throw its thorns at you when you are too far away. Another thing it can throw at you are the thorny fruit it stores deep in its leaves, which it leaves behind after the fight.
As it is a mangrove tree, it has roots beneath the water which have the ability to send waves to throw your raft off balance. This is achieved using old boots that the tree may or may not have stolen from travelers passing through the river.
