Micro Goomba

Microgoombas, alternatively billed "Mini Goombas", are a subspecies of Goomba, and an underling of the Paragoomba. They were featured throughout the entire Mario series - initially in Super Mario Bros. 3 - and vastly resemble regular Goombas since they are nothing but brown humanoid mushrooms. Their only difference is being slightly smaller.

Their primary aim is to slow down the player, or better still, pervert their progress. Contact with the Microgoombas will result in them clinging to you; preventing you from being able to jump very high. Incessant jumping will shake them off.If they touch Mario, they will cling to him, rendering him unable to jump high. Jumping repeatedly will shake them off.
