''20XX'' is an {{Indie}} {{Platformer}}/{{Roguelike}} hybrid that takes heavy inspiration from the ''VideoGame/MegaManX'' series.
Just like the ''X'' series, the goal is to make your way through each stage, discovering new powerups and abilities along the way, to fight the boss at the end. However, where ''X'' has deliberately designed stages, ''20XX'' uses a random level generator to create a unique layout filled with new items each time you play.
''20XX'' can be purchased for Steam Early Access [[http://store.steampowered.com/app/322110/ here.]]
----
!Tropes present in ''20XX'':
* ChargedAttack: Both Nina and Ace can charge their weapons to increase their damage, and with certain items, take advantage of special enhancements.
* {{Expy}}: Nina is one of X, and Ace is one of Zero.
