Features

When a submerged player comes near a squid, they will be inflicted with blindness and nausea for 5 seconds. Ink particles will also fill the player's screen to make it even harder to see. Only if the player's head is submerged will the squid blind the player. This will continue until the player moves away from the squid or kills it.

Glow Squids have a similar ability, but their ink will illuminate players. When a submerged player comes near a glow squid, they will be inflicted with glowing and night vision for 5 seconds. Glow Ink particles will fill the player's screen upon this effect.
