Woohoo, now we're getting to the fun stuff! Not to give the food chain away, but I think anybody can take the time to guess it. Also keep in mind this is different from that recent puzzle battle game for the mobile phone, and I did NOT just copy and paste that stuff onto here, apparently. This stuff is meant to look EXACTLY like the original sprites, detail-wise, but meant to be seen up close. ...I still wonder what the heck they were thinking when they decided to give the eskimo that weirdass lip... and having an arm sticking out of his head for that matter.

Ever since the beginning of the end of the 8-bit era, Capcom has made one attempt after another to give their mascot a new coat of paint, but for some reason, none of them could even come close to being as good as the original NES titles. It seems like you can't have a good Mega Man game without having a bunch of bug-eyed, big-headed, stubby-handed little people frolicking all over the place... and are actually able to outrun freaking bullets! ...with their BUTTS. It's so dorky and it completely defies the laws of physics, and yet that's what makes the series so awesome somehow. The better reason they went back to that style in 9 and 10. I would pretty much desribe it along the lines of dorkily awesome and awesomely dorky.
Anyways, I kind of got an idea for this thing after I saw some videos for Mega Man Universe. What they're essentially doing is basically sucking out all the "squareness" while retaining the 8-bit feel from the glory days. I'm kind of doing that here too, but I'm more leaned towards a full blown 2-D standpoint rather than 2.5-D. It's a style I like to call ∞-bit. It's like a version of 8-bit that shows about as much detail as a bunch of tiles could, but has a much smoother way of doing so by far.
Knock yourself out.


Disclaimer just to be safe: Characters belong to Capcom blah blah blah. That should be pretty obvious.
