Astro Boy: Omega Factor is a side scrolling action title for the Game Boy Advance. It adapts the 2003 version of Osamu Tezuka's character, casting the player as the robotic protagonist who seeks harmony between humans and machines.
Gameplay alternates between two primary modes. One involves ground based combat with limited flight, while the other shifts perspective to shooting sequences. These shooter sections vary, offering either free movement or more directed, forward scrolling paths.
Progression involves encountering characters from the series, which unlocks upgrades. This system, called the Omega Factor, allows for the enhancement of Astro Boy's various attacks, which include punches, laser beams, and rocket propelled maneuvers.
