What I am suggesting is a team vs team race.
There would be one floor before the boss that would be based off the jelly farm level (with a variety of monsters that would be different for each boss).
This would be a timed race with points being given for % of Crowns and materials collected as well as % of monsters killed. (thus a team that rushes through would not necessarily score higher)(there are no minerals as their sizes are random)(CR and materials on your screen would be able to be picked up by another team member)
