''[[GunNac]]'' is a [[Shoot'Em Up]] by [[Compile]] released for the NES in 1991.
 
The game's plot tells the story of a far-off artificial solar system named IOTA [[Incredibly Lame Pun|Synthetica]], which is being colonized by the people of Earth due to depleted resources. The real trouble begins when a wave of cosmic energy causes animals and even inanimate objects to come alive and start attacking the people. All is not lost, for the [[The Federation|Space Federation]] has enlisted the help of Gun Nac! Gun Nac's mission is to search to system's 7 planets for signs of hostile forces, perhaps even an [[Alien Invaders|invader]]...
 
While ''GunNac'' is fairly obscure, it is rather popular for its smooth gameplay, detailed graphics, and quirky setting. It also has an unusually high degree of customization.

'''Tropes Associated With Gun Nac'''
* [[1-Up]]: Not only provides an extra life, but it also doubles as a Wing attachment. Depending on whether or not the ship has a Wing attached, each 1-up token collected potentially allows Gun Nac to take up to two extra hits per game.
* [[Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever]]: And there are plenty of 50-foot whatevers to go around.
Line 21:
* [[God Mode]]: Non-Death.
* [[Homing Projectile]]: Weapon type 3 in Gun Nac's arsenal, as well as some of the enemies' attacks.
* [[Kill It with Fire]]: Weapon type 4.
** Many of the enemy craft in Area 2 use fire-based attacks.
* [[Made of Explodium]]: Everything.
* [[Making a Splash]]: The Type-W bomb fills the entire screen with a cascade of droplets, arguably making it the most effective of the 4 bombs.
