Popeye

Popeye is a brawling enemy found in The Junkyard, The Desert, and The Lab. It charges with a dash attack that deals 8 damage and sends its target flying back 10 tiles, a devastating knockback capable of launching cats off ledges or into hazards. With 17 HP it is reasonably durable and can accumulate into a serious threat if left alive. Ranged units should engage before it closes to melee range, and like Tom Toms, it rewards early aggression over letting it build pressure.
