YMMV / Dusty Revenge

• Breather Boss: The re-release have a Breather Optional Boss with Ganuk, the chained-up elephant boss in an underground cavern. He's a lot slower than most previous bosses, with his sole attack being dumping easily-avoidable projectiles into the screen, and being confined to a corner it's easy to have Dusty spam attacks on him and shaving his health away within seconds. What's even better is that he's fought after Lykane, one of the toughest bosses prior to Craven (seen below).
• Complete Monster: Craven is a malicious warlord longing for ultimate power. Formerly a member of the Circle of Eight, a group of explorers who made a pact to protect the Illumna race, Craven betrayed his companions and slaughtered the Illumna so he could steal all of their power-enhancing dust. Amassing an army of mercenaries, Craven hunted down the other members of the circle—one of whom was Dusty's father who stole a component Craven needed for an unstoppable war machine. He later sent mercenaries to attack Dusty's house to get the component, one of whom ended up murdering Dusty's fiancée Daisy instead, and kidnapped Rondel's son to use him as leverage. After countless mercenaries fail to kill Dusty and his allies, Craven tries to murder Dusty personally, tearing off the head of one of his lackeys for failing him and leaving several others to die so he can escape after he's wounded. When Craven is confronted by the heroes, he threatens to kill Rondel's son by crushing him to death.
• That One Boss: Lykane the wolf, who hits like a truck, have multiple layers of health, moves all over the place and slices Dusty into ribbons with his dual blades. The game even teases players with a Bait-and-Switch where a cutscene seemingly plays after you defeat Lykane... only for Lykane to rip off his armor instead. There's still two layers of health, it's not over yet!
