Making Progress

  Designed two of the bosses as "proof of learning" for the player to show off they know how to play.  Not sure where to put them though.

  Ok, like, yes - you know how to jump/fly/shoot now, and the boss should go in the stage it's appropriate for... but should I put it closer to the start or closer to the end?  On the one hand putting such challenges early means the player has to master all their tricks early, on the other hand once you complete a learning challenge there's no where else to go but down.

  Actually, given the split level design I'm using I should probably place these bosses at the split path junctions so that if the player doesn't catch on they can get reprieve stages without feeling like they lost.
