Featured in Broforce

The Humongocrawler is the first alien boss encountered in Broforce. It is an enormous subterranean crawler with a massive gaping maw.

Behavior[]

  • Roars at the player, pushing players back and and eroding the terrain above. Rocks proved to be hazardous due to the terrain collapse and they can't be eroded.
  • Slowly fires globs of acid in a similar fashion to the Acid Crawler.
    • The attack has significant horizontal detection range, but not vertically.
    • Can damage itself with this attack.
  • When sufficient damage is dealt to its face, it retreats for some distance.

Upon the destruction of its mouth, the boss stops moving and its insides can be accessed. Several Facehuggers may be present inside. The crawler's interior contain a heart that needs to be destroyed to defeat it. The heart does nothing.

Trivia[]

  • The Humongocrawler may be based on the Alien Queen from the Alien film series. It is also referred to as a female by the game's developers.
    • Similarly to how Ellen Ripley fights the Queen, it is also defeated by destroying its internal organs.
  • The crawler might also be a reference to the final level of the original Contra video game - Entering a level section by destroying a giant face before heading for the heart at the end.
  • Players can exploit the Humongocrawler's acid attack by standing underground and beneath its face; the inner mouth will sense the player presence from underground and will attempt to shoot at them, which causes itself to take damage from the acid attacks. However, this method is generally slow and not recommended.
  • Despite the in-game intro displays a Facehugger coming out, none are seen until the destruction of it's mouth, nor are they leaping out when fighting against it.
    • Also, the Facehuggers are shown to be purple in the intro, contrary to their current Brown-Green color. Even if it were to be a Xenomorph its size would be inaccurate.
  • During the scroll down the wall of booty, it's severed inner mouth is seen.
  • It's possible to glitch inside its body by alien tunnels or getting inside its mouth as soon as it stops roaring. This makes the fight a lot easier and will usually not spawn extra facehuggers.
