Idea Base: This was a request after I submitted the regular shark.

Description:
I had one simple request. And that was to have sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads! This shark behaves like the other shark , in that it has a nasty bite and stays underwater in maps with height transfers and 3D floors. However, it also packs a laser beam that deals a big blow but can be easily dodged.

It certainly works as advertised, though I find the beam to be a bit less easy to dodge than implied (though this is mostly if you are also underwater and dangerously close). I wish the rail effect was customized a bit more to look less like a rail and more like a laser (simply removing the ring may be enough for that); a new firing sound would be nice too (maybe the Assault Trooper's pistol sound? Or would that be too wimpy?). Still, even if the beam effect doesn't see any modification, I think this guy has a lock for approval. It's a touch on the eccentric side, but it's also very cool and very unique.

Warning: Spoiler!


EDIT: I'm going to go ahead and approve it as-is. I don't feel like the current rail effect should hold it back.
