The game's story is negligible and sometimes confusing, but it's the action that counts - and here the game truly shines.Īlthough not quite as captivating as Gunstar Heroes, arguably Treasure's best game, Dynamite Headdy has all the qualities of a classic game: colorful and smooth graphics, imaginative enemies and bosses, cool weapons, and tons of special effects. In this one, you play a robotic ant who attacks enemies by shooting his detachable head.

Defeating the demon will reveal a secret ending for Headdy and the world he has saved.ĭynamite Headdy is an excellent and unique platformer for the SEGA Genesis console that has the same trademark zany sense of humor and creativity that characterize all Treasure games. To finish a game of Dynamite Headdy, the player must make it through 15 levels and defeat Dark Demon. The Spike Head painfully pokes bad guys, and the Spring Head allows Headdy to swing across pits, grab onto objects, and even shoot basketball in a hidden stage. The Vacuum Head can suck up small enemies. The Slammer Head is used like a hammer and can bash enemies out of the way.

In the game, players can choose from 15 different utilitarian heads for Headdy. Ha ha.Dynamite Headdy is a fast paced action game starring Headdy, a bird-likeĬreature who can change heads as the situation arises. I used cool tones, and to compliment that I added in a warm saxophone (thanks to finding one of the best Saxophone VSTs ever) however, I think the bamboo percussion carries the piece.ĮDIT: In the album, this will be titled 'Towering Bliss' for space considerations.

I decided, after failing in my first attempt at a jazzy rendition, to take a more relaxed, and ambient approach, despite how frantic the level itself is. Dynamite Headdy has probably one of the best Genesis soundtracks, no lie. It is a remix of the Tower of Puppet song.
