The only major danger to the player during any of the eight initial levels comes in the form of pitfalls and spike traps. Stages can be completed with a certain ranking, based upon how much damage you take and dish out as well as how many attacks you can chain. You’re encouraged to be fast and efficient, a call-back to the excellent Mega Man X games, but there are barely any rewards for doing so - other than getting to the next section in a quicker time. It’s unfortunate, however, that they are few and far between and to get to them the player must navigate what amounts to a fairly by-the-numbers platforming section with enemies, strategies and design almost shamelessly pulled from Mega Man. Frantic and enhanced by some excellent background music, these sections are by far and away the best part of Mighty No. The player can achieve this by performing a dash-style move when foes are stunned to absorb their “Xel” energy.īoss battles are key parts of the game, where Beck can defeat and absorb abilities from other “Mighty” numbers that have gone rogue.
Much like Mega Man, Beck shoots projectiles out of his hands and can steal abilities and weapons from defeated enemies. Players control an android named “Beck”, helping it to stop a robot rebellion alongside his creator Dr. 9 blends both 2D and 3D artwork and animation to give the player a sense of world-depth that Mega Man didn’t have. 9 as another cautionary tale in backing kickstarter projects.įocused on 2D platforming and aping the style of its inspirational series, Mighty No. Inafune took a hit to his credibility as a result and a number of people have already labelled Mighty No. Despite this the game has taken some time to actually release, having been delayed multiple times. 9 met its initial kickstarter goal of $900,000 in just two days. 9.Ĭonsidered by some (probably prior to its release) as the spiritual successor to Mega Man due to the involvement of Keiji Inafune, character designer and project lead for the older series, Mighty No. That cauldron of emotions and disappointment probably comes somewhere close to how Mega Man fans will feel playing Mighty No. She then told me she was set to go out with someone else and wouldn’t be changing her mind.
Imagine my wondrous surprise when she revealed she shared those feelings. After a year so of will-they won’t-they I got quite drunk at a house party and told her that I fancied her. We hung out most days, spent most evenings chatting to each other. When I was in secondary school I really liked this girl. Reviews // 2nd Aug 2016 - 7 years ago // By Alex Hamilton Mighty No.
