Its kind of a Mega Man clone. I'm having a blast writing it. It forced me to learn how to do basic pixel art, but it has highlighted the fact that I have no idea how to design levels or sound and music.
Anyway here it is. Feel free to let me know what you like or don't like about the gameplay. Seeing as that's all there is. Also, any tips for how or where to learn to make chip tune style music and sound effects would be awesome. There is some opengameart music in there but I muted it, and will be replacing it with original stuff as soon as i learn how to make it.

I'll be tagging them with a (year month day) to keep track of updates.
Update 2017-05-27
- complete GUI overhaul
- enemy spawners
- level work
- sub weapon system

Update 2017-09-25
Its all but a full game now.
- 16 levels over 4 acts
- A Boss Fight
- Music by Eric Skiff http://ericskiff.com/music/
Working on
- Re arrange the music
- Refined Sprite work, give each enemy a more distinct look.
- character select; just palette swaps and a “prince”, the kid likes picking from the different colored princesses, I might connect the palette swaps to the different sub weapons like mega man.
- general balancing
item drops rates
enemy damage and placement
etc.
