Armadiloid

Armadilloid is an enemy that appears in Sonic Mania. It is a mass-produced, armadillo-based Badnik model created by Dr. Eggman.

Appearance
Armadilloids are based on armadillos while taking the general concept used for the Turtloids: a larger Armadilloid serves as the vessel that flies a tinier, Armadilloid standing on top of it. They are mainly colored burgundy, with gray skin and yellow chest plating. They have cartoonish eyes, with black pupils.

Overview
Armadilloids exclusively appear in Mirage Saloon Zone Act 1, but only during the Sonic and Tails section of the Act. They simply glide around in the sky, firing at Sonic and Tails when at point-blank range. A Spin Attack aimed towards the tinier Armadilloid will be enough to defeat the badnik, freeing the animal inside.
