There's also one that looks like a boar and another one that looks like a duck.

!!Tropes present in this work:
* AttackItsWeakPoint: Each boss has a number of purple segments that are the only vulnerable portions of its anatomy.
* BossGame
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: The spots you can attack are colored purple, and they turn black once you've done sufficient damage to them, cluing you in on when to move to the next one.
* DeathIsASlapOnTheWrist: All you lose from screwing up is your high score. And heck, falling into the bottomless pit at the bottom of the screen simply regurgitates you unless you're on your last bit of health.
* ExcusePlot: Arguable.
* GiantFlyer: The titular sky serpents.
* HighAltitudeBattle: Every battle takes place up in the air. Part of the challenge is not falling off the serpent.
* PuzzleBoss: Each boss after the first has some sort of characteristic challenge, though said challenges are relatively simple to deal with until some of the later serpents.
* SegmentedSerpent
* StatusEffect: The slowing gas, sucking-holes, and paralysis bubbles.
