In the early stages of Scars Above, you will need to find a way to cross the Blood Eel pit. Along the way, in a clearing, you will come across Alpha, who is a rather large and imposing rock gorilla. You'll need to defeat him before he pummels you into the ground.

Most enemies in Scars Above, have color codes weak spots, the Alpha boss is no different and has orange color coded weak spots. This boss's weakness is fire, you will have to use your flame gun against him to inflict some serious damage.

The Alpha boss will attack you in two ways, either he will charge at you from the opposite side of the area or he'll slowly walk up to you and swing his arms at you. Alpha will also from time to time, lift both his arms and slam them down three times, causing the ground to open in front of him.

When Alpha is about to attack,you must open fire on his chest area. His slow swinging arms will give you a further opportunity to fire at this exposed chest area. Towards the end of the game, Alpha will begin to cover his chest area with one arm. 

You'll need to remain patient and wait for his left swinging arm to create an opening for you to fire. The Alpha will heal himself throughout the fight, just be sure to watch out for his quick charging attacks and you'll be able to defeat him.
