Ahead of its time when released in 95, Vectorman's setting is one that today could onlyseem more relevant today. Humans have abandoned earth leaving behind “orbots” to clean up the mess mankind has made of the planet.
A rogue orbot, Warhead has gone mental, attached a nuclear missile to his head and taken over the world and plans to execute any humans who dare return to earth.
Enter Vectorman, a humble orbot in charge of cleaning up toxic sludge by simply discharging it into the sun. As he lands on Earth after his last trip, he finds chaos and confusion. All the other Orbots are now controlled by Warhead, Vectorman takes it upon himself to destroy the errant orbot and restore peace to Earth.
The game itself is a straightforward 2D action platformer. Vectorman's body is composed entirely of orbs. Powered with a ball gun in his hand; power-ups include a machine gun, "bolo" gun, and triple-fire guns.
Vectorman possesses the ability to transform, through the use of powerups, into several different forms: including a drill, to cut through floors; a bomb, to destroy all surrounding enemies or destroy walls. His aquatic form, useful for swimming underwater.
This game really is a perfect bit of 16 bit magic.
