Vectorman was considered the answer to Nintendo's Donkey Kong Country at the time, as they both used graphical tricks to show graphics beyond what the console was thought capable of. The original name of the villain, Warhead, was Raster (as in raster graphics, the opposite of vector graphics). This gives the game a smooth, computer-generated feel. Vectorman uses pre-rendered 3D models in its level and character designs. Because all the other Orbots are controlled by Warhead (Vectorman having not been affected because he was away), Vectorman takes it upon himself to destroy the errant orbot and restore peace to Earth. As he lands on Earth after his last trip, he finds chaos and confusion. He declares himself ruler of Earth, and begins preparing to execute any humans who dare return to their planet.Įnter Vectorman, a humble orbot in charge of cleaning up toxic sludge by simply discharging it into the sun. Raster, a high-level orbot who watches Earth through a planetwide computer network, is accidentally attached to a working nuclear missile by a lesser orbot and goes insane, becoming an evil dictator named Warhead. They leave mechanical "orbots" to clean up the mess they made on Earth through littering and pollution. In 2049, the human population of Earth embarks on a migratory voyage to try to colonize other planets. It was also released on the digital distribution service Steam as part of the "SEGA Genesis Classics Pack" and as a standalone title. Vectorman was added to the Wii Virtual Console on February 27, 2007, in Japan and April 5, 2007, in Europe, and in North America on September 22, 2008.
