Looks average
Its weird, even though fancy 2D graphics are kind of the norm when it comes to indie platformers, I think I would have preferred it here. I guess I've just never been a big fan of 2.5D in platformers.
[QUOTE=itisjuly;45253341]Looks average[/QUOTE] Honestly, as much as I REALLY want to be excited for Mighty No 9, this is my thought every time I see a video of it.
[QUOTE=itisjuly;45253341]Looks average[/QUOTE] Still 6+ months for development.

that walk animation looks so floaty

If they had hand drawn the art it could have been unique to megaman, this trailer looks like a poor version of the GC Network Battle game.
Holy shit that 2D, why did they choose not to go with that? Looks gorgeous.

I guess I've just never been a big fan of 2.5D in platformers.[/QUOTE] it's because they aren't exploiting the 3D-ness when designing the levels/backgrounds, so the levels just look bland/boring
Yeah, this is very underwhelming. I wasn't excited about it personally because I was never into Megaman, but goodness, this is nothing like the concept art and considering the budget it looks very amateur.

I loved that game, except for the Japanese-only voices. I guess I'm the odd one out here, but I like the way it looks. I always loved well designed 2.5d platformers, and this is looking really nice for how early in development it is. I really don't get why people expected it to be hand drawn like the concept art, they showed WiP models in their Kickstarter.
