We finally made the first enemies in our game! What should we name them? They deserve better than "little yellow ball things".

We finally made the first enemies in our game! What should we name them? They deserve better than "little yellow ball things" (yes, that's their current name or sometimes just "urchins"). The best suggestion will make it into the game!!

They are not actually aggressive, but they are very curious and will come close to the player to take a closer look. If they come too close the player will deal 100% damage aka death. If they are extra curious, they also follow the player around but not too far from their home.

If you want to see their behavior in motion check out this video on YT: Youtube.com

I would call them : Curious Urchin or Wandering Urchin. That way the player can still identify them.😊
