DESCRIPTION:
***WARNING!!! EPILEPSY TRIGGER, BRIGHT FLASHING LIGHTS***
You can use background layer enable/disable hotkeys in SNES9X or other emulators to temporarily remove layers, but play at your own risk.
More than a simple randomizer, this hack by χ seems to blend the perfect amount of good and terrible physics tweaks, as well as a terrifyingly challenging boss route that even the greatest of Megaman X veterans would suffer at the hands of. With so much changed, it matters very little having no difference in stage layout, because the physics are changed every stage retains a fresh, thematic feel and provides adequate difficulty throughout the game.
“A neon Kaizo Megaman X fever dream”
An excellent challenge for long-time Megaman X players and newcomers alike, this game is sure to provide a frustratingly fun time to all who dare attempt it.
Edit: There is a glitch where the Final Boss’s first form sometimes becomes unable to interact with the player. It is recommended to save state at the fourth and final Sigma stage. 😉
Note: Be sure to patch Revision A (Also called Rev 1, in some cases), otherwise called the v1.1 version of the US release.
