BOOMERANG

BOOMERANG is a hammer module in BONK! The Mole Show, the pixel-art whack-a-mole roguelite.

Level 1

Every 7th BONK the hammer is thrown up your column, BONKing up to 2 moles on the way, and returns.

Level 2

Every 6th BONK, and it flies further. The return trip hits survivors again and re-triggers a popped special.

Mutation A: DOUBLE BOOMERANG

A second boomerang flies up the next column toward the middle. Together they still BONK up to 2 moles, one strike slower.

Mutation B: SAWBLADE

Embeds at the top and spins 2 rows, BONKing its hole and both neighbours each row.

GOLDEN RETURNGOLDPop a Gold on the way out and the boomerang returns gilded: every special it popped fires again and sheds a Golden spark.
ROYAL THROWKINGThe boomerang flies THROUGH the King on the way out, raising his Crown. At Lv2 the return trip cashes it in.
MAGNET CATCHMAGNETA Magnet in the boomerang's path catches it: the boomerang bounces off the Magnet and flies again from there.

Resonance

  • GOLDEN RETURN: The gilded return also plants a fresh Gold mole in the column.
  • ROYAL THROW: The royal return pays the Crown out a second time at half value.
  • MAGNET CATCH: Two catches per strike, and a Magnet under the Sawblade gets a burst of its own.

Tips

  • A hammer module takes one of your 4 hammer slots and changes where and how the hammer hits.
  • At Level 2 you choose its final form: DOUBLE BOOMERANG or SAWBLADE, or one of its 3 chemistry recipes.
  • Its BONKs count as the PROJECTILE family.
  • It is in the base pool: it can be offered from your first run.
