Gloombats are neutral entities that appear in The Mines. They won't directly attack the player unless they are provoked. 
==Appearance==
Gloombats are a mix between a bat and a moth. They can have either a green, yellow, purple, red, pink, white, blue and orange body, 6 small legs, and 2 big, body color-dependent glowing eyes; a mouth with sharp teeth and 2 fangs on the edges, a moth-like body with 2 antennae with multiple smaller antennae coming out like a leaf of some sort and 4 wings.
==Behavior==
When a door is opened in The Mines, there is a chance for Gloombats to spawn in the room. They are usually in a group of five or more and fly around The Mines. They hate lights, and will viciously swarm around them to try and disable or break them as soon as possible. As such, most rooms that they spawn in will be dark. If any player uses any type of light source (other than glowsticks and laser pointers) near them, they will attack the player until the light source is gone or the user dies. There are a few ways to get rid of the Gloombats, such as waiting for a door to be illuminated by Guiding Light, since the blue light it emits usually makes them go away, or try to make them backtrack into a room with Figure for it to eat them. 
Notes 
*Gloombats can spawn as early as door 105.
*If the door to the next room emits odd roaring sounds, it means that the Gloombats will spawn upon opening the door.
*Gloombats will ignore any players who are not using an active source of light.
**As long as Flashlights, Lighters or any sources equipped by the Player is off, they will not be attacked by Gloombats.
***Contrary to popular belief, an active Straplight is not needed to use a Crucifix on them, as it is possible to hold a light source and quickly switch to the Crucifix once they are coming to deal damage.
**Glowsticks can be used as a temporary light source; as the Gloombats will only attack the Glowstick instead of the Player.
*Gloombats will not attack players just for being near or within light sources.
*Even when hiding, Gloombats can still attack you. This only happens if you have an active Straplight. This may be due to their small size.
*Gloombats can be discerned by their loud, metallic-like buzzing.
*Gloombats might shatter the lights before they flicker as a warning to Rush's arrival.
*Gloombats will follow the players into the next room(s) as long as they sense any source of light. Players can use their light sources when they can no longer hear the Gloombats' buzzing.
*During the 2024 Trick Or Treat Event, Gloombats can be summoned in The Hotel by eating the "Infested" candy.
*If Gloombats spawn in The Hotel, they will not be able to break any light sources generated by a room (e.g, a fire, room lights).

Gloombat Eggs=
Gloombat Eggs are a hazard in The Mines.
==Appearance==
Gloombat Eggs have a slimy appearance; they appear as various assortments of eggs embedded into the ground.
==Behavior==
If a large egg is stepped on, a Gloombat will hatch and bite the player, causing them to lose 5 health. The hatched Gloombat still behaves as a normal Gloombat.
== Trivia ==
*Gloombat eggs are translucent, and an under-development Gloombat can be seen inside the larger hazardous ones.
*Gloombat eggs cannot be broken by pointing light sources or throwing Glowsticks them.
* The hatched Gloombat's color is the same color of its egg.
*When standing near the eggs a heartbeat can be heard.

== Modifiers ==
==Trivia== 
*Gloombats were first revealed in the Floor 2 teaser.
*Gloombats had their model leaked in the past.
*If a player has faulty internet and enters a room with Gloombats, they can be seen in a cluster in the center of the room with no animation for a second.
*The Gloombats were formerly referred to as Batmoths due to their filename originally being leaked as such, as well as their appearance being like a bat and a moth combined.
*The Gloombats can attack in combination other entities, such as Eyes, Screech and Rush.
*The Gloombats are able to appear in flooded rooms, and are able to dive underwater.
*Gloombats are one of the entities which alter players body upon death, with it filling their corpse with eggs. Others being Seek, Figure and Eyes.
*Their Crucifix animation is unique compared other entities; when activated, the Crucifix creates several chains that reach out and attach to each Gloombat, and then pull them all into an orb before starting the usual banishment animation.
**This also implies that the Gloombats are extremely aggressive, so they have to be contained with double the safety. This is because there are too many Gloombats to restrain via normal means, so they must all be together.
*The text for the achievement "I Don't Believe My Eyes" is a reference to the line "You would not believe your eyes, if ten million fireflies..." from the Owl City song "Fireflies", the description of the same achievement "Dude, I swear there were like... ten million of them!" could also be a reference to this.
**Additionally, the text for the "Bug Bomb" achievement is likely a reference to the saying "Pop Goes the Weasel".
*The Gloombats, like Grumbles, are the only entities capable of reproducing; in their case, through eggs.
*The Gloombats are passive towards players emitting no source of light from an item, as seen that they can touch the player without causing any type of harm.
*The Gloombats seem to sound more like flies, rather than bats or moths.
*When the "Infested" candy spawns Gloombats a distant roar is heard, indicating that it may belong to them.
*Deploying a Glowstick on the ground will make the Gloombats physically push it and attempt to destroy it which results in being turned off.
*Figure will eat any Gloombats on contact.
**It's assumed that Figure does this because the Gloombats will try to attack it due to the light emitted by its blisters and its mouth.
*Gloombats can have different eye colors, but the most common seems to be green.
**Gloombat eggs, when stepped on, hatch a Gloombat with eyes that are the same color as the egg.
**The colors of the eyes can be green, orange, blue, pink, red, yellow, white and purple. Green is the most common out of all of them.
*One of El Goblino's dialogue states that he sometimes tries to catch Gloombats to eat, but often fails due to his small size, comparing the task to hunting a bear. 
**Another dialogue states that the Gloombats are very tasty to eat.
