What's funny is that they gave you a brief hint at what they were "working on next" with the "Megaman a" mini game in ZX Advent, even!

Ladies and gentleman, Mighty No 5
While it's an excellent design, it could easily work as a Robot Master. I would've preferred they started of this one:
They also made the excellent MM9 with Inafune. Believe in the dream team.intl creates also did the zero series on gba
Really? Why?
If I was stumping up the full 40k or 2.5M, then yes, I'd agree - but I'm not. I'm stumping up a value that is adjusted based on how much I wish to see the final product and how much faith I have in the production team to produce it. The only way the target requested would affect that would be if I felt the target in question was too low (and therefore it raises alarm bells about the budgeting and planning of the product, in turn affecting how much faith I have in their ability to produce it.
The number that matters for me is the size of my pledge, *not* the amount they're requesting. And I can and will adjust that based on how my perception of the project changes over time.
I think you'd be surprised at how few of those there are.
Part of me wants a benevolent older robot model working behind the scenes of the storyline, only ever seen in shadow, with a very familiar silhouette...

The point is to make an IP he and his company owns.

Gonna take this to the next logical step X > Vanilla.
If anything make it optional/customizable for multiple playthroughs.
I'm also in strong support of a Zero style character if only because it'd mean that if he's an alt character with his own campaign, this game would automatically be the Megaman 11, Megaman X9 and Megaman Zero 5 (thanks to Inticreates) I always wanted! :lol
If this game is basically Classic/Vanilla's charm with X/Zero series gameplay speed and level design, it'd be perfect.
Going to have to agree with the last few posters that Dash > Slide. My biggest question about this game is the mobility. I've played 9 & 10 but I missed the high speed mobility of the X and Zero series. I really hope this game plays and moves more like The X and Zero series and less like the Classic series.

Just put in 60 bucks towards the physical box/etc. I had a question, will I be charged before October 1st? I ask because of something a bit silly, but during October to December, my credit card will have 5 percent cash back on Amazon purchases. Figured I could try to get a small kick back in the process but, my Amazon CC is 3 percent by default so it would be smarter to use that if i will be charged prior to October 1st.

Charged after the kickstarter ends, not a day before.

Really hoping it gets to consoles. Only what, like a little over $600k to go?
Controlled fine for what it was, but I far prefer the mobility of x and zero to classic mega man. Nothing wrong with the way mm9 and 10 control, I just prefer the way the series evolved and found it difficult to go back to ye olde ways.
I'm probably the only one who adapts to different play styles right away. I never had any trouble switching between series. lol
Agreed. Only MMBN was little off putting that was tobe expected.
Fake Edit: Oh and Legends. That glorious fucking series.

Nothing about Legends was off putting. Sir, those are fighting words!
I can switch. The controls were fine and designed around what you had. I just prefer the controls of the x and zero series.

Same. I prefer having the slide, but I'm fine without. I like the dash too, but that seems to suit the feel of the later series' better. I wouldn't like the dash at all in the original series. These abilities had a noticeable effect on level design.
He'd better get that cramp for us.
I believe its proper signed, coz in one of the options they mentioned adding more of that tier as much as possible without breaking Inafune's hand

Think that was referring to the hand-drawn sketch tier ($500 / limited 200).
He could do it over 2 years.

You know exactly how I feel about that, qq-chaaaaan. I'm incredibly fond of the slide, so I absolutely missed the additional finesse and flexiblity Mega Man started having in MM3/4. It made the games faster-paced and evasion felt paced well with parts of the level design.
And you and I have already had conversations about the charge shot. Would be better if it were more balanced and didn't overpower the weapons, but I appreciate the mechanic.

Oh, I was more than fine with it. The stages were constructed in a way that you never felt like you needed a 'speed up' type of move. The level design was incredible, not one single dull moment.
Yeah, I really wish they brought back the slide. It also helped me against boss fights. No idea why they thought it was necessary to remove that. But like I said, the games still controlled perfectly fine.
Charge shot I can live without easily, but that's a rant for another day.
Yeah, he needs to get on it now!
