No - he only roars when you tow a rock next to him, and sometimes glitches out of his den under certain circumstances (although I think the bug has been fixed in 1.1.1 (+.1 over the Mac version)  :)

I got really lucky, unless that is a bug o.o!

Yeah - that glitch happens fairly rarely - lucky!  :) However, you missed an excellent chance to use the shield's reflecting ability to bounce the energy orbs back.

Next time insert a quote from Chimerathing's post - your post is a little out of context. Also doesn't the format below look better?   ;)

o.o Sorry about that. Yes it does look a lot better.

Never knew you could bounce them back.

No problem (and therefore no need to be sorry) - all part of the initiation process  ;D. You'll find the shield remarkably useful - it can reflect every projectile in the game (but you have to refresh it pretty frequently against boss shots). Hope you enjoy the rest of the game!  :)

That's the shield that only works in her natural form, and it's not good to stay in that for too long :) Oh and be careful jumping out of the water in there or you have to start it all over again lol

Yeah - that glitch can either make your day (nexy's glitch) or ruin it (the Sun Worm magically disappearing or flying out of the chamber)

I think that the exit was deliberate Chibi though I could be wrong? I haven't had him vanish on my yet though, that could be really frustraiting :o

in a certain costume I found that I was staying in her natural form *most* of the time after awhile. and no, it wasn't the princess costume, although you know I'm very fond of it  :-*

I had that happen to me once - I was blindly shooting at the worm when my shots stopped homing in - I looked down to check and there was nothing there! I had lost about ten minutes of spamming.  >:(  :)

I believe I had that happen to me in the original version. Hasn't been duplicated since.

Beat it earlier today with just spamming in energy form and using tough cakes to heal (also gives you a defence boost so consequently lost less energy being hit afterwards.

Would probably have swapped forms more, but I only just found the keyboard shortcuts. :P

I'm afraid that you're stuck until you improve your aiming (and maybe dodging) skills. My only recommendation would be to eat the two pulsing pink jellyfish in the tunnels above the Boiler Room - they give you an invaluable head start in the boss fight. Good luck, and remember to use a +1 or 2 energy roll when the Golem is vulnerable.  :)
