Platform game where you control a puppet who attacks by launching his detachable head in eight directions. Fire it at enemies, grab distant items, or latch onto HangMan points to pull yourself up ledges and drag platforms closer. Collect HeadCase power-ups that cycle through temporary head types—offensive ones let you shoot homing stars or vacuum the screen, support heads grant invulnerability or let you shrink into tight spaces. Most heads expire after a set time, though you can cancel early except for certain types like Pin Head. The story follows Headdy escaping an evil puppet king's army after being marked for destruction, then fighting through the king's minions and elite Keymasters while a jealous rival puppet tries sabotaging you. Includes one side-scrolling shooter stage with three unique head forms.
