We actually see that as the prize for beating them. They are meant to generate huge tunnels beneath them and protect the hidden treasures, which you can only access if you beat them. Digging underneath them will be locked by the worm’s body so you cannot break through it.

Hiyas,
so the idea is that we would actually like to create tunnels from where they are spawned (we just need to prototype this… a lot!). What she means - is that the worm attacks roughly in the same place above ground. What we’d like is for you to be able to explore the tunnel the large worm creates afterwards to pick up some loot and resources.
In any case, we have quite a few ways on how we’d like to implement and animate this creature later on down the line. We also want to really push the scale of this guy to the limit!

These things are amazing!! And holy ■■■■ the big ones are… well, BIG! I can just imagine the bigger ones slinking across a vast desert or maybe even an arctic tundra. Do they actually displace block, and how fast do they displace them?
would like to see some like, above ground giant slugs that leave behind a sticky film that can trap you in it for a duration and make you easy spitter fodder.
they could even be non-violent with really really tough hide, so that only high cost tools can bother them.
edit easier… if you ever watch me play you can see how much i die 
Omg thanks for making my day.

This is exactly what I was thinking of!
Such incredible ideas and renderings, nicely done!
Holy moly, those are large.
I think I might build my next house floating 20 blocks high … over a lake

Am I the only one having Tremors flashbacks and looking to spend iron to barricade their homes with underground iron walls?

I see this is quite a few months old but is this still in the realm of possibility? This would just be really awesome, as asked above will they break blocks and maybe be passive? This would be awesome to follow one that’s burrowing and collect the materials it displaces to move. Like " AWE YEA! I GOT SOME RUBIES! OH NO, LAVA IS POURING IN"
