Just got word my entry qualified for the competition! I appreciate the Megaman Dual Override dev team for considering it! If you want to support Cactus Man (Design Q), throw it a vote! There's a lot of good entries though, so pick what feels right! #ロックマンDO #MegaManDO

Developer comment: "The idea of ​​using a cactus to represent the suction is interesting!"

In today's #ReviewsSundays, @heyphilsummers & @NintendoForce bring us this hand-drawn detailed guide for Mega Man (1987) and Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge (1991). In around twenty chapters, there's a brief retrospective on the release of each game, an overview of each version released, and an in-depth look at the lore through excerpts from Dr. Light's diary, descriptions of characters and enemies, as well as each object. Through the author's reinterpretations (with Capcom's approval), we're presented with a global map showing all the sections of the game, as well as individual maps for each screen, reimagining the playable limits as never before. As if that weren't enough, they're accompanied by immersive illustrations of both iconic moments and boss battles. Of course, the volume is the best ally for progressing through these challenging games, compiling the best tips and strategies (as well as the ideal order of progression).
