Danificritter is an enemy appearing in Pikmin 2... Again?. They are only seen in the Timed Mode and in the Explore Time cave from the Story Mode. They are red spider-like lifeforms made out of voxels, like something out of an old video game. They have two long legs ending on a flat foot, like of most arachorbs, their angry-looking eyes are transparent, and they have two insectoid mandibles. Overall, by sheer coincidence, they heavily resemble the crab aliens from Space Invaders. Another voxel creature is the Pixel Pikmin.
The Danificritter will appear sometime after entering the sublevel, and a 2-dimensional icon of the Danificritter appearing next to the timer in the heads-up display indicates its presence. The main problem a Danificritter presents is that it passively causes the timer to run down faster, during which the timer's numbers are colored red. It wanders around its territory, but once Pikmin and leaders come close, the Danificritter will jump at them to eat Pikmin and bite leaders. However, if it misses, its mandibles will get stuck into the ground, temporarily immobilizing it and allowing for easy attack. Once defeated, the Danificritter will explode into pixels that then disappear.
The Danificritter icon animation is strongly inspired by the crab aliens. If only one Danificritter is alive when two or more are in the area, the Danificritter icon next to the timer will produce pixelated sweat particles. When all Danificritters are defeated, the icon's eyes will bulge before it disappears overall, after which the timer will quickly slow to its normal pace.
