Hey gang, for those who missed part one,
here's the link
The long and short of it is, I'm trying to win this
Mega Man boss contest over at Siliconera. If I win, I plan to "re-gift" much of my winnings here at D-Toid in contest form, as I really don't need three copies of the same game.
My entry, Emoti-Man, is currently in first, thanks in no small part to the D-Toid army. Many people helped me out with votes last night, but not enough for a sizable lead. I'm only 4% away from failure.
So, am I just reporting this info to continue pandering to the D-Toid army? No! I'm adding new content as well.
For Today I'm showing two other charatcers I helped create that didn't make the cut for the contest. Yesterday I showed Mr Destructoid-Man. Today, it's Fore-Man and Li-Man's turn.
Fore-Man is obviously a take on George Foreman. It wouldn't be the first time a sexy,
real life boxer made his way into a Capcom game, and who better man to keep the tradition alive than pne of the oldest, fattiest boxing champions ever? But now it's not just
KO time. It's BurgerTime as well.
Fore-Man has the moves you'd expect. Uppercut, Burger Hado-Ken, and Dudley from Street Fighter 3's Corkscrew blow (don't scoff. It's also not the first time a Mega Man character has done Street Fighter moves.)
But the real kicker is where you fight Fore-Man. You fight him in the world of Burger Time. Fore-Man's most brutal attack is to actually make Mega Man an ingredient in a giant burger, to be eaten by who ever eats those giant burgers. Giants? Who can say. But as many a giant walking homocidal Hot Dog or Fried Egg can tell you, to be built into one of these burgers means instant death.
Remember the death, people. Remember the death.
Ahem.
Next up is Li-Man, another Street Fighter inspired character. Li-Man is basicly Gill from SF3, but instead of Fire and Ice, he's all about lemon and lime. Plus, he's cuter, and he's a robot.
Gill.
Li-Man.
I couldn't really think of too many great moves for Li-Man. He can bring himself back to life like Gill, he can float around in a bubble made of soda, he can shoot Limons from his hands, and he's got the bitch slap. If anybody else has any better ideas, feel free to share them and I'll try to fit them in.
With Li-Man, I really just wanted to do the SF3/Mega Man/Sprite cross over. How could I resist? In his stage, you'd fight tons of SF inspired SD robots, little Ryu's throwing Hadoukens, like Ibuki's jumping around throwing knives around, and of course little Zangiefs running right into your bullets ready to pile drive you. It would be cute as fuck, would it not?
I really would like to make a game with these characters. A simple flash game with mostly cannibalised graphics. I think it could be fun, not too much work, and be better than most of the un-creative, un-funny fan made Mega Man games currently out there.
Any one game? Want to come up with some boss ideas and have a party?
If not, will you real quick just
vote for Emoti-Man? It would really make my day.
You shall triumph over the forces of evil/other contestants.
So, if I made the Mega Man game (which I have debbed Mega Man fina;) featuring Mr Destructoid-Man, Fore-Man, Li-Man, and Emoti-Man, you'd play it?
That would be teh BALLZ!
I just need to find some flash game programmers.
And who else has some ideas for bosses? These have been, in my opinion, the funniest ones I've come up with. The other 6 or so I've got, not as good. I know some of you have to have soem ideas.
Your Mega Manz, let you show me yours.
Maybe this weekend.
