Spring Catapult

The Spring Catapult,^[1] also known simply as the spring,^[2] is a gimmick in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It can usually be found in casino-themed Zones. In gameplay, as the playable character spins on a Spring Catapult, its spring will depress, then launch the player forward or upward at high speed.

Description

Spring Catapults work similarly to the plungers on real-life pinball tables. Spring Catapults are usually located in a sharp turn or at the other end of a tunnel. When the playable character enters the tunnel, they start rolling down it, before ending up on the top of the Spring Catapult's spring where the character continues to roll around in one spot. When the player holds down the jump button, the Spring Catapult's spring depresses. Once the spring is fully depressed, the player can release the jump button and launch the playable character forward or upward through the tunnel's most direct route.

If the Spring Catapult is not fully depressed, the playable character will only be launched a short distance and will fall back on the Spring Catapult. In a few games, the player does not need to load the Spring Catapult as it automatically launches the playable character itself.

In other media

Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog

A single Spring Catapult is seen in episode "Robotnikland" of Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, where it is part of large pinball table called "Pin-Ball Blizzard" in a park that Dr. Robotnik has taken over.

After Sonic starts to rule the pinball game however, Robotnik sends Scratch and Grounder into the Spring Catapult and launches them onto the pinball table, only for the two of them to get bounced back and forth while Sonic escapes the "Pin-Ball Blizzard".

Sonic the Hedgehog (TV series)

In the episode "Game Guy" of the Sonic the Hedgehog animated series, Sonic gets launched once by a large Spring Catapult when he enters Robotnik's giant pinball table inside a large pyramid base.
