The Extended Version of Ballos and the Undead Core's Boss Theme.
I DO NOT OWN THIS SONG, CAVE STORY AND ALL OST MUSIC IS OWNED BY PIXEL.

[@Lavie_Azure]

By the way, Pixel didn't know music theory when he made all this.

[@ponponpatapon9670]

that really gives any aspiring musician hope

[@lpfan4491]

At this point, I would not be surprised if Pixel is actually ancient and was the one to come up with the concept of art lol

[@Margatroid]

Knowing music theory has nothing to do with intuitively creating great music. In fact, it could be an impediment.

[@sokool3994]

He doesn't know music theory but damn does he have a good ear.

[@justswift5369]

@@Margatroid Exactly, people think knowing music theory will make you good at making music. It's about creativity and ear above all else.

You can completely cheese his last phase by abusing invincibility after getting hit so you can land right next to his eye before it opens. Then you just change to missiles, wait for the eye to open, tap Z repeatedly and GG you get a disgusting victory because of the non existant amount of effort.

Honestly, I can't thank DM Dokuro (composer of Terraria's Calamity Mod OST) enough for introducing me to this game. I listened to his track, Scourge of the Universe, learned it was a remake of a remix of Last Battle, so instead of listening to that remix I listened to the original. This exact video. I thought: "Hot damn, this game looks and sounds amazing, I should check it out!" The rest, as they say, is history.

[@JavierGomezX]

For a 1 minute loop, it is really impressive and iconic. It is still in my top 10 final boss theme songs after all these years.

[@nuredingeziqi679]

To me, this song embodies one specific thing _Adrenaline_ I don't think any other track has ever given me this effect for so long. I just love the whole Bloodstained Sanctuary part of the game. It might even be my favorite single section of a game I enjoy the most

[@ScoutNess]

"Any Boss Fight" Toroko's First Boss Fight with this theme is so epic man, 10/10 amazing game.

[@tea-stomach-cycle6385]

It’s unfortunate Ballos didn’t have his own theme, because this song is so much more associated with the undead core in my mind. Especially when it goes to that quick arpeggio, it reminds me of full powered spur shots in misery’s face.

[@shumanbeans]

I took me so many tries to reach Ballos, that by then I forgot this track was used for the Undead Core

[@socks9475]

+Bob Bobingson took me about 70 deaths but i killed him on normal on 3ds, FUCKING WORTH IT

[@prettyboypop]

People always associate this theme with Ballos, but I've always thought of the Undead Core when listening to this. I always felt the Ballos battle had almost no build-up, so I barely felt emotion other than frustration when I died. The Undead Core (though an easy boss) gave me the feeling of "I'm finally going to pummel that Doctor guy I've been taught to hate throughout the game and ruin his plan" whereas Ballos made me feel like "Oh another boss? Cool." Does anybody else agree???

[@Khrene]

True, Ballos' story build up was _really_ minimal. But literally going through hell to save Curly, then seeing this fucker, getting my ass whooped then *finally* overcoming him really cemented him in my mind. Realizing his deep seeded malignance is the force behind the bloodshed and mayhem is kinda like the cherry on top.

[@prettyboypop]

Khrene Cleaver Well what I mean is that the boss didn't feel super awesome and climactic during the fight, only afterward.

[@Khrene]

Pardon, I didn't mean to contest, I meant to explain that we engaged with and interpreted the same experience in different lights and expose why others may resonate The only reason Ballos was any kind of epic for me is because he was that last thing keeping me from the ending I wanted. Any feelings I got from beating him had very little to do with the story but with the challenge associated with the gameplay. Cause like you implied, Ballos just kinda shows up and says some crap and you kill him, and then his sister is like: "Yo remember that _one _*_missable_* conversation we had like halfway through the game? You know, I mention my brother and like a war or something? Yeah that was him and he behind all this... Alright this island is collapsing, kthxbai."

[@prettyboypop]

Khrene Cleaver Oh I see what you're getting at there.

[@mrbattons7181]

XFroster9000X I always thought of it as. You went to hell looking for curly, accedentally ran into a ancient shrine that was inhabited by fallen angels then in the middle of it was a demon looking thing that kept you from escaping. Ya no build up, Doctor had a bigger impact on the story but I personally believe ballos was added as more of a easter egg than an actual important story ark.

[@cleverpunandshiz6842]

I fought Ballos with the machine gun! And got my ass kicked

[@septimus5202]

Lol,! I know the pain. I did it all of the different polar star trade weapons. (and the polar star itself.) No missiles, but that's probably because I had no life.

[@cleverpunandshiz6842]

Sacred grounds is really hard, worse than Ballos' himself. So hard to arrive at his room with sufficient amount of HP. And, this sound is just awesome. Don't have anything more to say, just listen it while battling Undead Core and Ballos' final form.

[@aaalicethegoat]

I know it's 7 years after the fact but you can abuse Bute damage to get through the RNG hallway with at least a little bit of health, then keep loading between RNG hallway and the next room collecting the hearts that appear there over and over to farm back to full health. Then during Heavy Press you can farm the infinite Bute spawns before dropping down to Ballos.

The fight with the doctor is the most satisfying thing I've ever accomplished in a video game. The build up and the feelings that surround the fight are just too immense. I always associate this song with the doctor and not ballos for this reason. It's a perfect mix of heroic and vengeful. That one note at 0:42 sounds like a battle cry. This song is just perfect.

[@aaalicethegoat]

tbf this does play while fighting the Doctor, in a sense. Because it's when he possesses Misery, Sue and the Undead Core.

This game is a couple days older than me, I'm on my way to defeat Ballos, wish me luck! Edit 1: HOLY SHIT, HELL IS HORRIBLE, HEAVY PRESS MAKES ME WANT TO PUKE, AND I HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN BALLOS YET. Edit 2: I died at Ballos' final phase, but it's alright. I'm starting to get better at killing these pesky angels. Edit 3: Ballos himself is easy, but it becomes problematic with Heavy Press, the Butes, Deletes, Mesas, etc... And without any nearby checkpoint. Also, I don't have my life pot anymore, I wasted it on the Undead Core. But I'm still going in for the kill! Edit 4: I WON! But somehow, I don't think it's over. The doctor, in immesurable pain after his defeat as the Undead Core, is still alive. He cannot control Misery or Balrog anymore, but he's still powerful enough to make the Seal Chamber crumble on itself... But oh well, he's not going far without any powerful corpses to possess, so I still won! I kinda feel sorry for Ballos though... He's been locked-up for being a good person, his own magic made him kill his wife and kids, and he looks like a red-eyed turd, that's tough. Cave Story just became my third favorite game, my second being Hollow Knight, and my first being Terraria.

[@nuredingeziqi679]

In my opinion, he is the easiest of the final stretch. As soon as you kill Misery, the fight is as good as over. Sue is very little truble on her own, and then you have the Core itself, which is not hard at all without Misery

[@pokemaster361]

I think the only hard parts about the Sanctuary are the boss fight against Heavy Press, the falling blocks section, and Ballos's final form. The actual sanctuary has hearts in just enough abundance to keep you alive with about 30 HP or so. Ballos 1 has a very predictable moveset, and he pauses just enough for you to dodge easily if you keep your distance. Ballos 2 just jumps around, and he pauses after every third jump. Ballos 3 is a little tricky, but if you can make it through the cog stages in the New Super Mario Bros. stages, you can get through this stage with no problem. Ballos 4 is only hard if you aren't using the technique where you just stand on him like I did. Ballos 4 himself isn't the problem, but rather, the little Cherubs that keep swarming you from all angles.

Ah yes, the song where I feel pumped enough to dump all my rockets on the boss' face |3

[@thezdude8512]

Same strats.

[@MrKrazyoshi]

I like you. You're one of the few people who's skulls aren't numb.

[@masonhhoffman]

It's a shame Ballos doesn't get his own theme

[@LotDW2007]

You sir made me laugh when I'm in an extremely depressed mood. Thank you! :D

[@matthewgarrison9472]

So this is the theme the Devourer of Gods' from Terraria's Calamity mod got it's theme from.

[@twerdeffan1080]

Mathew Garrison Yep, that's right! That mod is insanely fun!

[@matthewgarrison9472]

Alex Ander I got the game for my 3DS (not CS 3D) and I got all 3 endings. Ballos made me cry. But I somehow kicked his ass :D

[@Omnimatrix10]

At 0:49 I picture Quote letting go an eye-destroying Spur beam into the gaping, mercilless maw of the Undead Core. The 8-bit trumpets alongside it seem to underline the bot's unstoppable conviction to succeed. To fulfill his final purpose.

[@Savapine]

i remember when first figthed ballos: i said OMFG ITS SO DANGEROUS but now i can in 3:45

[@HidamariXIX]

strangely enough that's the exact time I can beat him at too

[@itsyaboiwyatt3196]

I spent three years trying to beat Ballos. Restarted the game to try to beat em with every weapon... I finally killed him with the spur after hours of trying... Then I realized I forgot to use my life pot, and I could've beat em way earlier.

[@El_Omar2203]

Im hearing Kirby Squeak Squad theme here

[@rileysanford3674]

That dedede face!

[@jasper2256]

+Riley Sanford dedede finally learned how to truly be a troll.

[@supahstarclod]

The beginning drums sounds like the regular boss theme in Kirby: Squeak Squad.

[@coolguy9648]

Man this fits any final boss in any game

[@osretrogames64]

Mainly Mega Man.

[@furiousforestfire1273]

Supajosh1845

[@Meowlegend7]

Not exactly. It could fit for many final bosses, but not every. This wouldnt fit Megaman Zero 4's final boss for example.

[@TheRealExec]

@@furiousforestfire1273peak answer

[@blazefire60]

did any body see simular to the old theme and the of an of Terraria calamity boss

[@LotDW2007]

Thank you so much for pointing it out, I will fix it right now for you. ^^

[@VarthRock]

The Undead Core was FUCKING SCARY.

[@VarthRock]

Really? Both Sue and Misery usually bother me in that battle xD

[@coiledAgent]

My strat for undead core: Step 1: SAVE HEALTH ON THE FIRST TWO BATTLES. Get gud, they're really not that hard if you're used to them. Step 2: Spam blade on Sue and Misery as soon as you can. Even if you have the spur, the Blade is still the highest dps weapon when spammed at point blank. They don't have contact damage unless Sue is attacking, so just walk into them and spam lvl 2 blade, and it completely destroys them. Step 3: Once Sue and Misery are dead, hop up on the floating core platforms and start firing MAX lvl charge shots from the Spur into the Core's face. Step 4: Always remember that once it's health is low enough, it changes into it's final form, and shoots out 3 unbreakable projectiles that must clear the area before the Spur can be used properly. If it's health is low, and it hides it's weak point early, it's going to change.

[@gitl7918]

actually i would prefer keeping misery alive because she spawns minions that you can kill for health

[@kaitlinbragman6266]

Cheeseburger Freedom Man thats what I like too

[@juanmarcelo589]

This music is really at the edge of the climax of the top of the point of the game history and tension.

[@HardcoreNicotine]

for some reason i replaced the sound file for this with megalovania idk how to change it back

[@ocass66]

Just replace Megalovania with the theme you think it should be using the same method.

[@dracibatic2433]

Your mistake

[@Omnimatrix10]

Undertale mod where all of its soundtrack is replaced with Cave Story music.

[@aidenhanson884]

Omnimatrix10 I'd play either game where the soundtrack is replaced with the one from the other

[@Pyro25100]

First off, his name is epic. And welcome to the badass silent protagonist party, Quote :)

[@riseckr]

Este juego es hermoso (:

[@ogn1k110]

keep it up, not much left to a million views!

[@Konradix05]

This kicks so much ass, it is so much fucking better than the Wii version.

[@VioletIsOnTheNets]

Fuck yeah. The Wii music sucks.

[@Stratelier]

***** I think there was maybe one track on the Wii version's remix I liked better than the original. The rest . . . NOPE, the original mixes are waaay better.

[@thezdude8512]

When I got it on the wii I thought during the title screen: Did you make a remix of all the tracks, then tried to smother them in a pillow?

[@Valery0p5]

1:58 *VIOLENT HEADBANGING*

[@ManlyMatterss]

this is the megalovania of 2004

[@thecommenter6773]

after the undead core fight ,it could be said that the doc got a taste of his own medicine: death ,(yes ,he did tend to the teams medical needs before getting the demon crownbut that was to trick them), but then he killed many mimigas.
