Bomber Man (爆弾男 Bakudan Otoko) is a maze-based video game developed by Hudson Soft and released only for home computers. While it is often overlooked, it is a distinct title and the first entry in the Bomberman series. The MSX and ZX Spectrum versions were localized in Europe as Eric and the Floaters, due to concerns over the possibility of the game being associated with terrorist bombings occurring in the UK at the time.
The concepts seen in the computer game were expanded in the 1985 Family Computer video game Bomber Man which was conceived during a 72-hour crash programming session.
