Spawner, weakspots, mega portal
Player experience
A portal opens and the skulls pour out. The weakspots are how you close it. A mega portal is the same idea, bigger. Leave it up and the horde does not stop.
Product goal
A portal is the source, not another elite. Killing skulls spends the crowd. Breaking the portal stops the supply. The weakspots give you a target in the middle of the swarm. Which rounds open them lives on the level.
These are the non-swarm enemies and the boss that exist in the project now.
During a life the player can meet skullworms, quadrupeds, Orobas, scorpions, portals and their weakspots, mega portals, and the Skull Squid boss. Each has a definition and a pool factory in as-built assets. Portals bring more enemies. Weakspots are how a portal is broken. The boss runs projectile patterns from BossPatternDefinition assets.
An elite dies, a portal collapses, or the boss pattern ends. All of them unload with the gameplay scope. Kinds that are not in those assets are not spawned.
Nothing per creature. A quest step can credit a boss id or a family, and that quest lifetime is saved with the profile.
