Step into the shoes of the legendary hero in Ultraman, a 1991 2D fighting game released for the SNES. Developed by Bandai, this classic title tasks you with defending Earth against a series of giant kaiju from the beloved tokusatsu franchise. Rather than a traditional fighting game format, each bout requires you to systematically weaken the monster before finishing it off with a signature energy attack.
How to Play
To win a match, you must completely deplete your opponent’s health bar until “FINISH” flashes on screen, then successfully strike them with your Level 4 special attack (the Spacium Beam). If you fail to use the beam in time, the monster will regenerate health and the fight will continue. The game uses standard SNES controls, mapped to your keyboard: use the Arrow Keys to move, jump, and crouch, with Z, X, A, and S handling your punches, kicks, and special moves. Press Enter to pause or start.
Tips for Success
- Manage Your Energy: Your special attack meter at the bottom of the screen charges automatically. You can only unleash the Spacium Beam when it is fully charged to Level 4, so make sure it is ready when the monster’s health is depleted.
- Hit and Run: Kaiju often deal heavy damage up close. Use jumping kicks to deal damage safely, then back away to let your energy meter build up for your special attacks.
