"Demolition Man" is a SNES game from 1996, loosely based on the movie with the same title, starring Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes (for some reason, I remembered it was Dennis Rodman; mayhap due to the hair colour, no clue). It's generally a side-scrolling shooter, with two top-down levels. I found it accidentally while browsing the SNES catalogue on my R36S. I played the first level for a bit, and it fell to my liking, so I returned to it this week.

Upon my return, I found out that the third option in the menu explains game mechanics, which turned out to be useful. John Spartan can run and shoot or you can stand shooting, an interesting distinction; then, you can throw some grenades. There is some amount of platforming. The pixel art is beautiful and works really well on a 3.5-inch screen. There is Stallone's likeness in the menu, but later it's gone. It's pretty much in line with how these games were done back then.
