These are stereotypical monsters. One thing unique about them is that they are fragile yet immortal; it only takes one hit to “kill” them, but they resurrect about 5 seconds after. They are also fast when aggro’d but slow when hidden. They also give large amount of damage with a bite but you can avoid it by QTE, a quick-time event. The only way to kill them is to find the main source of the control, the Sike.
Sike is the head control of the patient z mobs. They are quite large but are low in variety and are hard to find. The type of location they tend to be in is dark, spacious places that give the idea of them being hidden even though they are large.
Since this monster was my sprite illustration and animation, I didn’t know the size I was most comfortable with. So, I blindly went to a large canvas size with 128×128 and start from there.
With this project, I had to make the sprite reduced in size – creating a smaller, more pixelated character. It was the only way to bring it to my current project and I am satisfied with the outcome.
One of the bosses
Originally, he was in this color because of an existing project that I’ve done in the past.
Now, he is recolor and reanimated in a new, improved appearance.
Tiflo was an experiment that could be potentially helped with broken arms or amputees. However, their limbs could not register it and it became a monster that lives in the ground. The yellow giant arms the thing has are shovels for them to dig very quickly. They do not have the ability to see, only hear and feel – because of that, they will rely on movement and sound and can attack you very fast. They also can go dig from one wall to jump to another at a medium pace to indicate that they are there and they are near you. The one way you can attack them is by looking at the ground’s bursting hole.
There is a possibility that I will update the image with more things inside such as a second city in the far distance and things in the sky.
