Voting Finished

The voting for the next Boss has been completed. Vinny Wins -_-;; Whenever I have some free time, I'll put together a Vinny Boss fight next =)

Free Game

No Caption Provided

or at least, free boss fight =P I did a quick and dirty game jam that I sort of posted updates on here.

It's my first time attempting to build a game out for distribution so I'm not entirely sure if it'll work and how it works on other people's comps. If it doesn't work, please let me know along with whatever errors you have. If it does work, drop me a note on what you think =)

Download Ver 1.24

Controls

Keyboard and 360 controller supported

Z(keyboard) or C(keyboard), X or B on controller to shoot.

X(keyboard) or A on controller to jump.

arrow keys or d-pad for movement.

down + jump to slide.

Enter or Start to skip.

I'm not sure if there's a download limit on dropbox, but that's how I'm sharing it for now. Enjoy!

No Caption Provided

Here is a vid of the game. I highly recommend you just play through it yourself since the entire thing is under 5 min but if you can't for whatever reason, you can still watch it here =P

Version Update Information Below

SPOILER WARNING: Click here to reveal hidden content.

If you've already installed, you must uninstall before installing the new version.

V1.07

lowered the low platforms a bit

V1.08

reduced lifetime of ryddok's bullets

V1.09

added start select arrow

V1.10

V1.11

fixed various bugs such as music continuing to play after ending and also being able to fire while READY is flashing

Added a SLIIIIIDEEEE!!!! Down + Jump!

V1.12

C button also fires weapon to allow both left/right combinations of jump/fire

V1.14

Balance changes to keep things more fair.

Ryddok no longer moves before the player can.

Humming birds further spread apart to allow dodging through any combination.

Boundaries changed to prevent extreme travel through walls for Ryddok.

Begun implementing basics of Vinny as a boss character

Added a select screen in which currently only Ryan is selectable.

V1.19

Quickly added a difficulty selection. You can now play the game on Easy. I'll prolly change the attack patterns a bit based on which difficulty is selected but for now, it just reduces the damage taken by Mega Man when hit.

Oh, good luck then =) The more the merrier. It uses Windows .net framework so I'm curious if that works on an emulated version of Windows. At this point I hope it's working because I'm not hearing any "it's not working" type things just yet. *crosses fingers*

Hmmm... I'll try it out on Tuesday or something. Got papers to write so I won't have time until then. But I sucked in the original 2D Megaman games so I'll probably get wrecked 5 times in a row, scream at the game and rage quit. Then tell you I hate it (because I suck).

Just tried one run, as usual not very good with platformer bosses, but I'm truly impressed. From what I can remember of NES Megaman, the feel is pretty much spot on; did you have some form of reference for movement and jumping speeds?

I found the collision detection to feel a bit off when jumping, though I'm not sure exactly what about it is rubbing me the wrong way. Maybe just that you can clip through platforms from beneath, which makes it harder to land a jump onto the smaller ones.

Fun stuff, I'll be playing more after I get some breakfast in me.

I used various references from people emulating speed runs to get down the movement as close to Megaman 2 as I possibly could. Down to the frame in most cases for things like edging =P Though, it's sorta impossible to really notice the nuance in a hectic boss fight.

The platforms I've got set up are all clippable from beneath. I could have made them solid and unclippable, but I figured I'd rather the player be more maneuverable since it's just one fight. I also toyed with a jump down through the platform thing but that actually made it too easy. A happy middle ground.

Thanks =)

Seeing that the entire experience is around 1~5 min long, you'll be rage quitting in record time =P

@Fobwashed: Had no problems on this end. Just opened the exe and it ran.

The game works well but something is a little big off when jumping on platforms.

Haven't beaten it yet but it'll give it another try in the morning.

I installed it and it installed fine and then I booted it up a little and didn't see any problems with it. 
Will have to give it an honest go later though because I'm on my way out the door but I just wanted to chime in and say that it installs and boots just fine.

Is there a way to get from the Game Over screen back into the game without restarting? Restarting every time is a bit of a hassle.

I'm not sure if this is a particularly difficult boss as far as Megaman bosses go, but I'm having a hard time with it. It's great fun, though, and the audio design seems spot-on.

I couldn't find a good sound byte for when he's summoning them but the AAAaauuughhh felt right. Unfortunately, only Davis is built since I wanted to do a jam rather than make an entire game =P

It'd take me a whole nother 30 minutes to add a retry rather than a restart =P Since most people will only be playing this thing like 3 or 4 times, I didn't think it was worth the extra time commitment =( Sorry~ I have to say, game is hella hard to play with a keyboard. Use a 360 controller if you've got a wired one handy. Very happy to hear you're enjoying it tho =D

EAT SHIT RYAN DAVIS!

Took me about 5 attempts to beat it, the hummingbirds seemed to be very unforgiving at times (I thought I would be safe to go under it but still hit anyway). But was great other than that, shame it's only one boss though :(.

Man, FUCK RYAN DAVIS.

Is this meant to be impossible? Do we need to cheese it somehow? Because, right now, I can get him down to maybe half life at best. It's nuts!

Seems to play fine, but it feels like I Wanna Be the Guy difficulty. And the lack of being able to retry just makes it even more rage-inducing. Pretty cool anyway.

This is tremendous for a couple of days work!

I don't think I'll ever beat it (seriously, fuck robotic Russian Ryan Davis), but I'm awful at 2D games that require swift, controlled movement so it was never to be anyway. The controls feel responsive and the sounds are fitting - I thought from the previews that the "uhs" were a bit much, but they're fine in-game.

I summon to cast the GB spotlight on this!

@Fobwashed: Am playing with a wired X360 controller, just not very proficient at fighting these bullet hell style bosses.

Would you be interested in releasing the source for this if you're not interested in working too much more on it? I haven't had Visual Studio installed for a long while since I'm trying to get into Unity, but it could be fun to try and expand on this a bit.

After playing this non-stop for about half an hour, I finally managed to beat it. 
The only real bug I found while playing was that before Mega Man has spawned, the firing sound still plays if you try to shoot. 
Other than that, the only things that bugged me were the fact that you had to restart the game every time you died, and that for the smaller platforms the collision felt off while jumping onto them from below, like the collider was too small on top of it. This could probably be alleviated by simply moving them down just a tiny bit.

Those were just some small annoyances though and overall it was very well put together. I would be overjoyed if this was developed into a full game, or at least just the boss fights for the other duders.  
You have any plans for releasing the source for this so other duders could keep working on it if you are going to move on to other projects?

I've been using a lot of XNA recently, and if I had to guess the error will be the Hi-Def incompatible graphics card one. Basically in XNA if you're developing for PC you can use the Hi-Def mode to give you access to some extra things, but it won't run on Xbox or older GPU's. Instead you need to go on your project properties and change the (render method I think?) to Reach. It's the first radial option under properties.

Also game looks pretty awesome. Thought it was a ROMhack for a moment, given its attention to detail.

Great video game duder. I, as usual, suck at Megaman games so i couldn't get Russian Ryan Davis's health down at all. All in all, amazing work!
