A spitapillar was a being that originated from the planet Tatooine. One such creature was found by Luke Skywalker within a Jawa sandcrawler.
This peculiar being serves as a minor boss in the Super Star Wars game for the Super Nintendo console. The initial encounter with it by the player occurs during "Level 4: Inside the Sandcrawler." Within the game, this creature possesses the ability to project fireballs both from its mouth and its four appendages. The book Super Star Wars Official Game Secrets refers to it as a "Spitapillar".
