Stuck at Final Boss

[SilverTwilight]

It may just be a glitch, in which case I'll have to start the whole mess over, but I am at the point where (in final form) he starts shooting the giant green laser.  I used the surrounding enemies to charge up Dual Form, but now that I want to take another shot...there's nothing to reload with.  No other enemies.  I think they were all killed in the blast.

Now what?

...there's nothing to reload with.  No other enemies.  I think they were all killed in the blast. [They were all killed in the blast, but they should respawn]

Now what?

I think you need to shoot the source  of the laser (the head inside the Creator's stomach) - that will spawn another set of enemies, allowing you to scream. SPOILER: _{The only way you can hurt the boss is to scream with Naija's Dual Form three times.}

If that doesn't work, then it must be a glitch - try the boss again, and if it happens again, try to remember if you changed anything with the Aquaria files lately. Good luck!

Thank you, that really worked!  I wasn't letting myself get too close to the laser to fire at the head.

And because I wasn't getting close, the halo around the beam looked green to me.

And...wow, that ending

[Chibi]

Glad to hear it - BTW, did you retrieve all three secret memories? By your description of the ending, I think you did.  The secret ending really comes out of the blue.

Normal Dual Form shot also hurts the final boss, I believe. That or it takes just 2 screams to defeat him, which seems like a rather odd number..

[Alphasoldier]

It takes 3 Naija Dual Form hits, and Li Dual form must hurt the head in the stomach to gain 3 enemies, which he can attack and then be charged.

3 Screams, not 2, I know that for sure.

[Chibi]

Normal Dual form appears to hurt the boss, but you could do that forever and just increase the amount of enemies you have to defeat.  Both attacks make the boss flash red, but Naija's screams cause his entire torso to flush.

Ah.
