Cartwright initially found inspiration for Megamanias gameplay from the arcade game Astro Blaster (1981). After completing a variation of the game, the team at Activision felt it needed a different form to separate itself from various space shooter games on the market, eventually leading to Activision's ad agency developing the food-induced nightmare theme. The game took nine months for Cartwright to develop.
