Spikes (Shovel Pirate)
Spikes are obstacles in Shovel Pirate. They only appear in graveyard levels.
Physical appearance[edit]
Spikes are triangle-shaped with the tips pointing outward. Each spike alternates in a white and gray color pattern, the latter of which is smaller in size. A black outline is seen on all sides except for the base.
Behavior[edit]
Spikes lie stationary across pits and can also be found on the ceiling atop springs. If the pirate makes contact with the spikes, they will take damage. Some enemies such as mice can be defeated if they walk onto spike pits and if they are defeated and pushed into spikes, they will bounce across the spike pit and disappear once they land on solid ground.
Skeletons are the only enemy that can be found walking in spike pits and will not be defeated when on or among spikes. The player can defeat a skeleton in a spike pit and use its skull as a platform to get across without taking damage.
