@@ScalesviJi I don't think that's the case. The reason why this game is taking a lot of time it's because they have started the development from the ground when they switched to the Haxe programming language, which offers a lot of portability compared to the previous development kit they were using.
I can't believe this isn't a professional release. The quality of everything, from the sound to soundtrack to art to story and writing, is top notch. VERY impressive, I'm glad this randomly showed up on my feed!
@@whirl3690 I can be a professional programmer and have a non-commercial independent project I'm doing by myself because I want to. That doesn't make my project less professional just because I'm not making revenue. As I said, two different things.
This looks amazing! I've been seeing your development of this game for years and it seems a lot has been paying off from what I'm seeing. I can't wait until this is finished and play it! Thanks for all the hard work you and anyone else involved with this project are doing and continue to do the best for this!
dude for me, i don't think that he will release the game cuz is making 14 years i guess? and he still making the game, for me he never will release the game : is just my opinion
@@galaxyDARY I wonder how many people literally died over the many years they were waiting for this. Kinda sad they were not even given the opportunity to play even a demo, alpha or beta version of it, while all of this content was consistently flashed at them. Honestly terrible IMO. There is literally no reason those people weren't given the chance in the past 14 years, who now are dead.
@@RedHairdoI’ve got a bundle of buddies that wanted to play this who are no longer here. Was just thinking this same thought. And will i still be here to see this playable? Crazy.
The thumbnail is so beautiful.. it makes me belive that the game is actually completed, but i've been watching this game grow along the years and cannot wait to play once it's completed!!
I mean if you see the streams on twitch, you pretty much played the whole game like really, the game is finished to an estimate of 70-80%, a 10% would be to complete the last level and that other 20% would be the final stages and final bosses, from which they've shown nothing but the sillouhette of each "corrupter" or something like that. but TL,DR: game's almost finished
The music itself seems to have improved a great deal since they first started this one off. It really *feels* like an SNES era Capcom soundtrack, which is not quite the vibe I had back in...2013? 2009? How long have they been working on this?
@@algo2002odgbruh how tf would it be fake it's RIGHT there 🤦♂️. And yeah it's taking forever. This is an unofficial fangame with an insane amount of polish. That's gonna take a LONG time
@@algo2002odgIts a fan game. It has no "date of release" when people who are making this are doing it on their free time and not getting paid for it. The fan game's luxury, not necessity.
@@DekkarJr , I would actually like to have the ability to have this game worked on even more so that the areas that are from previous Mega/Rock Man X games, as well as enemies, sub-bosses, and bosses, can be put into this game, and maybe a few brand new sub-bosses as well. I also want a playable Axl, Layer, Palette, and Alia as well, as having multiple unique characters, and the things that I had mentioned, would all make this game have a LOT of replay value, and even more so with special armors that they can all have as well. Finally, although I would not consider this game as a Mega/Rock Man X9, I WOULD hope that Capcom green lights this game, as well as allows it to be made, as it would be a multi-platform hit, as well as a damn successful foray into the Metroidvania genre for this franchise from Capcom.
@@paxhumana2015 Axl isn't really possible because this game is basically an alternate timeline. The split is Megaman X5, since this game is sort of supposed to replace Megaman X6. So Axl doesn't exist, the stuff with the nightmare virus hasn't happened, and neither have the incidents with Red Alert or Lumine. I wasn't a fan of X6 and felt X7 was really flawed, so I'm not exactly shedding tears for the idea of this game replacing them in the timeline. Even if said timeline is entirely fanmade. I will mourn for the Jakob Elevator, though, because I really liked that tune.
i've said something similar on the video that was just the intro stage, but i have to say it again: this is the most lore-accurate representation of X i've ever seen, moreso than the actual canon. as far as i'm concerned, this game should be considered canon. hearing the other characters refer to X as captain X, seeing him lead and fight alongside them, this is such a perfect representation of everything we've been told X is supposed to be. we're told *and* shown here who X is and i really can't get enough of the way he's handled here. he used to be one of my favorite characters when i was younger and this approach is really tapping into that again. this is incredible
Yeah, X gets treated as a buck private across most of the series when he even used to lead the Maverick Hunters in the second game. You can feel the RESPEC from here, he's a high-ranking officer and treated as such. X is written as the worrying and carying yet brave and fierce character he is. I love when that soldier asks if they're all going to die and he says "No one is going to die today. Get to the escape pods" and then just goes to the core like a boss. Probably the best writing for X we have seen since MHX.
Yeah, I absolutely adore how X is written here. He's just the compassionate, heroic, and just robot that he's supposed to be around him, and I just love how he's written. Very excited to see Zero's writing here, too.
Yeah, I absolutely adore how X is written here. He's just the compassionate, heroic, and just robot that he's supposed to be around him, and I just love how he's written. Very excited to see Zero's writing here, too.
I've been following this fan game since its very inception back when I was in college...around 10 years? Oh man, time is weird lol. To see it like this, leaves me speechless. It was basically an idea when I first came across it, just music tracks Dominic Ninmark scored most of (that got me hooked to this game). Now it's just about fully fleshed out and it's just...spectacular. You guys haven't cut any corners whatsoever with this and it shows in spades. I can only offer my sincerest thank you and my absolute respect for continuing this project, no matter the length it took to get to where it is now. I look forward to the day it's fully released to experience it for ourselves. That said, if Capcom decided to pick this up as an official title to the X line up, that would be a dream come true I would imagine!
I remember back when capcom decided to pick up Street Fighter X Mega Man as an official game. The game was being developed as a fan game, and instead of capcom issuing a cease and desist, they hired the guy to complete it. That’d be amazing if capcom does the same with this. This game deserves the worlds eyes on it.
@@8-bitBishop hopefully they don't shut down the project, since they're mostly publishers for games rn, i would be shocked If they actually don't put an end to it. It's a pretty great effort for the game to get this far in 10 years.
14 years (based on when the first Corrupted video was posted) later and still goin strong. Respect the dedication to this game, I'm still as excited to play it now as I was when I first discovered this in high school back in 2008
The addition of Iron Horn is really cool. I problem I have with the original X/Zero series is how all Mavericks based on animals are evil/ turn evil in the games. Seeing an animal reploid who is unambiguously good is a breath of fresh air.
Agreed, thought it was cool when X and Zero interacted with Storm Eagle and such before they became mavericks in Day of Sigma, cool to see more like this in MMXC.
Well. The idea with the Mavericks. They don't turn evil out of the blue. Most of them are infected by a virus that reprograms them. Most cases against their will. The Main exception being the repliforce. They had Sigma Minions infiltrated in their army. So is a 50/50.
@@DanielAyy in the X1 manga Zero and Storm Eagle were also buddies/friendly rivals in that, and Armored Armadillo just lived by samurai Bushido so he had to honor Sigma and challenge X. It was a great manga for a game adaptation for sure, I prefer it too when the Mavericks aren't just mindless bosses to kill 👍
Damn, the developer did an unbelievably great job with this. The original Mega Man X has been one of my all time favorite games since I was 8, I'm 34 now, and I still love to play it. But this... This thing is just incredible. The level of detail, the action, music, everything about this is just awesome.
Man this might be my most anticipated game of all time. Sometimes it's hard to believe just because of all the years that have gone by, but you guys really have been working hard all this time and it DEFINITELY shows. Just gorgeous, creative, fluid and awesome from top to bottom.
It's such a minor detail but I love how when you leave the base, the other hunters help you clear out some of the enemies at the entrance. Small things like this really bring the Maverick Hunters alive since up until now you only ever really saw X and Zero doing everything.
@@cloudycloud7666 Pointless as it may seem, little details like that count a little bit towards world-building, IMHO. Sure, they might have basic AI, but at least they're taking a more proactive role instead of merely waiting to be rescued, like in past games. Yes, the Hunters are stranded on an unknown island, where the Mavericks have taken control and thoroughly wish to destroy them, but even though the SA Hunters X and Zero will be the main offence, the rest of the Hunters won't stay idly by and leave them to do all of the work, at least this time around.
@@cloudycloud7666 Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but I'll indulge you a little. A basic story usually involves a protagonist (or a small band of them) fighting against an antagonist (or several), in pursuit of a goal, lofty or otherwise. But it's not always just their story alone. Even though NPCs (non-player characters) usually get relegated to background duty, being nothing more than just means for either idle talk or random missions / fetch quests, sometimes even they have their own stories to tell that could provide the hero(es) with more ideas on how to gain more ground in the main quest, or perhaps the NPCs might offer a certain degree of direct (or even indirect) assistance to stave off the enemies ahead. And that's only a small portion of world-building, IMHO. I haven't gotten into subjects like a realm's lore, though. But I would recommend that you play games like CrossCode, by Radical Fish. There's some interesting aspects to it, and I would like to see similar aspects in this game, despite it being a Rockman / Mega Man game.
I was like 14/15 years old when I first hear of this fangame, now I'm 27 and can't wait to play it. It seems absolutely great in every single part of it. Thank you for such hard work.
@@mo514 Yes, it started on 2009, I was 14 years old at that time. Back then it looked like another rom-hack of MMX3, yet with the passing of time it got more ambitious and now it looks like a brand new game, even using other engine and creating mechanics just for the game
@@niczvr we all only find anything by "luck". So much stuff exists out there from before we were alive and even coming out while we still exist that it's impossible to experience it all. So just enjoy the things you can find that make you happy.
I'm 45 years old, and this is the first time in years that a game has truly impressed me. Watching this gameplay, it's clear that this is professional and meticulously organized work. The leadership behind this project is outstanding, and the entire team feels like a dream team. This is the first game in years that I'm genuinely excited to await. The last time I felt this way was for Final Fantasy X on the PS2. The art style, music, and gameplay are all reminiscent of MegaMan X. Wow. Thank you for this amazing teaser experience.
Dear MMXC team, hear me out - you all are breathtaking, and what are you doing is amazing - so please don't stop, continue working on this masterpiece!
DEAR MMXC TEAM YALL NEED TO WORK FASTER IF YOU WANT END THIS ONCE FOR ALL GOOD BUT LET THE PRODUCT POLISED ENOUGH AND KEEP IN CHECK THE UPDTAES FASTER QUICKER STRONGER BEEEETTTTTTERRR!
Been following this since 2009... every now and then I'm like "just release it already" and then he goes and drops a video like this and I'm like "okay I've waited this long, what's another 3-4 years for perfection"
Big same. I'm like, I legit can't wait, but at the same time, it's been so long, it's like, man, more than a decade, but at this point, I don't care how long it takes; when it releases, it'll literally be perfection.
Having the boss attack throughout the level, like you did with the tentacles in older clip, is such a good idea. Really adds to the world building. Without the MB restriction of a SNES cart, you can go ham with a bunch of unique assets and animations.
Dude, this is f**king amazing. You nailed the MegaMan X feel, Gameplay, Music, story, art direction, music, sound, and innovation. Please keep up the amazing work so we can all play your masterpiece one day.
I strongly disagree with this statement when great fan projects from all over exist, from Mega Man Maker to the many projects being made on Megamix engine, to the likes of PureSabe's romhacks. that's not even taking into account games like 20XX and the like taking up the mantle. If anything, Megaman X Corrupted is a bit of a meme because of the absurdly long dev cycle.
So many new things, animations, sprites, what a way to start the new year, god bless you JKB, you didn't just make my day, you made my year already. You didn't have to go this hard, but you did, and I hope everyone here appreciates that as much as I do.
What a perfect way to start off 2023! This game looks almost flawless! Definitely will be the best and most replayable Megaman game of all time! 🏆 (Edit) : Adding Chill Penguin to the lore was a beautiful touch and callback to the X games! This is amazing!
that weapons factory stage is THE most dangerous yet fun place to work in xD "Elevators? We dont have any... what you do is ride that missile to the floor you need to go to and just jump before impact!" Also, THIS is next level fan game! Amazing! Good job on this!
The way you actually clear a path and then they follow you helping you was pretty insane. Everything clearly on point with the original with an added touch of polish but not enough to take away from the experience. This is masterful, this is all I ever really want from my ol' favorite series' like Megaman, Castlevania, Final Fantasy etc.
Why ruin the megaman x core gameplay and make it a metroidvania, it makes ZERO sense. If he like X make an X game, if you like Metroidvania make a Metroid game. Not this retarded Frankedstein
The level design is no joke. This game is been made for true Megaman X players because after watching this video y realize the difficulty is really high. Awesome work!
Love how you've built a metroidvania world and yet it still feels very much like Mega Man X. I also like how Puffer was involved in the level even before you meet him.
You started working on this in what, 2009? 14 years, and it's finally looking like it's nearly finished. Praying for a 2023 release, even if it's in December I know I'm dedicating hella time to play and finish this.
If he can get Capcom to get on board and allow a Kickstarter for this game, I’d gladly shell out $100+ each for a PS5 and a Switch Version (Both Collector’s Edition).
PASS THE WORD MY HOMIE THE NEED TO END THE PROJECT MORE QUICKER THAN BEFORE CAPCOM DIDN'T SAY NOTHING BECAUSE MUST HAVE SEEN POTENTIAL ONE THISB GAME!!!@@
I gotta hand it to you JKB. The level of artistry on display here is utterly fantastic. The sprite work, the word design, the cohesion is incredible. I can't wait to binge this!
You know, 14 years ago we didn't had any of the eight mavericks bosses in their fully completed state. But now, thanks to the effort of our fellow devs and the feedback of us the fans. We are glad to give a very good welcome to jkb and its years of work ✨
Este fangame solo se puede describir en una palabra: HERMOSO. Se nota demasiado el cariño, dedicación y esfuerzo que le tiene a este juego. Es justo lo que los fanáticos de Mega Man estábamos esperando en un juego, específicamente de la saga X. Estoy impaciente por poder jugarlo. Gracias por crear Mega Man X Corrupted, te aseguro que muchos admiramos y respetamos tu trabajo. Sigue así.
@Conrado Abarca almenos es jugable y se ve bien bonito Se nota el esfuerzo que hacen para pulir las múltiples mecánicas. Trata de ser como un Castlevania symphony of the nigth.
Watching this live was a blast. Everyone keeps screaming for a release date, but with one person working on this, I can wait for something good to turn up.
We waited more than ten years for it, whats a few more years? Its not like Capcom is doing anything good with the franchise, lets all just be glad that some fellow megaman x fans took it on theirselves to make something for us and lets be honest here this looks more than amazing. It has surpassed the its just a "fan game" capcom can eat their hearts out
This looks incredible. The music, the sprites, the environments and enemies, it all looks so damn good. This is shaping up to be the best Megaman X game ever.
The sheer love and effort put into this is enough to make me include it as an official X game in my head. There's more love here than Capcom has shown Megaman in decades. It's the first game in god knows how long to make me feel like a kid in the 90's again.
I love this and thank you for years of hard work. Incredible! The only thing I wish you hadn't changed is Strike's dialogue. In earlier videos, it seemed to showcase his personality a little. Now he's just spouting old comic book villain lines, "YoU hAVe tO dEFeat mE oR eVerYOne dIEs lololol" In the older versions, he began with: "So this is the legendary Maverick Hunter, X. I was wondering when you'd finally arrive." Strike's anticipation is palpable. He's aware of X's storied reputation, almost is if he'd studied it, yet remains arrogant about the prospect of fighting. The remark is jeering (about time you got here), a little admiring, and impatient. Then X says, "I assume you're the one behind this?" and Strike goes: "Maybe. Maybe not." like he could care less about a plan or strategy, he's just burning to fight a legend. "What matters is you're here and I finally get to PLAY with you." He's definitely horny to fight X. In fact, Strike has so much detachment from anything but his desire to challenge X he doesn't even remember / care to give his own name. Now instead, we get: "Hullo X, I'm Strike. Here's my plan." then he proceeds to explain what we would've seen with our own eyes. It just makes Strike--who I initially gauged to be a narcissistic psychopath---into a grab bag whatever villain. I'm not saying the original dialogue didn't borrow elements from other, well known tropes but at least it wasn't so flatline as this. I liked the older version of Plasma Puffer's dialogue as well. He's being coy (ba dum tss!) and makes a stupid pun, to which X just sort of stares at him "....." I thought it was funny. Its almost like X was thinking: "Ok wow. This guy has definitely shit his circuits... Time for shooting." But with the new dialogue we get an attempted therapy session? C'mon man. Revert to the older dialogue, please :-D it had more personality.
THIS is what Capcom should have given years ago! This is a master class in everything I could have ever wanted in a MMX game. Every detail has been fined tuned to be amazing, you can see and feel the amount of work you and the team have put into this game. From combat to music everything sings to the style of the team and the hard hours put into this. Keep up the great work and keep working hard, I happily await the day this done so that I can stream this to my viewers and play it for absurd amount of hours on and off stream.
@@virtualpellot933 that was never claimed by Capcom, and while it's true they had the franchise abandoned for almost 8 years, after the Mighty N9 kickstarter hit (and game flop), they released the great Mega Man 11, the Legacy collections, the asian marked focused X DiVE, and according Rockman Corner, Capcom is working on a new release for the 35th anniversary.
Absolutely do NOT release this until you feel that it is ready! Supreme love, care, and detail of this caliber cannot be rushed. Also kudos to your sound designer. I love how it mixes (at least to my ears) the best parts of the X1 and X3 sound styles to astounding effect.
@@asmith9554 Unless you are assuming that they'll somehow receive one I've seen nor heard of any C&D over this game from Capcom. Capcom is usually fairly relaxed about people making fan content of their IPs. Unless they are making their own title they let people create as they please and outside of the abysmal Mega Man X Dive they couldn't give a hoot about MMX (sadly) so its free publicity for an IP as far as Capcom is probably concerned with it.
They shut that one down because they literally were planning to remake RE2 themselves. They DID assist in some capacity with Daymare 1998 though based on the credits in that game. Not sure how you came to the conclusion they don't care about Mega Man when X Dive keeps getting supported and Battle Network has a collection dropping. You're just spoiled from annual releases which hasn't been a thing for almost 2 decades.
I was literally just thinking about MMX: Corrupted two nights ago, this is wild! Also, every time I see the intro stage opening with X getting armored up and swooping down, it gives me chills. Incredible stuff!
This is just spectacular. The amount of action in every screen is absurd. The game looks so fast-paced and beyond peak Mega Man. Be very proud of this.
Watching this live was one of the most beautiful experiences of all time. Every time a new system or mechanic or the dog was shown the chat popped off. I can't wait for the full release!
I’m just in awe with this entire video and how far this project has come along. This is exactly what I visioned Megaman X 10 would be since they went back to 8bit for Megaman 9 & 10. You and the other folks on the team working on this project have done a PHENOMENAL job, keep up the great work.
It's been over 10 years since I first saw this game, and I'm still waiting for it to be released. Thank you JKB Group for creating this masterpiece, and I look forward to seeing it released one day. The JKB team is still working on the game and it's been 16 years, and I think a lot of people are getting tired of waiting for over a decade, but you have to be patient. In my opinion, I think the game is more than 70-80 per cent developed.
You're probably right, that's about my personal estimate based on observations, dev comments, and streams shown. Just last night there was a stream showing off some new stuff, showing off a pair of new minibosses (Sparking Scorpio stage and Hurricane Hoatzin stage) and the very much in progress layout for Hoatzin stage. I think one day is getting closer.
@@AmatsuDarkfyre Yes. I watched a stream that went up over the weekend. I saw the Skyway map being mad, which looks to be in the early stages of production, and the Skyway minibosses being made. It certainly looks like the game is getting closer to completion.
Everything about this screams passion, dedication and soul. You guys are making something truly amazing. This is the game I'm most anticipating and it's not even close. I haven't had such a huge smile on my face than watching these update videos. Keep up the amazing work, we're all at the edge of our seats.
The very way the game starts screams SotN. X starts all overpowered in the intro stage, then gets stripped of all it's power and has to start a journey to recover the full power of its armor, pretty much like Alucard does.
@@elbitxo5945 also a nice touch, but i wonder what that NPC meant when she said the U. Armor was 61% repaired, i mean, how will repairing it work for us? Maybe finding Data Disks or some other items? Well, either way have a feeling this will be thrilling nonetheless
Literally can't wait for this game to come out. Been waiting for years with such excitement. I find myself coming back to watch this video every so often. Amazing work and I am sure it will be the best game in the series once it's finished.
I think the OCs are cringe. Siren looks like a Steven Universe character, and good-guy animal reploids give furry vibes. The mavericks have always been non-humanoid to represent their savagery. Leave it to a fangame to miss the point.
@@jewymcjewjew9939 Sigma and Vile are two Mavericks immediately off the top of my head that weren't animals and were also infinitely more savage than the majority of the animal form designs, Vile being the number one X hater of all time. There's also the three X Hunters.
@@jewymcjewjew9939 ok...? Didn't really ask for your opinion dude. Just cuz she has dark skin and different colored hair doesn't make her a SU character. Lol Iron Horn looks like any other animal reploids/maverick, I don't see the furry angle at all. Also that seems like your projecting a lot of that. Doesn't mean any of that is true.
Congratulations. I accompanied your livestreams, video and community during all these years. I'm glad that your team put all that effort making a fan-made MMX game, we can see all of that on the game's details. I hope that the more than almost 10-year development can provide us with a fullfilling experience. Capcom, take a good look on this, because this is the result inspired by the one of your best and long-forgotten series.
I really hope Capcom doesn't look at this, because recently they just cancelled a Code Veronica X project, and wayy before RE2 make was made, they cancelled the original project too
@@evilkeima They've never had a problem with Megaman fan games in the past. They even endorsed Street Fighter x Megaman & Mega Man Maker just released v1.8.
@@evilkeima they cancelled the Code Veronica X project when the developer itself starting to ask for a donation for the game development That's all I have heard of
@@krishnaputrayudhistira5519 That's fair, maybe because the game turned for-profit that's why they had to take it down. I'd be pretty bummed if MMX:Corrupted got taken down because I've been following this for a long time since I was still in Gradeschool
And at 9:55, it hit me: The tones of the sounds the text boxes make as they are filling in is in the same key as the background music. Absolute perfection.
@@ThePieceofEden making it physical would mean money involved, immediately being susceptible of legal actions for unauthorized IP use even if there's no profit. Sadly, is something we won't see.
@@elbitxo5945 yeah... Except etsy has so many fan made games turned into physical media. Just have someone entirely unrelated to the project do it and they won't get in trouble.
@@twaggytheatricks4960 this captures everything I wanted as a kid in the 90's growing up with the X series. I do hope to get to play it soon and it would be even cooler if Capcom officially sanctioned it.
This is, truly, looking amazing! Edit: it looks like it has almost this Metroid feel to it combined with an epic Legend of Zelda sized map - not that that's a bad thing. It's great! I want to play the game right now! I'd pay $30.
lol when we click on the hashtag it take you to the bottom of youtube: kid videos. Though, in my gameplay i might use Phoenix (wright) armor, i still like hydra bc i like more mobility and stuff. But seriously, Warfare dude is going to be tough.
One of my FAVORITE things is the Maverick Select screen.... This looks SICK. I'M SOOOOO PUMPED. A Megaman X game hasn't gotten my blood boiling in awhile, and I daresay, you have just brought the temperature back up. I'll be looking forward to this.
Dude, how on earth are you nailing everything about this game? Even down to the music, you've taken so much from the different series and have created something that I'd dare to say is better than anything capcom has put out for megaman. . . I've been lurking since you started and am astonished at what you've done, keep it up!
You "oh this is better than what Capcom does" guys really kill me. If Capcom worked on one fucking project for 80 years they'd put this quality or better out easily
That "61% repaired" with just 2 mavericks defeated pretty much confirms my hypothesis that strike is going to steal the ultimate armor in a mid-game sequence after you defeat the 4th maverick
Let's hope it's an *attempt to steal,* rather than a successful attempt. I think I speak for most of us when I say that we would like to keep the Ultimate Armour by any means necessary, even if it means fighting a stronger Strike.
@@SaviourV It would be cool if you could stop him from stealing it by doing an emergency teleport to the base and fighting him. Though, I suspect it's unavoidable.
@@dieuwtjin That would be a cool way to stop Strike's, a-hem, *STRIKE,* IMHO. 😆 **hears nothing but the chirps of Robo-Crickets...** I'll just exit stage right, now. 😅
well by the time he defeat 4th maverick, STRIKE gonna steal the UA and then we beat the hell out of strike but the suit is DAMAGED well after we defeat 8th maverick, the suit is fully repaired LOL this purpose is to NERF and make the games harder a little bit, we all know what the suit can do...
Damn that is so pretty! X is by far my favorite game of all times. the nostalgia is real with this one. and youve managed capture the essence. I think the music is a bit to slow and bouncy but the right sounds are there. I wouldve leaned more to the side of metal to something named "corrupted". This jazzy synthwave is a bit too cute ^^ good tho. Overall incredibly beautiful creation! cant wait to play it :)
This is absolutely what MegaMan Fans were waiting for. Action platformer with RPG elements. Sincerely, this is an incredible job. I'm ready for hours of it !
@@az3phyr_242 yeah ill go play fortnite, instead of a derivitive "modernized" megaman x knock off that loses the feel of the classics because its kewl and every game is doing it!
@@deathdealer312 I get what you are saying on how it feels out of place, but with its inclusion there is a new surplus of content that can be added into the standard MegaMan X formula. These all together can make for a nice combination of the Action-Platformer styles of Classic Megaman X and the RPG aspects of the Zero and ZX games. For waiting ever so long for a new X game, I see this inclusions as a net positive. I hope you can still enjoy the game when (if) it comes out despite these aspects.
It’s so great to see that there are still many passionate Megaman fans creating high-quality projects. Even if the series isn’t releasing installments as much anymore
Must thanks Daymon Kush X and Youseff Zeidan to still giving us news about this fan game, They dedicate a lot of time and I really appreciate that time, good job you two and stay firm and strong (oh and also to Pulsa_Start, sorry for not mentioning you as I don't follow you that much)
One full hour?? This is the best late Christmas present possible. 50:05 That was the longest possible setup for an amazing Megaman pun. There better be more of these in the game.

The reason why this game is taking a lot of time it's because they have started the development from the ground when they switched to the Haxe programming language, which offers a lot of portability compared to the previous development kit they were using.

That's what i was thinking - with the metroid vania aspect of it and the allied NPCs and stuff. it looks dope
SNES type MMX enhanced with the later games features and built in a Metroid design style
More like Metroidvania Megaman ZX but more Zero style.
@@DekkarJr , I would actually like to have the ability to have this game worked on even more so that the areas that are from previous Mega/Rock Man X games, as well as enemies, sub-bosses, and bosses, can be put into this game, and maybe a few brand new sub-bosses as well. I also want a playable Axl, Layer, Palette, and Alia as well, as having multiple unique characters, and the things that I had mentioned, would all make this game have a LOT of replay value, and even more so with special armors that they can all have as well. Finally, although I would not consider this game as a Mega/Rock Man X9, I WOULD hope that Capcom green lights this game, as well as allows it to be made, as it would be a multi-platform hit, as well as a damn successful foray into the Metroidvania genre for this franchise from Capcom.
@@paxhumana2015 Axl isn't really possible because this game is basically an alternate timeline. The split is Megaman X5, since this game is sort of supposed to replace Megaman X6. So Axl doesn't exist, the stuff with the nightmare virus hasn't happened, and neither have the incidents with Red Alert or Lumine.
I wasn't a fan of X6 and felt X7 was really flawed, so I'm not exactly shedding tears for the idea of this game replacing them in the timeline. Even if said timeline is entirely fanmade. I will mourn for the Jakob Elevator, though, because I really liked that tune.
That map screen looks sick as fuck. I love all the mugshots as well. All of them look so menacing
JKB did it even better than Capcom
@@fainthewanderer4060 agreed
You mean, "Just like Capcom". Let's not get too wacky flailing inflatable arm tube man so quick.
RIGHT? But let's be honest, Capcom did that too
@@beinyourguard but not great as this game
i've said something similar on the video that was just the intro stage, but i have to say it again: this is the most lore-accurate representation of X i've ever seen, moreso than the actual canon. as far as i'm concerned, this game should be considered canon. hearing the other characters refer to X as captain X, seeing him lead and fight alongside them, this is such a perfect representation of everything we've been told X is supposed to be. we're told *and* shown here who X is and i really can't get enough of the way he's handled here. he used to be one of my favorite characters when i was younger and this approach is really tapping into that again. this is incredible
Yeah like he's been a captain ever since X2 but the only you see him giving orders is in the X5 bad ending, wild
Oh and funnily enough, X7, which gameplay aside, is pretty well
Yeah, X gets treated as a buck private across most of the series when he even used to lead the Maverick Hunters in the second game. You can feel the RESPEC from here, he's a high-ranking officer and treated as such. X is written as the worrying and carying yet brave and fierce character he is. I love when that soldier asks if they're all going to die and he says "No one is going to die today. Get to the escape pods" and then just goes to the core like a boss. Probably the best writing for X we have seen since MHX.
Yeah, I absolutely adore how X is written here. He's just the compassionate, heroic, and just robot that he's supposed to be around him, and I just love how he's written. Very excited to see Zero's writing here, too.

I've been following this fan game since its very inception back when I was in college...around 10 years? Oh man, time is weird lol. To see it like this, leaves me speechless. It was basically an idea when I first came across it, just music tracks Dominic Ninmark scored most of (that got me hooked to this game). Now it's just about fully fleshed out and it's just...spectacular. You guys haven't cut any corners whatsoever with this and it shows in spades. I can only offer my sincerest thank you and my absolute respect for continuing this project, no matter the length it took to get to where it is now. I look forward to the day it's fully released to experience it for ourselves.
That said, if Capcom decided to pick this up as an official title to the X line up, that would be a dream come true I would imagine!
I remember back when capcom decided to pick up Street Fighter X Mega Man as an official game. The game was being developed as a fan game, and instead of capcom issuing a cease and desist, they hired the guy to complete it.
That’d be amazing if capcom does the same with this. This game deserves the worlds eyes on it.

@@corruptedshadowtrap6098 Still more impressive than Earths Special Forces lol how long has that been going with very few updates on the development.
The addition of Iron Horn is really cool. I problem I have with the original X/Zero series is how all Mavericks based on animals are evil/ turn evil in the games. Seeing an animal reploid who is unambiguously good is a breath of fresh air.
Agreed, thought it was cool when X and Zero interacted with Storm Eagle and such before they became mavericks in Day of Sigma, cool to see more like this in MMXC.
Also just the bit of lore about them all having a title, and Guin's title is Chili...
@@Amanofan7777 Poor X is having war flashbacks about his first mission against a maverick boss, and Guin is just going on about food...
Well. The idea with the Mavericks. They don't turn evil out of the blue. Most of them are infected by a virus that reprograms them. Most cases against their will. The Main exception being the repliforce. They had Sigma Minions infiltrated in their army. So is a 50/50.
@@DanielAyy in the X1 manga Zero and Storm Eagle were also buddies/friendly rivals in that, and Armored Armadillo just lived by samurai Bushido so he had to honor Sigma and challenge X. It was a great manga for a game adaptation for sure, I prefer it too when the Mavericks aren't just mindless bosses to kill 👍
Damn, the developer did an unbelievably great job with this. The original Mega Man X has been one of my all time favorite games since I was 8, I'm 34 now, and I still love to play it. But this... This thing is just incredible. The level of detail, the action, music, everything about this is just awesome.
Man this might be my most anticipated game of all time. Sometimes it's hard to believe just because of all the years that have gone by, but you guys really have been working hard all this time and it DEFINITELY shows. Just gorgeous, creative, fluid and awesome from top to bottom.
It's such a minor detail but I love how when you leave the base, the other hunters help you clear out some of the enemies at the entrance. Small things like this really bring the Maverick Hunters alive since up until now you only ever really saw X and Zero doing everything.
Why do you love minor as hell details like that!? They are pointless!
@@cloudycloud7666
Pointless as it may seem, little details like that count a little bit towards world-building, IMHO.
Sure, they might have basic AI, but at least they're taking a more proactive role instead of merely waiting to be rescued, like in past games.
Yes, the Hunters are stranded on an unknown island, where the Mavericks have taken control and thoroughly wish to destroy them, but even though the SA Hunters X and Zero will be the main offence, the rest of the Hunters won't stay idly by and leave them to do all of the work, at least this time around.
@@SaviourV what's this "World Building" you speak of?
@@cloudycloud7666
Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but I'll indulge you a little.
A basic story usually involves a protagonist (or a small band of them) fighting against an antagonist (or several), in pursuit of a goal, lofty or otherwise.
But it's not always just their story alone. Even though NPCs (non-player characters) usually get relegated to background duty, being nothing more than just means for either idle talk or random missions / fetch quests, sometimes even they have their own stories to tell that could provide the hero(es) with more ideas on how to gain more ground in the main quest, or perhaps the NPCs might offer a certain degree of direct (or even indirect) assistance to stave off the enemies ahead.
And that's only a small portion of world-building, IMHO.
I haven't gotten into subjects like a realm's lore, though.
But I would recommend that you play games like CrossCode, by Radical Fish. There's some interesting aspects to it, and I would like to see similar aspects in this game, despite it being a Rockman / Mega Man game.
@@SaviourV oh yeah! I Love that!

What a perfect way to start off 2023! This game looks almost flawless! Definitely will be the best and most replayable Megaman game of all time! 🏆

It's the first game in god knows how long to make me feel like a kid in the 90's again.
I love this and thank you for years of hard work. Incredible! The only thing I wish you hadn't changed is Strike's dialogue.
In earlier videos, it seemed to showcase his personality a little. Now he's just spouting old comic book villain lines, "YoU hAVe tO dEFeat mE oR eVerYOne dIEs lololol"
In the older versions, he began with: "So this is the legendary Maverick Hunter, X. I was wondering when you'd finally arrive." Strike's anticipation is palpable. He's aware of X's storied reputation, almost is if he'd studied it, yet remains arrogant about the prospect of fighting. The remark is jeering (about time you got here), a little admiring, and impatient.
Then X says, "I assume you're the one behind this?"
and Strike goes: "Maybe. Maybe not." like he could care less about a plan or strategy, he's just burning to fight a legend.
"What matters is you're here and I finally get to PLAY with you." He's definitely horny to fight X. In fact, Strike has so much detachment from anything but his desire to challenge X he doesn't even remember / care to give his own name.
Now instead, we get: "Hullo X, I'm Strike. Here's my plan." then he proceeds to explain what we would've seen with our own eyes. It just makes Strike--who I initially gauged to be a narcissistic psychopath---into a grab bag whatever villain.
I'm not saying the original dialogue didn't borrow elements from other, well known tropes but at least it wasn't so flatline as this.
I liked the older version of Plasma Puffer's dialogue as well. He's being coy (ba dum tss!) and makes a stupid pun, to which X just sort of stares at him "....." I thought it was funny. Its almost like X was thinking: "Ok wow. This guy has definitely shit his circuits... Time for shooting."
But with the new dialogue we get an attempted therapy session? C'mon man. Revert to the older dialogue, please :-D it had more personality.
Holy crap. My body is ready for this game.

This game has been ready for years, but JKB has not released it because it profits from the lives stream by programming the game
They shut that one down because they literally were planning to remake RE2 themselves.
They DID assist in some capacity with Daymare 1998 though based on the credits in that game.
Not sure how you came to the conclusion they don't care about Mega Man when X Dive keeps getting supported and Battle Network has a collection dropping. You're just spoiled from annual releases which hasn't been a thing for almost 2 decades.
This is just a masterpiece. I've never seen a game reflecting so much dedication and love for the character! Everything is just perfect, amazing work!
I was literally just thinking about MMX: Corrupted two nights ago, this is wild! Also, every time I see the intro stage opening with X getting armored up and swooping down, it gives me chills. Incredible stuff!
So many references to previous Mega Man games! To enemies, attacks and level design. So much love has been put into this game, it's astounding.
milodon fight was fun to watch
Megaman X + Original story + Upgraded 16 bits graphics +
Improved overall game system + DOGGO SIDE QUEST = PERFECTION ❤
Doggo side quest rocks! Could he be Frienda? Friender from the Casshan Robot series? That would really get interesting!
AND HERE IS DAMN RIGHT
PASS THE WORD TO MAKE THIS 14 YEARS WORTH EVEN LESS TIME HE NEEDDS
THE WHOLE TEAM NEEDS TO BETTER
This is just spectacular. The amount of action in every screen is absurd. The game looks so fast-paced and beyond peak Mega Man. Be very proud of this.
Watching this live was one of the most beautiful experiences of all time. Every time a new system or mechanic or the dog was shown the chat popped off. I can't wait for the full release!
This is probably the first fan game to REALLY get my heart beating and my blood pumping
I’m just in awe with this entire video and how far this project has come along. This is exactly what I visioned Megaman X 10 would be since they went back to 8bit for Megaman 9 & 10. You and the other folks on the team working on this project have done a PHENOMENAL job, keep up the great work.
you skipped megaman x9
And megaman 11 doesnt look like megaman 10, its just got a glowup
@@azurecorviknight4189 my fault, y’all are right. I got excited typing that and didn’t realize lol
It's been over 10 years since I first saw this game, and I'm still waiting for it to be released.
Thank you JKB Group for creating this masterpiece, and I look forward to seeing it released one day.
The JKB team is still working on the game and it's been 16 years, and I think a lot of people are getting tired of waiting for over a decade, but you have to be patient. In my opinion, I think the game is more than 70-80 per cent developed.
You're probably right, that's about my personal estimate based on observations, dev comments, and streams shown. Just last night there was a stream showing off some new stuff, showing off a pair of new minibosses (Sparking Scorpio stage and Hurricane Hoatzin stage) and the very much in progress layout for Hoatzin stage. I think one day is getting closer.
@@AmatsuDarkfyre Yes. I watched a stream that went up over the weekend. I saw the Skyway map being mad, which looks to be in the early stages of production, and the Skyway minibosses being made. It certainly looks like the game is getting closer to completion.
Everything about this screams passion, dedication and soul. You guys are making something truly amazing. This is the game I'm most anticipating and it's not even close. I haven't had such a huge smile on my face than watching these update videos. Keep up the amazing work, we're all at the edge of our seats.
This is my most anticipated game ever, from the looks of gameplay you’ve mastered the Mega Man X experience
The Side-Quests and teleporters really give a huge Metroidvania feel to the game, awesome!
Xtroidvania
@@CodeXCDM Mega Metroidvania
The very way the game starts screams SotN. X starts all overpowered in the intro stage, then gets stripped of all it's power and has to start a journey to recover the full power of its armor, pretty much like Alucard does.
@@elbitxo5945 also a nice touch, but i wonder what that NPC meant when she said the U. Armor was 61% repaired, i mean, how will repairing it work for us? Maybe finding Data Disks or some other items? Well, either way have a feeling this will be thrilling nonetheless
Megatroidvania would be to correct word for it.
Literally can't wait for this game to come out. Been waiting for years with such excitement. I find myself coming back to watch this video every so often. Amazing work and I am sure it will be the best game in the series once it's finished.
This is a complete masterpiece, the holy grail for Megaman fans, that's it.
I WANT IT FOR 3DS!!!!!
@@chimuoma390 It would be cool playing it in 3-D.
I'm digging Siren and Iron Horn's designs. I like that we see some animal like Reploids genuinely working as Maverick Hunter without turning bad.
I think the OCs are cringe. Siren looks like a Steven Universe character, and good-guy animal reploids give furry vibes. The mavericks have always been non-humanoid to represent their savagery. Leave it to a fangame to miss the point.
@@jewymcjewjew9939 None of that matters, still an excellent fangame
@@jewymcjewjew9939 Sigma and Vile are two Mavericks immediately off the top of my head that weren't animals and were also infinitely more savage than the majority of the animal form designs, Vile being the number one X hater of all time. There's also the three X Hunters.
@@Milez1337 I didn't say Mavericks couldn't be humanoids. As you point out, the elite Mavericks are always humanoid, because they are more "evolved."
@@jewymcjewjew9939 ok...? Didn't really ask for your opinion dude. Just cuz she has dark skin and different colored hair doesn't make her a SU character. Lol Iron Horn looks like any other animal reploids/maverick, I don't see the furry angle at all. Also that seems like your projecting a lot of that. Doesn't mean any of that is true.
Congratulations. I accompanied your livestreams, video and community during all these years. I'm glad that your team put all that effort making a fan-made MMX game, we can see all of that on the game's details. I hope that the more than almost 10-year development can provide us with a fullfilling experience.
Capcom, take a good look on this, because this is the result inspired by the one of your best and long-forgotten series.
I really hope Capcom doesn't look at this, because recently they just cancelled a Code Veronica X project, and wayy before RE2 make was made, they cancelled the original project too
More than 10 years actually
@@evilkeima They've never had a problem with Megaman fan games in the past. They even endorsed Street Fighter x Megaman & Mega Man Maker just released v1.8.
@@evilkeima they cancelled the Code Veronica X project when the developer itself starting to ask for a donation for the game development
That's all I have heard of
@@krishnaputrayudhistira5519 That's fair, maybe because the game turned for-profit that's why they had to take it down. I'd be pretty bummed if MMX:Corrupted got taken down because I've been following this for a long time since I was still in Gradeschool
And at 9:55, it hit me: The tones of the sounds the text boxes make as they are filling in is in the same key as the background music. Absolute perfection.
The instant this masterpiece is released, All of us need to save it for posterity. 🥂
if they can make a physical and put it on etsy. it would be perfect
@ThePieceofEden Dear god I would love that! Make this run on Dreamcast hardware please.
@@ThePieceofEden capcom would come
After his ass HARD
@@ThePieceofEden making it physical would mean money involved, immediately being susceptible of legal actions for unauthorized IP use even if there's no profit. Sadly, is something we won't see.
@@elbitxo5945 yeah... Except etsy has so many fan made games turned into physical media. Just have someone entirely unrelated to the project do it and they won't get in trouble.
Capcom should pull a Sega with Sonic Mania and hire you and your team, this looks absolutely incredible, can't wait to experience it
They probably will when the game’s completed, if it ever will. I mean, this game has been in development since I was 2.
@@twaggytheatricks4960 this captures everything I wanted as a kid in the 90's growing up with the X series. I do hope to get to play it soon and it would be even cooler if Capcom officially sanctioned it.
@nunyabeezwax6758 I know they won't.... But I can dream 😆
good idea if they want a game that takes 30 years to complete
Just because your easily impressed by it doesn't mean Capcom has the same low standards.
AB-SOL-UTE-LY AMAZING!!! This is easily any X's fans dream come true!! The sequeal ALL of us wanted!!!
This is, truly, looking amazing!
Edit: it looks like it has almost this Metroid feel to it combined with an epic Legend of Zelda sized map - not that that's a bad thing. It's great!
I want to play the game right now! I'd pay $30.
The flow of this game is fast paced and smooth. It also gets your heart racing with the tense moments and the music! I love it!
Y pensar que esto es un FANGAME.
ES UNA JOYA MAESTRA EN TODOS LOS SENTIDOS!
Enorme trabajo de JKB GAMES.
36:56 This has to be one of the most unique enemy encounters I’ve seen in a long time. Awesome!
And a badass song to go with it
This is ridiculously impressive. Good luck to everyone who is working on this, this looks fantastic!
Finally, a new MegaMan X Corrupted video! We're going to have a great evening! #TeamHydra
lol when we click on the hashtag it take you to the bottom of youtube: kid videos. Though, in my gameplay i might use Phoenix (wright) armor, i still like hydra bc i like more mobility and stuff. But seriously, Warfare dude is going to be tough.
#TeamHydra
@@zyphiro6166 #HailHydra
One of my FAVORITE things is the Maverick Select screen.... This looks SICK. I'M SOOOOO PUMPED. A Megaman X game hasn't gotten my blood boiling in awhile, and I daresay, you have just brought the temperature back up.
I'll be looking forward to this.
The amount of passion in this project surpasses the one seemed even on AAA projects... Thank you guys for doing your really best on it. 💪
AAA projects are usually made in a year or two, this has been in the works for 14 years so it damn well better
@@evanvinet8773 I share your exact sentiments
That intro is so fucking awesome dude. The whole thing is great, but my gawd. That intro explains things to a X fan. For real.
It's crazy to think how much a fan project such as this has grown and been polished to this degree! That takes a lot of dedication!
As someone who absolutely loved both Mega Man and Sonic as a kid, seeing X ball up and blast through those pipes makes me very happy
Some of them got me thinking of Scrambled Egg.
@@sonicboy678 well now I'm just hungry
It's amazing how the first minute of a gameplay, you can just FEEL this game is going to be an absolute scorcher.
That tune in the first stage would rank among the top 10 tunes from Mega Man X-games.
Dellusional.
That's crazy. Looking great so far.
Wish you guys the very best with this project.
Very excited for that. The boss selection screen is looking amazing, what a good way to start the year
Yeah,a really amazing way to start.
Dude, how on earth are you nailing everything about this game? Even down to the music, you've taken so much from the different series and have created something that I'd dare to say is better than anything capcom has put out for megaman. . . I've been lurking since you started and am astonished at what you've done, keep it up!
You "oh this is better than what Capcom does" guys really kill me. If Capcom worked on one fucking project for 80 years they'd put this quality or better out easily
@@Immunity1080 nope.
@@Abakchi ye
@@Abakchi you're all fools
@@Immunity1080 not gonna happen, we only get cash grabs like X7 or dive
That "61% repaired" with just 2 mavericks defeated pretty much confirms my hypothesis that strike is going to steal the ultimate armor in a mid-game sequence after you defeat the 4th maverick
Let's hope it's an *attempt to steal,* rather than a successful attempt.
I think I speak for most of us when I say that we would like to keep the Ultimate Armour by any means necessary, even if it means fighting a stronger Strike.
@@SaviourV It would be cool if you could stop him from stealing it by doing an emergency teleport to the base and fighting him. Though, I suspect it's unavoidable.
@@dieuwtjin
That would be a cool way to stop Strike's, a-hem, *STRIKE,* IMHO. 😆
**hears nothing but the chirps of Robo-Crickets...**
I'll just exit stage right, now. 😅
@@SaviourV if what I remember from the plot is still accurate, you _don't_ what to keep that armor, at least not after what's gonna happen to it 😅 .
well by the time he defeat 4th maverick, STRIKE gonna steal the UA
and then we beat the hell out of strike but the suit is DAMAGED
well after we defeat 8th maverick, the suit is fully repaired LOL
this purpose is to NERF and make the games harder a little bit, we all know what the suit can do...
Damn that is so pretty! X is by far my favorite game of all times. the nostalgia is real with this one. and youve managed capture the essence. I think the music is a bit to slow and bouncy but the right sounds are there. I wouldve leaned more to the side of metal to something named "corrupted". This jazzy synthwave is a bit too cute ^^ good tho. Overall incredibly beautiful creation! cant wait to play it :)
This is absolutely what MegaMan Fans were waiting for. Action platformer with RPG elements. Sincerely, this is an incredible job. I'm ready for hours of it !
The rpg elements are completely out of place, who are these fans who wanted this? And I mean before this game was announced
@@deathdealer312 it's okay lil bro, fortnite got a new season just for you 😆
@@az3phyr_242 yeah ill go play fortnite, instead of a derivitive "modernized" megaman x knock off that loses the feel of the classics because its kewl and every game is doing it!
@jose rodriguez are you a lil triggered? Cant handle even mild criticism of a game you havent even played yet?
@@deathdealer312 I get what you are saying on how it feels out of place, but with its inclusion there is a new surplus of content that can be added into the standard MegaMan X formula. These all together can make for a nice combination of the Action-Platformer styles of Classic Megaman X and the RPG aspects of the Zero and ZX games. For waiting ever so long for a new X game, I see this inclusions as a net positive. I hope you can still enjoy the game when (if) it comes out despite these aspects.
It’s so great to see that there are still many passionate Megaman fans creating high-quality projects. Even if the series isn’t releasing installments as much anymore
The details, enemy variety, bosses, level design, everything is wild. Time and patience are really paying off.
0:37 The best intro that i have ever seen!
FACTS TRUE STORY 💯 TRUELY MAGNIFICENT INTRO OF MEGAMAN X
Must thanks Daymon Kush X and Youseff Zeidan to still giving us news about this fan game, They dedicate a lot of time and I really appreciate that time, good job you two and stay firm and strong (oh and also to Pulsa_Start, sorry for not mentioning you as I don't follow you that much)
Thanks my friend, very happy to know that! U are welcome!
One full hour?? This is the best late Christmas present possible.
50:05 That was the longest possible setup for an amazing Megaman pun. There better be more of these in the game.
That intro sequence with that music is so badass I got goosebumps
Reminds me of the Iron Man Mk 7 scene in the Avengers.
Esto no debería ser un fan game, debería ser un juego oficial 😍
Totalmente, este hombre le da mil vueltas a Capcom, lleva más de 10 años apasionado en este proyecto. Otros ya habrían abortado después de tantos años de desarrollo y lo graciosos es q es un puñado de personas los q trabajan en esto.
Aprende Capcom.
Muy posiblemente Capcom se comunique con él cuando lo lanze. Capcom no es como Nintendo, ellos si apoyan los fangames
@@deyanmonterrey7582 O quizá ya lo notificaron, digo, el tipo lleva haciendo el juego por más de 10 años, se ha vuelto el fangame más esperado por toda la comunidad, seguro hace rato llegó a oídos de Capcom.
@@zannilockwan2675 nunca se han comunicado con nosotros.
@@SoojArt cómo? Tu eres del team?
creativity at its finest,all the way from the impact of the attacks to the themes and the intro! id say you saved the megaman x series man not only that capcom needs you and a few others but def you.
Finally, a "modern-day" Mega Man X game that doesn't suck.
