— Gumbob
Gumbob is a scrapped playable character. He is a Gumslime with a personality similar to Pepperman.
Description
Gumbob is a Gumslime with a white and purple baseball cap and a permanently dopey expression on his face. He also wears pink gloves and a pair of pink skate boots. He is bigger than a normal Gumslime along with having unusual eyes compared to other Gumslimes. Gumbob's personality/character is that of a overly self-confident and pretentious grafitti artist, soda jerk and stand-up comedian, always believing that he is above everyone else.
