Spore Puff

Spore Puffs, sometimes called Smoke Bombs, or potatoes are an object which can only be found in Farm Arrays, usually in underground or indoor rooms. They are pale grey balls with green patches and a smoking fuse. These spore-like objects can be used as a weapon against arthropods, and as a way to interact with and ride the Rain Deer in that region.

Function
Three Spore Puffs can be carried at once. When thrown, they will blanket the immediate area with a smoke-like spore cloud for a short time. A single spore cloud can kill any of the following:
 * Batflies
 * Bees from Beehives
 * Centipedes (any size)
 * Centiwings
 * Red Centipedes
 * Dropwigs
 * Eggbugs
 * Noodleflies
 * Spiders
 * Big Spiders
 * Spitter Spiders
 * Squidcadas

Spore Puffs also attract Rain Deer. Throwing a Spore Puff will cause nearby Rain Deer to head towards that point, emitting a shrill shrieking sound. When close, Rain Deer will descend, and lower their heads to eat any Spore Puffs which are on the ground, or have been dropped. This gives the player the opportunity to jump and ride on their antlers, which is useful for crossing the fields of Worm Grass in Farm Arrays. Throwing a Spore Puff in the opposite direction of travel while riding Rain Deer will cause them to change direction.

Spore Puffs can be used to pacify beehives, allowing them to be picked and carried without activating. They will also kill all active bees and neutralize hives that are part of the way through activation.

Trivia

 * Looks to the Moon notes that Spore Puffs are the flowering bodies of a fungus, which eventually burst to release their spores.
