Description:
The Jumbo Puff is a large monstrous creature known as a Worldeater, and is the first main boss of the game. In its first phase, it will frequently try to grab the Mkton mechsuit that the protagonist is piloting, to pull it closer. During its second phase, it will try to inhale the Mkton, during which the player must shoot Sqvips, small creatures into its mouth to prevent it from doing so. (There is an achievement called Snack-Time, for feeding Jumbo Puff six Sqvips.) Should Mkton get too close while Jumbo Puff is inhaling, it will chew Mkton briefly before spitting it back out.
Once Jumbo Puff’s health is depleted to one third remaining, there will be a scene that interrupts the fight, where it once again chomps the Mkton, but this time, it pulls the protagonist out of the mechsuit, throws him into the air, and swallows him.
The final phase takes place inside Jumbo Puff’s belly, and the protagonist is seen swimming in stomach acid. If all stamina, or Ki, is depleted while swimming, this will cause a unique instant game over scene, where the protagonist will pass through Jumbo Puff’s gut, and be ejected out the other end, only to be sat on and wedged between its butt cheeks.
In order to defeat Jumbo Puff, the protagonist must climb the stomach walls and strike at its heart. Once all its health is depleted, Jumbo Puff will collapse, and the protagonist will escape the mouth.
