boss rush
mode
Boss rush in Asteroid Pong is a string of bosses with no normal levels in between: it starts at level 5 and jumps 5 levels at a time, with a titan every second boss. The high score counts how many bosses you beat.
How boss rush works
In boss rush you only fight bosses, each one as if it were that level's boss in the campaign, so they keep getting tougher.
| boss | level | what shows up | phases |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.º | level 5 | boss or giant | 2 |
| 2.º | level 10 | titan | 3 stages + core |
| 3.º | level 15 | boss or giant | 3 |
| 4.º | level 20 | titan | 3 stages + core |
| 5.º | level 25 | boss or giant | 3 |
| 6.º | level 30 | titan | 3 stages + core |
Each boss gives you 90 s (110 on easy) and each titan 99 s; every hit on a part adds 1 s. Goals do not move you on: you have to break it. In this mode all power-ups can drop from the start, without waiting for the level that unlocks them.
High score and achievements
The boss rush high score counts bosses beaten and has its own tab in high scores. Titans count as bosses.
- boss after boss: beat 3 bosses in a row in boss rush (40 coins).
- marathon: beat 8 bosses in a row in boss rush (150 coins).
The full list is in achievements.
Secret boss in boss rush
Once you have beaten the first boss, any boss or giant (not titans) can show up as the secret boss Ω, with a 4 % chance.
Boss rush in the retro view
The retro view menu has a boss rush too. Beating any boss or titan in the retro view unlocks Pong 1972.
