Sonic Blast Man is an action game released in 1992 for the Super Nintendo platform. The game centers around fighting waves of enemies using powerful punches and special attacks, aiming to clear each level by defeating all opponents. Players control Sonic Blast Man, a superhero with a focus on close-range combat, progressing through various stages filled with diverse enemy types.
The gameplay maintains a brisk pace, combining fast action with strategic use of the character's unique mechanic: an energy meter that charges powerful "blast" moves. This mechanic adds a layer of timing and resource management, as players decide when to unleash stronger attacks to maximize damage. The game’s flow encourages continuous movement and quick reactions to survive the enemy onslaughts.
One distinctive feature of Sonic Blast Man is its emphasis on hand-to-hand combat in a side-scrolling format, enhanced by the ability to perform charged punches that visually impact enemies. This mechanic, along with the superhero theme, sets it apart from typical beat 'em up games of its time.
