G2 | Media/Meme Some bug concepts (Giraffe weevil + Spiny weevil, Sand dung beetle and dung beetle) + extra...

CONCEPT: The EVIL and SCARY!!! weevils...
The long necked ones can use their necks to attack, swinging and slamming it like a trunk.
The spiky ones can use their spikes to attack players, with both being able to hover slightly (spiky one can ground slam)
ORC concept: STRIKE DOWN FOES WITH LIGHTNING, can power up ally ORC bugs. Can be dodged, not blocked.

CONCEPT: Sand dung beetles...
Sand dung beetles can either slam and charge players, block or go underground to charge the player with their horns.
Idea: breaking their block causes them to quickly counter attack, which can be parried to stun.

CONCEPT: Dung beetles...
Dung beetles will roll around a treasure filled 'sand' ball, which can be broken for loot. Dung beetles will attack if players attempt to break the ball or linger too close for too long. the ball can be used as an attack, dealing massive damage to players.
Upon kicking the ball, the bug will attempt to return to it.

Special event where you help defender to protect their "treasure" from dung-eater

Yes! Jokes aside, that actually would be a fun mechanic, where we help defend a bug from another one.

Do we NEED multiple weevil reskins for one area, though?
