Zako Alien

Blessed with the ability to partially ignore gravity, but cursed with a dense over-sized cranium, these floating alien crustaceans tumble clumsily forward in an endless roly-poly. The dizziness of such an existence infuriates them, but unfortunately they're more angry with Contra Force than the extra-terrestrial bio-engineers that created them. Attempts to unionise Bundles against their overlords have thus far been a non-starter.

Many Red Falcon traitors mistakenly believe that mutations brought about through willing exposure to the Alien Cell will lead to enhanced might and enlightenment. Sadly, most of these unfortunate volunteers mutate into Zako Aliens, drooling animalistic simpletons bound by a ravenous gestalt consciousness.

What could possibly be done, evil science experts wondered, to make the average fly even more irritating? Simplicity itself! Increase its size considerably, bolt on some sharp clawed limbs with opposable digits, and give it a horrible little face. A potent soldier and a form of psychological warfare, all in one.
