Bombs are interactive objects in Shovel Pirate that are exclusively found in the 2 Player mode.

Physical appearance[edit]

Bombs are circular and dark gray with a shine. A fuse sticks out of one end with a small yellow flame pointing upwards.

Behavior[edit]

Bombs descend from the top of the screen in a straight line downwards. Upon impact with the ground, they will pulsate and detonate after a few seconds. Any pirate caught in the blast will take damage. Players can also use their shovel to move the bombs away from them in a small arc. If a shoveled bomb hits another player, it will instantly explode and cause that player to lose health. Bombs that cross the player's position from the top of the screen are non-solid and will not explode on impact. A player can also shovel bombs in midair while they are falling.

At the start of a stage, one bomb will fall from the top of the screen at a time. As the stage progresses, two bombs will fall at the same time, and the number increases if neither player has defeated their opponent.
