Enemies (StH2Retro)
From Sonic - Wiki on Neoseeker
The enemies you will face off against in the game are as follows:
Contents |
[edit] Buzzer
Exactly the same as the Buzz Bomber enemy from Sonic 1, remember him? Well, a Buzzer flies above Sonic and makes a slight pause before firing a small bullet diagonally down at him before flying off. Try to attack while the Buzzer pauses to take them out.
[edit] Chop-Chop
A blue mechanical fish found only underwater that swim faster when you approach. They don't have any fighting methods so it's best to simply jump on their heads to take them out.
[edit] Coconut
Found in the trees, these little monkeys launch coconuts (hence where they get their name from) at Sonic when he gets nearby, so when you jump towards them, they'll fire at you! Try passing under them so when they launch a coconut, they have to pause before reloading and then you can take them out.
[edit] Crawlton
This is a long blue caterpillar-like creature that springs out of platforms at you when you get close. You can just about still see them inside the platform if you keep an eye out. The only way of destroying them is by hitting the head.
[edit] Grabber
These spider-like enemies hang onto ceilings and when Sonic stands directly underneath them they'll drop down, pick him up and blow up causing damage to him. It is best to attack them from the side rather from down below because you may risk being captured by them.
[edit] Grounder
These can be found generally all over the level, sometimes hiding in tree trunks and patrolling platforms, but they can also come out of walls when you least expect it, so be alert! They only move forwards and backwards and have no attacks, so a simple spin attack does the job.
[edit] Masher
Also like the Chopper enemies seen in Sonic 1, when you pass over a bridge, Mashers tend to jump up and try to bite you. You can simply take them out with a simple spin attack as they don't have any damaging attacks to be aware of.
[edit] Rexon
This is a pink dinosaur-like creature that appears in the lava. They pop up and shoot fireballs from their heads. Once you destroy their heads, you can stand on their pink shells in the lava.
[edit] Seadra
These are flying seahorse that move swiftly and quickly fire quick black bullets at you. They are a pain to get around to try to hit them with precision.
[edit] Spiker
This little red insect has a large spike on its head. Sometimes they are found walking on the ground and fire the spike upwards when you jump over them, or on the ceiling and fire the spike when you pass under them. Once they lose the spike, though, they're almost harmless. Just spin attack to finish the job off.
[edit] Spiny
These little creatures have spikes on their heads. They move slowly, but can suddenly shoot a bomb out of their spikes, so you must still be aware when you approach one.
[edit] Whisp
Found in groups of three, these bugs fly around Sonic and try to swoop down on him. Simply just use the spin attack jump to destroy them, as they aren't really too troublesome.
