Megalon: The Guardian of Mu |
| Sadly,
Megalon is a fairly lackluster character through and through,
as he is not exceptionally quick, deals fairly low damage
and also boasts some weak projectiles. His only true claim
to fame is his Dual Drill, which deals nice damage although
it's very slow and easily blocked. As a side note, the
game seems to credit him as the Guardian of Mu, the underwater
race from Atragon
(1963), instead of the Seatopians. |

| Moves |
 |
Stab (II) |
| A
very quick attack that does little damage, as Megalon
quickly raises his drill hand and then punches forward
with it. This move can also be performed while ducking. |
 |
Drill (Hold
II) |
| Megalon's
drill is as the name suggests, where the monster punches
with one of his arms as the drill on the end begins to
spin rapidly. The player can hold II to have the attack
last as long as desired. This move can also be performed
while ducking. |
 |
Aerial Drill
(While jumping, II) |
| During
this attack, Megalon raises his drill hand as it begins
to spin over his head. Unfortunately, this move has nearly
no range to it because it's pointed directly overhead,
although it's perfect versus airborne foes, however few
they might be. |
 |
Double Kick
(While jumping, Down, II) |
| While
in midair, Megalon can perform a double kick move where
he swings out both of his feet. |
 |
Dual Drill
(While jumping, Forward + II) |
| While
airborne, Megalon combines his two drill hands and begins
to slowly glide horizontally across the screen while slowly
losing altitude. Once started, this attack can not be
canceled until Megalon touches the ground. |
 |
Lightning
Bolt (Up, Back, Forward, II)  |
| Megalon's
giant horn begins to glow as it unleashes a lightning
bolt in his opponent's direction. The beam can be angled,
either down or up, if a desired direction is pressed on
the d-pad before being fired. Sadly, in terms of projectiles,
this attack deals very little damage. |
 |
Napalm Bomb
(Down, Forward, II) |
| Megalon
opens its mouth and spits out a napalm bomb, aimed downwards.
Upon impact with the ground, the bomb will detonate, causing
a small fissure of flames to spread with three small spires
of fire appearing on each side of the bomb's impact. It
should be noted that the damage from the bomb will not
stun opponents, as they can walk through it only receiving
damage. |
 |
Bite (Down,
II) |
| With
his enemy in range, Megalon reaches in and begins to bite
at his opponent with his pincer-like jaws as blood begins
to splatter. |
 |
Dynamite Kick
(Forward/Back, II) |
| With
his opponent in his grasp, Megalon rears his foot back
and kicks with a tremendous force, sending his foe flying
across the screen. This attack has the same effect regardless
of if Forward or Back is used. |
