Long time no see people.

Just a little something I've been tinkering with. After the release of Megaman 9, some people have been murmuring wishes about a 16-bit sequal to the X games. Figured I'd see if I could make a mockup that would be convincing. The palette is extracted directly from the SNES games (of course, the quality of the reference varied in quality, so don't take my word on that one.) I went fairly loose on the first one and followed the 8x8 grid a bit more on the second. I know it's not perfectly within the restrictions, as I'm sure someone will point out sooner or later.

Goal was to use the same premise as the SNES games but do it better. Put some references in to both new and old games. The contrast turned out pretty harsh, but I'll admit, I like it when it's scrolling in paralax. We'll see if I ajust that later.

Was wondering if I should try and fool anyone with this, but nah. Not that cruel I guess.

Cheers

 ah man, how did i miss this

great as always, snake! backgrounds are especially delicious <3


dusanvf (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/12/2009 8:29:36 AM

I love the Backgrounds, but the characters no so much, Mega Man looks skinny. Good work though!


dpixel (Level 6 Major) at 6/11/2009 10:37:04 PM

That background is amazing, it just makes everything stand out perfectly.  And OMG those clouds!


Noveroth (Level 2 Flatfoot) at 6/11/2009 10:26:04 PM

I don't like how X looks...

But other than that... Holy shit this is amazing.


Levi (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/11/2009 5:23:32 PM

Dude... I WAS JUST telling my friend today that they should do a MM9 of the X series... Bring it back in the same vein as MMX1.


newDAN (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/10/2009 10:25:37 AM

Very, very good job!


Badassbill (Level 9 Necrophiliac) at 6/10/2009 6:06:09 AM

For me, the top background is better than the rest of the graphics combined.

Very nice.


[Ryan_6666] (Level 3 Stalker) at 6/9/2009 7:05:29 PM

amazing work, only thing that would make it better would be moving the bg behind zero so he's in front of one of the panels as hes a bit hard to read against the flowers atm

mmx was the first console game i ever played and i still wish i hadn't let my parents sell it :(   absoloutley love the background in the first scene


Adarias (Level 8 Brigadier General) at 6/9/2009 1:19:12 PM

Bam!

A little bit of trouble with characters separating from the background but how bad can I nitpick one of the best peices I've seen from anyone?  Not much!


Stratto (Level 4 Mercenary) at 6/9/2009 1:09:10 PM

Backgrounds are amazing!


Shawn (Level 8 Cannibal) at 6/9/2009 11:48:14 AM

omg. this is perfect ;_;


crab2selout.png (Level 3 Private Eye) at 6/9/2009 11:14:49 AM

Very nice. The style was nailed and I like the little subtle updates and details you gave MM and Z.  This feels like the sequel to MMX3 from an alternate timeline where cone feet were never invented. 6stars, but I wouldn't mind seeing the contrast on the background stuff in the Z screen brought down a tad.


tripnfelt (Level 4 Shichikyu) at 6/9/2009 10:22:36 AM

This is very impressive.

I like the background of the top screen most.


green_bald (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/9/2009 8:43:22 AM

this is freaking awesome.


Dirteater (Level 1 Depressed) at 6/9/2009 6:41:40 AM

I may have dribbled a bit whilst staring at all the little details and things going on in this :P Such amazing work ^-^


Mathias (Level 2 Kukyu) at 6/9/2009 6:39:27 AM

GRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH


monotov (Level 5 Sniper) at 6/9/2009 6:37:01 AM

Backgroud is very well made.


zeroex (Level 1 Thug) at 6/9/2009 6:30:31 AM

Fantastic, man! I just think that the sprites could be a little bit better (but they're really nice), except for this, the scenery, enemies, even the lifebar... perfect!

This goes to my favorites without a doubt

oh, sorry for my bad english :P


Nika (Level 2 Quiet One) at 6/9/2009 6:20:07 AM

Wow, fantastic.


Darth Mandarb (Level 8 Brigadier General) at 6/9/2009 6:00:49 AM

Very nicely done!  I can hear the SNES music in my head!


Reo (Level 11 Sensei) at 6/9/2009 5:52:11 AM

You're back!!

And you're awesome as usual!!


politopo (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/9/2009 5:50:09 AM

I want to play it...

oh nostalgia...


son.off (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/9/2009 5:29:55 AM

Oo, man you are a bad person, I so addicted to this game, and he ta so perfect, more perfect so I started to search it on net for low-lo
very, very good


Squirrelsquid (Level 4 Shichikyu) at 6/9/2009 5:10:38 AM

Well, this has to be some of the sweetest MM mockups ever. Funny with the neo arcadia sign. ( seeing as it is just being built )


chess (Level 8 Shodan) at 6/9/2009 4:09:00 AM

8 points... 


RollerKingdom (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/9/2009 3:33:46 AM

This is very well done, loving the details!!


Jim16 (Level 3 Private Eye) at 6/9/2009 2:14:26 AM

 Yeah, this is something great! 
I love the background work, mainly on the first one, Thats not to say that the greenhouse thing isn't awesome.
I'm no fan of Zero though, the reds in the SNES colours there don't seem as vibrant as the blues.

 

Again this is amazing


Elk (Level 6 Serial Killer) at 6/9/2009 2:09:07 AM

Looks cute Snakee :D


.Anubis. (Level 3 Hatchet Man) at 6/9/2009 1:39:12 AM

amazing

 

just..amazing

 

inb4 retards saying this is a rip. 


TomF (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/9/2009 1:07:18 AM

You just made my day, Snake. <3

Surprisingly, I quite enjoy the contrasty background. I don't remember Megaman games being as action heavy/cluttered as something like Contra or MetalSlug, so I don't think that background is much of a problem here.


Mykola (Level 2 Flatfoot) at 6/9/2009 1:06:58 AM

fantastic job, follows the original style so wel, extracting the palette definitely helped. also the harsh contrast isnt a shortcoming IMO, the megaman games were always known exactly for that


Satsume (Level 7 Underboss) at 6/9/2009 1:05:49 AM

good piece,i like! 


Dr D (Level 2 Kukyu) at 6/9/2009 12:32:54 AM

I have a feeling this won't be the only place we'll be seeing this picture around the internetz.


ramazing (Level 3 Sergeant) at 6/9/2009 12:16:57 AM

hey, that looks great!


DJD (Level 4 Button Man) at 6/8/2009 11:53:29 PM

beautiful, as to be expected from you. The 2nd mockup, in terms of tiles/bg, reminds me of the metroid gameboy games. That may be due to my limited knowledge of non 8bit megaman games, but I see it and like it nonetheless. good job!


PanicBomber (Level 5 Killer Klown) at 6/8/2009 11:33:18 PM

yeah seems very nice.


Lollige (Level 11 Psychopath) at 6/8/2009 11:03:54 PM

 Top-notch? It is Snake!

It is beautiful stuff, with those higly saturated colors!

I however do have one critique, and that is that Zero does not stand out that much to the background. He blends quite a lot. However, in animated form I suppose that would not be much op a problem.

I'd be glad to see you submit even more here :)


xXHalfieXx (Level 4 Lieutenant) at 6/8/2009 10:41:38 PM

Wow! This is top-notch!


Dr D (Level 2 Kukyu) at 6/8/2009 10:02:15 PM

I just had to leave a comment. Great work.

Nice to see you here again.

Like you said though, there's a little too much contrast in the background, against the sprites, I think, but it shouldn't be a problem in a realistic situation, where everything is moving.

My favorite part would have to be the plants in the second screen, excellently rendered.


MrWeirdGuy (Level 2 Peon) at 6/8/2009 9:56:42 PM

This is the first piece I've added to my favorites.  And I've been here almost 5 years, so that's saying a lot.  Definitely the best mockup screen I've ever seen.


Blob (Level 1 Intern) at 6/8/2009 9:44:20 PM

Leak it into the interwebs and it'll catch on like wildfire. :3

I think it looks great and it has the same wonderful contrast to previous Megaman X games that Megaman 9 had with previous Megaman games. Good work.
