Preamble/Encouragement/Warning
Hello! Welcome to a guide where I will teach you how YOU can get CRACKED on all bosses!
Just wanted to add some words of encouragement in case you get frustrated trying to get CRACKED on a boss. Antonblast is not for everyone. This is completely optional, and you don't have to do this if you don't want to. If you start getting angry, just close the game and take a break. I know it's what everyone says, but you need to take a break before you break or break something. It doesn't make sense for some, it makes complete sense for others. You are doing great.

Also this is unfinished. I will tweak, add, remove, or update this guide when I decide my strategies are outdated, or when i find new ones.
Note that some bosses have different forms of health. Every Bossbuster has it in cards like Anton, and Satan gate bosses have health bars that need to be depleted. Also, Health bar bosses usually have multiple phases. When you get to a checkpoint, although it saves your progress, getting hit once removes the CRACKED status.
Without further preamble, here's how YOU can get CRACKED on every boss!
Boss 1 - Guide
Brawlbuster
The first boss of the game! And certainly one of the easier ones to get CRACKED.
He has 5 health points with 5 attack patterns and no additional phases. If he grabs you once, he will body slam you and make you lose a heart.

Pride comes before the fall.



Attack 1

For his first attack, he will slowly walk towards you until charging. When he is charging, jump over him until he reaches the edge of the ring. He will bounce off the ring twice. When he is posing for the fans, hammer clutch into the edge of the ring to bounce off it and hit him. No other attacks will work on him.

Attack 2

Brawlbuster will now jump 10 times. After his final jump, he will bounce off the edge 3 times. Every jump he will alternate between jumping towards you and in the direction he was last moving when he was jumping towards you, usually away from you. When on the first jump, keep moving left or right until he is at the peak of the jump or near the peak. When he reaches the peak, move in the opposite direction. For his second jump, move away from him. He will alternate between the first and second jump until he has jumped 10 times. After the jumps, you need to jump over his charges and hit him again.

Attack 3

For his third attack, Brawlbuster will jump onto a corner of the ring and fall into the middle, creating a mini shockwave. Just jump over the shock wave he creates. There is only one shockwave. After this, he charges, and you know the drill by now.

Attack 4

For his fourth attack, Brawlbuster will do all of his previous attacks, starting from the first, second, and then the third. After that, he will bounce off the ring 5 times. His first and second jumps are switched, to trip you up a bit. Remember to dodge and jump over him for his charges,

Attack 5



When on his final peg of health, Brawlbuster will get pissed off and get a chair out. Stand in the corner and intentionally get hit by him, and just as he looks like he's about to hit you, he will hit himself, and make himself vulnerable. Bounce one final time and bust him out of his own arena.



Congratulations!

You should have the CRACKED status when you exit the level. Good job!

Tricks/Things I have discovered: Hammer bouncing off of Brawlbuster won't hurt you, but touching him normally at all will make him slam you into the floor. Brawlbuster can also jump onto the crate Brulo throws when you are at 1 point of health.

Boss 2 - Guide
Jewel Ghoul

Jewel Ghoul! The second boss in the game, and one of the harder ones to get CRACKED in my opinion.

Lust is a distraction most dangerous.



Basic Info

Jewel Ghoul has 2 phases. Hammer Bounce or Hammer Clutch into his head to damage him. Instead of having health indicated by cards like Anton or Brawlbuster, Jewel Ghoul has a health bar that needs to be depleted. His attacks, unlike some of the Bossbusters, are randomized and cannot be predicted for the most part.

Phase 1

Goon Attack

Jewel Ghoul will spawn enemies that walk towards you. When close, the enemies will puff up a balloon and hit Anton, making him lose a heart. They can be killed by clutching into them, or Jewel Ghoul can kill them himself.

Attack 1a

For his first attack, Jewel Ghoul will wind up his fist and go in for a punch. This looks intimidating, but can easily be jumped over.

Attack 2a

For his second attack, Jewel Ghoul pulls out a huge gun and tries to shoot Anton. The bullet bounces off the walls four times before naturally breaking, but Anton's Hammer Bounce can also break it early. When he has 1 bar of health left, it will take 5 bounces to break.

Attack 3a

For his third attack, Jewel Ghoul pulls out a cigar and starts smoking it into the arena. The first fire effect does not hurt anyone, but the 2 projectiles spawned do. They go up the wall and then onto the ceiling, before hitting the opposing wall and dying out. I recommend not trying to get hits in. Note that Pippo does not die from the flames unlike the Jewel Goons.

Attack 4

For his fourth attack, Jewel Ghoul pulls out a deck of cards and shuffles them. DO NOT, and I mean, DO NOT get caught in this attack. If you get caught, you go into tornado mode, and almost certainly will take a hit. Instead, hug a wall and jump before he slams the cards back together.

Attack 5

For his final variant of attack, Jewel Ghoul will summon a Pippo in a minecart that either flies from the left or right wall, depending on which way he points towards. If he points towards the left wall, the Pippo will come from the right towards the left, and vice versa if he points the other way. This rains down 4 spikes from the ceiling, along with Pippo. Pippo will act as a regular enemy on the arena, bumping you around if touched. Pippo is sometimes extremely dangerous, so take him out as quick as you can.

Phase 2



After Jewel Ghoul inhales you in classic Yoshi's Island boss format, you land on three rows of cigarettes you can use as platforms. You have to hit his heart and both of your health points get refilled. His main attack is slamming into the cigarettes to destroy the platform and get you closer into his bile. If you are standing under him when he slams on the floor, you'll get hit. Hammer bounce and clutch into him to damage him. When he has half health, he will periodically spawn red cogs to hurt you. Hammer bounce into them to destroy it. They bounce on the top on the bile. How exactly does Jewel Ghoul have bile and a solid inside if he's a ghost..?

Attack 1b

For his first attack, Jewel Ghoul will spawn 4 moving blue spiked cogs that move from the top of the left wall to the top of the right wall. They all move by sliding on the cigarettes, going up or down depending on what layers were destroyed by Jewel Ghoul.

Attack 2b



For his second attack, Jewel Ghoul will spawn 4 moving blue spiked cogs again. But this time, they bounce off the top of the bile like the red cog mentioned earlier. They also go from the top right of the wall towards the left.

Attack 3b

For his third attack (which if you're quick with the kill you'll probably never see), Jewel Ghoul summons 2 bile bubbles along with a spout of bile that doesn't hurt you, but pushes you upwards. Each comes from the left and right. He repeats this process about 3 times. While in this phase, when the red cog spawns, kill it as quickly as possible by hammer bouncing on it. You should also aim to bounce off the blue cogs, but be careful and try to land in a safe space. Also don't get too greedy with the hits.

For the final hit, you don't need to press X, because Anton will automatically kill Jewel Ghoul himself. Once you have that done, that's a wrap! You have now cracked Jewel Ghoul!
