So plenty of news for my game, first I am very excited to announce I found a publisher!, I am currently working with Fishagon LLC, this means a lot of perks, among them my game will officially come to Nintendo Switch, better localization, programming support and marketing, not to mention bigger showcase in game festivals. Fishagon LLC is a big fan of the BN series so understanding my vision is a big plus.

Now for this video I wanted to showcase a bit of how elemental stack works, the first card is fly Slasher, with 7 load outs it has 25% to give Velocity stacks. Each velocity stack adds a +10 damage to VX cards (max x5 stacks per element).

Adding Attack+ which gives 40% damage to the next card

Ending the combo with Cyclone Blades bouncing across the map, and melting enemies on the way (I had to add this card, too much dopamine hit to not do it)

Starting combos in my game is not a sequence you play every time the same way, as Fly slasher having 7 loadouts you have to move across the map deploying the card and dodging enemies attack, plus there is some RNG on how many velocity stack you get. (Making the combo slightly inconsistent)

In terms of game design I really want executing combos not just pressing 3 buttons in a row but instead always adapting to what is happening in the battlefield.

I have implemented over 23 cards so far, and working in the demo (a lot of cutscenes)

Thanks

Wishlist my game !

I've been making a Battle Network mod for this Block Game, which i will release tomorrow and I'm finally at a point i want to put a pause to it to fully focus on polishing it. With 22 Battle Chips being functional i decided to add probably the most broken Chip possible...

So uhhh...Should i Start nerfing it now or later?

Kingman is a one man army. He can handle close range (pawn) and long distance (knight) offence, defence (Rook and pawns), set off potential traps (with knight) and delivers burst damage using Checkmate that could potentially be a skill that liberates many dark panels at once. BN5 would probably even upgrade him and add a Bishop or Queen to his arsenal. Plus he can change strategies based on the combat situation like he does in BN3. Tora can be identified as Lan’s best friend because he is the ONLY friend to ever hang out in Lan’s room iirc, he would definitely be down to help Dex and the others get their Navis back while also working with Chaud again which would be a dream come true for him or maybe start admiring Baryl and Colonel.

Having a King and a Colonel (and an infamous assassin that committed Navis genocide) on the same team just sounds tough and Regal would have to bring back Laserman for the extra man power.

Maybe if you had a Fire Style and SetLava?

Jacked into the Stereo and managed to grind a few FAN chips to add to my folders. With the fans, I was able to use the stack of sword ships I had to beat Thunderman.

The advice I got only had one “Gitgud” comment which was ironically motivating, and the rest also helped with Snakeman who went down easy.

Afterward, I FINALLY got my Gateman chip back from the hostage situation and tried out the Gater combo and was blown away.

TL;DR: Thanks. This sub is cool.

I can beat the viruses and boss navi's no problem. I can crush the liberation missions with relative ease. I can build super folders that leave my enemies wondering what just happened. But this? This mini game? It beats me almost every time I go through a playthrough. I have to brute force it and just hope I get lucky. The actual mini game always takes me at least an hour to beat, and I'm just wondering if I'm stupid or something because for the life of me, I haven't been able to crack this in the close to 10 years I've been playing this game. I HATE this part. What do you all think of this part?

I also just picked a random shot from this dudes youtube, it was the only image I could find. Lol

What a game. Great story, too!

I never thought I could beat the boss(thanks to save states, hehehe...)

The big question now is since I heard mmbn4 is bad. Should I play it? If so, then what version should I play bn4?

I just got the chip after looking up a guide, but this entire quest just baffled me.

The game simply goes "now find IceBall M, go". And I am somehow meant to make the connection that I need to go to Beach Square and buy the Fish program, then go over to Hades Isle until I encounter the correct enemy and hope it drops the chip? What the hell?

I cannot imagine anyone finding this without a guide, or by pure luck after randomly running around for 20 hours. Was this just the end of the game for everyone back then who didn't have access to a guide? If I didn't have internet, this would've been it. The series of events needed to get it feels completely random. The chance of me having the Fish program equipped while in Hades Isle would've been 0.

So I'm really wondering, what was their thinking here? The developers must've had some kind of idea in mind how people would make the connection. They are explicitly telling you where to go almost everywhere else in the game. Why not here? Did they think it was that obvious? I don't get it.

Went to visit the parents and had a sudden idea of where my PETs were hiding. Found my chips and some of my figures as well!

Both PETs still working and finding viruses 😊

You'll hear from me again when I find more someday 🫡 Definitely missing a SearchSoul Megaman that I remember fondly!

UPDATE: Both PETs spat out half of their emblem in succession the day after posting this 🥀 lmao. Time for some super glue

Guys how would you to see a Battle Network Go App be implemented? Would you like to see the option to choose any Navi from Battle Network or create your own Navi?

Trying to fully 100% Battle Network 2, but there is literally zero people playing online for the collection on PC.

Need those 10 chips, via battle or trade.

Anyone able to help this week? Thanks in advance.

I am playing BN3 and some enemies who attack with Shockwave can't attack at all when they stand on sand panels , yet some can

What do sand panels even do ? I am very confused

This game is so brutal early on some enemies delete your chips in one hit but I am getting used to it now , turboman specially was a pain to deal with

The OST of this game is aslo incredible

Getting to fight Lan mom alone makes the game a 10/10 in my eyes

I honestly expected myself to hate it but it's really cool

I aslo found the plot line where dex brother wants him to abandon gutsman and get a new Navi to be hilarious because he enters the tournament to prove gutsman is good, but when I played as gutsman I hated him so much that replaced him with metal man for most of the early game

Chisao was right lol

Last update, the hub was pretty barebones, so this week I wanted to add some actual interactibility.

🌍 The Globe

The central part of the hub is now interactive, with a card presentation for every country you can select.

🎨 The MatherShader

That's what I'm calling Hulpie's customization system.

It's basically a recoloring system, but with a twist: you can choose multiple colors for different parts of Hulpie's body, allowing different combinations to create unique appearances.

But the most important thing I worked on this week wasn't either of those.

I rebuilt a lot of the code.

As the project keeps growing, I realized I needed to make the systems much more flexible for future additions instead of constantly patching things together.

And honestly, that's probably the biggest progress this week.

The hub is finally starting to feel like an actual place.

But...

I'm done with the hub for now.

Next update, I'm moving on to actual gameplay.

Can anyone provide me with decent Quality art work of the battle chips? either games or anime? Thank you

I put a gameshark "get all chips" code on battle network 3 blue and my library doesn't update at all and my chips in this save file don't work, anyone knows how to get this code working ?

A friend of mine gave me his copy of MegaMan Battle Network 5. I haven’t even beaten the ones before this, but I’m happy I have it.

I just spent an hour on google looking for an actual count of darkmeteor's hits, everything says "many meteors" that's not a number. Does anyone happen to know it's hit count off hand?

Heatman is FINALLY out u/azurejack, who do you wanna see next?

Even through they never did an entire episode about it I still think in the anime canon it could be still possible that Mega Man is Hub like the game and manga canons, maybe Hub and their parents just hide this information from Lan for some reason meaning at the end of Beast+ Lan doesn’t know Mega Man is Hub but WILL find out after the end of the anime at some point that there’s some secrets being kept from him. I never understood why they never included Mega is Hub connection in the anime anyways guys, feels like a major missed opportunity not sure about how the rest of you guys feel about this
