Well, i had that one a while. i think it was time i finally posted it.
I like my final battle
but i felt it needed a better background.
the inspiration for the sprites is half Breath of Fire 2 and half one of the Romancing Saga for the SNES


I guess i should say something about the setting.
well, when the protagonists, team ravager, got defeated by the human heroes, they used the Orb of Dorien to fuse into Terranos. To be able to do this, they need to sacrifice something which would be temporarily boosted for the duration of the battle. in this case, it would be their hyper forms/evolution. Also, in their third form, if the player reach there, they would have sacrificed their individuality, fusing them into one being instead of still being visibly separated like here. Though in this case, after the battle, they would simply fade away, having nothing that constitute themselves existing anymore.

Anyway, the group get engulfed into a giant ball of light. the human heroes, realizing that the monsters are transforming and that they cannot stop it, decide to got into their own powered up forms. now, i have trouble deciding on the collective name for them.
Angel mode?
Virtues forms?
i dunno

anyway, after the heroes transform into their final form, they stand there while watching Terranos emerging from the giant ball of light. in doing so, he produce a raging scream that shakes the environment, enough to shatter the background like a panel of glass to reveal this black hole looking void behind it. in other words, its the PROTAGONISTS that create the final battle scene.
anyway, the camera pans around, looking at terranos as he takes the stance for battle, before it shift to behind the human heroes, as if to goad the confused player into thinking that he is now controlling the antagonists. The battle start with terranos's boss lifebar appearing (500 000 HP if at max level) and with the human heroes flying and charging at
Terranos. the player is bound to try and control the human heroes, not realizing he is actually controlling the limbs of terranos (the right leg of ouroboros in this case ).
to stop the confusion, once the menu comes up to choose a special attack, the camera will pan on the actual piece of terranos the player currently controls, also pausing the game to allow the player to get his bearings back.

and thats how it goes
