: Another idea...
: some kinda mine that you thro and when the pred gets in the range of the mine, it ether lights up or shoots some kinda lazer at the pred but doesnt hurt him...
Trip flares are one of the powerups we are considering.
There are a few drawbacks to trip flares, or mine type devices. The biggest concern is how much of a performance hit
you take if there are say 10 or 20 of these things in a level all checking to see if
the predator is in range.
I need to investigate it.
