: couldent you make the rats by replacing the sprites of those little flying
: squids you find in some of the MI dream levels with those of rats?
The problem is the rats are just a single side view, so you couldn't actually see them running around properly like the mothrids in Infinity.
However, what you COULD do is have some monster who has no (or completely transparent) idle, movement, or death sprites, who is 0 units in diameter and so cannot be shot or killed or even run into, and who has only a melee attack, the sequence for which is the rats-across-your-face animation from PiD.
That way, as far as the player can tell they're wandering around the level and OH SHIT RATS WTF where did they go?
