Hello!
I don't see older pictures of how this used to look, but I wanted to say it looks pretty cool to me, currently.
The stage looks amazing. The sprites look great. The effects and gameplay look super fun. I even like the big HUD. The bottom does feel a little empty, but I like how it tightens up the screen. I think I read the bottom will be used for boss health? Perhaps for speech?
What if character portraits were on the bottom and the top was left open until bosses show up? Or heck, you could even have it the way it is now and just have the bottom get covered when it's needed.
Does that make sense what I said?
This looks really cool though.
I would say some of your barrels are clustered too close together, and I dunno if that one robot needs the stomping shaking effect. It doesn't seem quite big/heavy enough for that and the stomps don't go with its spidery robot legs. It's a cool enemy though, and I wouldn't mind seeing a couple more of them in the level. Maybe with a little bit less health.

thanks deadjoe and ESN, this video is a bit outdated, the barrels are just for some tests, the stage will have some taxi cars parked in some places, and other objects in the final version,
also i will change the first boss to be The blob, and the second stage a more darker street in flames i will put pyro
for the third stage i will use esn emma frost to be the boss and mind controling some army soldiers in the entrance of sentinel factory, and like pyro she will be playable later as secret character
i just have some doubt about emma powers in 1980 era, she have her crystal form at that time or just mind powers?

hi im coding blob as the new first boss and send pyro to be the second stage boss due to light issues in the first stage background
for the blob boss i want him to be a 2 behavior style boss, he have 500 hp and when he reach 200 hp i want him to become his second behavior
his first behavior is him walking and punching, the second behavior he will be sit and wont will be movable anymore
i did the first behavior as blob.txt and the second as blob2.txt and want to execute his change using weapons
how i script it to change the main blob.txt to switch to blob2.txt weapon mode when hp reach <200?
i forgot how to do it

Emma doesn't have diamond powers in the '80s.
Is this game an original story? If so maybe she could have some Hellfire Club goons at that time.
Actually, reading through, I guess it's kind of... "because video games," but those guys' costumes are super cool and kooky.

if someone could sprite those i will use, and it would be useful too to my spiderman game that i will make someday 
my games tend to not have much text dialogs, but instead i use a speech system that shout random sounds when the script detects players, npcs, enemy types, and bosses and also objects
this way blob can taunt cyclops in the middle of the battle and wolverine taunt blob and so on...
its an original cheese story,with no much explanation but inspired in the arcade game backgrounds; rage anti mutant on the street brotherhood members causin riot at the same time, emma frost mind control army soldiers in the sentinel factory, xmen invade sentinel factory, some mutants are been kindnaped and taken to savage land, apocalypse is reborn somewhere in egypt with his horsemans, magneto must be stoped on asteroid M
its possible to create more game modes with other adventures in the same project once all assets are ready, also there are many secret heroes and villains that are unlockables and i also use a script that detects if player are playing with some boss and the script spawn a different boss.
i will make another gameplay video tomorrow

Ah so that's how Blob looks and act
I can see his second form but one thing worries me (which you have proven in the video) is how player can manipulate it to attack from behind or recharge MP while he's not attacking
My suggestion is to give Blob long range attacks which will force player to get close to defeat him

yes blob regen life when is sit too, so when he get half of his maximum hp he stand up again,
i gave him one area attack while sit that stomp ground and hit a wide range in front and behind, he also have a belly upper attack while sit,
i must re check that specific range while beast could attack without him react from behind
i will do more tweaks on him
