Added a (very rough) first pass at boss introduction banners! They'll help you learn what you're about to face. The colors are based on the core itself, but... there's definitely a lot of work to be done here #indiedev #solodev #monogame #fallingblocks

Banners like that do double work: they teach the fight and they mark it as a fight, which is the half people underrate. The thing I would test is whether it is still on screen while the boss telegraphs its first attack - if it is, players read the banner, miss the tell, and then blame the tell.
