DEcapAttack
DEcapAttack is a 1992 Sega Mega Drive action platformer developed by Vic Tokai Corporation. Players control a character navigating through enemy-filled levels using a unique combat system centered on launching detachable heads as projectile weapons. The mechanic ties directly into the game's title and visual design. Movement and jumping form the core platforming elements, while head-throwing serves as the primary offensive strategy against various foes. Levels progress through increasingly challenging enemy formations and environmental obstacles. The game combines straightforward action gameplay with its distinctive weaponry gimmick, requiring players to manage their head projectiles strategically while platforming through each stage. With single-player gameplay, DEcapAttack offers a complete action experience with a quirky premise that sets it apart from conventional platform action games of its era.
