I personally think it would be tough to have a harder boss than
Satan himself. :) I mean we're talking about a crazed wacko
in an oversized snail robot; not much of a comparison to the
"Lord of Hell" himself. :) The only real difficulty with the "snail"
is beating him in time to eat dinner since you have to chase
him around the screen and then literally destroy him piece by
friggin' piece. :p
