• Hey everyone happy Christmas Eve we're aware of what's happened with the source code so to keep this simple absolutely don't post it on the site or use it to make mods with (it's not particularly preferable toward this end anyway) and tread lightly in general until we see how this settles, thanks to all and have a great holiday season -DT

Balfrog is a magical shell encasing Balrog that obtains its behavior from Balrog and allows him to apply his weight over a larger area, that's it. All of his attacks are Balrog based, when he opens his mouth it is providing an opening for him to preform a variation of the puff bubble attack he used in his second fight, thus allowing you to fire inside the shell at the Balrog inside.
... Maybe Balrog was originally a frog, and Misery kissed the frog hoping for a Prince and got Balrog.

This twisted her mentality and to make balrog a real prince she went to Ballos so they could be crowned as King and Queen. That is why she wanted the Demon Crown made.
... HUzzah!?

You aren't serious about that... are you?
I mean, Misery marrying the toaster who's her "punching bag" is laughable.
Then again, we've seen mutch worse things happening.

Damn, not this again!

Then why did you Quote X-Calibar?

I was talking about this:

In science it doesn't make sense for Balrog to change from inorganic? to an abnormal organic being of huge size, with invincible skin etc etc...
andwhyisit, your theory is sound and explains well~

Still... I'm a practioner of sorcerery, and as evidenced by a fellow wizard from the movie Willow. I've seen a solid rock turn into a bird :cool: !! And a goblin turn into a dragon.... thing :eek:

I think it's time we settle this...
*raises wand*

[... wait didn't Misery lose to technology... uh oh...]


EDIT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFDK6h3gvcg Willow tribute video :p Loved this movie.

Who says Balfrog is organic, though?

I said it, and I stand by it, the stuff it coughs up on you looks organic enough.

The things balfrog coughs up are a red version of what the flying gaudis shoot at you, and they have a clover shape. But the white round things balrog shoots at you looks sort of like balls of light.. actually they closely resemble the things that come out of you when you die in the old Megaman games.

He uses a variation of the white things in his previous fight.

The stuff looks like puff bubbles coloured red. If they're organic, so are the puff bubbles that Balrog shoots and so is Balrog.
Remember the level of technology involved in these weapons, the puff bubbles is an energy/magic based weapon like the fireball, spur, polar star, snake and machine gun are.

The nemesis is some divine weapon cooked up by some goddess of cave story's world, just check the description of the weapon.

The blade is tied to the spirit of king somehow, don't understand how though.

The bubbler is probably chemical based with something extra that can preserve the integrity of the bubbles for longer but can be removed at any point. The bubbles are most likely acidic.

Missiles are most likely compact but would still deal out a fair amount of explosive power.

..wait how did I go from puff bubbles to explaining all weapons? :cool:
