Sprinklan

Sprinklan is a robot that has the appearance of a Spine, and the attitude of a Spring Head. It surveys floors and will rush at you (however it will not if playing on Easy Difficulty). If hit by either shot or by collision with the player, it's head will spring up and fire energy shots wildly. It appears in Blade Man and Strike Man's stages, as well as Dr. Wily stages 2 and 3 (in Hard Mode it also appears in Dr. Wily stage 1). It can be destroyed with a single shot of Chill Spike.
