'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' is a 1993 run-and-gun platformer developed by [[MicroProse]] and published by [[Ballistic]]. It was released exclusively in the US for the [[Sega Mega Drive]]. The game was re-released the following year, now with [[Spectrum HoloByte]] responsible for publishing. Plans appear to have been in place at one stage to bring it to Europe, where it was set to appear in March 1994, and later July 1994{{magref|segapro|35|10}}.

==Story==
 +
{{ScreenThumb|Tinhead, Introduction.png|width=200|Introduction}}
 +
An evil intergalactic goblin named Grim Squidge steals all the stars from the sky with a vacuum cleaner-nosed spaceship, seals them in glass spheres, and scatters them far and wide across distant planets, threatening the very infrastructure of spacetime.
 +
 
 +
On a space station far out in the distant reaches of galactic space, Tinhead, the metallic Guardian of the Edge of the Universe, picks up a distress signal from an unknown friend of the stars. Arming his head-mounted ball bearing gun, he rushes to the stars' rescue.
  
 
==Gameplay==
 
==Gameplay==
−
You control a robot named Tinhead, who has to rescue the stars of the galaxy scattered about the planets by Grim Squidge while answering a distress call picked up by a space station. Tinhead's method of attack is shooting a ball from under his helmet in one of three directions with {{B}}: diagonally up, straight forward, or diagonally downward/bouncing; use {{A}} to change which direction to fire in. {{C}} jumps.
+
{{ScreenThumb|Tinhead, Secret Room.png|width=200|Secret room}}
 +
The game is a platformer where the player controls a robot named Tinhead, who has to rescue the stars of the galaxy. The goal of each level is to find the Lucky Star to activate the Transporter and then move Tinhead into the Transporter to move to the next level. Along the way, Tinhead collects items, including Crystal Globes containing stars to free, and fights enemies. Tinhead can also occasionally find vehicles that he can ride to help him travel through the level.
 +
 
 +
Tinhead moves with {{left}} and {{right}} and ducks with {{down}}. He jumps with {{C}} and jumps longer if the button is held for longer. The player can pan the view to see potential hazards by pausing the game with {{Start}} and moving the D-Pad. His method of attack is shooting ball bearings from under his helmet with {{B}} (which can be held for continuous fire). This attack can be launched in three different directions: diagonally up, straight forward, or diagonally downward. The player can cycle through the directions with {{A}}. Tinhead can attack while ducking or jumping. Balls bounce off surfaces and roll along the ground. Normally, Tinhead can only shoot one ball at a time, but he can find items that upgrade his maximum balls as high as five.
 +
 
 +
Levels contain secret rooms where the player can earn bonus points by collecting items. Tinhead exits the secret room when time runs out or when he enters the Transporter. Additionally, the player is awarded bonus points at the end of each sector for each secret room found as well as special bonuses if the player completes the sector without taking any damage or if every shot fired by Tinhead hits an enemy.
 +
 
 +
Tinhead's health is measured in batteries, up to a maximum of five. If he takes damage from an enemy or a hazard while riding a vehicle, he loses the vehicle; otherwise, he loses a battery as well as reducing his maximum number of shots (to a minimum of one). When he loses all of his batteries, he can only sustain one more hit before he loses a life and must restart the level from the beginning.
 +
 
 +
There are two difficulty levels, Normal and Practice. The Practice difficulty shortens the game by removing half of the levels and world guardians. The game has a password system for continuing.
 +
 
 +
===Items===

Each world contains an assortment of unique items that award bonus points.

A ROM image of the SNES version has leaked and appears to be complete.

Since the SNES controller has more buttons than a standard Mega Drive control pad, each direction of Tinhead's shot is mapped to a different button and the player can pan the view using the shoulder buttons during gameplay.

Tinhead is a 1993 run-and-gun platformer developed by MicroProse and published by Ballistic. It was released exclusively in the US for the Sega Mega Drive. The game was re-released the following year, now with Spectrum HoloByte responsible for publishing. Plans appear to have been in place at one stage to bring it to Europe, where it was set to appear in March 1994, and later July 1994[2].

Story

Tinhead, Introduction.png

Introduction

An evil intergalactic goblin named Grim Squidge steals all the stars from the sky with a vacuum cleaner-nosed spaceship, seals them in glass spheres, and scatters them far and wide across distant planets, threatening the very infrastructure of spacetime.

On a space station far out in the distant reaches of galactic space, Tinhead, the metallic Guardian of the Edge of the Universe, picks up a distress signal from an unknown friend of the stars. Arming his head-mounted ball bearing gun, he rushes to the stars' rescue.

Gameplay

Tinhead, Secret Room.png

Secret room

The game is a platformer where the player controls a robot named Tinhead, who has to rescue the stars of the galaxy. The goal of each level is to find the Lucky Star to activate the Transporter and then move Tinhead into the Transporter to move to the next level. Along the way, Tinhead collects items, including Crystal Globes containing stars to free, and fights enemies. Tinhead can also occasionally find vehicles that he can ride to help him travel through the level.

Tinhead moves with Left and Right and ducks with Down. He jumps with C and jumps longer if the button is held for longer. The player can pan the view to see potential hazards by pausing the game with  START  and moving the D-Pad. His method of attack is shooting ball bearings from under his helmet with B (which can be held for continuous fire). This attack can be launched in three different directions: diagonally up, straight forward, or diagonally downward. The player can cycle through the directions with A. Tinhead can attack while ducking or jumping. Balls bounce off surfaces and roll along the ground. Normally, Tinhead can only shoot one ball at a time, but he can find items that upgrade his maximum balls as high as five.

Levels contain secret rooms where the player can earn bonus points by collecting items. Tinhead exits the secret room when time runs out or when he enters the Transporter. Additionally, the player is awarded bonus points at the end of each sector for each secret room found as well as special bonuses if the player completes the sector without taking any damage or if every shot fired by Tinhead hits an enemy.

Tinhead's health is measured in batteries, up to a maximum of five. If he takes damage from an enemy or a hazard while riding a vehicle, he loses the vehicle; otherwise, he loses a battery as well as reducing his maximum number of shots (to a minimum of one). When he loses all of his batteries, he can only sustain one more hit before he loses a life and must restart the level from the beginning.

There are two difficulty levels, Normal and Practice. The Practice difficulty shortens the game by removing half of the levels and world guardians. The game has a password system for continuing.

Each world contains an assortment of unique items that award bonus points.

History

Development

According to producer Stuart Whyte, the game was originally called Waldo during development.[3]

Legacy

The Super NES version of the game was released on Steam in 2022 by Piko Interactive.

Versions

Ports for both the Amiga and Super NES were in development and scheduled for 1994 but were cancelled.[4] A Jaguar conversion of the game was also in development and completed but was never released due to low sales of the system.[5][6]

A ROM image of the SNES version has leaked and appears to be complete. This version uses a screen size of 256x224 compared to the 320x224 of the Mega Drive version, so the field of view is narrower and the art is stretched horizontally. Since the SNES controller has more buttons than a standard Mega Drive control pad, each direction of Tinhead's shot is mapped to a different button and the player can pan the view using the shoulder buttons during gameplay.
