This isn't exactly a game, but it's game related and I thought that the group of people that frequent the forum here might find this entertaining.

In case it's any incentive for you to actually click the link, it does involve Megaman.  Who can say no to that?

I have lots of improvements that I want to make.  If you have any ideas for improvements please feel free to let me know.

Let him run on my desktop for about a minute. Problem is all my widows are always maximized. Would it be possible for him to identify any horizontal line long enough for him to stand on and jump up and down the "platforms"?

Actually, since your name is "the particle man", that kind of forced me into listening to what you had to say.

Looks cool though.

I can see he is very in beta. Looking good so far though.

In a future version I'm planning on making it so he interacts with the windows you currently have up (walking on top of them and such).  But it sounds like you're talking about something else.  Do you mean if I'm looking at an image in Paint.NET and that image has horizontal lines than Megaman would be able to walk on the horizontal lines in the image?  That would be possible, but not terribly easy.  I'm not sure how well it work if you scrolled and stuff like that though.

Who knew a They Might Be Giants reference could have so much power?

Thanks!  Was there anything in particular that made him feel "in beta"?  Did you have any problems or was it just that he doesn't do too much yet?



Some of the things I want to add include:
  • Jumping/Dashing
  • Jumping off walls
  • Interaction with more than just the task bar
  • Maybe have enemies to interact with?
  • Have different suits
  • If you drop Megaman from too high he dies and beams in somewhere else
  • Be able to throw Megaman (how fast your mouse is moving when you let go of him determines his trajectory)

Any other improvements anyone can think of?
