Game made using C++ in Visual Studio.
Mega Man Unlimited is a fan-game by MegaPhilX. Music is provided by Kevvviiinnn, ThunderThouin and MegaPhilX. Direction, Art and Game Design is by MegaPhilX and Programming is by Jean-Simon Brochu, Gabriel LeBlanc, Jocelyn Perreault.
The game follows the classic Mega Man series. It mimics the 8-bit NES Mega Man games gameplay and overall design. It is similar to Mega Man 9 in design philosophy and of course, inspired by CAPCOM.
Since Mega Man 9 is very much inspired by Mega Man 2, Mega Man Unlimited draws
of subtle similarities to Mega Man 3.
Plot.In the year 20XX AD,
Dr Wily’s robots are rampaging through the world once again but the evil scientist shows up and confesses to Dr light that he didn’t want his robots to go berserk and has no clue why this is happening. Maybe he is not so evil after all...
Working with Dr Wily, Dr light finds out that a mysterious force is controlling Wily’s robots. But before having the time to think twice, a mysterious robot fires a shot at Mega Man and in a flash, kidnaps Dr Wily and teleports away.
MegaMan sets out to battle Wily’s creations once again, hoping to find out the truth about this mystery...
Mega Man Controls.Mega Man controls just like the 8-bit NES games. Here are Mega Man’s basic moves:
The game should use any PC controller as well as the keyboard if the user doesn’t have a controller.
- Run – Press LEFT or RIGHT on the directional pad.
- Jump – Press the JUMP button.
- Fire Mega Buster – Press the ATTACK button. (Up to 3 shots on-screen at once.)
- Slide – Hold DOWN on the directional pad + Press the JUMP button.
- Charge Mega Buster - Hold down the ATTACK Button to charge up the Mega Buster and release to shoot. (Unlocked by beating the game once and entering a cheat at the title screen.)
The game avoids including the charge shot feature from the beginning to remain true to the early Mega Man games and force the player to use his weapons in a clever way. The charge shot makes many special weapons useless since it is so powerful.
Structure.MMU will be comprised of 13 stages.
8 Robot Master Stages:
- Jet Man Stage.
- Tank Man Stage.
- Nail Man Stage.
- Nitro Man Stage.
- Glue Man Stage.
- Rainbow Man Stage.
- Comet Woman Stage.
- Yo-Yo Man Stage.
1 Secret Robot Master Stage:
- Yoku Man Stage. (Designed by StarsimsUniverse.)
4 Wily Captured Castle Stages.

There will definately be an official soundtrack released sometime around the time MMU is finished, but for now, here are some of the tracks found on Youtube by the game's various song artists. Be aware that some of these tracks may have altered since these early versions or changed completely.
INTRO.The Tracks from the Intro include:
- City, Work Together and Crisis.
The old versions of these tunes can still be heard in Phils old "Mega Man Unlimited - Story Intro" Video.
TITLE.- The Title Track has changed many times during the course of the last 5 years. This is the latest version shown online. But is not the final version, to be sure.
(However, there is a sneak peek at the new Title theme in the last few seconds of the new Trailer. From 1:49 onwards.)
STAGE SELECT, TANK MAN, BOSS THEME, WEAPON GET.- The Old Stage Select Theme can be found in this video. Tank Man's original Theme, The Boss Theme and the Weapon Get theme can also be found here.
JET MAN.- This is Jet Man's old theme. I hear that it has been recently changed, who knows what it will sound like now?
NAIL MAN.- This is the most recent version online of Nail Man's Theme. This one has been through many changes too and the final version is quite different to this too.
TRINITRO MAN.- Again, another tune that has gone through quite a change since this version was put online. Quite a few surprised instore once the official soundtrack is released.
YOKU MAN.- The dreaded Theme Tune to Yoku Man's stage. Don't Trust Your Eyes... and ears as these theme fwooops along while you play.
GLUE MAN.- A funky tune I've always liked, the music really does sound like its dripping.
RAINBOW MAN.- One can only fathom the horror in store when you play this level. The Quick Man beams have returned!
COMET WOMAN.- The ice cold beauty and her spacey theme tune!
YO-YO MAN.- The tune voted the favourite among fans of MMU. It even made it as the Trailer's music.
GAME OVER THEME.- Its inevitable, all beginner players of MMU will hear this theme at least once.
CAPTURED WILY CASTLE INTRO AND STAGE 1.- What terror awaits you in the first stage on the final stretch? Who has kidnapped Wily and why?
CAPTURED WILY CASTLE BOSS THEME.- Its a Wily Stage Boss! What could it possibly be? These bosses are some of the best kept secrets of the game and they're awesome and epic too!
CAPTURED WILY CASTLE STAGE 2.- Deeper and deeper you go into the castle.
CAPTURED WILY CASTLE STAGE 3.- I love how each stage song gets more and more foreboding as you get deeper into the castle. Its as if this adventure won't end well....
CAPTURED WILY CASTLE STAGE 4.- The final stage. The Boss Gauntlet. You know the deal. But who is the final Boss?
UNKNOWN SONG.- This song is a mystery. Is it end credits music? A secret Stage? Or Something else?
MEDLEY.- Kevvviiinnn's awesome medley of all the levels.
