Hornfel

Hornfel is one of the bosses that can appear in the Mines. He appears with his own specially designed boss rooms, where the walls are covered in boss doors, with minecart tracks connecting them.

Behavior
Hornfel rides around in a minecart for the majority of the fight going in and out boss doors. He will do one of the following actions as he enters the room: Some other occurrences can happen as well: When Hornfel's health is low enough (Around 50 or so), his minecart will be destroyed, and he will try to escape through one of the many doors. He can still be damaged and even killed while he runs, but even if he escapes, the fight ends and Isaac wins the battle.
 * Throws one to two bombs at Isaac.
 * These bombs are usually regular, but they can also be special bombs, such as Hot Bombs, Sad Bombs and Stone Bombs. He can throw any combination of these at Isaac.
 * Pulls out three black mines with red blinking parts and throws them around the arena, that will fire brimstone beams in the cardinal directions after a delay.
 * Goes faster and faster on a single track while throwing regular bombs. Afterward, he gets sick and vomits a fireball that will release fire in the cardinal directions.
 * A fake Hornfel can appear instead of Hornfel, and hitting this dummy will spawn several troll bombs.
 * These bombs detonate faster than regular troll bombs.
 * Several enemies can be seen riding on the Minecarts during the fight that can attack Isaac, such as Blasters, Quakeys, Gurgles and Bonies.
 * Objects such as fires, barrels and nitro barrels will sometimes pass through in a minecart.
 * Upon Hornfel's entry, several Fly Bombs have a chance to spawn.
