Project Overview

This is a Mega Man X fangame in progress.

This project was something that I technically started back in the days of Klik 'n' Play. Due to being a noob back then, I restarted the project. Then a virus ate it.

Now, finally, I am successfully working on this fangame, with hopes of it being one of the best out there!

Story:
The story takes place between X7 and X8, so Red Alert has recently been dismantled, Axl has set out to prove to X that he can be a reliable Hunter, and the bald one Sigma has been blown out of a building.
Construction on the Orbital Elevator (beta build) Jakob is currently underway, as scientists and engineers fear that robotic mishaps may once again render the Earth uninhabitable (they're getting a jumpstart). Some, however, have another idea.
Many scientists began to believe that space travel can go on infinitely as long as they have ties back to where they start their journeys (a tether back to Earth, per se). They knew, though, that the Earth did not have enough resources to power an exodus that far, and found another way to combat the problem: the T.I.M.E. machine (sound familiar?).
At the Life Research Lab in the under-construction Giga City, the T.I.M.E. machine is celebrated for it's seemingly-flawless creation. The T.I.M.E. (temporal interspatial module egg) is capable of delivering it's contents to any destination imaginable using macro-compressed high-velocity teleportation (fast movement on a large scale resulting in controlled spatial rips).
Information on this was leaked to greedy listeners.
A large riot of Mavericks began to terrorize the Life Research Lab, killing those who opposed them. Both X and Zero, along with reinforcements, are called in to investigate and eradicate.

Minor Details

I've been having very little time as of late to work on this here, but I did manage to do a couple minor things. For one, the engine testing room is much larger and has more room for feel. Secondly, I've been changing the animations for Zero's saber swings. Thirdly, I'm implementing a feature which enables you to view the technical status of each of your characters in the submenu. Not bad, really.

HUD, Heart Tanks, and Enemies

The first destroyable enemy has been implemented: the Metall. When destroyed, they even drop powerups, too!
HEART TANKS HAVE BEEN IMPLEMENTED AND WORK!
Not only that, but I've been doing some serious work on the graphics of the HUD. The boss gauge is the most noticable.
Not bad for doing this while Finals were going on.

HUD update

Changed up the design for the HUD. Personally, I like this design much better. It looks so much cleaner than the previous layout.
Also, a small example of the Vile movement.

He used to be a class-A Hunter...
