These Voltlings develop in jelly-like cells before hatching. They activate their bioelectricity at regular intervals.

Compendium entry, Shovel Knight Dig

Tadvolting are minor enemies in Shovel Knight Dig. They are Tadvolt offspring sleeping in rows and columns of cell-like eggs. They only appear in the Secret Fountain in specific stage layouts.

Behavior and Tactics[]

Tadvoltings never move from their eggs, seemingly sleeping. Every few seconds, they wake up and discharge electricity through the membrane of their egg and neighboring ones marked by a pulsating dot. Anything touching the egg' hard exterior gets shocked and dealt 2 damage point. Shovel Knight can also be zapped if he is inside one of the affected eggs.

Tadvoltings can be dislodged simply by crawling inside their egg.

Trivia[]

  • Tadvoltings are simply named "tadpole" in the game's files.
