Bloodbath is one of the more gruesome bosses in Pikmin: The After Years. It initially appears as a large, floating red eye with a vertical slit pupil, but later forms a mass of dark matter around itself to serve as a body surging with red energy, complete with a tail and disembodied, clawed hands. Late in the story, Bloodbath is revealed to be one of the three forces, alongside the Smoky Progg and Dark Matter Warrior, commanded by Zero Two; coincidentally, all three do not appear in Remembrance Ravine. Additionally, Bloodbath is the younger relative of Zero Two and the offspring of the Dark Virus. Furthermore, in Galactic Warpzone, wherein a more difficult version of every boss, under the influence of dark matter, is refought, Bloodbath, the Smoky Progg, and the Dark Matter Warrior remain the same as all three are under the substance's influence.
In its first form, Bloodbath's only attack is to ram into Pikmin in an attempt to depetal them and knock them down. The only way to harm Bloodbath is by throwing Pikmin at its eye, which is unfortunately too high for the mighty Purple Pikmin to reach. After its health is fully depleted, Bloodbath seemingly disappears into dark matter, but then reappears in a much stronger form, beginning phase two of the battle. In this form, Bloodbath's main attack consists of firing stars that will explode on contact, killing any Pikmin in the blast radius, which is smaller than that of a bomb rock. It also occasionally uses its hands to slash Pikmin in half, instantly killing them. When its veins glow blue, call every Pikmin off of its eye, as it is about to blink, instantly killing any still attached. When one-fourth of Bloodbath's health is depleted, it begins occasionally releasing blood from the veins covering its body; the resulting puddles eventually form into Bloodlexes. When one-half of its health is depleted, Bloodbath begins charging a devastating attack, indicated by its eye glowing a gradually more intense hue of yellow; once fully charged, Bloodbath projects a deadly laser beam that instantly kills any Pikmin and downs any unprotected leader it hits. After it concludes its laser attack, Bloodbath becomes temporarily open to attack while it stops to rest. If the Reflector has been obtained, which is by defeating Bloodbath in the Secluded Cemetery, the specter's laser can be reflected back at it, momentarily stunning it and rendering it defenseless, although it will immediately begin its next attack upon recovering instead of stopping to rest as it does normally. Upon defeat, Bloodbath's eyeball gruesomely tears apart from its body, and the body and hands disintegrate into dark matter. Bloodbath's eye can be recovered for fifty seeds.
The only way to refight Bloodbath again is by completing story mode.

Bloodbath is a 1.9/2.0/2.1 Extreme Demon mega-collaboration level hosted, verified and published by Riot on 12 August 2015. Following its verification, it was initially placed at #1 on the Official Extreme and Insane Demon Records List (nowadays known as the Demonlist). Barely any other level would challenge this position for over a year until Sakupen Hell was released, marking the beginning of Bloodbath's descent in perceived difficulty. It is the second instalment of the community-designated trilogy of similarly-themed Extreme Demons, succeeding Cataclysm and preceding aftermath. An extended remake, Bloodlust, was verified by knobbelboy and released in 2.1.
One of the most popular and recognizable levels in the game, Bloodbath is the most downloaded and liked level in the game that is not featured in a gauntlet, map pack, or Geometry Dash World. In the Geometry Dash 10-Year Anniversary presentation, the level was voted the second most favourite level of players, behind Change of Scene. HistoryOrgin and creationBefore Bloodbath, Riot initially began creating a ridiculously difficult level known as 'Silent Akbar' along with Cyclic and Aurorus, which was intended to surpass the difficulty of ICE Carbon Diablo X but was abandoned due to its impossible difficulty so Riot decided to host another project. On 2 June 2015, Riot uploaded the first preview of a level called 'Bloodbath', featuring a difficult ship part. A week later, Riot posted the second preview of Bloodbath, featuring Havok, Giron and Ggb0y's parts. Afterwards, Michigun uploaded a preview of his part in the level. On 6 July 2015, Riot uploaded a trailer video of Bloodbath featuring all of the creators involved in the project. Verification processRiot began making progress in attempting to verify Bloodbath, getting 48% on 26 June 2015. He then got 58% on 13 July, 65% on 3 August and then 90% on 6 August.[6] Riot then crashed at 94% on 8 August 2015, crashing at Ggb0y's part, eventually becoming his worst fail in the level. Eventually, on 12 August 2015, Riot finally verified Bloodbath after over 25,000+ attempts and countless amounts of practice on stream. The level would immediately be placed at #1 on the Geometry Dash forums Demonlist after its verification. The race to beat BloodbathSince Bloodbath's verification and placement as the new hardest Demon, numerous skilled players attempted to beat the level. The first progressions were made by Zeostar and Sandstorm. Zeostar got 25% a few days after the level was released, and then 27% and 34%. Afterwards, Zeostar would temporarily stop making more progress. At the same time, Sandstorm began practising the level, making progress on the first half and then on the second half before dropping the level. Mabby01, a skilled player at that time, made good progress on Bloodbath, getting 61% on 16 January 2016, right before beating Cataclysm a day later. He would later get 66% on 5 February and 71% on 14 February. Like the other two, Mabby also dropped the level. The most notable race was between two skilled players: Surv and Quasar. On 8 February 2016, Quasar made his first progress video, getting 42-79%. A week later, on 16 February 2016, he made further progress, completing the second half of the level. Quasar made his first substantial progress on the level, getting 39% ten days later and reaching halfway through the level a day later. Quasar would immediately catch a flu after his 61% progress, thus taking a break from his progress. Surv, on the other hand, started making progress on Bloodbath after beating Cataclysm. He would eventually crash at 96% on 6 March 2016, making it his worst fail in the game and the closest progress in beating the level at the time. After recovering, Quasar started to make more progress, getting 77% on 9 March 2016. Finally, on 14 March 2016, Quasar beat Bloodbath after a fail at 90% and over 28,000+ attempts. LegacyBloodbath remains one of the most popular Extreme Demon levels in Geometry Dash, if not the most popular. It is currently the most downloaded and liked Extreme Demon in-game. The level remained unbeaten for seven months until Quasar beat it on 14 March 2016. Bloodbath has started a trend of actively ensuring that all Extreme Demons should be verified legitimately. While two other levels (Theory of Darkness and unnerfed Phobos) managed to temporarily dethrone Bloodbath, both levels were ultimately unrated due to being hacked verifications. Bloodbath is also the first Top 1 Demon level to remain in the top spot for over a year, officially dethroned by Sakupen Hell on 14 August 2016. With the addition of SINGULARITY, Bloodbath has fallen out of the Top 50 hardest Demons. It had remained in the Top 50 for nearly 40 months, longer than any other Extreme Demon besides Sonic Wave. The level's success has led to another famous remake; Manix648 and several other creators have created a redecorated extended version named Bloodlust, which Quasar was initially supposed to verify, but the verification was given to knobbelboy because of the former's disappearance. knobbelboy verified it after a 97% and 98% fail and 121,296 attempts. Like Bloodbath, this level was also placed #1 on the Demonlist. It remained at that spot for over a year until Zodiac dethroned it. Gameplay
