Flying fish are a mostly aquatic enemy found in the waters of Tide Pool and Abzu.
Behavior
Flying fish will fly up to one tile to level themselves with the player before shooting across at them similar to a Mosquito. They will do this both underwater and above ground if they have the opportunity.
When they hit a wall, they will continue swimming if still underwater, but will flop onto the ground and lie still if they are "beached" on the ground after charging.
The player can still be hurt by them if they flop down onto them after hitting a wall above water, however once being beached on the ground, they will become motionless, harmless, and able to be picked up until placed back in water.
Notes
Many Flying Fish are noticeably present on 4-2 in the lair of the Giant Humphead, as well as the water bellow Abzu.
