Anglerfish Lure & Prey Attraction (2D)

2D side-view anglerfish: drag or auto-bob the bioluminescent esca on its illicium, watch prey fish wander the darkness and swim into the light, and see the jaw lunge to strike.

This 2D companion draws the same predation model as the 3D anglerfish from the side: a bioluminescent esca dangling from the illicium pulls wandering prey fish out of the surrounding darkness once they drift inside its attraction radius, which widens as you raise the lure's brightness. Toggle manual control to drag the lure yourself within its reach, or leave it bobbing on autopilot, and watch the jaw snap shut whenever a fish gets close enough to strike.
