Overview

Headdy is the star of the Treasure Theatre production of Dynamite Headdy, and of course the central protagonist of the game. He has come to North Town from the country in order to visit his friends Beau, HangMan and HeadCase. At his own surprise, Headdy arrives to North Town to find out that the evil puppet king Dark Demon is in the midst of attacking the puppet town to select which of the peaceful toys should live and which should be converted and become his evil minions. Headdy is captured by the Robo-Collector and rejected by D.D.'s forces, and then dropped into the dust cargo to be thrown into the incinerator. However, Headdy escapes the clutches of Dark Demon's minions and plots his plan to defeat the evil king.

The game is played over a series of "scenes" and "acts", which often ends with a typical fight with a big boss. Headdy has a special power, for instance his launchable head. He can use it to fire in eight directions: up, down, left, right, and the four diagonals in-between. Launching it at enemies can do damage or destroy them.

His head can also be used to hold on to a "HangMan", being a character that acts like a hook. By doing so, grabbing a HangMan with your head, the player can then use it to hurl themselves in its direction, as if you were attached to an elastic band. Headdy can also swap his head for a special head, only if he attacks a HeadCase. Depending on the symbol that the HeadCase is showing, Headdy will get a different head with different special power.
