Once we finish the robot master stages and we're working on the Wily stages, (basically when the game is almost done), I'll probably release a demo with just the intro level playable. What do you all think?

Because it's the point in development in which there is the least to adjust in terms of balance of the earlier stages?

For a second I thought it was watching teaser material for Megaman 11. D:

Seriously, though, it looks awesome and could probably easily fool people into thinking it was official.

Now, I've got a question here. The video. Are you actually using midis or are those just place-holder? I ask this because I think it'd make it more awesome if you could get some real 8-bit tunes in there. And it you're sticking with the NES Megaman soundtrack, it wouldn't be hard to get the music.

most likely, but it'd have to be converted to midi or other format compatible with Game Maker. Right now, it is both a placeholder and the actual music until I find something better.

Surprised I haven't updated this page with more videos, so I'll release some here that have been in the public eye for over a year now or so:

This game looks absolutely phenomenal design-wise.  It absolutely brims with creativity and love of the source material.  That being said, it looks a bit too hard for my blood.  Watching those videos, there are a lot of instances where complete and utter platforming perfection is required, lest you mistime a jump or get hit and suffer a fiery/spiky insta-death.  That in itself isn't a bad thing, of course.  There are plenty of players that love to play games that really put their skill to the test, such as this one, and it actually reminds me of a similar Japanese fangame, Rockman 4 Minus Infinity, and despite being difficult, the game doesn't seem to dissolve into a tedious affair of cheapness, unlike 99% of full length fangames out there.  You seem to know to give the player time to get used to a gimmick before throwing it into tougher situations, and you also seem to give the player enough time to react should they need to take sudden action.

 

Looks good!

You would be right. ALL OF MY TESTERS have agreed that it is the HARDEST Megaman game they have ever played, yet it is quite fair, despite being so brutal. I've played enough Mega Man to know the concept of introducing concepts to players before mixing things up for them. Furthermore, the Wily Skull Castle stages mixes things up without introducing things, because by now, all new concepts have been exhausted and its now time to start combining them in cruel ways I wouldn't normally have done in the main RM stages.

NOT YET RELEASED!!!!!


A fan-made Megaman game that brings back nostalgia memories of all the old classic Megaman games of the past in a new, more expansive way. Expect brand new level designs, weapon uses, boss AI routines and collectibles to find.

Story - While relaxing on a peaceful afternoon, Mega Man gets word that the ancient robot museum has been ransacked and precious copies of old Robot Masters are being stolen and revived to do battle once again! Mega Man teleports over to the museum to put a stop to this dastardly plan and find out who is behind this nefarious plot!

This game will features quite a few levels (20 to be exact) with 10 full Robot Masters to choose from initially, rather than the original number of 8. Features of this game will include:
-20 levels with 1 secret level included!
-3 rush upgrades: Rush Coil/Marine/Jet
-7 more upgrades to find that either increase your health per item, reduce damage, give you a one-shot invulnerability to spikes, let you exit a level early or slowly recover health and more!
-Tons of alternating and branching paths per level giving you full freedom how to best tackle any one level!
-3 Bounty Hunters who pop in randomly throughout the 10 Robot Master stages, its up to you to finish them off right then and there or fear facing them once again in the final stages where they will be harder!
-Classic movements including: jumping, firing, sliding, mega buster charging, etc.
