Special Abilities[]
GigaGuy starts with his GIGA GUSTER, a ranged weapon based on the Mega Buster from Mega Man. He only has one weapon slot occupied by GIGA GUSTER, and therefore cannot pick up any other weapon.
The GIGA GUSTER fires small yellow projectiles with a short cooldown. It can also be charged to fire a bigger, blue projectile which deals more damage and pierces zombies. Firing the GIGA GUSTER does not cause fatigue or deplete ammo, meaning it can be used inifnitely.
The GIGA GUSTER's projectiles and charging effect are both sources of light.
Trivia[]
- The GIGA GUSTER is functionally identical to the Mega Buster from Mega Man 4 and up, right down to the appearance of the shots.
- The ammo of the weapon is called "LEMONBALL", a reference to how the uncharged shots in classic Mega Man games had an appearance similar to that of a lemon, and were commonly referred to as lemons as a joke.
- The description "is a super fighting robot" is a reference to the opening theme of the Mega Man animated cartoon, the most popular lyric being "Super fighting robot, Mega Man!"
- In the Console releases (Switch, XBOX, PS) he is one of the few Rare Characters that do not have their original sprite color.
