Smushroom Variants

General
Smushrooms are a weak mutant found throughout the Cracked Lands, the Hollow Forest, and the Great Underground. They are mushroom-like creatures covered with spores which burrow into the ground to lie in wait.

Ability
Smushrooms can perform a fast "compression" attack which blasts damage in a radius around the smushroom, knocking back other mutants and dealing one point of damage to the player.

Strategy
Smushrooms have 5 hit points and can be defeated fairly quickly. The player can dodge out of the radius of the blast, or dodge into it, negating the damage (the player will be still be knocked back regardless).
