A Thwimp is an enemy that will jump back and forth over a distance. They are only in the castle tileset in original game, although they could be used outside castles. They are recommended through not to be put beside walls, because they can get stuck in the walls. Also, when placed in specific place, a thwimp can clip between 2 blocks of a wall of solid objects (with y-value of 2 or greater) and jump back and fourth between wall and ground.

Thwimps are a smaller version of the Thwomp sprite. Mario can spin-jump off of a Thwimp, but he can not jump on it normally.

Thwimps can be killed with a shell or throw block.
