Purple Snake

Appearance
The Purple Snake is an elite version of the Snake. It occurs on level 4, and can be seen as early as room five.

Behavior
The Purple Snake is like the Snake, except you need to hit its segments three times in order to destroy them.

Strategy
Because each segment has its own hit box, try to use area damage to that it hits every part of the snake and saves time. Also don't get to close because hitting it can cause it do become longer and it might hit you as an effect.
