Dark Man 1

the first of the four Dark Man robots created by Dr. Wily to assassinate Mega Man in Mega Man 5. Dark Man 1 is a tank-like model that moves with caterpillar threads instead of legs and is armed on both arms. As the first model, Dark Man 1 can be considered the prototype from the series.

Overview
General breakdowns of passive abilities, gimmicks, and their movement + health. Dark Man 1 has an odd gimmick of technically not being able to jump. Pressing jump boosts you in the air instead, using your shots, and consuming ammo.
