Splodey

Will Wright:''Oh, yeah. He's a bad guy. Maybe he can eat one of those cute little hopping guys, but not me. My guy's too fast.''

Appearance
The Splodey, also called a Tick, looked like, well, a tick. It had long legs, a large carnivorous mouth, and two scythes on its arm-like appendages. It appeared in the beta version of Spore.

Biology
The Splodey appeared shortly after the Willosaur appeared on land and killed and was eating a Tamaranian hopper. It came screaming and shrieking out of the Tamaranian forest. It ran after the Willosaur, but did not succeed.  Do you like the Splodey? Heck yes! Kind of... Heck no! I don't know!
