Items & Weapons
BLAST-O-MATIC™: 100 TETRA-WATT BLASTER
Blasto's standard issue pistol, capable of burning a hole through anything living in one shot when fully charged. Power-ups increase firepower to 200 or 300 Tetra-Watt versions, and it can be enhanced with various weapon add-ons.
ATOMDICER™: RAPID FIRE PLASMATIK
This powerful add-on fires rounds faster than any other gun, making it a perfect weapon against groups of enemies.
KRISPI 500™: FLAMESPITTER
Holding the special weapon button unleashes a white-hot plume of fiery death. Double-tapping releases an exploding ball of fire that can torch groups of aliens.
NUKE-O-MATIC™: ATOMSCATTER 9000
This weapon fires a nuclear projectile that destroys anything within its destruction radius, requiring Blasto to maneuver away before detonation.
LOKENBURN™: HEATSEEK 360
A BLAST-O-MATIK™ add-on that fires guided missiles at nearby aliens, locking onto targets and raining down slime-searing explosives.
XENOMATIC™: INSTANT ALIEN GENERATOR
This add-on shoots out aliens, potentially putting Blasto in jeopardy due to overpopulation.
FISSION™ "ONE SHOT" MEGA BLAST
A rare weapon capable of taking out anything in "one shot," guaranteed to toast everything in its path.
CHILCO 350™: ICE-BLASTER
This weapon has a short-range attack that sprays ice bolts to freeze and immobilize enemies, and a long-range charged ice-bolt attack that freezes anything within its exploding radius.
INVINCIBILITY
This pick-up gives Blasto's suit a gold metallic sheen, protecting him from enemy fire and attacks, though he can still be killed by falling.
INVISIBILITY
Blasto becomes translucent and completely invisible to enemies, allowing him to avoid attack, but firing reveals his location.
KAY EFCEE
Kay Efcee is an 8-foot tall, blue Zenubian Scuddlewomp that Blasto can ride to jump higher and farther, though it cannot swim or climb well.
HEALTH
Health pick-ups resemble vitamin pills and come in green (restores 50%), blue (restores 100%), and red (restores 150% and increases total health storage capacity) varieties.
EXTRA LIVES
Red extra life pick-ups reward one life, while blue pick-ups grant several lives.
