The Cannonball Jellyfish is a Pre-Hardmode enemy that spawns in the first layer of the Abyss. It bobs up and down while underwater and emits a medium amount of turquoise light. When killed, it instead emits red light and halts for one second, then launches towards the player, exploding upon impact.

Trivia

  • The BestiaryBestiary entry for the Cannonball Jellyfish: "These jellyfishes help keep the Abyss clean from the sulphuric poisoning. Unlike most hard-skinned creatures in the Sulphurous Sea, they instead use their stingers to drain the acid near them to later use it for self-defense."
  • Cannonball jellyfish are a real species of jellyfish that get their name due to their similarities to cannonballs in shape and size.
  • The Cannonball Jellyfish's behavior is inspired by Oomas from the game Hollow Knight.
