Fruit Shoot

The Fruit Shoot is a community-created cosmetic item for the Sniper. It is a large, team-colored (green for BLU team) apple, pierced by a Huntsman arrow, perched precariously on the Sniper's head.

This item has three styles, named "Deadly", "Dangerous", and "Tasty". The "Dangerous" style replaces the arrow with a worm tunneling through the core, while the "Tasty" style replaces the arrow with a large and noticeable bite mark on the side of the apple.

The Fruit Shoot was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

Bugs

• If a player dies while using the "Dangerous" or "Tasty" styles, the apple will rotate on the ground in a weird manner. This is due to the physics model being incorrectly placed for both of these styles.

Trivia

• This item is a reference to the legend of William Tell, in which Tell used an apple placed upon his son's head as an archery target to prove his marksmanship ability.
• The "Dangerous" style shows a stereotypical earthworm munching its way through the apple. This is a common misconception: "worms" found in apples are the larvae of the Codling moth.
