Gameplay

This play begins again what made the success of Megaman 1 on Nes: the first levels can be traversed in the direction chosen by the player. With each time a boss is killed, Megaman recovers its weapon, and once the first 8 finished levels, Megaman must face the fortress of Wily (divided into several levels), with in premium fighting again the first 8 boss. Each boss is also sensitive to weapons of other boss.

But it innovates on several points:

it has no more 6 but 8 there boss before the fortress, which will become the standard.
the system of points is abandoned.
the cans of energy which make it possible to recover points of life once used.
a system of password not to start again the play each time (on the other hand the fortress of Wily must be made of a draft, no password does not make it possible to start again in the middle of one of its levels)
When certain boss are overcome, in addition to the weapons, Megaman can recover capacities which can help it and which are in the shape of accessories that it can use (however these objects consume energy as a weapon of boss). In the following versions, that will be Rush which will play this part. In this opus it there a:

a platform which advances straight
a platform which assembles
a platform which climbs with the wall
