I don't know if this has been discovered but Lava Reef & Dirty Diana has a strong similarity.

I like how Blue Emerald did to the Sonic 3 sprite, but I also like what Cstyler Sonic 3 sprite. Both of them is great; just combine the sprites, a little from Blue Emerald work and a little from Cstyler work.
Well Sonic GEDA is a sonic genesis era game, while Sonic Nautica is a sonic advance game, so it seems that Power wants to have a sonic fan-game that is a genesis era and advance era.
Project: Sonic Retro is bringing Nack back, now ill give them thumbs up for that. I just looked looked it up and there also (i think) introducing a new version of Metal Sonic.
tech demos codename ugly, LOL........Sonic Basterdized, im just now learned of another fangame.
Anyway, what MFZB said, its kinda too early to judge Nautica right and the black tiles is just a test and get the feel of a level. Just a word of encouragement
Yeah I now just heard about Project: Sonic Retro when checking my email today. I feel its gonna be successful to, but there arent adding new characters like Sonic 2 and 3.
MFZB you do know I said Power Hedgehog can take all the time he needs.
Off Topic - True Sonic, its called Retro Sonic XG now but i havent heard to much about it since its name was changed.
OK back on topic, I wonder if there gonna be new characters in this game since the story sounds huge, to early to tell though.
Black is off the chain (cool), I know that. But the level background is neat, the level art haves to come NOW!!! (don't take it personal, Power Hedgehog can take all the time he needs)
