Enemies: There are a lot of varied enemies in Prey, ranging from ground-based creatures, to flying creatures, and even to some creatures that can only be killed when the player is Spirit Walking. We also tried to strike a balance between the types of attacks these creatures perform, as some creatures will be very tactical and run from cover to cover while looking for an opportunity to attack. Other creatures are melee based and will try to get close to the player to kill them with claws and teeth. Enemies are aware of objects in the game - they know to run to cover points, they know how the health system works (indeed they can run and get health before the player has the chance). The enemies know if the player is standing near something destructible and they will try to destroy it. Enemies also know if the player is on wall walk, and can turn the wall walk off causing the player to fall.
