Never found that weird that some critters become hostile when the blood moon rise but other aren't?

Well i thought of some corrupted versions of most surface critters, tell me what do you think of them. I've also added crimson versions of them. (if you already saw the crimson bunny spoiler)

Corrupt/Crimson Squirrel
AI : Corrupted Bunny
Damage : 35
Life : 50
Defense : 2
Like a corrupted bunny, but with more damage and less defense.

Corrupt/Crimson Bird
AI :
Bat
Damage : 25
Life : 20
Defense : 2
I think the bat ai suits perfecly an agressive bird.

Corrupt/Crimson Frog
AI :
Derpling
Damage : 25
Life : 65
Defense : 4
Attacks like the Derpling, expect with smallers jumps and no knockback resistance.

Corrupt/Crimson Duck
AI :
Mushi Ladybug
Damage : 20
Life : 60
Defense : 4
Evil ducks are fast and can perform small flights to get to you.

Corrupt/Crimson Scorpion
AI :
Fighter
Damage : 15
Life : 120
Defense : 8
Basic Fighter AI. Can inflict the poison debuff.

Corenality suggested some cool drops for the evil critters! (along with some sprites she made)

There is an uncommon chance for evil critters to spawn naturally during the blood moon and in their respective biomes.

This was my first sugestion (and my first post on the new forums BTW), i hope you enjoyed reading it.
Feedback is appreciated, have a good day. :)

Great idea, a simple yet nice addition for the Blood Moon. The sprites are alright, and you put effort into adding detail. For a first suggestion, this is good.

Originality: 3.5/5. Execution 4/5. Elaboration: 3/5. Ideas: 3.5/5. Artwork: 3/5. Formatting: 4/5.
 
This does not add a lot to the game, but that's what makes it good, there is some simple stuff that should be added and stuff like this is it
 
Always thought it was unfortunate that only fish and bunnies went bad. I like it; seems like a simple and easily implemented suggestion.
 
This is good, nothing at all seems to be over extreme and I like it. Also that now this means things are more deadlier.
 
Awesome suggestion and I like it. Would love to see more creatures like that in the Corruption or Crimson areas.
 
Seems like a nice and simple idea. Support.

And just for the heck of it, why not have the corrupt versions drop vanity items like how corrupt bunnies drop bunny hoods?

Those vanity items are really cool. Adding them to the first post ASAP! :)

Thanks a lot for theses!

(BTW did you have some ideas for the corrupt frog drops? Maybe they could drop the Frog Leg accessory you can get by fishing...)

This is a cool idea but it would take a decent amount of time to implement to the game. Each critter would need to be given AI to attack the player. I am not sure the end result is worth the time it would take to be perfectly honest. :S
