Boss: Spider Queen

  1. When the boss fight begins, the Spider Queen will immediately spin into a spiky ball and charge. Stay away from her until she stops.
  2. Several spiders will shoot out of her head; ignore them.
  3. Shoot the Spider Queen's head repeatedly while she is vulnerable. This will deal a small amount of damage.
  4. Continue to avoid her spiky ball attack and shoot her head whenever she stops spinning.
  5. Repeat this process until the Spider Queen is defeated.
