Description My entry in the Megaman Legends 3: PROJECT Bonne Mecha contest, where you create a boss robot for the Bonne Family to use in their fight against MegaMan. The winner will have their robot IN the MegaMan Legends 3 game for the Nintendo 3DS!


Be sure to vote for my entry when the time comes!

**CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE MML3 DEVELOPMENT ROOM FORUM THREAD ON MY CONTEST ENTRY**

MegaMan reaches the final room of the long and arduous dungeon to find a thick layer of bedrock covering the floor. The treasure must be underneath it, but what to do? Suddenly...BLAM! Out of the ceiling appears the Bonne family with their new Mecha! With it, they can drill through the floor and steal that treasure...but while they take care of that, they'll have to put an end to MegaMan once and for all! The battle begins with...

[My Bonne Mecha]
The Bonne Hydra

A triple-threat drilling robot outfitted with three heads, each one based on a member of the Bonne family and each one with its own deadly threats! The Tron head focuses on projectile attacks with a bomb-launcher from its snout and a machine-gun under its chin. The Bon head focuses on physical attacks with crushing blows from the Hydra's arms, and an extending binky from its mouth that stretches out like a snake. The Teisel head focuses on energy attacks with lasers from his eyes and a large explosive orb it forms by bringing the Hydra's arms together. The special attacks that each head is capable of pay tribute to past Bonne Mechas, combined together into the ultimate fighting machine to stop that "blue boy" from getting in their way! Beneath the Hydra's torso is a giant drill that is slowly but surely breaking through the bedrock covering the treasure. In the center of the Hydra's torso is a smoke stack, decorated to look like a Servbot, that constantly rotates as it spews fumes from the Drill's exhaust...and occasionally pops out a Servbot to chase after MegaMan and distract him from his goal...

[The Mission]
Defeat the Bonne Hydra!

The room is circular and has platforms surrounding the bedrock on the floor for MegaMan to jump around on and surround the Bonne Hydra as it constantly drills through the ground. The Hydra's three heads alternate in which one focuses on attacking MegaMan and randomize after they "take their turn" using their weapons on him. The Hydra's torso spins a few times and one head faces MegaMan, ready to strike! Each of the heads have a different health bar and bringing down all three of them defeats the Bonne Hydra as a whole. However, defeating an individual head and bringing its health bar down to nothing does not stop the head from attacking you in the Hydra's randomization. An explosion occurs and the defeated head appears heavily damaged, but it's still able to use its attacks on MegaMan. After all three heads are defeated, the Bonnes kick up the drill's power and the Hydra starts spinning rapidly, becoming a giant mechanical tornado that clangs and bangs in every direction of the room trying to smash into MegaMan. The final target is shooting at the Servbot-smoke stack at the center of the torso, which is now reachable as the Hydra swerves around wildly and tilts down so MegaMan's weapons can reach it. Destroying the smoke stack causes a huge explosion that lights the smoke on fire and blows up the rest of the Bonne Hydra. The pirates are defeated and the bedrock shell has now be drilled open enough for MegaMan access and obtain the treasure!

[Other Notes]
As the Bonne Mecha boss fights are known for, the Bonnes and the Servbots all bicker with each other and spout dialogue as they battle against MegaMan. Tron, Teisel and Bon are all in control of their appropriate mechanical heads and start off being fair with each other as they take turns attacking MegaMan. Meanwhile, the Servbots are constantly trying to keep the Hydra in order, since it uses a large amount of refractor power and need the smoke stack to let out all the exhaust. As each head is progressively defeated, the Bonnes start arguing with each other and the randomization becomes even more sparatic, so sometimes a head will attack more than once in a row or the turns between each head will become less "fair".

I'm a big fan of these hydra-esque designs so kudos to a nice looking boss!
While I have never played any of the Legends games (put the gun down for a sec!) this boss is fitting for a "Megaman" game. at least in my opinion.
I like how the fight gets progressively harder as it continues on. True to form for a Megaman title!

Okay fire away.

Glad I could finally review this idea! Now that I can sit down and leave a good long thought, I hope you respond. Keeping in mind, I already think the art itself is good. I'm leaving this review of the idea strictly and what I think of it.

There's no denying that you've played the games, the uncanny resemblence to one of Tron's machines is unmistakable. It's almost as if you thought just like her. All the details you put in the description and the design itself scream Megaman Legends loud enough to be audible from a normally quiet computer screen. 0_o From the weaponry of the machine itself, to the arguing Bonne family, you have captured it completely!

Flattery aside, there are two points of personal taste with this piece where I slightly disagree with, but don't necessarily dislike. For one, I feel that each head should have two arms. I understand that the limb count would exceed nine, which is the number heads the actual hydra of legend had. But between symmetry and historical accuracy, I prefer symmetry. My other discrepancy is that, according to your description, the heads still attack after being heavily damaged. Sure, it keeps the boss from getting too easy. But at the same time, I personally feel that they should be disabled after the beating. I think a good alternative would be that they get damaged and can't fight back, until some servbots fix them up and they re-activate. This could make the fight potentially longer, but I would prefer the longer fight as opposed to it seeming like the machine broke the game and fought past death, so to speak.

Anyway, those are just my opinions and thoughts, sorry that they were awfully long! But I left them in the hopes you would share your thoughts with them. As I understand that you plan to do more sketches of this mech, I would like to request that you try the two arms per head to see how it looks, if nothing else.

That's all I have to say, this piece is awesome and I will definitely vote for you when the time comes! Just please make sure you do the reminder journal entry to remind forgetful folk like me please. I hope to see a response from you soon!

-DarkX.

I thought about all of those things when conceptualizing the boss idea and this is what I settled on in the end. If you genuinely like it as it is though, a vote would be greatly appreciated.

Well, I'm not sure. This one wins a lot of points in my book, but I haven't looked at the other entries yet. Are there any others up for voting? And are they at that link? Not saying I don't like this, I just wanna give the other entries a fair shot before I vote for this one, because I'm pre-supposing that you get just one vote.

Yes it is. I can't tell you how it would compare to the classics, as Screw Attack gave it a terrible score (a 4? I still don't understand...) but I liked it. And, I'm assuming that Kirbopher did too.

DarkX1122 In reply to RistarFruit [2010-11-25 03:11:21 +0000 UTC]

I don't know where to help you there unfortunately. I can tell you that it's a Playstation 1 game (both MML 1 and 2). Other than that, I would advise ebay or game hunting. I feel bad that I can't give you the name of any place that sells old games, but I'm pretty sure that Gamestop doesn't carry Playstation 1 games anymore And, past that, I think that the PS3 has downloadable old games, but again, I'm unsure.

I have offered all the help I can. Past that, I can say this: It's fun, funny, pretty action packed, a decent challenge and long enough with some good side quests. At least, that's what the first one was like...

Anyhow, I think I've about beat this dead horse as much as I possibly could. So, here's my final thoughts: Good luck! You'll need it!

Nope, I guess it'd be considered an "RPA" a la Kingdom Hearts (before KH was around). There's customizable elements like an RPG but you control Megaman's movements like a 3D platformer.
