An animation I created pitting Mega Man against a Hard Hat (AKA Met, Metall, Metool, Mettaur, etc. etc.). It features every (unique) weapon and utility item from the following games:
Mega Man 1-6
Mega Man I-V (Game Boy)
Mega Man 7-8, Mega Man & Bass
Mega Man Powered Up
Mega Man 9
Thanks to the sprite rippers at Sprites INC, without whom this animation would have been impossible. Most sprites are the property of Capcom, but a few are my own creation - notably, the 8-bit depictions of weapons from MM7, MM8, MM&B, and MMPU. (I've also colored and touched up the Game Boy sprites.) I'm aware there are 8-bit fan games of Mega Man 7 and 8, but my corresponding sprites are not lifted from those games.
I've taken a few liberties with the game mechanics in places, in the hopes of coming up with an entertaining sequence of events. I've also slightly tweaked the suit colors on a few occasions to avoid having identical color schemes back-to-back. Forgive me.
Notes: The setting is inspired from the intro of Mega Man 2. The Proto Man whistle is depicted using what I believe to be accurate musical notation; as far as I could find, this tune was not previously available online in this format.
