Dynamite Headdy
Although not quite as captivating as Gunstar Heroes, arguably Treasures 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. Like other action games from Treasure, Dynamite Headdy offers a lot of variety and surprises. There are many head upgrades you can pick up to increase your bashing power, and the bosses are very wacky and creative to say the least. You can shoot your head in any direction (including diagonally), and similar to Mega Mans boomerang, your head can change direction in mid-flight to track your movement. Controlling the head is key to winning the game and that requires a lot of reflexes.
With wacky humor, lots of cool head upgrades, many surprises, the zaniest boss monsters ever designed, and nonstop action, Dynamite Headdy is a must-play for fans of platformers. Its not as timeless as Gunstar Heroes, but its a very, very good game. Two thumbs up for this underdog.
