The Octopus[1] (オクトパス Okutopasu?) is an enemy that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series It is a mass-produced, octopus-based Badnik created by Dr. Eggman.
Appearance[]
The Octopuses are based on octopuses, hence their name. They have eight red tentacles with gray connectors, a red body, a mouth, and two angry eyes.
Overview[]
In Sonic Blast, the Octopuses appear as enemies exclusively in both Acts of Blue Marine Zone. In gameplay, the Octopuses swim vertically through the water or air, as they can only move upward and downward. The player can easily defeat these Badniks with a Spin Jump. However, due to the physics of the game, the player will have trouble controlling themselves to attack the Octopuses. There are even pipes in the Zone that can lead directly to an Octopus. Like other Badniks in the game, they do not release an Animal upon defeat.
Powers and abilaties[]
Octopuses are capable of swimming through water with ease, and can even fly in mid-air despite having no sort of flight-enabling part that allows them to do so.
Trivia[]
- Even after draining the water at the end of Blue Marine Zone Act 1, the Octopuses will still float as if they were underwater.
