All Implemented Interfaces:

Character, Serializable

public class CollectMonster
extends MonsterCharacter
implements Serializable

This is a very simple monster that implements the "yellow box" logic for the game of secret collect. It does little more than die as soon as a character collides with it. While on its own this isn't very useful, this could be the base for more interesting functionality.
