Spike crusher blocks

Spike crusher blocks are an enemy from Hot Air Jr. Unlike most enemies, this enemy only appears in Hot Air's house.

Appearance
Crusher spike blocks appear as blueish-grey squares with small spike surrounding each side of them. Ten spikes are on each side of the block. They have black eyes that are in the shape of a thick lines, and small, rectangular eyebrows with ridges on the bottom. They have moustaches that are not connected together, and curl at the tips. Next to each moustache is a pink dot to mark their cheeks. On the top of the block is a large square of white from the light reflecting off them.

When they fall down, the Blocks' eyebrows will move down halfway over their eyes, giving them a more determined, serious look. Their eyebrows also lose their ridges. When they hit the ground, they shut their eyes for roughly a second, and then open them into their normal position as they float back up. When their eyes are closed, their eyes turn into smaller, horizontal lines, and their eyebrows slant downward.

Game Information
Spike crusher blocks only appear in the attic of Hot Air's house, but not in any levels. Upon entering the attic, there is a Spike crusher block, the level 13 door, another Block, the level 14 door, a third Block, and the level 15 door. The Blocks start at the ceiling, and then fall to the floor. When they hit the floor a crashing sound is heard. After hitting the floor, they hold the position for about a second, and then begin floating upward to the ceiling again. It takes the Blocks about six seconds to float from the floor ceiling and then fall again, so the player has to use that time to blow the balloon to the other side without touching the Block in the process. The player can go over the blocks too, although they have less time to make it over- about 4.5 seconds. If the balloon or it's basket touch any part of a Spike crusher block, they will die and have to start over at the last door pad they touched.
