1017 B

A little fucking ghoulie!!!

Summoned when the grunk alert maxes out. Hunts down the player and grunkifies 'em.

"The angriest dog in the world, and he fucking hates power washing"

Concept: No head, tall spindly legs. Visually, I imagine it straining to pull itself out of the grunk.

Behavior

Behavior changes based on grunk alert

LEVEL 0 - Unaware

Inactive. No spooky until the player fucks up.

LEVEL 1 - Passive

The beast spawns somewhere the player can't see. It will avoid the player.

Can we orchestrate a spooky sighting? (meet spook?)

LEVEL 2 - Aggressive

Beast will pursue the player on sight.

LEVEL 3 - Predatory

Beast will pursue player automatically and relentlessly.

LEVEL 4 - Swarming

Beasts spawn at every spawn point, all pursuing the player.

LEVEL 5 - He's right behind me, isn't he?

Unavoidable death. Show cutscene with player grabbed by beast.

The player can reset the alert level to 2 by returning to the safe zone.
