Shrimp Thug[1] is an enemy in Pizza Tower.

Description

Shrimp Thug is a shrimp with arms that wears gloves. His whiskers are shaped in a way that makes it look like a mustache. He also has large eyebrows and usually visible teeth. He is usually seen with an angry expression. Elite Shrimp Thugs seem to be cooked shrimp and as such are a darker red.

Behavior

When spotting the player, Shrimp Thug will move towards the player in an attempt to punch them. The punch is capable of breaking through some blocks, such as Breakable Blocks. They can also jump over objects that are three tiles high or lower. Elite Shrimp Thugs throw knives from a short distance, but will still try to move towards the player and jump over objects to get in range like regular Shrimp Thugs.
