This is the first Mega Man to have 4-way scrolling, it's the first to have one-piece stages (instead of sections stitched with ladders and edges of screens), it's the first to have an intro stage, the first to have platforms that can be jumped through, and it's also the first Mega Man to feature the curvy text logo...
Much of this game looks completely foreign to me, but some parts like the toxic waste barrels, the dripping lava, or the ants bring back of surge of memory from when I was maybe six years old. Funny how that works.
You all laugh but this was one of the "better" DOS games back in 1990. I played this on my dad's 286 computer in VGA graphics and maybe 5 FPS. No it wasn't great but it's what we had. :) Also worth noting that Stephen Rozner worked at Capcom but didn't get to work on anything cool. So he worked on this game after-hours, and successfully sold it to Capcom later. Two years later and he coded an original game with his brother, called Bioman. He showed it to Capcom, and then it was them who suggested they re-skin it into a Mega Man game, Mega Man 3 for DOS. (They skipped 2 for some reason).
Almost that, but no, it was Hi Tech Expressions who published this with permission from Capcom, and it was also Hi Tech Expressions who forced them to convert Bio Man to Mega Man because they already had the license for Mega Man & it was less risky than coming up with a new brand.
@@kawafernandes7025 i know this is like 10 months later and you probably dont care anymore, but I played it on internet archive and had to turn the joystick option to off when I started it up to get it to respond to the fire button being pressed. idk if its like that everywhere, but thats how it is on IA at least.

Chicken: "COW! You Better not be playing that stupid The Adventures of Monkey Boy game!" I thought Mega Man looked like a monkey even in this game ROFL
I owned this back in the day. I owned an NES and SNES and loved Mega Man, but I was also super fascinated by DOS games. There weren't a lot of sidescrollers for DOS and none of them could compete with what was on the consoles. But they were interesting and felt so different, albeit janky.
You know what would be funny to me? If someone took this and made an actually good fan game out of. Opening stage that's an actual stage, these 3 bosses plus 5 more, M u S i C, vastly improved animations, at least 3 Wily Stages, etc. I'd recommend doing it either in the NES style, SNES style, or the style used in 8.
I'm kinda doing something like that, but in Mega Man Maker, I'm combining both DOS games into 1. The level layouts are a mix of DOS and original, with a few new added levels, obviously music in each stage, minions fights, all playable characters, and new unlockable power ups. Dunno when it'll be done, but I just thought I would mention it.
This game speeds up to an very very fast speed if you don't use something that has the power of a low-end 386 or so,however you can't see it in this video so i will give an link to the TAS of this game that has the game at at an very high speed: th-cam.com/video/N2dbrfPGSHE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=L_WLp00LV46WK486
This game may be crap, but I still appreciate it as being one of the first publicly available fangames
Yes.
No. It's a liscenced game (liscenced bye CAPCOM)
Even more bizarre is that this is an official product, albeit very loosely official.
It's like somebody made a game based soley on the NES box art. 😂
Man, I LOVE the soundtrack of this game!
Nah, Megaman 2's Wily Stage 6's soundtrack is better
It’s very minimalist.
I personally like MegaMan X14's famous Poison Beaver more.
Nothing but beeps and boops….
@@peaceandpeaceagain4141 MM2 Wily Stage 6 music is AWESOME. Soundtrack to my life. I literally listen to that every day.
Congratulations, you beat a speedrunner’s time

Stephen Rozner, the dude that worked one the game...
One Guy, now that’s an accomplishment!

Look What We Got
-Literally Elec Man and Air Man Fusion
-Maybe Not Hedgehog Robot Master
-Bomb Man's Brother
-Bootleg Rush
Enough... Good Game Port
The weapons?
- Mega Buster 0.2
- Dollar store Hyper Bomb
- a shield that would’ve been good if it didn’t run out so quickly
Who hurt you to make you do this?
Wait why is the water themed guy called Sonic man? I thought Sonic couldn't swim.
He has a sound weapon
@@HeIsTheBluesCatWhether or not his weapon is sound does not equate to his name being a sound decision.
Sonars are pretty scary...
This game predates Sonic the Hedgehog by about a year.
Man truly the game of all time
How do you get this game to run? Whenever I try to play DOS games on my PC they either crash or have really weird graphical glitches.
LOL! I can't even start the game.
(No button ever responds for "FIRE")
You may need an emulator

@@UrbanToast Interesting. Very interesting!
Maybe, if someday I want to play this, I'll probably do that! :D
@@thesmilingman7576 I was using DOSBox :/
This is actually making my stomach turn
Yep, totally the worst mega man game in existence...

That's just being plain nasty, as someone who knows the background about this game.

…
YOU AGAIN...
@@rebelfleettrooper9881 Hii...
What is gonna be the next game you gonna play?
This can be do with South Korea DOS in 1990s.
I remember this.
This game took my favorite video game franchise and gave us this.
😂
Bro this soundtrack BOPS!
Shaking my gluteus Maximus to this soundtrack
YOU'RE JOKING THE FROGS ARE HERE BUT NO MUSIC
This is beyond doubt the nastiest port or whatever this thing is... EVER
Okay, Which one is the fire button?
Space
The flame tower
You need to turn off joystick on a DOSbox emulator

Ah yes that one game Power Guy forced to play inside Gamer Jail like a year ago.
Sonic man reminds me of a soap brand can thing in my grandmas shower I got skUNKED when I was 10 year old and she tomato me and scrubbin bubles
Whoever added the yoku blocks into this game was cruel. Ahh, there was only one person that worked on this!
why does this game exist?
Supreme.
Voltman, Elec Man's forgotten cousin
Sonicman, wait what? The guy from 06?
Dynaman, idk.
Why does sonicman sorta look like Marvin the martian
We both have the same brain.
AVGN covered this as part of a collection of bad Mega Man games.
Perhaps this was like a beta concept for Wily Tower?
Reminds me of Duke Nukem 1 with no music
I can't believe they sold this for money.

そのゲームの三幕構成がこれ。
第1幕:メガマン、戦いに赴く。(オープニングステージ)
第2幕:メガマン、武器を集める。(3つの選択可能ステージ)
第3幕:メガマン、ワイリーの野望を阻止する。(最終ステージ)
RM's in this game could have potential
one of the worst mega man games in history.
So peak...
Better than the first X and zero 3 combined
This is the greatest game of all time
Dear lord this is dire
Just seen this game almost gave me Cancer. OMG, ¿how could did you survive this game?
16:14 Mega Man 11 Lol
wow this looks horrible, still really wanna play this at least a bit tho
Holy shit this look terrible...
at least looks aesthetic and dreamlike but very bad for a megaman game
Short, Sweet and Crap
Soip
Wtf? ._.
