Hello everyone,

Just wanted to share this enemy idle animation we made for our game "The Hive". We would need help figuring out name for this creature. The current "Chalatoi Spearman" is a bit boring

You can also suggest special boss names.

Thank you all!

"Overbite"

or

"Underbite"

Looks really good and cool.

But I must say the screenshot does remind me of my dog when pooping.

Try to think in the context. People who exist in this world know this creature how? Maybe it has an 'official' name from its own origin place (the summoner, or its creator, or its mom and dad whatever) and a name the scared villagers gave it etc. You know, just to give a direction on how to name instead of just 'words that sound cool'.

I can imagine a summoning book where this is listed as "Chalatoi VI - spear included".

Maybe the solders named it from always seeing it behind the front line of skellies. Army types like to name things in a way that makes them less scary. So these are the skinny stick throwers.

Parents gave it a more scary name to get their kids to come home early, or else the 'nocturnal impaler' will get them.

To be honest "Chalatoi Spearman" seems fine to me. It's descriptive and doesn't strike me as boring.
