Thunder Hoop. Well, that's what the game's title is.Thunder Hoop is a 1992 arcade Run-and-Gun-platformer hybrid made by Spanish company Gaelco (the same guys behind Biomechanical Toy), one of the company's many titles released during its peak of operations during the 90s.As narrated by the opening, in the future a rogue geneticist named Dr. DANIEL GENBREAK has unleashed his creations on humanity, and to counter Genbreak's creations, a top-secret Super-Soldier research called the "Thunder Hoop" Project is developed. Said project manifests into a humanoid form as a teenager, albeit one with superhuman strength, agility and stamina, and the ability to launch energy blasts from his hands. After escaping the lab he's created in, Thunder Hoop makes a beeline for Genbreak's mutant-infested laboratories to put an end to the mutation outbreak.A sequel is released a couple years later, called Thunder Hoop 2 (or Thunder Hoop Strikes Back). In-universe, a decade has passed since Genbreak Lab's destruction, but Dr. Genbreak, having survived the events of the first game, is back for revenge. A now-adult Thunder Hoop must fight him again. Said sequel forgoes most of the platforming elements from the original, making it a far more straightforward Run-and-Gun actioner.A third game, Thunder Hoop III, was planned, but cancelled in the last minute for reasons unknown. | |

Deadly Disc: One of the mutant creatures, Madmachine, having fused itself with a lumberjack vehicle, has a disc attached to its front, which it uses either to slice up Thunder Hoop while ramming towards him or launch the saw from a distance (and then regenerate a new one). The sequel has a red-skinned, winged reptilian monster boss who wields a circular disc in its claws, which it uses to attack Thunder Hoop. | |

Bloodier and Gorier: Strikes Back is noticeably more violent and gorier than its predecessor. The original game's comic-like nature is all but gone, and the onscreen deaths are far more graphic and gorn-tastic. | |

The final confrontation has him sending a clone of Thunder Hoop instead, and once the Final Boss is defeated, Thunder Hoop destroys Dr. Genbreak's lab automatically in a cutscene. | |

It allows Thunder Hoop to hop on them and bounce from one enemy to another while remaining mid-air on the same spot for several seconds. | |

Disney Death: The second game's last stage ends with Thunder Hoop finally destroying Dr. Genbreak's final creation, blowing up the entire lab in the process, with Genbreak getting blown up in the quarters as the entire base is exploding around Thunder Hoop before the screen fades to black, leaving the audience to wonder what happened to him. It is implied that he escaped from the lab afterwards, because after the end credits appear over a black screen with a stone slab that says "R.I.P. Genbreak", he is shown picking up the slab and throwing it into the camera. | |

Inflating Body Gag: In the second game, human enemies hit by Thunder Hoop's blasts will somehow comically inflate before exploding. | |

People Jars: How Thunder Hoop is depicted as a test subject in the first game's cinematics. In the "Continue?" screen if the player loses a life, Thunder Hoop is depicted as trapped in another tank of liquid as a Game-Over Man unless the player uses a continue. | |

Goomba Springboard | |
Thunder Hoop (Video Game) / int_b93b00ef | comment |
Goomba Springboard: You might notice enemies tend to show up in large numbers in certain areas (and moving in a cyclical pattern), for good reasons. Most of these areas either contains hidden ledges or bonuses on top of the screen, without any platforms available, so instead Thunder Hoop will simply jump on enemies' heads (rather than blasting them from a distance) to gain higher ground. The first game have a long corridor where the ground is toxic waste, with platforms too far apart for Thunder Hoop to cross. But conveniently there are plenty of flying enemies and octopus-creatures jumping out of the toxic, form Thunder Hoop to use as Goomba platforms. | |

Thunder Hoop (Video Game) / int_bbca7a41 | comment |
Mirror Match: Negative, the game's Final Boss and the hero's Evil Counterpart released by Professor Genbreak in a last-ditch attempt to stop Thunder Hoop. He's the only humanoid boss with ranged, Hand Blast attacks like the titular hero, and the subsequent boss fight has Thunder Hoop and his clone swapping energy bolts until one goes down. | |

Fartillery: The blue, bipedal "Peth" enemies, mutants who fart weak projectiles at Thunder Hoop as an attack. They're truly one of the most hilariously outrageous enemy types in the game. | |

Super Not-Drowning Skills | |
Thunder Hoop (Video Game) / int_e5bb2929 | comment |
Super Not-Drowning Skills: Thunder Hoop can stay submerged underwater for extended periods of time, and even making his trademark "Yep! Yep! Yep!" roar every time he fires a shot at enemies. There are in fact entire levels set underwater and Thunder Hoop can move around or remain stationary for several minutes just fine. Justified since he's an artificial, lab-created human. | |

Battle Aura: Happens whenever Thunder Hoop charges himself when his power is at maximum, in both games, which coats him in a golden sphere of energy that damages everything in his way, though the sphere disappears once Thunder Hoop's power runs low. | |

Xenomorph Xerox: The Bass enemies are purple Xenos, complete with rounded, phallic heads and extended stinger tails. They're even hatched from fleshy eggs that opens up like petals, just like in the movies! (Though they're Born as an Adult immediately rather than having a chestburster-expy, and their eggs are considerably larger than those seen from the films.) | |
