Hiveling

Smallest of the Hive’s inhabitants. Carries out simple tasks.

Hunter’s notes

Weak, but hard-working and numerous. Their hairy little bodies are filled with a thick, sweet, golden liquid. Good to keep a few on you for long hunts.

The notes unlock after 30 kills.

Nail hits to kill

Its 20 HP over the nail's damage per hit at each upgrade, plain and with Fragile or Unbreakable Strength (×1.5, rounded the game's way).
