Terraria, but I’m the Wall of Flesh..?

i play terraria, but i play as the wall of flesh

so, i have all its hardships – for a single life, i choose: left or right, then i’m stuck with that direction for that whole life
also i have its big-ass hitbox, ALSO the eyes and mouth can be hit at the same time

but i have all its abilities, too – lasers, hungry, leeches, much better stats at lower health

weapons, armor, and accessories are a thing of the past – instead, i get my power from slaying bosses

also, master mode (for the harder boss ai)

the exact set of rules is complicated, find more details in the mod’s steam page

QoL mods:
– Better Zoom
– Fargo’s Mutant Mod (not actually used here, but it was enabled and may explain some strange items)
– Better Boss Health Bar
– Change Sleep Time
– Shorter Respawn Time (only when no boss is alive)
– Not Consumable Boss Summon Items
– Building is twice as fast (pain)
– Auto Trash (not used, but visible)

more algo-friendly prose: in this challenge video, i beat terraria in master mode, with a massive twist: my character is the wall of flesh boss, instead of a normal player. this revamps all the game’s mechanics and creates a completely unique playthrough, with its own benefits and challenges – namely, i’m stuck with one side of the world per life. various (somewhat) clever strategies are employed to traverse the game’s world in my new body, survive, and kill bosses.
