🔥 Hot Head

The Hot Head is a fiery monster found in the Volcano Dungeon on Ginger Island. These enemies resemble glowing, flaming orbs and pose a threat with their explosive death mechanic. When defeated, a Hot Head will explode in a fiery blast, damaging anything nearby — including the player.

Their explosive nature makes them dangerous to fight in close quarters. They are best handled at range or with careful timing to avoid taking heavy damage.
