"''A blob of magma that lives in the ground. It's been given the soul of Medusa. It seeps out of the ground at Pit's feet.''"

As burrowing enemies, McGoos appear unexpectedly from beneath the platforms during the Underworld levels of the game. They are capable of spitting out flaming projectiles in one direction, however they cannot move from their spot while doing so. They appear in the wake of [[Pit]]'s footsteps, quickly appearing and launching a fireball, then [[Enemy Tactics#Burrowing|burrowing]] back into the ground. As such, it's very hard to launch a counterattack, though a watchful Pit can see them form shortly before they congeal enough to let loose the fireball. Pit can crouch under the fireballs to avoid them and they luckily generally appear on hard surfaces only.

It's called the Spitball Blob here and it's a little bit slower on the draw.

"''Semianimate creatures born from the magma of the Underworld. Their brains put out a continuous source of heat that keeps their magma piping hot. Lacking smarts, they sometimes stumble into water, which never goes well for them.''"
The newly renamed '''Magmoo''' is a monster that usually only appears in hot environments, such as the [[Phoenix Mountain]] in ''[[The Wish Seed]]''. Their attacks have the ability to burn Pit. The yellow arrow that appears above enemies can indicate their hidden position beneath the ground.
