    Did you guys already talked with developers about implementation of this boss?

      I'm pretty sure that Vahn has mentioned this to Hopoo, but I don't know how much/what they discussed.

        Dunno if it WILL be put in but, the same thing basically happened with the imp overlord so, just crossing fingers that just the epicness of the sprite will ensure him being added. :D

          That, and the existing-ness of some animations.

                An extra claw slam is up, even if it wasn't on the original list; I was just confused at the clackity-clack shockwave description. Vahn cleared it, though, so I know what to do when I start working on it. But I like this one enough to share, it was mostly done by the time I got around to asking about it (which I should've done way earlier).

                      Thanks! It's been a very interesting learning experience.

                      Anyhow, death animation up, and we're done. POSSIBLY may do a bonus animation later, but I really need a break from this guy, haha.

                          Need a 'spawning' animation - for when it first appears.

                            I was considering it, and even had an idea in mind for how it'd look popping out of the sand/salt, but do bosses even have spawning animations? I know mobs do, but I recall most bosses just 'flashing' in. I know I didn't make a spawning animation for the Overlord and that went over just fine... so I'm not sure. 8S

                              I think I'm with leth on this one(surprise surprise!) I think this boss could benefit from a spawn animation akin to the crabs but, of course moar epic, though this is all whether or not Daimera is up to it. :D

                                Oh, I thought everything had a spawn animation. =P

                                  Does a magma worm really? Or a Wandering Vagrant?

                                  Side note: I'm pretty sure this planet's atmosphere is made of jellyfish and it's core of worms.

                                    Well TECHNICALLY Vagrants DO have a spawn animation, the screen flashes as they bust through the clouds to come hunt you down.

                                      Really hope Hopoo sees this and wants to add it. Even just for awesomeness and variety this would be great.
