Pepperoni Goblin

Template:Basic Enemy Info (Better) Pepperoni Goblin is an enemy in Pizza Tower.

Description

Pepperoni Goblin is a giant red pepperoni slice with skinny arms and legs, often fisted hands, and soccer shoe-like spiked feet seen when he kicks. He has a dirty goblin face with a long nose, white toothy often grinning mouth, pointed ears, and black beady eyes.

Pepperoni Goblin is described as some sort of jock who practices his kicks with anything near him either to show off or make himself feel better.

A robotic variant of Pepperoni Goblin can be found in the form of Goblinbot.

Behaviour

"This darn goblin kicks anything near him. He will take any opportunity to practice kicks. Jump on him before attacking unless you want to become his next practice ball."
— The manual.

Pepperoni Goblin marches back and forth on the ground, turning at ledges and walls. When approached at Mach 2 or lower, he will attempt to kick the player, launching them in the direction he's facing in their Ball form. To avoid this, the player can either jump on his head to stun him or run at him at Mach 3 or higher, both disabling his kicks and allowing the player to hit him. Pepperoni Goblin will become defeated when hit at Mach 2 or higher (if he's stunned, that is), thrown after a grab, thrown another enemy, or hit by most transformations (including the player's Ball transformation).
