This topic is for the purpose of discussing #1472: airman2's NES Rockman Exile in 29:40.60

First of all, you should have put url to the patch in the submission so that every one wouldn't need to google it them selves. You can get the patch from here http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/101/ and you should use it on Mega Man 2 (U).nes. Secondly, hacks aren't generally allowed in this site so you should probably have talked about it before submitting a movie. (At least with Bisqwit, unless of course you have..) And now to the judging. The hack is a little too dark-ish in my opinion but i guess that's the theme if this hack :) The movie itself looked OK, though i spotted few possible mistakes. As Vatchern said in the IRC, it's a good movie but as Megaman 2 movie, it's somewhat dissappointing. I'm willing to give this one a Meh, but only if Megaman Exile gets approved for this site some day.

On one hand the hack is cool. NINJA METALMAN. On the other hand, the hack sucks for destroying MM2's awesome ending. Your gameplay seemed pretty good. There were a few spots that seemed wrong to me, most notably Flashman's level, where you shoot some of the breakable pillars yet run into others...it didn't seem logical. Will watch and fool around with some more before voting. But those are my initial thoughts.

This Megaman 2 EXILE is a hacked game. You're not allow to use the hack games, please read the Rules. That rule is not allow for hack games to create more movies.

Actually, 'hacked' games are banned, unless they are approved by the Admin. EDIT: So, I would guess that the Admin is probably reviewing the game or planning on reviewing it to come to a decision.

Hello and welcome and congratulations for your first submission. Your movie has the right idea, but it is not very well optimized. Here are some things I noticed in the first two stages. ― You avoided (some) enemies and it was very noticeable. Try to be faster and make the waits less noticeable. ― Do not bump into walls. Jump earlier. ― Walking is faster than jumping. You should minimize your jumps. ― You should jump into the pit to maximize the falling speed. It seems you learned this later, but you still weren't consistent. ― React faster. Don't stand still without a good reason. ― During zipping, you should jump here once. This puts Rockman lower, making the fall shorter. ― You should always be ready for the events of the next screen. Here, you land far from the edge. You should land closer to the edge. Now you had to walk longer than necessary. ― In Bubbleman fight, you should have manipulated the boss's behavior to avoid unnecessary delays. (Luck manipulation) ― Do not switch weapons during falling. It slows the falling speed. ― Are you aware of FinalFighter's ideas for speedrunning this game? With these ideas, you should be able to make an improved movie. However, this is not an accepted hack on this site. It may become one, if it proves popular enough. Currently it is not.

Unfortunately, I have to vote no. There were too many little errors if you ask me. I was so happy when I saw somebody had finally submitted a run for this hack, because the music is very nice and the level design is completely different from other Mega Mans. On the other hand, you zipped through lots of walls and whatnot and I honestly believe you can do that a lot more with better planning. I really hope you will consider improving your run because it would be a big shame if someone doesnt give us a good run of this game :(

om, nom, nom... blech, stale!
