{{ScreenThumb|Wonder Dog, Introduction.png|width=200|Wonder Dog}}
 +
The peaceful dog-ruled planet K-9 finds itself under attack by the evil Pit Bully empire. In a last-ditch effort to save his world, Dr. Kibble fast tracks the Wonder Dog project, an experiment to create a super-powered dog. Running out of time, he tests the serum on his newborn son and sends him to Earth with a special outfit called the Wonder Suit. His son crash lands on the planet and immediately befriends a boy. However, the two are separated as the boy's father does not let him keep the dog. The dog then returns to the ship, dons the Wonder Suit, and becomes Wonder Dog, who must save the planet K-9 from the Pit Bully invasion.

Controls are similar to '''Super Mario'''. {{B}} shoot a Star, {{C}} jump. Accelerate moves with pressing {{B}}.

The game is a platformer with controls similar to the ''Super Mario Bros.'' games. Wonder Dog moves with {{left}} and {{right}} and runs by holding {{B}}. He jumps with {{C}} and can defeat enemies by jumping on them. He can jump farther and higher while running. Holding {{C}} in midair allows Wonder Dog to use his ears to glide. He performs the Spin Dig, which digs into certain terrain, with {{down}}+{{C}}. Wonder Dog can shoot stars with {{A}} for a ranged attack. The speed, distance, and trajectory of the stars fired depends on the Star Power gauge, which is increased by firing multiple stars in quick succession or by holding the fire button.

If Wonder Dog is hit by an enemy, he loses a hit point. He has three total, which can be replenished by finding a Wings item. If he loses all of his hit points, he loses a life. Lives are limited but can be found throughout the game or when 100 Bones are collected. The game ends when the player runs out of lives but can be continued from the start of the current stage.

The goal of the game is to make it to the end of the stage. Stages are mostly linear, but each stage has several hidden areas containing bonus items. There are two hidden stages that can be discovered as well. Many stages contain invisible platforms, which can be revealed by finding a Smiley item.

Wonder Dog (ワンダードッグ) is a platform game for the Sega Mega-CD by Core Design featuring Wonder Dog, a mascot for Victor and the Wondermega during the early 1990s. Core Design later ported it to the Amiga for a Europe-only release.

Story

Wonder Dog, Introduction.png

Wonder Dog

The peaceful dog-ruled planet K-9 finds itself under attack by the evil Pit Bully empire. In a last-ditch effort to save his world, Dr. Kibble fast tracks the Wonder Dog project, an experiment to create a super-powered dog. Running out of time, he tests the serum on his newborn son and sends him to Earth with a special outfit called the Wonder Suit. His son crash lands on the planet and immediately befriends a boy. However, the two are separated as the boy's father does not let him keep the dog. The dog then returns to the ship, dons the Wonder Suit, and becomes Wonder Dog, who must save the planet K-9 from the Pit Bully invasion.

Gameplay

The game is a platformer with controls similar to the Super Mario Bros. games. Wonder Dog moves with Left and Right and runs by holding B. He jumps with C and can defeat enemies by jumping on them. He can jump farther and higher while running. Holding C in midair allows Wonder Dog to use his ears to glide. He performs the Spin Dig, which digs into certain terrain, with Down+C. Wonder Dog can shoot stars with A for a ranged attack. The speed, distance, and trajectory of the stars fired depends on the Star Power gauge, which is increased by firing multiple stars in quick succession or by holding the fire button.

If Wonder Dog is hit by an enemy, he loses a hit point. He has three total, which can be replenished by finding a Wings item. If he loses all of his hit points, he loses a life. Lives are limited but can be found throughout the game or when 100 Bones are collected. The game ends when the player runs out of lives but can be continued from the start of the current stage.

The goal of the game is to make it to the end of the stage. Stages are mostly linear, but each stage has several hidden areas containing bonus items. There are two hidden stages that can be discovered as well. Many stages contain invisible platforms, which can be revealed by finding a Smiley item.
