Giant Sand Worms: First OlderQuest Boss Fight

The First Boss Battle

Recently I’ve been working on the first boss fight for OlderQuest: the giant sand worms! They’re inspired by the creatures in Dune — massive, otherworldly predators that feel genuinely threatening.

Attack Patterns

I started with a single attack pattern where the worms emerge and chomp at the player.

Emergence Attack

This felt too simple, so I added a secondary phase where the worms jump out of the ground in an arc, creating more dynamic combat.
