Daffy Duck in Hollywood is a platform game released for the Sega Mega Drive, Sega Master System, and Sega Game Gear in 1995.
Story
The mad Professor Duck Brain has stolen Yosemite Sam's Golden Cartoon Awards and is holding them for ransom. Sam calls upon Daffy Duck to recover his awards and deal with the mad professor and his henchmen.
Gameplay
The game is a platformer starring Daffy Duck, who explores levels based on movie genres. Daffy must collect all bundles of dynamite to unlock the next section of the level and eventually the exit. Each section is blocked off by a wall; if Daffy stands next to the wall without collecting all of the dynamite, an arrow points him back the way he came. When he collects all of the dynamite, the game alerts him "GO!" to notify him that the blocker is unlocked. Daffy must also find all of Yosemite Sam's Golden Movie Awards hidden in the levels to get the good ending.
Daffy walks with or , runs by holding with a or , and crawls with or . Many items, including bundles of dynamite, are in hidden rooms accessible only by crawling. He ducks with and jumps with . He can jump farther while running. Daffy's weapon of choice is a bubble cannon to shoot enemies, which he fires with . The bubble gun traps enemies in bubbles, which Daffy can pop by touching. Enemies return if Daffy does not pop their bubbles.
Daffy has three health points. When he loses all three health points, he can take one more hit before he loses a life. He also loses a life if time runs out. He restarts the level at the beginning of the last section. Time is replenished at the start of each section. Daffy is also ambushed in various cartoonish ways if he stands idle for too long, which also costs him a life.
