Sunman is an unreleased action platformer for the NES, developed by Sunsoft around 1992. Originally designed as a Superman title before licensing changes prompted a redesign, the game lets players take control of an original flying superhero. You must navigate side-scrolling levels, utilizing flight and powerful physical attacks to defeat villains and restore peace to the city.
How to Play
Your objective is to fight through each stage, taking down enemies and a final boss to progress. The game uses standard NES controls, mapped to the browser as follows: use the Arrow Keys (D-pad) to move, Z / X (B / A buttons) to punch and jump or fly, and Enter / Shift for Start and Select.
Tips
- Use the Skies: Flying gives you a significant mobility advantage, but be wary of anti-air enemies. Use your flight to safely bypass tricky platforming sections.
- Dive Attacks: Attacking from above while flying is a great way to safely clear out ground enemies without taking damage.
- Study Boss Patterns: Bosses deal heavy damage, so take your time to learn their attack sequences before moving in for close-range strikes.
