39 epic dumpster bear - 3-7 sand worm stomping

Dear Readers,

Dumpster Desert almost conquered! Only thing left is the Sand Worm boss!

It's a gross looking thing that bursts out of the ground and burrows again . Its tail is the weak point and you gotta stomp on it when it's exposed and spawns out little sand worms.

On the "Try Again?" Screen you can leave it and it will keep spawning more of those little sand worms... I wondered what would happen if I just left this go on for ages and it continues the pattern but just stops spawning them eventually! Not a bad idea! The screen allows for 12 of them until they just stop being spawned. Anyway, they were grossing me out so I went back to stomping them!

On my next attempt, I found that you don't have to wait for the larval spawning, but it's trickier to catch the tail while it's still moving. It's like when you have to catch the star at the end of the eel's tail in Super Mario 64. Plus, it goes slower when it's going to spawn more larvae, so it can catch you out that way too.

It's thrilling to stomp it when it's going fast but it's way easier to bounce on it multiple times while it's spawning.

An intimidating but not too difficult a boss after!

A cutscene plays out that explains how the sand worm was a ruse by the corporation, who have now moved on to Northern Alberta, Dumpster Bear's former home! That's the next stop. Things are getting interesting! We'll see the devastation done to my home and shake a paw at the corporation!

This game's developer is Canadian, so I wonder if they're based in that region too?

World 4, Forest Wasteland's map screen is dark but pretty. Moonlight is obscured by clouds and it looks like quite a cold scene.
