...Doozer, phase 2 - After he transforms into Rick from Splatterhouse 3, he'll fire projectiles in this pattern: high, low, high, high, low, low, high. Strike him several times, then retreat to the right side, and duck/jump as appropriate. Immediately following the final high projectile, he'll cause an explosion under you, so jump out of the way, towards him. Do this again to close the distance, then deliver a few slashes, before dodging the third explosion. Now he'll fire two low projectiles; jump over each, and hit him three more times. At this point, he'll prepare to charge across the screen, which does a lot of damage, so get ready on the right. When the boss turns white, jump a quarter-second later to avoid it, then slash him. The same pattern just repeats from here, so he's very predictable and fairly simple to beat once you practice enough. After charging back to the left, he won't charge again after the two low shots, and will instead do the long series from the beginning again; be ready for that. 11) Mobile Weapons Platform, I guess? - Your biggest enemy here will be nerves. It does the same two attacks over and over, so this is a test of your patience, consistency, and composure. Jump when the laser targeting beam disappears; make sure it's a full jump, by holding X. When the laser cannon rises, walk forward, crouch, and mash attacks to the left, which will destroy the incoming missiles. During all of this, you want to be jump-slashing the weak spot, although it's annoyingly invincible half the time. Don't get too close to it, as it will damage you when it glows. I found it best to time my jump by watching the grey area of the robot in my peripheral vision, since that makes it easier to see exactly when the orange line disappears. As you can see, I was one hit away from failure! That's it-enjoy your gold trophy, and probably the platinum. I recommend doing this mode last, so you have plenty of experience with the bosses. It's also a good idea to practice the final two in mission mode first, until you're very familiar. I made plenty of dumb mistakes in this video, so there's definitely a good margin for error. Hope this is helpful to someone!
