Hey MM Fans!
I'm developing an action platformer built to play just like Mega Man X, but with random levels/powerups/permadeath (roguelike) andfull multiplayer (online and local).
It's called Echoes of Eridu, and we're deep into our alpha. We recently launched on Kickstarter, too.
We're initially targeting a release on Windows at the end of this year, and will port to Mac/Linux after that (and consoles, if Nintendo/MS/Sony will have us.)
Here are some videos/screens of gameplay:

We recently showed the game at PAX East, and have been getting a lot of great press about it. A few nice things people have been saying about us:
"Echoes of Eridu is arguably the definitive indie action-platformer currently in development. The game’s tight controls, great visual style and roguelike level generation offer some of the most enjoyable gameplay in recent memory." - Ray Porreca, Entertainment Buddha
"Echoes of Eridu ... is very much a celebration of everything that made Mega Man, and that genre and era of gaming, such a place of nostalgia and happiness for so many gamers." - Jacob Wood, Indie Hangover
"Echoes of Eridu is a fantastic addition to the action platforming genre." - Vinny Parisi, IGM
Let me know if you have any questions about Echoes! If you like what you see, consider hopping over to our Kickstarter. Thanks for reading and checking out our game!
