BULLWORM is one of the difficult mid/late-game mini-bosses of [REDACTED] that can be found on the Wildest West. To fight BULLWORM, you have to enter or to get very close to the Wild West as it is guarding that place. Upon defeating BULLWORM, you'll get to freely access Wildest West which is a dangerous place too as it is full of fast-moving enemies and having lesser safe areas. You can summon BULLWORM again by repairing it manually and also reactivating it inside the laboratory. BULLWORM also drops no loot.

BULLWORM is a mechanical boss mady by [REDACTED] and is built to guard the secret laboratory of [REDACTED]. Few have tried exploring beyond, but none succeded. Animals of the Wildest West had learned about this BULLWORM and its behavior; developing fear to leave the area as upon going out, they'll never able to get back in. Villages around Wildest West had noticed this too, but it is a bit of a good news for them as no more wild animals would ravage their homes. As good as it sounds, they let [REDACTED] be.

BULLWORM has four different attacks; Stampede, Horizontal Charge, Vertical Charge, and Chase.

Stampede is a series of hops that creates sandstone stalagmites for each where BULLWORM stomps. To dodge this is to stay on the ground as BULLWORM has trajectory to you per stomp, giving you time to dodge when on the ground, unlike flying which would hit you more earlier. Also; the stalagmites can be used as an advandage for its other attacks.

Horizontal charge is where BULLWORM dashes at you on a straight line. This attack may sounds easy to dodge, but it gives you a knocked-down debuff if got hit. BULLWORM takes damage when it hit its stalagmite.

Vertical dodge is one of the conditional attack where it only happens if the player is on air. Vertical attack starts with BULLWORM burrying to the ground, then the ground where the player from above starts crumbling, and then BULLWORM charges in the air, to the player. BULLWORM completely follows the player when the player is too high from the ground. This gives the player a warning punishment not to use vertical mobility to dodge BULLWORM's attacks.

Chase is where BULLWORM follows you. It starts from normal speed, increasing to a very fast speed. When BULLWORM gets close to you, it huffs and makes a small horizontal charge. This mostly puts the player in danger with BULLWORM and the stalagmites to be careful no to run onto. Also; the small charges hurts BULLWORM when it hits a stalagmite.

BULLWORM has very high defense, very high damage, and very fast mobility, also gives player punishment when elevated from the ground. BULLWORM also has a mechanic to take damage when dashing through a wall. As difficult as it sounds, fast ground mobility, alertness, and spatial awareness is the way to beat BULLWORM easily.

"Yes. This is all just self-made."
