This game has some of the best music in it... Quite possibly ever. My personal favorite: the music that plays in the options menu. That's right. Awesome music, EVEN in the options menu. Great game, no other words for it.
Just bought the Sega Genesis ultimate collection for the 360....and found this game was on it! god damn it brings back so many memoires from when i was young...this and vectorman
For anyone who doesn't know, this game is available on Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection, along with 47 other games, and is on both the XBOX 360 and PS3.
Oh... my... God. ITS THE GAME!! i played this when I was 5 years old, AND NOW I KNOW WHAT IT IS!!! btw, there was another genesis game that was a side-scroller, it had this fox-looking thing, and i think he had a ? on his shirt. does any1 remember the name of that game?
God! Why hasn't there been a Treasure collection put out yet, seriously? Gunstar, Guardian Heroes, Headdy, Alien Soldier, Silhouette Mirage, Radiant Silvergun...these guys were up there with 90s Squaresoft as a company that could do no wrong.
I remember when I was a young boy that I thought the White-superman character was a Kirby clone holding a blanket. Seriously, once you see it now you can't unsee it.
Headdy was so original, I loved this game, it was so unlike any other in it's day, and the story was unique as well--and props on the Japanese culture references.
Inventive, classy, charming: there isn't much better than Dynamite Headdy! As far as Treasure's releases thus far go, I'd say this is the pick! If you've never tried it, bypass those typical Sonic and Mario games and invest in the premier platformer on the Mega Drive - this!
wow are you people on crack do you know how old this game is? RAYMAN LOOKS LIE HEADDY NOT THE OTEHR WAY AROUND HEADDY WAS THE ORIGNAL UNLIMBED GAME CHARARCTER!!!
Try jumping just before the tower falls a bit. you usually end up on a much higher platform if you position headdy correctly. Just hit TB when he passes underneath you.
Man, this game was SO freaking awesome... I'm mad though; I don't have the game anymore AND my Genesis died... *sigh* anyone want to come to the funeral?
Man, I loved this game. Its such a shame none of my friends ever had a sega megadrive, genesis or an amiga or other consoles. They dont have a clue what this is. Sucks that I dont have anyone to remember the game with xD
I always had to use a cheat to beat this game, that cheat being "start at any level" code that's built-in. I can get VERY far without it, but I always died at Twin Freak. I can beat the final boss, Dark Demon, though. CURSE YOU, TWIN FREAK!!
if u find a similar headcase check it till u see da "B". get it and it will take u 2 da basketball game. then u must get da limited number of shots (the ones with stars). avoid canceling the bonus game and avoid the baskets with the dark demon's face on it! or you will fail your chance to win! If you do get the limited number of shots, you will get 1 secret digit to the secret level. remember to write it down before continuing. if u get all 4 digits, that's it! no more bonus games!
I... love this game. Not my overall favourite but I have loads of nostalgia for it. Loads. I was the first one to upload a Dynamite Headdy video here and now there's been a frigging EXPLOSION of DH videos. Nice to see so many fans of this often over-looked game. I'm going to make a special video of it using the Gunstar Heroes Treasure Box, look out for it.
Both of you are welcome. After all, both of your vids inspired me... well... further inspired me to do this walkthrough of this game. After all, I give credit where credit's due, and inflame19 helped me with the Gens emulator, and whoisthisgit has Bonus Points vids (so there's no point in me doing them).
