i don't Even know if you could make it halfway through considering the kiss notes in act two that increase the health drain to absurd levels for about 20 seconds...
and you *do* end up losing technically because of it...
but from a NON-technical standpoint, you do beat them by making it all the way through.
ironically the glow squid (AKA neo squeaky) is bowser but is the only squidly member who DOESN'T have a high-pitched voice, apart from soft squeaky, fixing the issue everyone had with act 3
