The special demo turned out to be only for backers who pledged $20 or more. So that just proves their lack of communication even more.

Anyway, I'm sure the game isn't terrible, but the main concern is the quality compared to the amount of funding it received.

Considering that the people that didn't pledge enough to get the game as a reward didn't get the demo, it does make sense; however, it is unfortunate.

My ONLY issue is the non-animations during cutscenes. I understand that they'd have to animate the mouths for each language, but I'm sure some of compromise could have been made. Otherwise, the game is solid.

You know it's a shame people are getting negative with the game because of poor communication and delays. Put those dramas aside and you'll see a game that's really good. As a backer I feel like I got what I pledged for.

I expected better considering the funds it received , and the successive other campaigns for either a spin off game or derivative products like an anime .

I's a pass for me , with upcoming title in other genre , and it not wowing me in any way

After plying it. Eh..it's ok felt pretty mediocre. Can be fun but pretty bland.

Jesus, this guy probably wasn't born when the last good megaman title released.

I have access to the special demo.

This is a solid gameplay experience. It feels like a good sidescroller with solid megaman elements scattered throughout. The feeling of speed is definitely there.

The voice acting, the script, and overall story is very old-school, which means it has some very rough edges, which should be expected for a 'megaman' game of this type.

I personally do not like the graphics. The 3D models don't really have a place here, as I feel about the other 'megaman' games that have 3D models. Megaman should be Sprite-based or anime style like the PSX megaman X games.

I'm excited to play this, along with 20XX on the horizon. I don't understand how people could skip this. Wouldn't you want as many solid sidescrollers like this if you're a fan of the genre? I know I do

People are over reacting over this game.
Games get delayed all the time.
I'm sure its going to be good but there is a lot of negativity surrounding this game and I honestly don't get it.

Nothing shady is going on as far as I'm concerned, unless I'm missing something

I think it has to do with the fact that the game got like 4 to 6x the money it needed and ended up getting an actual publisher (which means even more money) to back it yet it looks "cheap" and is delayed.

With the amount of money backed into this game ... why is such a simple looking game coming out so damn late? Is the developer pocketing most of the money meant for the game by barely hiring anyone to work on this game? Is the developer working on other projects such as Red Ash, ReCore instead of finishing this game first?

I think these are fair questions to ask.

[MrBrofist]

The game got 4 million in funding. That is not that much when it comes to game development.

Also you forgot they wanted to add voice acting and stuff.

Just because they got a publisher doesn't mean they didn't have a budget they couldn't go over.

People are just mad because it's not exactly what they wanted.
I will wait for the final product before judging the game
