20 Minutes Till Dawn Wiki

This is a list of enemies that can be encountered in 20 Minutes Till Dawn.

How enemies are spawned[]

Enemies will spawn in "sessions". Each "session" is determined by the following information:

  • Enemy: The enemy spawned in the session.
  • Start: The time frame when the session starts.
  • End: The time frame when the session ends.
  • HP: Hit points of the enemy spawned in the session.
  • Max: Max number of enemies from the session that can exist at once in the game. Is not affected by the modifier of Darkness 1+.
  • SpawnCD: Number of seconds the game waits before trying to spawn more enemies from the session (up to the Max). Affected by Darkness 1+
  • Num p/spawn: Number of enemies from the session that are spawned at once, after every SpawnCD seconds, until they reach their Max number

For each currently active "spawn session", the game checks every SpawnCD seconds to see if the number of alive enemies is greater than or equal to Max. If not, the game spawns Num p/spawn enemies (multiplied by the darkness modifier if applicable, rounded down to an integer).
