[[File:Vectorman.png|right|160px]]'''''Vectorman''''' is a platform game developed by [[BlueSky Software]] and published by [[Sega]] for the [[Sega Mega Drive]]. It was released on October 24, 1995 in North America and on November 30, 1995 in Europe.

''Vectorman'' was made partly in response to [[Nintendo]]/[[Rare]]'s ''Donkey Kong Country'', which contained pioneering graphics with pre-rendered 3D models as sprites. ''Donkey Kong Country''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s marketing stated that the game was impossible to do on Sega's Mega Drive, and ''Vectorman'' acts as one attempt to prove Nintendo wrong.
