The Blastoid is a cannon-like badnik found in Hydrocity. The Blastoids found here bare a striking resemblance to the ones found in Sky Base for the 8-bit release of Sonic The Hedgehog, and like their 8-bit counterparts, this version of the badnik sit statically and fire small bullets into the air. The Sonic 3 Blastoids are primarily blue in colour, and fire round orange bullets into the air 3 at a time. The bullets Blastoids fire can be deflected if the player is wearing a Water Shield. Blastoids are commonly found on collapsing bridges, or atop of large loops in Hydro City. They can be defeated either by having the player jump on top of them, or by using the Spin Dash technique. However, due to the fact Blastoids fire missiles, precaution must be taken when timing a jump. Once defeated, a small creature will be released. If the defeated Blastoid was situated on a bridge, a small part of the bridge will collapse, allowing the player to continue downwards through the level.
