It's done! Made in under 72 hours for Ludum Dare (ldjam 36). The theme was Ancient Technology, so I went with Steampunk-ish setting.

The game isn't well optimized for flash as it was intended to run on a window exe format, so please excuse some bugs and slowdown here and there.

CONTROLS!: READ THIS!
(You can edit the controls in the options menu to some alternatives)
Arrows: Move
Shift: Jump
Control: Shoot
\: Change Weapon
Space: Dash (you can also dash by pressing down and fire) (Dashing makes you invincible Dash through enemies, bosses and bullets!)

You can change the controls to different types in the options menu.

Hope you enjoy!

Now don't get me wrong, I loves me some MM clones on newgrounds, and this one LOOKS like it has potential.... but CTRL:Shoot and Shift:Jump .... that's unacceptable, as multiple strokes of those keys cause multiple versions of windows to open up dialogue boxes... dialogue boxes that don't freeze the action of the game. If there I were a menu to change the controls, I might have played further, but as it stands, it's a theoretically great MM clone that I'll never get to experience because of poor control choices that can't be changed. Disappointed.

1: It's not a mega man clone.
2: You CAN change the scheme in options, read the description.

Wow, what an impressive game. An excellent submission that fits the theme of "ancient technology" while giving us a nice nostalgia feel of retro arcade games. The game really brings back the feeling of old console/arcade games even from the main menu. The controls run smoothly, the game is relatively easy to get into, and the graphics and music are also fitting. All that made in less than 72 hours for the Ludum Dare game jam definitely deserves a top spot among games. I put it as the first game in my ludum dare let's play video right here: https://youtu.be/UP29iaz8pTs . All in all, a job well done so I hope you can continue to deliver great games.
