Spore Generator

Spore Generators are a slow moving version of the Virus. Their primarily is to lay eggs. To lay these eggs they have to come close to the ground, if the eggs are located on top of a [[Soul] a new copy of the virus is born.

Strengths and Weaknesses

 * The eggs hatch out into Virii, the intention is to repopulate an area if the player doesn't scoop up the souls quick enough.
 * It lays eggs only near the player.
 * Grenades can only hit if one is close to the ground.
 * Once the player has rockets these are no problem to deal with.
 * Since the Spore Generator cannot attack, it has thicker defence and will take several hits to get rid of.
 * As all this suggests, the Spore Generation is really easy to beat, not even its ability to repopulate an area is a threat, as the eggs are destroyed with lasers and even Darwainians can take them out.

Trivia

 * In natural, a spore is a sexual or asexual means of reproduction. It can generate into a sporeling without the need to absorb DNA for another. They are normally produced by fungi and organism of a similar nature.  This is why the Spore Generator has a rough "mushroom" shape as a mushroom is a type of fungus.
 * A number are also capable of fungal diseases such as athletes foot, which is where the link to the Viral infect comes from.
