Snake

Snakes are enemies that appear in Burning Temple. They are attached to the ground and do not move. However, they have a relatively large health pool, and are often best dealt with at a distance.

Snakes resemble and behave identically to Snomps from 20XX.

Behavior
Snakes always turn to face the player, regardless of proximity. Once the player comes close enough or upon taking damage, Snakes will spit 3 fireballs towards the player in a fanned-out triple shot similar to the Forkalator. They will continue to spit fire periodically until the player either kills them or leaves their line of sight.

Beta Snakes sport are blue as their main colors instead of green. They spit 5 fireballs instead of 3, and each fireball deals 2 damage to the player instead of 1. Upon death, Beta Snakes will violently explode, launching 4 mortar-like fireballs in all directions.

Gamma Snakes sport a white and blue color palette, horns, and visible pupils. They will shoot two waves of fire, one with 5 projectiles and another with 4. Other than that, they have similar behavior to Beta Snakes.
