im designing a 2d platformer where you play a skunk that has moved to a new city and must out skunk the neighborhood skunks to earn your white stripes. Currently i have a racoons,flys,bees,squirrels and humans as enemies. Im just not sure what else i can add in for common place enemies that you might see wandering a city's alleyways. Any thoughts?

cats, dogs, rats, cars, spiders, ants, hedgehogs, pies, midges, pidgeons.
Just a few things that came to mind :)

heh - that's hilarious...

I would add cats, definitely dogs (as a danger as well as an "alarm"), and maybe divide humans into other categories like concerned housewives and uninterested dads, and animal control.

Good luck with your project.

You can also have different genres for different areas. For example, a steampunk/high-tech section with trashcan robots and bizarre Rube Goldberg mechas driven by rodents, or a redneck area where everyone's armed with shotguns and beer cans, or...you get the idea.

You know how in pubic bathrooms there are sometimes automatic perfume dispenser things? It seems to me that a skunk's natural enemy would be perfume... Maybe perfumey flowers if you want something more naturalistic.

Watch out for the urinal pucks! You could loose strips when making contact with them... ah well, back to me corner.
