Platform

Dynamite Headdy is a platform game in which the player controls Headdy, a puppet with a detachable head. This head can be fired in eight directions to attack enemies and obstacles, as well as retrieve out of reach items. By grabbing a HangMan, Headdy is able to pull himself up various platforms, or drag certain areas towards him. By finding a walking case named HeadCase, Headdy can gain a special head type depending on the image shown on HeadCase at the time he hits it. These range from offensive heads that increase his strength, allows him to shoot homing stars or suck up everything on screen, to support heads which include invulnerability, shrinking to reach small areas and sleeping to regain health. Most of these heads have a time limit before the head returns to normal, with the player able to cancel at any time, though some heads, such as the Pin Head, disable manual cancellation. The game also features a side-scrolling shooter stage, during which Headdy can change between three unique Head Types.

What is Dynamite Headdy about?

Headdy, the central protagonist of the game, arrives in North Town to find 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 into his evil minions. Headdy is captured and rejected by Dark Demon's forces, and is dropped into the dust cargo to be thrown into the incinerator. However, Headdy escapes the clutches of Dark Demon's minions and sets off to defeat the evil king. However, trouble is afoot. Not only is the puppet world filled with Dark Demon's minions, but to reach the evil overlord's castle, Headdy must defeat Dark Demon's Keymasters who serve as the king's elite guard. To make matters worse, Headdy is followed by Trouble Bruin, a puppet jealous of Headdy's success. Trouble Bruin wants to be the star instead of Headdy, and will stop at nothing to get rid of him.

Should I stream Dynamite Headdy on Twitch?

0/100 · Closed off· 7 viewers per streamer on paper

Probably not. The only English stream here holds all 7 English viewers — once you take it out there is nothing left to reach.

The only English stream here holds all 7 English viewers. There is nothing left over for a second.

Almost nobody here is available to you — either a couple of streams hold the room, or nobody is watching in English, or the category is empty, or you would be buried.

This reads the room as it is right now — how much of the English-speaking audience is reachable and where you would land — not how many followers you would gain. That depends on you.

Is Dynamite Headdy too saturated on Twitch?

Not crowded, but not open either. Only 1 person is streaming Dynamite Headdy, and the one English stream holds all 7 English viewers — so the room is quiet because that audience is already committed, not because it is waiting for you.

“Dynamite Headdy is an action-platformer that was developed by Treasure and released in 1994. Done in Treasure style, meaning lotsa bosses and barely any normal stages without gimmicks. 16 Megabit ROM of creativity. The game that you have here is nothing more t…”

“It says a lot about Dynamite Headdy that its bastardized remix of a Game Gear port was the best game I ever played for that battery-eating monster. This game is insane even by Treasure’s usual unbridled standards. The main character’s swappable super-powered p…”
