Hachoo! (Video Game) | comment |
Hachoo! is a 1989 Oriental-themed side-scrolling Beat 'em Up action game by Jaleco.Set in what appears to be ancient China, the player assumes the role of a young, unnamed kung-fu warrior living in a temple, about to complete his training, when news of an all-powerful great evil about to be awakened by an Evil Wizard breaks out. Eager to prove your worth, you then set out to destroy this unknown evil by yourself.The title, according to Jaleco, comes from a Chinese karate yell (a variant of "hi-yah!") but translated to kanji. It's... not exactly well-explained.Odd title and generic-as-hell backstory aside, one of the key selling points is the sheer amount of Camera Abuse you can pull off during gameplay. Half of your Finishing Move involves you grabbing and flinging a near-defeated opponent towards the screen, before their splattered face slowly slides off the camera. It's even on the posters. | |

Hachoo! (Video Game) / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: The backstory shown in-game via a two-second-clip of a statue breaking, and your character volunteering for the mission in a cutscene before the title screen appears. Any further elaboration comes from the game's back cover, and occasionally promotional flyers (which sadly is available only in Japanese). | |

Title Drop | |
Hachoo! (Video Game) / int_18d15922 | comment |
Title Drop: The basic bald enemies you run into at the very start and throughout the game all say "Hachoo!" in a quite high pitched voice when they attack. The title screen also echoes with a mighty "Hachoo!" | |

Power Floats | |
Hachoo! (Video Game) / int_287083f7 | comment |
Power Floats: The Final Boss doesn't need to walk in his battle since he can just hover above the ground all over the place. It's very likely done to save animation costs. | |

Hachoo! (Video Game) / int_40e2ac3f | comment |
Flunky Boss: Most of the bosses will have minions surrounding them. The Evil Wizard and F Inal Boss can notably teleport minions into the arena (all the mooks you previously fought) to back him up. | |

Good Old Fisticuffs | |
Hachoo! (Video Game) / int_51beab21 | comment |
Good Old Fisticuffs: You, and 70% of the mooks and bosses, all fight with punches and kicks. There are mooks who use sticks and staff as weapons, but don't expect any swords or spears being used. | |

A Molten Date with Death | |
Hachoo! (Video Game) / int_7308fa71 | comment |
A Molten Date with Death: During the stage set in an active volcano, where there's a river of lava running across the side of the screen just as you're fighting mooks. You risk suffering this trope if you step into the lava, but since you're a brawler, you can grapple and throw mooks into the lava as well. | |

Chinese Vampire: Jiangshi shows up as a lesser enemy and yes, they too can be beaten down by fists or flung into the camera. These enemies tend to have their eyes popping out when hitting the screen. | |

Hachoo! (Video Game) / int_9dd2329c | comment |
Camera Abuse: The fates of 50% of the mooks when you defeat them with the "throw" move. It's even plastered all over the cover and flyers!... if you defeat the Final Boss, the game then ends with an animated montage of all the mook varieties hitting the camera, one at a time. | |

Hachoo! (Video Game) / int_db452de7 | comment |
Flying on a Cloud: The very first stage have you flying on a nimbus cloud towards the Shaolin temple for training, with airborne enemies - flying on their own clouds - in pursuit. You'll need to defeat these enemies by punching and knocking them off their clouds. | |

Broken Record: Whether you complete the game or not, by the end of the day you'll have your unnamed protagonist's shouts "Hyap! Hyap! Hyap! Hyap!" stuck at the end of your brain. That's seriously all he says in-game! | |

Gross-Up Close-Up: Most of the Camera Abuse finishing moves involves getting the face of a random mook plastered into the camera, to the point where the mook is close enough to French-kiss the player. Eww. | |

Hachoo! (Video Game) / int_fed07537 | comment |
Mighty Whitey: Implied, although not stated in-game. Your character is blonde, despite the game being set entirely in ancient China, and is the only character in the game with a fairer skin tone. You could be a white martial arts practitioner honing your skills in the Far East, or a foreigner adopted by the Chinese temple, but it's not really made clear. | |
