Gol (Lolo)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Gol is an enemy character in a series of video games called Eggerland.

A Gol resembles a pink dinosaur. They stay in one place and face one direction. When Lolo collects all the Heart Framers in a level, all the Gols wake up. Once awake, Gols shoot a fireball at Lolo if Lolo passes into their line of sight. Gols may only shoot one fireball at a time -- they cannot shoot another until the first one hits an obstacle and disappears. The fireball can be avoided in some cases if Lolo is at a sufficiently long distance and is fast enough.

[edit] Trivia

• Gols have been featured as enemies in all MSX computer games, starting with Eggerland Mystery.
• Gols' attacks vary in some games. In certain games, Lolo needs to be entirely in a Gol's line of sight before the Gol fires, while in others, Lolo need only be halfway into the Gol's line of sight.
• The Gol's fireball's speed also varies in some games.
• If an object is right in front of the Gol, the Gol does not fire.
• The Gol's graphical representation stayed nearly the same until Adventures of Lolo 2, when the graphics were improved a little
• Gols are red in the Windows version of Eggerland and look more aggressive.
• Gols in the Windows version fire even if an object is right in front of them.
