Gameplay  style
This game will play a lot like Xmen on sega genesis it will be a platformer styled beatem up with a lot of twists.. You can do everything you can on xmen sega but you can also combo each char will have 2 modes example emma diamond form / psy form  armor normal mode and armor mode.. All playable characters are in the process of being sprited or already sprited except Northstar so if anyone wants to make him I can send a base.. Also if anyone is interested in ripping stages, or making enemies or bosses let me know..

Story
The story will be an original story with comic book cutscenes

[ZVitor]

it wll be a 2d plataform game right?
you can check a lot of castlevania stages around,
or even remake some of x-men mutant apocalypse snes stages, would be great be there again.

how will be beast and cyclops 2 modes?

[esn23]

Cyclops will have a hand to hand combat mode with small optic blasts for free specials his second mode will be optic blast mode similar to spiderman xmen game he can shoot in all directions and his specials for that mode will be huge optic blasts like on mvc.  Beast will have an acrobatic/mele mode and a gadget mode. Another example is pixie she will have a pixie/pixie dust mode this mode will have hand to hand and specails will have to do with her pixie dust powers and then soul dagger/magic mode which she will use her soul dagger and use magic to summon demons from limbo and teleport .

she will have a nightcrawler styled teleport the first part is her vanishing in the portal the middle part is where you can control where she goes

[esn23]

these girls will be almost final bosses they will be causing a ton of trouble in the game they are original characters and half sisters called Despair and Pandora.  What do you guys think.

[Uche_of_IMT]

They look menacing. Are they working for someone?

[O Ilusionista]

Emma could be saw here:

Besides she will play a little different on this game.

After I finish Emma, if you need me to code Brand, just send it to me.

[esn23]

Yes both those girls are indeed working for the big bads
I fixed all of brands errors and finished up her sheet today now im starting on the last playable char

It's Northstar and he will have quite a unique moves set

[O Ilusionista]

Can't wait

[cristiano]

Pixie this wonderful.
Good Work. 

[esn23]

Okay so these are the finished helpers the idea came from xmen on sega genesis you find a random icon of the player hidden in the level then you can summon them.  So far there is 10 finished helpers can anyone guess who they all are. 

Currently Im working on elixer and supa is working on dazzler.  I think we want about 20 helpers for the entire game so that the random icons can have varity.  If someone wants to make a helper here is a list of the ones that I want to include for the game.
Danger
Surge
Sage
Meggan
Captain Britain   
Mutipleman
Longshot
Warpath
Shatterstar

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

awesome work bruh!

yo that Meggan base is workable man. If can come up with some ideas for her specials and such let me know other than that i will use what was given to me .. 

[esn23]

More helpers first one is Capitan Britain (working on him now) second is the xmen elixir who will be a healing helper as blood bane requested he is done.  Third is dazzler by supa she will flash the screen white and stun all enemies she is also done.

[Geekinell]

this looks fantastic!

[HyperVoiceActing]

Those sprites look excellent comrade

[Geekinell]

id love to help if i could??

[esn23]

id love to help if i could??

That would be great.  As far as playable chars they are all almost sprited except the 2 very secret chars I wont reveal until people play the game   I do need however bosses enemies and such.  The enemies and bosses I need before the demo are.
Morlocks - Male and Female
Morlock Leader - Either Calisto or Marrow or both (Pm me to get the correct costumes)
Prime Sentinels Male and Female
Drones and other trap like enemies like guns on walls and such

I will for sure need a ton more bosses and enemies but I want to try to get the demo out soon so I later need Xmen for bosses and other iconic enemies and bosses.

Btw Storm got a design upgrade


Also the final look of the select screen is done.  There will be mupitple select screen depending on what choices you make is who you unlock and you wont be able to unlock all chars in one play through.


All the helpers are done these helpers work just like xmen on genesis you can find their tokens hidden through the stage and when you get their token you can use it.  There will be all kinds of different types of helpers some assist you some attck enemies etc.

[Uche_of_IMT]

Wow! That great! How close are you to completing this game?

[esn23]

All playable characters are done and the first few stages are being coded for a demo.  The demo will have the five characters shown on the select screen as playable.  I think that the stages for the demo will be

San Francisco Night
Enemies Purifiers
Boss Sentinel

San Francisco Bart Train
Enemies Purifiers
Boss Prime Sentinal

Morlock Sewers
Enemies Morlocks
Boss Marrow and Callisto one or both

Sentinel Underground Factory
Enemies : Purifiers, Turrets, Robots and Traps
Sub Boss Sentinel Prime Male and Female
Boss Nimrod

That is what Ill try to have in the demo

[O Ilusionista]

when you mean DONE, you mean edited, right? Or the chars are already coded?
About Armor, I would like to have her on my game too. Do you think you could share her with me?

[Geekinell]

im a huge x-men fan, and the thought of an up to date versionof these low-res arcade games gives me tingles

iv already slowly started to make sprites for the more MARVEL NOW versions of the X-Men. in the off chance that someone would want to use them one day. so far iv got 3 on the go.

[NX-MEN]

wow great sprites Geekinell!! Those chars would be great to OILu's project!! More X-MEN for NX-MEN!!!!       

I prefer more classic version of Storm but i like the MARVEL NOW version too!!

[esn23]

wait those are all marvel now.. If you put a hood and cape on rouge i could use her.  Is rachel's costume only marvel now or has she had that costume in other universes? O I will have to pass on armor sorry

[Geekinell]

^^this was Rachel's costume at the time of Astonishing X-Men Vol.3 2009. My version is the Wolverine and the X-Men/Marvel NOW! version


^^and this was Rogue's costume, with a big cape.

[esn23]

Its so hard to find an image of her.. Something like this would be great for rouge.
The one with the hood and cape

Very nice, but I see some problems:
- Havok's proportions are off. his arms are way too long
- Some chars are too skinny (at least, for my project)
