Final Levels

I'm just making a poll that will decide something for the future.....

I say make the final level a "cake walk" of sorts, make 'em think "Oh, this is the final level? Seriously? I went through all of that stuff to deal with this?" only to basically drop them into the bowels of hell with the final boss. "Oh, this is easeeeaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAHHHH! OH MY GOD WHAT THE HELL! HOLY SHIT THAT THING IS BIG!" or whatever.

Well, it ultimately depends on the tone of what you're going for with your game. Since I am under the assumption this is your Eka's tribute game you're referring to, it depends on how you structure the game to be totally honest. Are you putting the player on an epic quest to become victorious? Well, I would highly suggest the first option then. If the game is a more comedic or romp filled game, where victory isn't the point, but instead it's to experience everything the game has to offer, then I would suggest your second option, however, either way, I would say creating some level of buildup is important. Of course, the third option could be good if you want to subvert the general expectation of being a final level, but that would best work in a comedic game, and if that's your angle, I'd say go for that. All options are viable, but in the end, choose whichever one best fits the feeling and tone of the game you're trying to create.
