BOOMERANG SUPERMAN PASSWORD

BOOMERANG SUPERMAN PASSWORD

The game utilized a password system to save progress. In two-player mode the aim is to work cooperatively to defeat the enemies, although it is still possible to blow up one's teammate with one's own bombs. The normal game can be played by one or two players. Instead, once the arena has been cleared of one set of robot Bombermen, then the next set walk into the arena, thus making this world one continuous battle. The end of each stage is not defined like the other worlds. The arena has no destructible walls or exit doors. World 5 differs from the rest in that the player fights robot Bombermen in an arena. The player makes progress through the game by clearing all the enemies from the stage and then exiting via a door that is hidden under one of the destructible walls. Each world has eight stages with the last stage being a boss fight. Normal Game consists of six themed worlds each with its own set of enemies. There are many different items which give the player different abilities these change a player's tactics and the way the game is played. These items are normally revealed when destroying walls or killing enemies. Special items can be picked up by walking over icons on the screen. This leads to the tactic of trapping enemies with bombs and forcing them into bomb blasts but can also result in the player's defeat. Once a bomb is laid, it is usually impossible to walk past until it has detonated. If a bomb blast hits one of these soft walls, then it disintegrates, allowing characters to pass through the now empty space. Most levels start with the grid being partially filled with destructible soft walls. If the flame from any bomb hits any character it will injure or kill them (unless they are currently invincible).

If a bomb explodes and the flame hits another bomb it will cause this second bomb to detonate early. The game revolves around the idea of using these bomb blasts to destroy walls and enemies. This bomb will pulse for a few seconds (giving the player time to run away) and then explode, shooting flames horizontally and vertically. Pressing a button will make Bomberman drop a bomb at his feet.

The grid restricts the movement of characters so they can only move horizontally or vertically around the screen. The screen shows the top down view of a grid of 143 (13 x 11) squares. The game takes place on a single non-scrolling screen.
