Super Metroid - Spore Spawn - No damage

Spore Spawn beaten without taking damage. Played in real time on Snes9x v1.43 rerecording.

Three things to keep in mind for this fight: One, Spore Spawn can't hit you while swinging around if you're crouched or in the Morph Ball on the floor. Two, when it opens up and reveals its core, always shoot Spore Spawn from the left side because you're less likely to get hit when it closes and continues swinging around. Three, stay in the center of the room because Spore Spawn will sometimes stop and open up in the corner, hitting you in the process. Nothing too difficult here as long as you know how to shoot up while crouched (hold in both the angle up and angle down buttons).

Once it dies.

if you wall jump it to the sides, it will shake a little..

[Desbreko]

@LoLhaha25 Yeah, you can see me do that in my walkthrough videos. Another couple things that will shake when you wall jump off them are the two little glowing faces on either side of the elevator next to where you get the Morph Ball.

Hmmmm...Interesting..this to me is a new way to fight this boss.

Normally I hide in Morph Ball in the left bottom corner and nothing touches me,whenever the small spors stop it means he is about to open his mouth,then i unload 2 Missiles into His Core.

Pretty neat way to fight this boss.

If you really listen, the drumming for this song is pretty complex.

Anyway, this boss is kinda stupid...why does it keep opening its mouth? WHy does it think swinging faster will help when it STOPS to o[en its mouth? Instead of swinging around, it should just drop straighjt down o Samus.

Jesus Christ that music gives me the creeps...

@Slave2thedrago haha, so true xD

[Slave2thedrago]

@CerberusT93 Maybe it has OCD? >_>

finally the answer to why bosses conveniently reveal their weaknesses to you over and over despite being struck there repeatedly. They just.....have these uncontrollable urges!

[CerberusT93]

@Slave2thedrago similarly, why does crocomire keep roaring if it knows that's it's weakness instead of simply charging until it rams samus into a wall?

I can't press both L & R + shoot with my keyboard/keys : (

Or maybe i can.. i haven't tried at all xD

[Slave2thedrago]

@floooooooooooooooood well, its a plant.

But that would make sense anyway I guess. If it gets tired and needs to "stop and catch its breath"

[floooooooooooooooood]

@Slave2thedrago Perhaps it needs to open its mouth to breath.

looks like those clam thingies in MP1 Magmoor Caverns that you shoot to walk on them.
