This is a sequel to the Willy Wars, a Sega Genesis game. it's a fan recreation covering games 4 through 6. I'd say its game of the year material in 1994 considering it plays on the original Sega Genesis hardware. While this is a Longplay, I was so impressed with this that I plan on creating a video review. It's beautiful.

Overview
Mega Man: The Sequel Wars is a fan-made homebrew remake of Mega Man 4, 5 and 6 for the Sega Mega Drive, following in the footsteps of the officially released Mega Man: The Wily Wars. It aims to carefully recreate the NES classics while giving them a fresh 16-bit coat of paint and a rearranged soundtrack. More than that however, it also aims to bring a slew of new content, both through complete re-imaginings of the classics in EX Mode and a new gauntlet of levels in Wily Tower 2. And it all runs on the original Mega Drive hardware!
Debuting in SAGE 2022 is a demo of the game featuring various remade and new levels.
NOTE: this is not a rom hack of Wily Wars! It is fully coded from scratch in C using the SGDK library. As such, the game will be distributed as full ROM releases as there is no original game to patch to.
FEATURES
-Faithful recreations of the original games, with extensive research done to make everything accounted for.
-Loads of new content including a full-blown reimagining of the originals with new enemies, mechanics and bosses in EX Mode, a completely new set of levels in Wily Tower 2, and even a 4-player competition mode in Metall Party!
-Smooth controls that avoid all of the shortcomings of the original Wily Wars and its control issues.
-Refined 16-bit graphics that use the Mega Drive's superior visual capabilities to their fullest, with detailed environments and elaborate parallax backgrounds.
-Original soundtrack featuring both remakes of the original tunes and all-new compositions. Comes in both Classic (original Wily Wars style) and Modern (Regular) flavours.
