Now. I have no idea if this has been suggested before because i have no idea what to search.

The enemy will be from the slime family and look like a orange puddle with a single, red core. It will function kind of like lichen's, But more advanced.

They travel in packs and when they form together they make a bigger puddle. Now for the advanced bit: Depending on the number of puddles it has collected, it can turn into 3 different forms

(All forms are still orange)

5 puddles-Crawler: The crawler is a fast moving slime with several legs on it. it speeds towards players but has weak attacks.

7 puddles-Sniper: The sniper is a static turret which fires fast shoots (about Antigua speed) but is inaccurate (doesn't always fire directly at players) You'll be able to get the rough angle by a spike appearing on the sniper where it will shoot from.

10 puddles- Goliath The Goliath is a large humanoid like slime but a puddle for legs. it has mace like arms which it uses to inflict massive piercing damage. its slow. For its attack it dose a lumber like smash but dose two of them one after the other.

Now here's another catch. instead of directly damaging its forms. when you attack them a puddle disconnects from the form. So you have to attack the puddle after it falls off to kill it.

I also think this actually has the potential to be a boss (a giant Goliath with around 100 puddles in it). wich could make a fun and challenging fight.

Please tell me what you think.
