History VideoGame / RockmanCX

* [[spoiler:DownerEnding: The ending is left almost completely unchanged from the source game, and since you defeated Mega Man and destroyed Dr. Light's lab, Dr. Wily wins.]]

* PerspectiveFlip: The entire premise of this game.
** Rock Man's boss fight exemplifies this. When the fight starts, Rock Man enters the boss room through the door on the left, just like a regular Mega Man boss battle, while Rockman CX enters the boss room by dropping in from above like a Robot Master. Heck, CX even strikes a pose before the fighting starts!

* KamehameHadoken: [[spoiler:Dr. Light throws [[Videogame/StreetFighter Hadoukens]] as one of his attacks, both in his standard battle and the OneWingedAngel final boss]].

* AllTheWorldsAreAStage: [[spoiler: The second half of Dr. Right 5]]

* FightingYourFriend: [[spoiler:In the optional Dr. Right Stage 2, you fight Quick Man as a boss. Defeat him without using the Cheat Saber(which would cause a KilledOffForReal) and he will turn back to normal.]]

* FrickinLaserBeams: The Force Beams from Quick Man's stage appear in Kamen Rider and Yoshino Man's stages with a new trick up their sleeves: they can now ''change direction'' in mid-air. [[spoiler: [[OhCrap They get]] [[FromBadToWorse worse]] once you reach Dr. Right 3.]]

** After the first fortress stage, the player picks from one of two paths ''VideoGameþCastlevaniaIIIDraculasCurse'' style, the upper path being an optional stage which uses music and a similar atmosphere to the corresponding ''Dracula's Curse'' stage, along with a chance of recruiting an ally (Quick Man in this case) and having to re-traverse the stage backwards with the new character.

** Rock Man's stage, with a few repeating rooms if you take the wrong path and some traps that will kill you if you don't traverse the stage correctly (such as when making a jump close to the top of the screen, you scroll the screen up, and instead of scrolling back down, you find yourself in a pit that kills you.

* NoEnding: In Beta 5, after the BossRush, Right appears and congratulates Rockman CX for trashing his lab so quickly... Before telling him that he has [[BreakingTheFourthWall outpaced the developer's progress]], then the victory theme plays and the game reboots to the title.

* OriginalCharacter: Cheat, Yoshino, and this game's incarnation of Air Man.

* VillainProtagonist: Rockman CX, who takes down all of Dr. Light's robots. That said, the PerspectiveFlip makes Light much more threatening and unsympathetic, and Wily doesn't seem to be engaging in any villainous acts or intentions on his own. [[spoiler:Unless you count one of his castles suddenly appearing during the ending.]]

* {{ExactWords}}: ''Air'' Man.

** [[spoiler:Dr. Right 5's spike maze and AllTheWorldsAreAStage segments use [[Videogame/{{Undertale}} Megalovania]] as their theme.]]

''[=Rockman CX=]'' is a [[GameMod ROM hack]] of ''[[VideoGame/MegaMan2 Rockman 2]]'' by Zenkaku Himajin, completed on August 23rd, 2016. Compared to other ''Rockman 2'' hacks such as ''RockmanNoConstancy'', ''[=CX=]'' is a much larger project, reskinning the entire game into something that closely resembles the ''VideoGame/MegaManX'' series, complete with an intro stage, a [=MMX=]-styled [[VideoGameDashing dash]] ability, and an entirely different plot, starring EvilCounterpart [=Rockman CX=] as the game's VillainProtagonist battling Dr. Light's army of robots. Like many of the ROM hacks that preceded it, it's not without it's share of NintendoHard PlatformHell moments.

** Collecting Weapon Energy when the current weapon you have equipped has maximum energy (or have no weapons selected at all) will instead use the energy to replenish health instead.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler:Roll has no further appearances after the dialogue sequence in Dr. Right 1, although one can presume that she evacuated.]]

An official English translation was released in March 2017.

* UnwinnableByDesign: [[spoiler:A variation: It's impossible to do a full no-death run since suicide is required to get back ammunition for the only two weapons able to hit and damage the final boss.]]
