No name for it, suggestions welcome.

This would be bright, grassy green, with brambles growing out of it. It would be about the size of a Shankle.

Like Shankles, it would deal damage when a player touches it, and it doesn't follow the player directly.

It doesn't have a set movement path, can be affected by knockback, and can be damaged at any time, unlike Shankles. It also never reveals a weak point.

The camouflage part:

Occasionally, with an animation similar to a Jelly Cube spike attack, it'll generate grass and brambles which are the same color as the slime itself. These stay on the screen for about 15 seconds. It never creates more brambles and grass while there's already a group, and when there's a group, it doesn't leave. Its health bar is no longer visible and auto target won't work on it while its in its brambles, but it doesn't gain any affect like a Chromalisk's camouflage - It's just harder to see.

It also has a spike attack like a regular Jelly Cube, which brings up a bramble on your location that disappears after 1 second.

As tiers progress, it and its generated grass (not the brambles) become darker, and in tier 3, the brambles change to poison brambles (both on the slime and the generated ones - the appearance is also changed to have the green thorns), giving it the poison status on all of its attacks (including just touching Knights).

Slime Shrub?

Shrub Slime? So many possibilities. Garden Goop? Leafy Lichen? Guh, I had one, but I lost it.

Good idea.

Slimes deserve a little more credit. It would be nice to see some newer monsters implemented, regardless how simple the change is.

I like leafy lichen myself.

I like leafy lichen myself. But what if, almost like the rock slime (sorry I don't remember the name) it looked like a bush, like the green ones you see in wolver levels and such. Then when you got near it, it started to look more slime like. I guess this is a totally different concept, but hey.

...I think that's enough names for now.

Feedback on the slime please?

If you want you can still include more name ideas in your post.
