New Creature the Wormhole Entity

January 25th, 2013 Long hours toiling over the raw code of my game has produced a new lifeform. The wormhole entity. Traveling the great distances between the stars is a slow and inefficient way to reach a destination. With some futuristic warp drive technology the space ships in my game will open a wormhole that folds space and connects two points in space together with a vortex that you fly through. This wormhole is, unfortunately for the player, the home of an energy worm which is nigh indestructible and relentlessly pursues the player to feed on his energy shield and burn up the ship. The beast has 5 energized tentacles, 3 trail behind propelling him on, while the remaining two tentacles stretch outward to capture your ship in its deadly embrace. The narrow tunnel of the wormhole is surrounded by raging energies which also cause damage, so not only do you need to evade this pack but you need to do it within a narrow strip of safe area. So the player is left with two options, dodge like crazy and run for it or shoot your way through an unkillable regenerating monster from beyond.
