Mind worms are unfinished enemies introduced in IVAN CVS. They come in two varieties: hatchlings and boils. Currently the two different varieties are identical.

Code exists for the mind worms being able to attack the player from range with "psi blasts" and if next to a player, attempt to burrow into their skull and lay eggs. Hatchlings would later spew forth from the player's head.
This code is not currently in use, however and the mind worms will simply mill about and make weak attempts at striking enemies.

Trivia

Mind worms are horrible creatures from Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, where they are known to strike fear into armies for their ability to paralyze opponents from a distance with psi blasts, then burrow into their skull and make them suffer from delusions and nightmares until the worm finishes consuming their brain or laying ravenous larvae.

Mind worm boils are meant to be colonies of smaller mind worms, rather than the singular ones currently implemented in IVAN CVS.
