Barrel Rockets are interactive objects in the game that first appear in Cactus McCoy 2: The Ruins of Calavera. They are first introduced in Thistle Trail.
Movement[]
Barrels Rockets help reach distant areas and platforms, both vertically and horizontally. Once interacted, there is a brief moment during which the player can align Cactus McCoy in the desired direction. After this, the rocket launches, carrying McCoy to a certain height or distant location. While the rocket is in motion, players can steer it using the arrow keys.
Trivia[]
- They can be used to break through weak blocks and instantly eliminate Enemigos with a one-hit knockout.
- While riding Barrels Rockets, Cactus McCoy becomes immune to hazards like Crushers.
- Barrels Rockets with orange fins and warhead move upward, while those with red fins and warhead travel sideways.
