rockman 2 neta

why doesn’t doctor wily just build the entire level out of spikes?

why doesn’t he make a pit so wide megaman can’t jump across?

instead of having each robot wait for megaman alone in a room, why doesn’t doctor wily just have them all jump him at once?

rockman 2 neta (direct download link) is a game built around exactly that design joke. (i’m filing this under “hack” although the game doesn’t use any of capcom’s original code, and is in fact a standalone game, because i feel rockman 2 neta is in the spirit of a hack. and hack hasn’t always meant “modifying a rom.”) and it is possible to win: that’s part of the joke.

what may or may not be part of the joke is figuring out the controls. in case you’re stuck, here’s a walkthrough: the default keys are Y, B, G and J for up, down, left and right, A and S for the A and B buttons, D for select and Q for start.

    it didn’t come from that video, it came from kids on playgrounds twenty years ago.

    but it’s relevant so it’s there now.
