Randomized minibosses actually did improve gameplay, at first I thought it would of been a bad change, but honestly its an awesome change!
Its a really fun twist to be expecting to play your normal class and then...boom! Your playing as a miniboss and have to switch strategies.
Gemini is really fun, but some of the weapon's hit detections are finicky, specially badspot and ephialtes, Randomizer and pandemonium mode are the stuff though, I love those rounds. The game is making a turn for the better, I honestly don't care about the miniboss shop being gone anymore, I do have a few suggestions though.
Why not add buyable trails, you know those things that leave emitters behind you? I love those things and that would be a nice cosmetic effect to buy.
I originally wanted to make a post about the possibility of items coming back, but the fear of being attacked with a one page paragraph stopped me from even doing so.
