About Boss Games
Boss games build toward one big opponent. The regular levels teach you the moves, and every so often the game puts all of them to the test against something larger, tougher and louder than anything before it. Beating it is the checkpoint that tells you the last stretch was learned, not survived by luck.
A good boss fight is readable. It shows what it is about to do a moment before it does it, and it has a pattern you can study: a charge, a sweep, a pause where it is open. The first attempt is usually a loss, the second is a lesson, and the win comes when the pattern clicks.
The boss games here run in the browser with nothing to install, and a lost fight costs you a quick restart rather than a long walk back. Progress through the levels is saved on your device, so you can leave a hard boss for later and come back to it fresh.
