i drew this thing years ago but never gave it a way to explode. Now I have. However it appears that it was only immediately after drawing the original sprites for this creature that i standardized the [minimum] scale that i was drawing these at so i spent a needless fraction of the past week slowly awkwardly upscaling many of its frustratingly intricate sprites in an effort that approximately nobody will notice except in the form of extra seconds spent loading yet more oversized sprites in-game if it ever actually reaches a releasable stage of development which seems as likely as ever, which is not very.

a lot of its glop goes missing, something that used to bother me about similar animations in heretic and hexen, but i plan to have this also shoot out a number of glop objects separate from itself (including the eye balls, probably, although i like how the pink glop covers them) that will successfully land and remain on the ground. See there IS some good news this week.
