Indie boss rush Bossgame: The Final Boss Is My Heart launches today

Looks pretty boss

Lilycore Games has dropped their lesbian boss rush game, Bossgame: The Final Boss Is My Heart today on Steam and itch.io. Previously, it was only available on mobile.

Yes, its aesthetics have some clear Undertale vibes with its minimalistic high-contrast colors. However, it’s pretty unique in its story about broke lesbian partners fighting devils in the streets. Meanwhile, you get to flirt between battles and confront your employer. Sounds real feel-good.

Bossgame: The Final Boss Is My Heart is a rhythmic boss rush where the two lovers work together to take down baddies. Between them, you can build up combos, and if one goes down, the other can revive her. The narrative is provided through today’s most fashionable way of socializing: text.

While it doesn’t look like the most extensive or high-concept game, Bossgame: The Final Boss Is My Heart looks like a fun time. As a violent pansexual, I’m always down for indulging my lesbian side, especially in the realm of gaming. It doesn’t come up all that frequently, for some reason. It’s almost like video game relationships, straight or queer, often only exist so someone can die and drive the survivor to a path of revenge. Our action-focused media sure has a strange approach to human romance.

Bossgame: The Final Boss Is My Heart is available today on PC, and can also be found on mobile platforms.
