Maggot bots

Maggot Bots are enemies in Toxic II. They are spawned from the Hive Robot.

Appearance
Maggot Bots appear as a very small robotic worm, with very small legs. They move like an inchworm, and have a single pink eye.

Game Information
Maggot Bots are only spawned from Hive Robots, and in great numbers too. They walk in the direction they were spawned which is either left or right. They have no attack, but will harm the player if contact is made. All Maggot Bots will eventually walk into a pool of Acid, where they become presumably destroyed. They are the smallest enemies in the Toxic Series, and due to them being spawned frequently, they form a line of Maggot Bots. It is possible to destroy several Maggot Bots by causing a bomb to explode on one, and due to there smallness the explosion will carry to the behind Maggot, and to the other behind Maggot; and so on, destroying many Maggot Bots in the process.

This chain of explosions is not capable of reaching the Hive Robot, which spawns the Maggot Bots. The Hive Robot is protected from being harmed by the Maggot Bots, which make a long line with no spaces for the player to place their feet, so if they attempt at trying to destroy the Hive Robot they will at least once be harmed. Maggot Bots can only be spawned by the Hive Robot, so if Maggot Bots are found a Hive Robot is nearby.
