Those are fire orbs.

Haha, just you wait until we finish Act 1 and show acts 2 and 3, you're gonna be surprised. :3 (and thanks!) Uh oh, that's not good, lol This is a Sonic 1 prequel so Sonic 1 sprites seem like a logical choice, we might change the pallette later on. (though there were discussions early in development about using pre-rendered sprites from the game's CGI cutscene's Sonic model).

It's just like flappy bird, it's frustrating but it keeps dragging me in, lol

I've played it enough times that I can do a NO-DEATH run. It's easy once you figure out the patterns.

It's short, so I guess you should.

dude, you have just made an awful masterpiece, and it's pretty damn hard too. It's awful in all possible ways, good job. Playing this at work probably wasn't a wise idea since I was almost laughing. and that final boss, lol.

@Poe I wanna hug that Sonic :3 I really like the sprites! I've been noticing that your title card changes depending on the location, as in showing where the zone is located in, that's a really nice touch.

Already posted this in the game's thread, but most people only check this thread, so might as well post it here. There's more stuff in the background, but you can't see it due to Sonic's position. But yeah, this is Sunrise Gate Zone Act 1 for my project Sonic Overture for those who don't know.

That mix of thick lines and high quality pngs is bootiful Can't believe there's fan characters already xD

Hey, looks awesome! I also think you should update the first page.

Haha, you've gone a long way Lake. Really looking forward to this!

Oh boy I'm finally done porting to the newest version of Sonic Worlds, I'm glad I'm finally done wi--- *1.4.3 after party and sees stuff that can be really useful* Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-

Oh, awesome! I'm really looking forward to this one!

Alrighty, I'd recommend moving to a newer version of worlds, but if you're sticking with this one... for water rippling, I think you're going to have to animate that piece of parallax, just put all of the animations on top of each other (make a parallax for each frame of the animation) and give it all the same alterable values so they move the same. Now for how to program the animation... It's something like add 1 to a value value = 1 show parallax 1 hide parallax 2 hide parallax 3 Value = 2 hide parallax 1 show parallax 2 hide parallax 3 Value = 3 hide parallax 1 hide parallax 2 show parallax 3 set value to 1 and keep going until you got all of the frames in order. as for moving clouds, that isn't difficult at all. Just use alterable value F which you will need to use "timer/-X" X is the number, the bigger, the slower it will move. I don't know if this solved your problem, but I really hope it did, lol.

AW YES, WELCOME TO THE CLUB!

Well, no. We're part of the smarter side of the community so we do see flaws and that stuff, we obviously don't claim everything as gold xD But I didn't see anyone getting particularly upset or butt hurt, we're just sharing our thoughts. If you're not into the Sonic franchise as much that's fine, just stick around and see what happens, there's always a chance you'll enjoy it even if it's a 10% chance. If not, well that's fine as well, we all have different preferences after all. (the fact that Sonic Team is not making this really got my interest)

Hahaha, we're on polar opposites here, while yeah, the designs aren't perfect...I'm fine with them, I even like Knuckles. The show seems to have good writing (yeah I did say that) and the game itself looks reaally awesome. I dunno, maybe you should give it a chance to grow on you. Lost World was an alright game, it just didn't really had a direction, and this game hasn't even come out yet and looks like a really awesome one, so stick around and see what happens.

Eh, we're going to get used to it, it's not like we can do anything about it. (It's hilarious how some fans are making petitions to change the designs, like if those ever worked, haha.)

That's looking good! Though something about how that snow is on top of the ground rubs me the wrong way. maybe some shadows, or something.

I can hear a lone Japanese Sonic fan raging right now.

I'm really digging the gameplay from what I've seen, it's like Sonic Adventure, but like, less linear and more open, which I'm a sucker for.
