Mega Man S
A downloadable game for Windows
Mega Man S is an unofficial recreation of NES Mega Man built on the Game Maker Studio 1 engine. It's about as authentic as I could manage, for something I made 4 years ago for a school project. I later updated it a little bit to add a few amenities and fix some bugs when I shared it with a good friend of mine who wanted to speedrun it.
It has one level, in which your goal is to collect 4 of the items as fast as possible, making efficient use of Mega Man's movement scheme of running, jumping, shooting, and sliding, to do so.
Bare bones as it is, it's the first game project that felt like I was able to fully complete it, probably in no small part due to the fact that it had a due date on it and by then it had to be all done. Some elements were scrapped or unused due to the time limit, but I'm nonetheless proud that for a short demo it was as feature complete and accurate to the original as I could manage.
(it goes without saying, frankly, but. I have no affiliation with Capcom, I don't own Mega Man, or any of its assets, and this game is only available for free, because I legally cannot and will not sell a product containing their copyrighted material. Basically they could take this down at any time and I'd have to be like "yeah" and do it. Not that I think they necessarily will, but. They do have the right. I hope they don't, and I'm pretty sure Capcom tends to be chill about Mega Man fan projects, but. Anything could happen. Additionally, I think the ingame text font I used is the one from Cave Story+, so. I figure that's probably copyright of Nicalis. I'm not sure that they'd care much about that in this instance, though. It's just a pixel text font anyway, and there's only so many ways to make those, at a certain point. Anyway, that's all. You know how it is with fan games.)
