    How about a sentient planet, where you have to spelunk and destroy its vital organs, while everything on the planet is out to get you.

    So this is the Spaceshifter.
    he doesnt need any weapons to fight his abilitie to manipulate space is more then overwelming for most enemys.
    he has the advantage of suprise ataks and can avoid most ataks trown on him.
    Killing a spaceshifer is considered by many to be the gratest chalange ..
    Not much is known about them but there are just a couple spaceshifters left so encountering one is a one in a miljon.

    So this is one of boss/mini-boss i was thinking about now.
    I tryed to give a spin on the technique that you will use to fight him.

    okey guys what do you think?

    Srry for my english as allways.

    Cyber bots (this name can be changed i just gave them one.

    Well a bit about how they work.
    If you encounter them they will be in a big group like 20+ of them
    they can bond together to make biger weapons that deal more damage , but they still have seperate Hitpoints so if to many die of a combination they
    breake apart and create somthing smaller like you can see at the example and if the count gets to low they fight seprate and shoot lasers at the player.

    they can form 3 smaler weapons or a big one and the rest just flying around it.

    as for the story they can be the first prototypes of the glich or a former defencife machine.

    Thank again.

    The Infected

    Okey so imagine yourself encountering a village at first glance all look normal but after a wile you see that the vilagers are behaving kinda strange.
    What you dont know is that the village is no more under the control of the villagers , and when the night comes the villagers turn to there new form!

    Okey so a bit about this one actually is a hole village thats the boss.
    Infected need a hoste to survive the daylight as they can handle the light.
    they use othere creatures to move around ,feed and more in the daylight.
    But when the night comes then its like they go in to a killling frenzy.
    To eliminate the infaction you need to cleare all the infected.

    Oki there is one more :D

    (sorry for my english skills)

    We need something requires tactics.
    Kind of like a Zelda boss, where it's combination of combat and puzzle solving.
    But... really humongous. Like super huge. Think Shadow of the Colossus, but bigger.

    Like huge Fire Dragon-Golem-Cthulhu.
    Something like this:

    But you have to climb around him and find different weak-spots.

    Will each race have their own Final Boss?

    If so, then GLaDOS would be a great Glitch Final Boss :D

    Or She could be just a Super Intelegent AI that you now need to destroy, as she wants the whole Universe to herself, Ideas!

    I have a few suggestions, one boss should be one that you have to either climb up or grapple up onto to hit it's weak point. Another should be one that has blocks around it as armor forcing you to mine or blow up the blocks on it, it should also stand relatively still so you can actually mine away at it. Another should be one that moves blocks around, makes blocks and destroys them so you have to watch your environment, when it is defeated it should restore where the blocks were and you on top of any that are replaced from where you're standing. The last and probably least should be a GIANT ENEMY CRAB that you have to flip it over so you can hit it's weakpoint for MASSIVE DAMAGE.

    Someone that looks a lot like Red uses a bunch of mobs. The only way to defeat him is to use your own pets! Essentially a small Pokemon battle.

    Syze00 Title Not Found

    My Idea for a boss would be a lot of work for the player, but would be rather neat. It would be pieces of a giant robot buried in different areas. The player would first have to locate and excavate the different parts. An arm here, a leg there ect. Once the player locates all the parts he would put them together and the robot would come to life. You would realize it was a mistake to put it back together but now its your responsibility to decomission it once again. After you defeat it you could salvage some sort of tech/weapon from it. Bonus points if you make it so you have to do a little terraforming to the area before turning it back on.

    What do you think?

    I'd like to see a couple of references from other popular sci-fi franchises. I'd like a boss fight with both X and Zero look-alikes or a boss fight with both Master Chief and Samus Aran look-alikes at the same time. The "X and Zero" boss could be a team of guardian robots in some futuristic robotic dungeon and they'd wake up when you enter the best loot-worthy room. One would attack with a beam-saber/close range attacks and the other with a megabuster/distant elemental attacks. So this boss fight would require you to deal with two different kinds of attack patterns at once, which would be awesome and challenging. I LOVE cameos. ^^

    Maybe something that only spawns when the planets align within your current galaxy (If that happens, if not you could just put it in text on the player's screen "The planets have aligned" or something). I don't have an idea for the boss its self, but I thought the planet thing was a cool idea :)
