Beetle

Beetles are enemies appearing in Wacky Pack, a mod for Doom II.

Appearance
A small purple beetle with orange eyes and four legs. It has wings on its back, which pop out while it is flying, and pincers on top of its head as well as a mouthpart on the bottom.

Behavior
Beetles crawl around, switching between walking and flying at random intervals. They can fire a projectile at the player which does low damage and travels at medium speed. This projectile is shared by the Face.

Deaths
# 1: The beetles eyes, chest, and two of its legs explode into blood. The Beetle falls onto its chest, laying partially on its side.

# 2: The beetles head ruptures, which proceeds to destroy nearly the entire body of the beetle. Nothing is left except green goop and one visible eye.

Obituaries
Obituary (Projectile) : (PLAYER) was killed by a Beetle.

Trivia
-Beetles are currently the only enemy that can switch between walking and flying.

-Beetles can be very annoying, as their small size makes them harder to hit. In addition to that, Beetles are fond of dropping out of the sky once they enter their pain state, which can make followup shots frustrating to connect.

-Beetles can sometimes get stuck on small ledges because they land there and enter their walking state. This doesn't seem to happen very often, however, and usually happens when a Beetle entering its pain state is above a small ledge.
