Powerup is a harmless enemy and object who appears in Contrabobo. They hail from Contra.
Origin[]
Powerups were originally items in the NES game Contra. Their original name was Power-up Capsules.
In The Game[]
Powerups only appear, at least, two times in the Jungle section of Contrabobo. They'll appear as capsules that will always float in the air and contain an item inside of them. Once they're shot, they'll explode and drop their item for Abobo to collect. They're items include only the Machine and Spread Guns respectively. They don't contain either the Flamethrower or Lemming Guns inside of them.
Death[]
Killed By
Abobo shot and defeated them with a simple hit, releasing a powerup from them. He can also instantly defeat them by using his Rage Move Bombs Away.
Trivia[]
- Unlike Powerboxes, Powerups don't have their own mugshot. They use Sharpshoot's mugshot instead.
- Powerups are one of the few enemies in Abobo's Big Adventure to not attack or harm Abobo in any way. This is because Powerups are supposed to be items, which also applies to Powerboxes.
