Description
I based this design on the firefly enemies from sonic CD initially but realised that the concept needed more depth as otherwise it wouldn't stand out at all. As a result of that I put a lot of emphasis on the mechanisms that would allow the phage fly to shoot energy and also tried making the laser not look like just a regular old laser. However, I also took the design one step further by making the phage fly have a segmented body like a bug but for better or for worse it kinda had the shape of a virus so I implemented that into its design and made the legs look like a virus's 'tail' wirh the ability to latch onto victims and infect them too.
