📋 About This Mod
Replaces the artifact worm dig spot sprite and animation with that of an item ball from Pokemon.
Using the config.json you can choose between an item ball sprite from generations 1-5.
The generation 1 and 2 sprites bob/bounce while the generation 3, 4, and 5 sprites jiggle/roll back and forth.
Requires Content Patcher to use, just download this and drop it in your folder with your other CP mods.
I hope you enjoy my second ever posted mod :)
