The first thing I wanted to ensure was that all of the abilities the player has learned would have a purpose when fighting the boss. My second goal was to identify the ability that would pose the greatest challenge to the player, and build the boss fight around that ability. 

I decided to make the head slam the biggest threat to the player, as well as the most rewarding when executed successfully. This segment will inform the player of the boss's weakest point, where the boss takes the most damage. To achieve this, I created three stages with health percentages of 100%, 75%, 50%, and 25%, respectively, where I introduced different abilities in each stage.

To start, I introduced the stab and head slam as an introduction, to demonstrate when the boss does the most damage and when it is weakest.

When the boss reaches 75%, I introduced another ability called the sweep. This mechanic requires the player to either teleport away from the sweep or take damage. At 50%, I introduced the acid spit, where the player needs to use their movement to avoid taking damage. Finally, at 25%, I introduced the reinforcement mechanic where enemies spawn and attack the player where the player will need to use the shield to avoid taking damage. This approach provides the player with all the knowledge they need to effectively combine all abilities against the boss's attacks.
