'''Doodads''' are the small destructible props scattered through every level — torches, candles, pots, coral and their kin. 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 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>torchFire</code>, <code>Bottle</code>, <code>catacombThings</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.
