[OLD] Eye of Cthulhu (Boss Stage)

Report Errors Here
It seems that this mod is rather inconsistent with spawning the boss properly. It works perfectly fine on my end, both my version and the version I subscribed to for testing. I've had people say it works online, too, but that seems a little more inconsistent.

So what I'm going to do is a little "research".

If you're version of the boss isn't spawning, tell me here. Make sure to press Ctrl+8 to show error messages if the game is still running. Then once you've hit the error, post a screenshot here with the error log. Also state if the match was online or not.

I can't help with vague reports like "the boss didn't spawn" or "it crashed the game". If an error message pops up, screenshot that. If the game closes unexpectedly, tell me what happened before it crashed. This is meant for me to improve this mod and future mods like this one.

This is a stage, NOT a character Find it in your custom stages.

Thanks all, and I hope to make more bosses soon!

Its a small bug but in a 1v1 on this stage, when player one dies, The eye just goes up and down from were they died.

This may not be a bug, nor a crash, but: Its good that it has infinite superarmour, but he is strong against/immune to hitstun, meaning if ya can spam an attack WITH AT LEAST average hitstun, it will be stuck in one place. Yes, I know that some hard moves reward from pulling them off is hitstun, but make it only for the high amounts of hitstun, and not just average. This will, for some (balanced) characters, make the fight just as hard as the rest of them..... I hope you'll take this advice wisely, because I think other people that make stage bosses from this template, will probably encounter this exploit TOO. I know coding is hard, but if ya listen to this, take this as a advice, because infinitely freezing a boss with the intention to be hard, does not make the boss hard....
Bill Cipher's hench maniac is OP against this boss. EYE VS EYE

this isnt a big problem. just a little bug. i tried doing this using The Kid, I don't know if this happens for other characters. but when i lost. it says i won
it even counted the deaths!

I found another error...

Picking Sylvanos plain ol' crashes the game with no error message. A temporary fix for this is not picking Sylvanos or Random and picking another character like Zetterburn.

The boss doesn't seem to be able to hit me during the second phase. I've tried this with Speedrunner Link, Big Yoshi as well as Zetterburn, but it simply doesn't seem that it can hurt me at all, rendering it just a mere moving punching bag.

Update: It's just the regular dash that he does in the second phase that has no hitbox, the fast dashes from Expert Mode do still have a hitbox.

Update 2: It seems to be hitting me now during the second phase, but now all of the boss's (as well as the minions it spawns during the first phase) attacks only hit me to the left?

Clairen can't destroy the small eyes with the plasma field

All knockback sends to the left? This seems like a pretty huge bug, but every time you get hit, you get launched to the left, no matter what.

You may have already noticed that this boss needs to be updated to work on recent patches since that applied to all stage bosses but since no one mentioned it & it's one of the only ones that still aren't updated, I figured I should mention it in case you forgot.

Zetta is so powerful that the game can't handle her power

what a skill issue

I get this error too! Plus the stage doesn't get rid of the CPU player and turn their UI box into the difficulty display (the thing that says "Normal" on it).

I found out that either when you play with 4 players/CPU's or on a team game with any number of players, it doesn't crash. Just thought I'd throw that out there :)
