When performing the Hammer Drop, the user dives downwards with a burst of speed while Spin Jumping. During this, the user will lose most of their horizontal speed and leave afterimages of themself. When impacting the ground, the user will cause a shockwave.
In gameplay, the Hammer Drop can be used for several actions by Mighty. When he lands after performing a Hammer Drop, he can pierce through enemies and destroy those that are nearby. It can also make nearby floating Item Boxes fall to the ground, destroy crumbling platforms instantaneously, and open exclusive entrances. Depending on the Zone, the Hammer Drop can be used to pierce through surfaces in Flying Battery Zone that would normally require missiles or bombs to be destroyed; destroy wooden boxes, ice obstacles and the Shiversaw's saws in Press Garden Zone; and destroy the Beanstalks' heads in Stardust Speedway Zone Act 1. However, the Hammer Drop will be cancelled if Mighty lands on sharp obstacles, be spikes or buzzsaws (Which will be treated as if Mighty landed on the sharp obstacle with a normal Spin Jump, or if it's a standard set of spikes, it will be treated as if Mighty took damage, though he will not lose any possible Rings or Shield he might have), or on an oil-related surface (be either a slide or a sinking pool) in Oil Ocean Zone.
