eh, Saw Man's weapon isn't exactly like Metal man's. he basically throws his saw mohawk like a frisbee which homes in on mega man for a while and then returns to saw man. It's a combination of the Rolling Cutter and any homing attack.

updated Saw Man:



spriter Nebula Black was so kind to help me out a little bit. the left version is his. Afterwards I corrected some other parts to make him look better

Yeah, better that way, but you kinda have to update the mugshots?

nah, these sprites were made to match their mug shot-counterparts more

anyways, the sheet is done:

Okay, cool sprite sheet there

gamble man is ready to re-fight!

Looks nice but the hands are in a bit weird position.

How was Mute going to be encountered in this game? Was he going to appear in some of the stages and then maybe a wily stage? Or was he going to be on all levels? If he is going to appear in one stage, I think it would make sense having him encountered in Mirrorman's stage seeing how he is in the image and likeness of Bass, plus, their music's seem sort of coincident.

Mute will be featured as the Boss of the last Mute castle stage, where you fight his first 2 forms and later on in the 3rd wily stage you encounter him again =)

we can , however, have him pop up in a cutscene in one of the stages, like MM3 did it with protoman in gemeni man's stage. Maybe he can try to attack rock and accidently shoots a wall to open the path for him.

doubleposting to show you saw man's new moves..IN MOTION!



What's left to fix: some pixel mistakes, smoother transition between standing and dashing, makeing dashing look more vivid.

So here he is, saw man. His attacks include a dash-slash and banging out Saw blades from his head, which roll on the floor first, but home in on mega man soon after. A third attack, which you cannot see here, has him firing a saw into the treetops on the ceiling of the boss room, causing branches to fall down.

I like what I'm seeing there, General. The head banging looks nicely done, I have to say.

Nice. I'm looking forward to seeing that.

By the way, don't you mean the "4th Wily stage"? I think you goofed up, there. ^_^0

First attempt to sprite in a long time:



Balance

Nice work on Balance, boss. He fits easily into the NES MM style.
