Soaker blocks are a mechanic in Return of the Mammalians.
Description
Soaker blocks are similar to sponges. Visually, they are a white block with an animated pattern of arrows. When attacked, the Soaker block will gradually produce a series of identically sized blocks along a specific path, completely painted in the ink color of whatever activated it. While at least one block from the Soaker block is extended, the main Soaker block will also be completely painted in the same ink color that it was activated too. The first block will always be in the direction indicated by the arrows.
The blocks will shrink back if the main block is attacked by ink that isn't the same color as the one that activated it, or if it was left idle for an extended period of time.
