Hammerfist is a side-scrolling beat 'em up video game developed by Vivid Image and released in 1990 for the Amiga, Atari ST, Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC and ZX Spectrum.

==Plot== In the year 2215 AD, the world is ruled by a corporation called Centro-Holographix ('Metro-Holographix' in some versions), which captures unwilling humans and replaces them with holographic versions that carry out its will. Two of the agents, Hammerfist and Metalisis, have malfunctioned and turned against Centro-Holographix, seeking to destroy it and liberate their original human forms. As part of the malfunction, the two holograms have been merged into a single being who can transform back and forth between their two forms at will. They initially escape from their storage pods in a laboratory at the bottom of the ocean and must fight their way out. They must then cross the ocean, battling a variety of undersea creatures as they go. Finally, Hammerfist and Metalisis reach a ruined city and penetrate the Centro-Holographix facility, confronting and eventually destroying the corporation's ruler, a being known as The Master. Hammerfist and Metalisis, separated into their original bodies, escape Centro-Holographix for good.
