Sounds: Base CacoDemon and BFG's sounds edited with Audacity by Xcava86X. Pain sound from Cracko Demon edited with Audacity by Xcava86X
Sprites: Base CacoDemon and BFG's sprites edited with Paint.Net by Xcava86X
Idea Base: Ispired to the Cracko Demon, the idea born because I wished to have a powered Cacodemon's version

This is a powered cacodemon: a bit faster and stronger. It has four ranged attacks: the first one are 5 balls spread in front of it, the second is a BFG shoot (with an unpowered spray damage), the third last is exactly like the Cracko Demon's third attack and the last one shoots an homing Cacodemon's ball.
Even thoguh the Bloody Demon has been designed for cooperative game modes, it can be used both as monster (Multiplayer) and boss (Singleplayer) fairly.

Currently under review

why the red bfg ball it doesn't hurt?

It's just a Cacodemon with darkened sprites. And you forgot to add Damage to the BFG ball attack.

Is currently under review...
I don't know if I should add damage to the ball, I won't make it excessively overpowered since the spray damage hurts already. // Fixed the damage, but now it can kill the player in one hit, I see this too much power; opinions?

I've to think to its HP, 2000 could be too much. // I set 1200, I'd like opinions about raising to 1400.

The fourth attack should be rewritten. // It's an homing projectile, I'm a beginner and I don't know how to use SMF_PRECISE properly.

The BFG sprites might be redimensioned.

Planning to add better sounds but I would need someone to mix them for me.

edit: excuse me guys, I didn't see that [unfinished] tag, I noticed just right now. Thank you so.

Also, the name "Blood Demon" is already taken, twice. Skulltag has one, and Realm667 already does, too. I'd suggest a different name.

The BFG as Caco attack? C'mon...

I can change the name even though that is the Blood Demon while this is the Bloody Demon


Why not? My idea was something to fight like the cracko (hit&hide), and the spray damage is what could force the player to hide most.

As I said already it needs to be balanced, and this is the worst part because of the BFGextra's characteristics. I might have agreed with you if you had said that the sprite isn't nice as the sounds.
Besides I see nothing wrong with a caco who does spray damage.

You haven't been around very long, then.

The BFG is a very nasty attack capable of doing 1000 damage pretty easily, let alone 100-200.

IMO it can keep the bfg attack but the damage should be reduced to 50 or something. And the spray damage should be also weaker but maybe the spray radius could be longer (dont know is it possible) to make it extra annoying. then you could recolor it orange and rename it "Annoying Orange". /end of dry jokes

This is what I wished.

By the way the damage is reduced actually, it is around 150/150 (with a blue armor) at most, but I'll reduce it anyway.


Quite another thing! Since now Zdoom supports modification to the BFGspray's damage I think that bfspray-based monsters are a good way to take advantage of this feature. This monster born because I needed an alternative to the Archies; they are much annoying if you can't hide but a monster with a spray weapon can both hit from far distance and be avoided by going behind its position (not possible with the archie which hits anyway).

Actually I'm handling a problem which is to give the monsters some other of the monster's utilize.
About this last question I raised suggestions are much more than welcome.
