The Mukaka[1] (ムカカ[2]?) is an enemy that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. They are mass produced, centipede-based Badniks created by Dr. Eggman.
Appearance[]
The Mukakas are based on centipedes. Each Mukaka is colored orange, has two cartoony eyes, and two spikes on their sides.
Overview[]
In Sonic Labyrinth, the Mukakas appear exclusively as enemies in Labyrinth of the Factory 3-1 and 3-3. In gameplay, there are three Mukakas that follow each other around and dash around the board erratically. This makes it difficult to avoid them, but they can be easily destroyed by a Spin Dash, and if done correctly, the rebound will destroy all three Mukakas at once. There is a specific Mukaka in Labyrinth of the Factory 3-1 that guards a key, thus it necessary to destroy it to make progress in the level.
Powers and abilities[]
The Mukakas are able to move around very quickly, and are always found in groups, making these Badniks difficult to avoid.
Trivia[]
- The Mukaka's name is derived from mukade, meaning "centipede" in Japanese.
