Mega Man X Code Red is now open source - Final build showcase 

A real shame. We don't see many fangames in 32 bits AND with Axl. I was really excited to see it come to fruition.

Even if it got cancelled, huge props for making it open source, it opens the doors for anyone willing to continue it, will look forward to your new project!

Very nice dude, thks so much for releasing this. Coincidentally, i had said a few days ago in public, referring to the fangame creators who gave up on their projects, if they all released the sources so that other developers could eventually continue the development, we would already have at least five projects completed.

very sad to see Code Red leave, but also very excited for your upcoming X project. good luck on your future endeavors!

better to allow the project going open source and prevent things getting lost, to anyone whom wish to continue and possibly make a complete 32 bit X7 I wish you and/or your team luck.

Alas, this great game doesn't end with a bang, but with Axl's Squished Idle Sprite...

7:02 so he would basically act as an Metal Slug/Contra character? That's an Amazing idea!

As much as I still believe that your approach to completely revamp X7 was the correct direction, it's good to see you haven't left making games entirely. Hopefully someone with the know-how can continue Code Red while you make the fantastic-looking new game the best it can be!

Seriously... *thank you so much* for making this piece of art! It's quite rare to someone nailing the X4 aesthetic with such a maestry! Hopefully other artists can pick the project up, or get inspired in their own MMX-related projects. I wish all the good luck on your next projects...! And once again, thank you. 8)

Hope someone with talent takes the Open source and does something cool with.... if not, i'll save it in my hard drive and work on it in 4 years

Nice to see a project postmortem document like that. Even with a clear direction, developing games is hard. I hope things go more smoothly with your new project.

IDK why but Axl just squashing and stretching while trying to crouch is the funniest thing I've ever seen.

this honestly looks incredible and BIG ups to you for open sourcing it! can't wait to see what else you put out :D

Now that was some great work, kinda sad Core Red was cancelled and so the other Score Attack project, but i'm happy you're feeling more comfortable with this new project you're on. Also love how Axl crouch animation is just S Q U I S H.

cool to see the project has only pivoted, and itsn't completely gone. The work you guys have put in thus far is already somethin rare to see. Can't wait to see where ya go from here!

God, the sprite-work is gorgeous, the animations are smooth, and the balances put in place are all very reasonable! I hope you go through with the boss phases idea, cause I think what you had is amazing! Cannot wait to see what else is in store!

that snes mega man x specially going up the wall looks amazing at the end there, thank you so much for making it open source

RU-vid recommended this video to me via notification and I'm impressed by the work involved in this project. I love Mega Man games so much.

I’m excited to see what your new original game will be like! I’m very looking forward to it!

Ok, muito legal saber que isso virou uma engine, muito melhor do que projetos que jogam tudo fora, estarei animado esperando pelo seus futuros projetos

This is genuinely a very cool video and I'm happy you showed this to us even if it was cancelled. Mega Man X7 is one of my favorite bad video games and I've wanted to make a game for it ever since I've put so much research into the game. I LOVE the idea of putting a reploid in need of rescue behind a challenge room that you could complete. Reminds me of the stage in X8 that put you in several challenge rooms and rewarded you for how well you did. Or the one from X5. Looking forward to the new Mega Man X game you're developing for sure! This is very inspiring.

I gotta say, you did amazing on what IS there for this build. The player controller seems super fluid and snappy, much like the x4 to x6 games. Menuing also is REALLY clean. hopefully you get to re-use some of it in your new game!

BRO THIS LOOKS AMAZING!!!🔥

You definitely nailed down the feel of PS1 era X physics. Just watching this video I can picture a PlayStation controller in my hands controlling this perfect. I agree with your logic in "why not just make my own x game" I look forward to seeing what you produce.

I did loved the idea of only 2D x7... but anyways, best wishes for you to make this as awesome as it looks

good luck with your new project, thats a really nice spritework tho

Those challenge rooms looked sick. I really do like a lot of the changes you made from X7, but I understand if things turned out this way.

Whoa, you're making a 2D version of X7? I mean it seems like there's more to it than that but that's essentially what this is? That's mad cool man, much respect. I may actually be able to play and ENJOY X7! Also, nice choice of stage music. I love the Command Mission OST and that track fits real well for the little training area you have. Edit: my ass just read the description. LoL. Sad that this got canceled, great to hear you've got something else in the works though! This is dope man I would feel proud of it if I was you no doubt :)

Wow the frog enemy at 4:18 looks cool, almost 3D. How'd you sprite it?

thank for sharing this my friend, this mean the world to me

its sad to see code red leave, but I believe the future is bright. I love the animations for X on your next projects and will make sure to keep my eyes on it :)

A little disappointed to see Code Red cancelled. Not as many people showing love for the PSX style in the way you do here so me and my brother were very excited to find out about it. Had no idea it was cancelled so long ago. Glad to see your work is at least getting released as is. I can tell a lot of effort went into what's there. Hope your new game continues to make progress. I'm sure it will be amazing with your attention to detail. Looking forward to it.

Good luck with your next project! Also 10:25 animation looks sick

thank you, it’s a useful framework that will led more 32 bit projects based on yours

Tbf if it wasn't for your first video i would've never dipped my toes in to fangame making kinda glad that happened Hope everything goes well with that snes fangame you are making

Wow this was insanely impressive

The wait was worth it, but seeing this as the end of code red is really sad. I am looking forward to your next project!

I was wondering what happened with Code Red since that last video. It's a shame that it was cancelled, but I appreciate that you decided to make it open source. Also, the video is very interesting, I really enjoyed seeing how the project was planned in the beggining and how it changed with time. Thank you for taking the time to do this and I'm really looking forward to this new project you are developing!!

the baddle has jusd begunn

Good luck with your new proyect, i hope ends well and somebody can take your engine to create a new game

All of this is very impressive, even when unfinished. I am very interested in that new game you are making.

If you're interested my take, reimagining is necessary when you're looking to convert a game from one format into a completely different one, especially if the original wasn't especially robust or fully-featured. Take Sonic Triple Trouble 16 Bit for instance. I'm sure the deviations you had planned were in good faith. Nonetheless, I'd encourage you to make what you want, and if that's an original game, go right ahead.

Incrible, continues the good work. Nice game

any reason you couldnt use the sprite set of your prototype starting @12:17 for the new game? they look great

show case looks good hopefully we can this game released since we will never see megaman x corrupted completed

this looks sick AF, are the physics custom? or did you manage to replicate the ps1 ones?

thank you!!!

Hello Dr. Doofus, thank you for sharing the project. I have 1 question: How can i make the character sprites fit perfectly in Godot frame? currently i am working on adding Axl to the roster but unlike unity sprite, i have the "Sprite Inconsistent" problem when trying to make the animation due to the sprite are splitted unequally. So can you give me a hint on how you made Zero and Axl sprite fit in frame so perfectly ??? Thank you

Oh My!🖤

Sad to see the news. But I'm looking forward to your new X project. It said that the game will based on SNES Era, I hope you would consider on making new sprite for X's stance pose since it looks dated by now. Maybe something more like how X stand in Mega Man X Corrupted. It looks so good. Good luck on your development!

A Zero changing stances, thus changing weapon loadout, would be cool; basically you can change from his X4-5, X6 and X8 stances, (kinda like DMC 3-5 Dante’s Styles) changing idle animation and weapons used from those games, or from Code Red

In spite of the troubles through development and messyness might lie on the project files, this is a pretty incredible thing to have on open source! What are the limits for this source code? Are we allowed to use it in our own projects even commercially (at a point where there'd be no Megaman IP left on it, naturally)? I might be dumb but I can't find anything on it around.

extremely intelligent to make it open source instead of being ultra prideful and letting the project die out. At least with this being open source, somebody will probably finish it or use it as a base for other fan games

7:01 That's a funny little joke with the copy ability sound effect. I figure it's just a place holder but still thought it was a funny reference. It's a cool concept for the copy ability. Reminds me of the Zero Knuckle from Zero 4

Never heard of Project Code Red and this seems really neat. A shame you cancelled it, but I get it. I want to make a MMX fan-game too but I plan to be X9 in a way and set up the events for MMZ. What is the Open Source for? Game Maker Studio? Godot? Unity? I’ll take a look at it when I get home. Best of luck on the new X Game Project.

I hope you make more of concept of the game 🎮 before it's done in the future.

May I ask which website can I get these megaman audio sources from? If I alse want to make fangame like this. Thanks!

This is insane

Se veía muy interesante

Cool I love mmx fan games so much.

You could use some kind of "select background music"

8:10 Climbing on Afterburner O_O , would it be reasonable if climbing on those afterburners get HURT?

As developer myself, I understand the frustation of being in development hell.. but i still want to say thank you for sharing to all us. for us who was borned during 2000s we all keep imagining how cool if megaman can do this and that.. seeing able to switch between zero and x itself was so cool. hope all the best for the future

Dude thats a awesome project made in godot, looks so sick and promising, congratulations for the release.

An awesome masterpiece a true megaman x7 with a X4 and 6 style... A true masterpice become reality, god bless you my friend and a hope coming soon a best and true megaman X7.

Who knows, maybe the person who did the X8 16 bit SNES demake can pick up on this, check that out if you haven’t, all the stages are completed all that’s left is the endgame stages. Also wanna give you extra credit for showing Axl some love, he’s like the Silver the Hedgehog of Megaman.

Omg were you really trying to make x1 remake that's crazy. If someone wants to continue with that idea, pls post videos about it so people can contact and support with sprite making (me, for example).

Who do you have on your team for your new project?

Gracias por el esfuerzo ojala alguien pueda algun dia hacer de este juego una realidad

"The 3D gameplay was the whole point of X7, removing it would turn it into X4 with Axl and a character swap." Yeah, the game would be good in that case, at least gameplay wise, we're aware of that.

11:34 5:48 11:44 11:50 11:59 Excellent game, nice explosions and feel. The music of X is just epic

Made me kinda wish the Blade Armor reappeared in X7 in the same vein as the Fourth Armor in X5 and The Falcon Armor in X6. Nontheless, sad that I only now know about MMXCR and that it's leaving. At least it's open source.

I liked x having a saber and zero being able to fire and charge his buster, at least for zero it gives him a ranged option, but x doesn't benefit much from it, maybe his saber could do as much damage as a charged shot for it to be more useful

ESTA HERMOSO WEONNN

Y’know, I’d see slash beast as a tutorial kind of use, like Dragoon in x5.

I could any problems on making changes on core problematic stuff of x7 to better suit 2d.man, it is x7, people want to be changed, and keep at base to remember at least, sadly got canceled, but happy that source it is open to be continued and finished bys someone else, and hope your adventures continues

It is always good to have original content, tbh, a soul for a soul. Just don't overwork yourself, focus on your scope.

Megaman x7 was the game I played the most of all X games (funnily enough, is the worst, but its the one Its been on my heart since my childhood XD) And to the characters to the very menu, they give me a sense of both Nostalgia and a sense of "HOLY, IS THIS WHAT X7 COULD HAVE BEEN LIKE?" It makes me sad that this project couldn't go any further, but just by having it here open source opens a lot of possibilities, I loved the fan-game project, hope to see someone finishing it in the further.

Es increíble. Cuenta de X?

Nice work. I had the idea of doing something like this, but tbh, the life of being a family man and provider does not allow me for a lot of free time. I might tinker with your project, tho.

Well at least you put out whatever you did have done out to the public so thats nice, sad to see the project die but if you dont want to continue it so be it, i know how you feel.

As someone who grew up playing X7, I always thought that the idea of it ever receiving a 2D remake was a bit silly, because as you also wrote in your video at one point, the 3D segments and AXL were the only new additions that X7 brought to the series, and losing the 3D segments would basically make it lose its identity, what I always hoped for would have happened instead, is that a group created something like the Megaman X5 or X6 addendum rom hack, to make tweaks such as making Zero's saber attacks faster and that sort of stuff, and if they also let you use the japanese dub instead of that awful english dub similar to what the X Legacy collection 2 did, then that would have also been a bonus, as after playing the addendum versions of X5 and X6 I feel that they have become fixed and are actually very enjoyable, instead of the buggy unfinished playable messes that they used to feel like, and I can also say the same for the X3 Zero project romhack too, as that game went from being my least favorite SNES game, to becoming my favorite SNES X game since I can play with Zero from start to finish, and with the new game plus mode that had been added to that, I can enjoy having Golden Armor X with the beam saber, in the same save file as black armored Zero.

❤❤❤

I mean I woulda been happy for an x4 version of x7 with character swap 🤷🏾‍♂️ Appreciate ur creative integrity tho hehe

That’s a shame this came to an end, because I was really on board with all the ideas you had, like DKC style bonus rooms and Contra/Aria of Sorrow style power ups for Axl. Also all the X1 assets wouldn’t go to waste if you sticked with X7, cuz X7 wouldn’t stop referencing X1 amIright

What if you add vile as a playable character but hes solo

Por favor que terminen el fangame, seria increible tener un demake del mega man x7 que es el que mas le hacia falta y del mega man x8

Mega Man X7 needs an SNES demake.

10:25 *DRAGON INSTALL!*

Capcom could hire Megaman fan gamer creators it would be good for fans to have more games

cool game but what's about keyboard setup because it doesn't work with the game

5:42 honestly I don't think it would be pace breaking, since 20XX has something similar and it's great. The fun of the X series also comes from going in different hidden places braching from the main path to find items, this is not far from that imo.

X must be drinking Mountain Dew

Haha I know the moment X used that bouncy thingy, I remember it being Godot

Perfeito

Shame the game ended up getting canned, but I wish you the best of luck with your new MMX project Good quality MMX fangames that get actually finished are a rare breed so fingers crossed your new project turns out more fruitful!

9 de mayo del 2706 😮casi la perfección lo fue un todo Está vels es estuvimos en una base de entrenamiento virtual en algún coliseo de gresia😮 Con el temor de no perdernos😅

4:13 ost ?

A shame... but releasing the git was a very noble decision. I'll make sure it does not goes to waste. In fact I'll have lots of questions to ask. Is there a communication channel, if you're willing to answer some questions? :)

Oh poor AXL
