The explosive bones that the Bandito Chicken throws out can kill other enemies, but cannot kill other Bandito Chickens.Before being sprited and programmed for the game, Bandito Chicken was, according to the Design Document, originally supposed to peck players off platforms, which implies that the enemy was originally going to be a live chicken instead of a rotisserie chicken.Along with the Tribe Cheese, U.F.Olive, Pizza Slug and Shrimp Thug, the Bandito Chicken is one of only 5 enemies to keep their Heat Meter behavior.The exploding bone was also its high Heat Meter behavior earlier in development, but became its regular attack after Heat Meter behaviors were scrapped. Bandito Chicken used to drop small, normal bones which did not explode and would behave like a projectile, travelling in an arc.This was changed to the current behavior because it was too similar to that of the Mini John enemy. Before being given their current behavior, Bandito Chicken used to have a different behavior where it'd chase the player when waking up instead of running away.If a player goes near it, it wakes up and starts fleeing and jumping around while throwing large thick explosive bones that can hurt the player and enemies upon landing and exploding. Notably, it is walking on its wings, with its legs sticking up.īandito Chicken sleeps peacefully in place. Bandito Chicken is a rotisserie chicken wearing a sombrero, with its eyes coming out of the hole where its head would be.
