Dynamite Dux is a Beat 'em Up game made by Sega for the arcades in 1988 and later ported to a handful of other systems.Like many games in the genre, there isn't much in the way of story - an evil sorcerer named Achacha kidnaps a girl named Lucy, and her two pet ducks Bin and Pin step into a portal to rescue her. What follows is a five-stage romp through several different locales and several types of wacky enemies.One of the most interesting parts of the game is the sheer cartooniness of it - the characters are designed in a Tex Avery-like style, and every enemy has a comical death animation (which is sadly missing from most ports).The game is most well-known for being the inspiration behind obscure Sonic character Bean the Dynamite, who appeared in Sonic the Fighters and hasn't appeared since (outside of cameos and appearances in Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics)).Unrelated to Dynamite Duke, a whole different game. | |

Shows Damage | |
| Dynamite Dux (Video Game) / int_15aed120 | comment |
Shows Damage: The fire Mini-Boss shrinks as it takes damage. The star Mini-Boss makes it a bit more obvious - it shrinks with every hit it takes. The player characters get less enthusiastic-looking eyes when low on health. | |

Easter Egg | |
| Dynamite Dux (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 | comment |
The second one was much more obscure and wasn't fully discovered until 30 years or so years after the Amiga port came out. Before it was actually discovered, the code to activate it that was floating around had been proven to be false. In 2017, however, it was discovered that in order to activate the Easter Egg, you have to go into a hex editor, look for the line "IF YOU WANT TO SEE SOMETHING DIRTY PUT CODE HERE >>>>....." and then replace the periods with "DIRTY", the Easter Egg is a much more crude, "dirty" version of the intro. Lucy's dress is swapped for lingerie, and she's kidnapped by a pimp to cover the ducks' gambling debts. | |

Boring, but Practical: The standard punch is the only melee weapon you have for most of the game (the other being the flamethrower, but that only comes about halfway through). | |

No Punctuation Period: The intro text is oddly inconsistent with its punctuation. "Achacha the Great" is always referred to in quotes, but then the intro refers to "lucy(,) startled and frightened(,) was kept in a miracle ball..." | |
