What are Shiny Scorpions in My Time at Sandrock?

Don't worry, they don't sting.

As one of the new builders arriving in town, you will have your hands full in My Time at Sandrock. Your goal is to rebuild the town's reputation while completing requests from the townsfolk. As you do this, you may spot a scorpion that appears out of nowhere—these are Shiny Scorpions. Shiny Scorpions are random drops you can find when breaking down junk piles or scrap piles. They will flee from you when they spawn, and they are not aggressive. After a few seconds, they will disappear into the sand.
