Shell monsters are enemies in the game Square Meal.

Appearance[]

Shell monsters have a purple shell with a grey spike on top of it. Its purple shell covers the entire body of the monster. The monster has black legs and yellow eyes.

Game information[]

Shell monsters are one of the most difficult enemies to kill aside from the fish men. If a shell monster is walking and stops, anything thrown at it will act as if thrown at a wall. The monsters can only be stunned if they are hit while walking. Walking into a shell monster, or vice-versa, will kill the player.

Glitches[]

One glitch is that shell monsters may sometimes walk through walls.

There is another glitch that happens to this monster. If a shell monster is facing the player, and it is hiding in its shell and the player shoots a block, the monster will be stunned for a few seconds, then it will move a little bit and will continue being stunned.

Trivia[]
