Well, it's Mega Man X1 but you can play as fucking Zero. Any Mega Man X game becomes twice as fun if it allows you to play as Zero, so what more needs to be said?...

... Ok but on a more serious note the amount of passion and detail put into this hack is fucking unbelievable. Wily appears in the armor capsules instead of Light with changed dialogue to match his character, the Hadouken capsule even turns Zero into Black Zero, X now makes the sacrifice in the Vile fight but he actually manages to safely retreat, the post-credits scene subtly shows off Sigma talking to the X-Hunters giving a nice tease in to X2 and the list goes on in changes to adapt X1 to be about Zero rather than X. There are some odd decisions here and there such as some of the boss rematches being a 2v1 or how Zero burns through special weapon energy faster but as he's such a powerhouse it barely matters as not only will bosses usually have like 1/4 of their HP left by the time you run out of their weakness but the Spiral Crush still hits bosses REALLY hard. Then there's changes that REALLY spice up the gameplay such as how Electric Spark no longer breaks Armored Armadillos shell which initially made that fight a LOT harder for me until I realized that charged Electric Sparks still make very easy work of him or how Zeros increased jump height makes Launch Octopus way easier than he is with X (and getting the Buster capsule too I think). My favorite change however is that Variable X plays in the final Sigma level as opposed to the ominous theme in vanilla X1 and it surprisingly fits very well because man does it get you PUMPED to beat the final boss. But all in all, this is a damn good ROM hack which has love and passion present all throughout it, definitely check this one out even if you like MMX overall as opposed to just being a Zero junkie, because despite the changes it brings, it isn't that much harder than vanilla X1 so it should still be rather easy to get into so long as you know the basic MMX formula.
