  • Well my sincere apologies to the cube for assuming nobody would care about you. The comments have proven that lots of people felt the bond to you and I guess I’m just heartless (and proud). Can’t deny though that this fight is basically your fault for not even attempting to step off of the conveyer belt when clearly you had al occasion to do so 😤😤😤😤
    OLD Description
    Here you fight your brainwashed friend who you are supposed to care about but in reality there wasn't enough character development to really feel anything and you are just here for fun.

    I like the hidden wordplay in this battle. Cubes attacks mostly revolve around the environment rather than direct attacks, and they tend to attack around the edges of the screen, forcing you to stay “Close to him”.

    This level and the cube is a good allegory for how difficult it is to reach out, and how hard it can be to watch someone close to you start to decline. sometimes it's hard not to hurt people by accident when you are so sad and angry at the state of things. Sometimes it's hard to express your feelings without being harsh or wanting to run away from them.

    Understanding that the Sad Square has some sort of connection with the small square that you play as before going into this boss fight is what you might need. It's a small tale of a friend, a close friend, becoming corrupted and forcing you to face off against them in order to save them. Be happy that you saved them in the end and didn't have to kill them, like other games....

    In general, the phrase "Close to Me" in the JSaB universe can have several meanings.
    1. It is used by corruption to lure the player closer to their already infected Friend (and infect the player themselves, of course).
    2. The player is still, well, *close* and dear to a Friend, and he tries his best not to succumb to corruption (you can see by the sections before the laser that occur after each attack, as well as by the scene where you can't help him in any way) and the phrase "Close to Me" is a cry for help.
    3. Well, a play on words, where at the level you literally have to stay "close" to Friend in order to avoid attacks, also matters.
    tbh, this cute lil guy is much stronger than he seems, he is the only boss that literally restored his body from corruption in the end of battle (triangle just made the work ultimately done), unlike every freaking boss. and also - not everyone will be able to use their cat ears as a DEFIBRILLATOR, DAMN it-
    didn't think that a game about simple geometric shapes would make me cry.

    I feel like there was more effort put into this boss than Annihilate.
    So, most of the attacks revolve around the edges of the screen. Implying that, you want to be close to him. Like the song name.
    And then there's the laser part, where he reaches out for you, because you're too far.
    But then he gets zapped, implying the demon doesn't you to be close to him.
    This amount of effort also shows how, losing a friend is super tough. As well as the difficulty. I'd say it's harder than Annihilate.
    The final attack also implies to get even closer than before, and eventually it spins so fast you have to dash.
    Like you'd dash to help your friend. And also, since you're closer to the cube, it's like, again, losing a friend. You miss them more and more.
    So much effort was put into this battle. JS&B had a lot of thought put into it. Take it from not one battle, but the game itself.

    most obviously know a lot about the fight
    1. The song name, Close To Me literally means it,in fact the whole boss fight revolves around you dodging their attacks by staying close to him/her. In fact mid fight when they're crawling,they reach out to you as if they're saying you're too far away
    2. Their facial expression before an attack warns you about the next attack they're going to do. yes the claw part counts,as using their right eye and frown,they make up a claw
    the whole entire features i just stated shows that they're trying to protect you and they are trying to fight through the corruption
    i hope i summed it up

    Didn't they start to think that the cube (friend) could be expressing their fears in us? but... not to hurt us, but rather... I think he does it for help and looking for someone to save him from his state...
    Another thing at 1:34 is how she falls defeated (probably from exhaustion) and she seems to ask us for help but she seems to lose control and attack us again but also...
    At 2:58 there is no more singing and ´close to me´ is not heard anymore and only the instrumental in the background is heard. I feel that this moment feels more serious because ´friend´ does not seem to show any more signs of some kind of feeling more than anger and sadness
    but the last thing to emphasize is that the first time I heard this music I felt that 'friend' was a person who couldn't confide his deep feelings to absolutely anyone because every time he did, he got hurt a month and worse...
    Something that occurred to me is that the little blue cube could be her last friend and she, afraid of the same thing that happened last time, tries to get away little by little from him so that he can only forget her and not hurt him again
    but the idea also occurred to me that she says "close to me" because she is trying to distance herself, but the little blue cube knows that she has all this storm of problems and she doesn't want to leave her alone, that's why this fight happens because it's the girl trying to get away but her friend refuses to leave her alone...
    And one thing, I noticed that (almost) nobody talks about after the fight, that is, how 'friend' breaks down and they are happy, what would happen here is that the girl finally confesses everything to her friend and his friend rather than leaving her Alone she survives the wave of confessions and tears to later treat her understandingly and calm her down.
    Well I think I have to stop because I wrote almost an entire book around a music of cubes and circles.
    If so, I think that 'friend' looks like a girl especially after they give her those 2 cat ears.

    Regret is saws because it tears it up inside.
    Rationalization is gears because it's trying to compartmentalize what it cannot.

    This level is such a masterpiece
    The song is an ablsolute banger
    Really emotional, while having no dialogue
    The game literraly hints you how to win the battle, you should stay CLOSE TO THEM

    This song makes me cry. A lot feeling about lost love and betray, but still something loves. So many different strong emotions. And vision of art accomplies song

    Honestly the song will make more sense when the new update drops because it is a unused chapter and the only thing that big cube does throughout the intro of the game is hugging small square so it's neat seeing the devs putting effort into finding the perfect songs

    The fact that the sad cube has more love than the player when you die is just so majestic.

    For me.. the image of the Boss Battle was like a battle between an individual's Rage and Depression.
    I know this is weird but its pretty much like it.
    Imagine a person who experience such a tragic past.. that chunk of sadness and a dump size of anger at it's mix...
    And makes much sense that the song says "close to me" ... It's like its telling us to those people who are in depression and/with rage.. needs to be comforted and to be well treated.
    Just saying..

    I just thought
    At 2:19 they send out a pulse and then start grabbing out
    Perhaps they knew what was about to happen and didnt want
    To hurt you so they used a pulse to get you away from them..?
