Unused Enemy?

I was playing around with the ROM of Festers Quest (both the prototype that is out there and the final), trying to find the two unused bosses that were mentioned on the page (they don't appear to be in the game though), but, while editing objects, I came across this weird enemy. I'm pretty sure i've never encountered him before in the game. I could be wrong.

What is he? In the game he's object number $15.- Mistergambit (talk) 06:03, 2 May 2015 (EDT)

Interesting! I don't recall this guy either (if he is in the game then he's in the final dungeon, the UFO), but I do know that it's a reference to yet another Blaster Master boss! Nice find. Rick (talk) 07:44, 2 May 2015 (EDT)

Ok, at least from my most recent playthroughs today, he isn't used. What's interesting is that he uses the graphics the spiky enemy had (which in turn is an edit of the Slime enemy from the sewer/outdoor area). I've already played through both versions twice, and did NOT find him appearing in any of the levels, including the UFO, so I assume he was scrapped because they decided they wanted to use the spiky "slime" enemy instead. Still, very surprised to see it almost fully intact.

I'm still trying to see if I can find the weird alien boss that isn't used, but I'm pretty sure the weird boss with the hat and gun was a prototype for the fifth boss, cause the fifth boss does share a couple of the same tiles as the proto boss did.- Mistergambit (talk) 17:52, 2 May 2015 (EDT)
