Crypt of the Necrodancer gets the full Mega Man treatment

Crypt of the Necrodancer, the rhythm-based roguelike, has a great name. It has a great review score. And now it has a great Mega Man mod: Crypt of the MegaDancer, a total conversion that replaces the original graphics and sound with a complete Mega Man experience.

"I didn't include music with this mod because I didn't want to force people to Necrodance to 8-bit chiptunes. It would require even more effort to get used to, and a lot of the songs are really fast. You can still add it to the game via Custom Music if you have the tracks handy," he explained. He did, however, leave open the possibility that new music could be added in future releases, if there's sufficient demand.

You can grab Crypt of the MegaDancer from Steam.
