Description:
Megaman 1 - The New Lands is a complete romhack of Megaman 1 (not Rockman 1). It features custom levels, custom robot masters, new musics, original art for every stage, modified weapons, enemies and bosses behaviors, faster megabuster shooting and increased shots limit, no knockback after getting damage, removes the deceleration of Megaman, making him stops instantly after the player stop pressing left or right, the most annoying enemies were nerfed, modified damage for each weapon, etc.
V 1.1: Some bugs and other issues were fixed (like the softlock in TintMan’s stage, the invisible spike on the red path of the stage, glitchy sprites after spawning in Wily 1’s first checkpoint and the non solid wall on Dyna Man’s stage), and a few sections were nerfed to be less frustrating without Magnet Beam.
V 1.2 The game has been completely revamped in every way (some parts more than others). Expect a much more creative and fun adventure than older versions. There are two patches. “Default”, the normal one, and “No Skid”, which removes Megaman’s deceleration when you stop running.
Enjoy~

A good hack, but...
Reviewed By: ForteErick on 28 Nov 2020I enjoyed it quite a bit, none of the robot master levels were too crazy hard and had good enemy placement, where you can see what an enemy does first from a safe distance and then react to them. The music is a nice change too with it being remixed of other game themes and the bosses aren’t too difficult to battle against and the damage you take and they take is balanced.
The biggest problem I face was in the wily stages, there were some tough jumps to do where it feels like you have very little room for error, and that you can potentially die in every room before the boss fights but those shouldn’t be a problem if you’re careful.
The most annoying and in my opinion worst part of the game was a certain part of one of the wily stages, where you gotta keep moving forward and jump on small platform where it feels like it goes on forever, and before that it has some extremely tight jumps, the only thing that makes it bare able us that you basically get retries since you spawn in a room with an extra life but that doesn’t make it as fun to play over and over again
But over all besides that it really fun and a nice change with the new bosses, music, levels and weapons
