Puftups are blowfish like enemies that inhabit the waters of Crocodile Isle and Donkey Kong Island.
Puftups first appear in the game Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest as semi-common enemies. Puftups have two attack patterns in this game, they will either inflate, thus growing large in size or they will cause themselves to explode, hurling spikes through the water. Puftups can only be defeated with help from Enguarde the Swordfish.
Puftups also appear in Donkey Kong Land 2, here they do not inflate and explode.
The next appearance of Puftups is in Donkey Kong 64. The Puftups of this game are oddly purple and are often stationary, but if approached by a Kong they will explode spectacularly, this effectively makes them aquatic mines. Also the boss of the area Gloomy Galleon in Donkey Kong 64 is a giant Puftup named Puftoss.
After a long absence from the Donkey Kong Universe, Puftups returned in DK Jungle Climber, where they only be defeated by a charge attack when they're deflatted.
Trivia
- In the game Banjo-Tooie a pufferfish enemy called Swellbelly appears, this enemy is almost identical to the Donkey Kong 64 Puftups, the only difference is that it is red and is fought slightly differently.
- The word Puftup is a reference to how the Puftup is "Puffed Up".
Notable Puftups
