The Abyss is the fifth and final area: the boss's lair. A guaranteed Shop sits just before the arena — unless you reached it without entering a single side room, in which case a Tomato waits there instead. Past the shop, a narrow column of breakable blocks guards the boss, which stays dormant until you shoot it.

The fight descends through sections echoing each earlier area — cavern dirt, catacomb spikes, aquifer water (with shootable air pots), and finally a limbo of pure floating debris. The area's name never appears on screen; it can only be seen by pausing.

Enemies

The Final Boss and the pale clones of earlier enemies it releases.
