'''Doodads''' are the small destructible props scattered through every level — torches, candles, pots, coral and their kin. Stomping one bounces you and recharges your [[Gunboots]] '''without''' ending your [[Combos|combo]], which makes them the connective tissue of long chains. They drop a few [[Gems|gems]] when broken.
'''Doodads''' are the small destructible props scattered through the levels; torches, candles, pots and coral. The game's code has no collective name for them (each is its own object: <code>Torch</code>, <code>Scattered16</code>, <code>Bottle</code>, <code>catacombThings</code>, <code>Clam</code>, <code>coralSpike</code>, <code>limboDebris</code>); ''doodads'' is the established community term. Stomping one bounces the player and recharges the [[Gunboots]] without ending the current [[Combos|combo]]. They drop a few [[Gems|gems]] when broken.


Doodads are usually drawn in the scenery colour (white in the default [[Palettes|palette]]); the candles of the [[Catacombs]] and the underwater props of the [[Aquifer]] are the exceptions. In [[Limbo]], floating doodads are the only things to bounce on at all.

In [[Boulder Style]], walking into a doodad simply smashes it.
In [[Boulder Style]], walking into one breaks it.

Every doodad appearance in the game, in its unbroken state. Where an object picks a random frame (the catacomb props, coral, and all the limbo debris), each variant is shown. Purely decorative scenery that cannot be stomped or broken (cobwebs, hanging chains, seaweed) is not included. The torch is shown wall-mounted: its sprite also contains a floor-standing brazier variant, and the code supports placing it, but no level pattern in the game ever puts a torch above solid ground, so the floor version never appears in play.
