The Driller Engineer is a Rebel enemy in Metal Slug: Awakening.
Information[]
Hard-working underground excavation engineers, who would use their drills to fight in a pinch. They hop around under the ground day and night, looking for valuable minerals. Equipped with a safety helmet and a hoe, they are proud of their hard work and sweat. They used to be chased by the Mouse Auto Drill often on the ground, where they invented this strange way of moving.
These Rebels use their jack hammers as pogo-sticks for transportation. They move by making small hops and occasionally getting their drill stuck in the ground. They attack by rotating the drill during the jump. If far away from the player, they'll jump very high up and attempt to home onto the player. The resulting shockwave does not deal any damage.
