Avid Mega Man fan Peter Sjostrand brings us another look at his Mega Man 2.5D fan-game, an attempt to render MM2 in 3D...sort of. This particular footage shows off the intended co-operative mode:
I'm curious to know what he's using to program this game. If he is using DirectX or OpenGL, this guy is no doubt a pro programmer. Although, even if he is using something already incuding an extensive library, I would still have to say he does have both talent and sense.
@Anon, Peter Sjostrand seems to be a professional animator. If anyone could make something look good, his line of work could. As for the DirectX/OpenGL comment, you might want to email him directly to find out.
Yeah it's lookin' pretty good so far, I'd say! A two player co-op sidescroller Megaman game's just what I've been waiting for. I liked Power Battle and Fighters, but this is gonna be pretty cool! Any word on when it might be released?
This looks pretty good, and I liked the first video he made a while back. I will admit, however, that the 2-player co-op is a bit gimmicky, although I think it would be awesome once fully implemented into a game.
Still, for now it looks like no game exists and that these are just professional animations, but I'm hoping that he (or someone) is actually working on a title like this in their spare time, or at least considering doing so.
I'm not a pro programmer by any means, but I would think a game like that *could* be easy to do. If you put it on rails, 2-d like he has it and have left & right triggers that flip the world in that direction. Basically everything moves in a straight line, no diagonals. But again, I have like 0 graphics programming experience.

Snakeman isn't in Megaman 2!
But holy cow, that looks so awesome.
Wow, that's truly amazing. I really wish a game like this were made officially by capcom. Much kudos to the creator. Very, very well done.
it did say co-op based on megaman 3, which snakeman is in.
Looks amazing, why does capcom not do anything with this guy!
Awesome! I am drooling. Capcom should do that in the near future like that. It is so Klonoa like!!!!
I can't wait to play this.
So wait this is actually going to be a real fan game?
I want to hug this guy if it is.
Capcom could take a lesson or two from this guy!

It's not a playable game, it's an animation made in Maya.
He said it himself in the comments of his previous video.

I wouldn't mind Capcom adopting this project and turning this into an XBL/PSN/WiiWare game. Amazing work.

That's awesome! Too bad the only 2 player Mega Man games are spin-offs like Power Battle and Soccer and mini-games like the "secret" in MM7...
Capcom wouldn't even have to use 8-bit sprites to do a nice 2.5D megaman. I could go for a pretty-looking 2.5D Megaman.

That is by far the coolest Mega Man fan game....ever! Capcom needs to hire that guy RIGHT NOW.
The Co-op was very interesting!
