Wow that's is really sweet spike its gonna look awesome in Sonic 4. One thing, I don't really like the eyes on the hurt animation. Not a big deal though this sprite is sweet.

off topic but if you look he joined Sept 2007. So should he even know who Redsonic is? As far as everyone's entries go nice job people. Max you should make your dude a Celebratory or something.

True that other wise it will end up like one of those awful Advance games. Yes I know they do have springs and spikes but they seem to lack many level specific gimmicks. They rely too heavily on speed and it seemed to get worse every sequel.

Ahhh... I know of at least 2 other ones with that name granted they suck. But it might be worth changing just because of that. If you are planning on going with what Damizean said and have genesis in the title you might try like Sonic: Genesis Revival or revamped or something. It took me a long time to settle on Sonic Time Twisted. To be honest I don't even like that name that much but it would be a pain to change now. Now I'd like to make a game using this name Sexy Sonic: Shaking and Baking. But it would have to be a joke game of sorts and I wouldn't want to start it before I finished Time Twisted. But that's probably the greatest name for a Sonic game ever.

Hmm... it would probably be easier to come up with names if I knew something of the story for Sonic 4. Unless you just want to name it something generic. What I mean by that is a name that could be used for pretty much any Sonic game. Err if you did want to name is something generic. Maybe and tell me if this is crazy... Sonic Euphoria?

Yeah that looks really good. Might try more variation in the ground tiles however.

Thats really awesome Rael!

You just can't leave anything alone without improving on it can you? Thanks that should work well. Rep+

Anyone seen this? http://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?showtopic=325201

Very nice, I love the background art. I agree that the "level design was slightly linear.", however.

I would call that a good start. Sure there are problems but I'm sure you are aware of that as this is an early test. This is almost as good as Sonic Revolution... ok that's a horrible joke. Nice Job Mark.

Those are the colors from Quartz Quadrant past though.

I did but I don't think I varied the color enough because no one seems to be able to tell. pallet See:

But but I love my bubble pattern maybe if I just made it big bubbles instead and put them exactly tiled. Like Tidal Tempest only instead of spots use 1 big bubble in place.

Thanks guys. Its amazing what you get done when you can't surf these forums lol.

This is a few screens for the second round of Time Twisted. Opinions? Questions? Insults?

I played through this at is pretty neat. An interactive cartoon. Nice work. One thing though Rayman's colors seem a little dull or something I remember them much brighter in the games...

The tree is specific to the one time zone as is all of the senary except for the basic foreground. There are only 2 time zone's in my game.

Could you explain yourself a little more?

How about the tree?

Hey what do you guys think of this screen mostly the tree I just made it.

I've played this demo through probably about six times now and have noticed stuff I didn't before so I'll talk XG. I guess the engine isn't the best but I really didn't notice any problems. There was a few bugs that I noticed in my six times of playing this game that actually needed addressing and that the average gamer not knowing anything of Sonic fan gaming might notice. When Tails flies up into those polls there is a small noticeable bug but it doesn't harm anything or interrupt the flow of game play. At the start of the Second act I got stuck between to walls with Knux I think like something didn't trigger and I just got stuck on this one screen not able to scroll left or right that only happened once in a 3 times I played as knux but it should be fixed. Oh yeah and you can move Sonic at the end of act 1 but not act 2 that's just insanity! I think the reason why I liked this demo so much is just the amount of game play you crammed into the demo. First you're Super Sonic in a battle then you you play a act of just solid Sonic Game play. Next thing you know Eggman shows back up and the whole level is falling about and just to wrap it up you've got a decent few bosses in there. Plus the sweet Special Stages. I've heard people say there weren't enough gimmicks but I didn't think so I thought it was a nice mix of gimmicks and level specific hazards (people forget about those things). Other then that I loved the badniks they were reused but when I say I loved them I'm not really talking about the graphics I'm talking about their placement. Many fan games use way too many badniks and a lot of times the badniks get cheap kills. You had just the right mix which is apparently hard to do as that is a major flaw in a lot of games. I also did like the level design myself. The level was neat and while there was a lot of falling and climbing I felt that fit the level perfect seeing as you are falling out of the sky. The presentation was awesome as many people have said but I think the game play holds up on its own too. My opinion of this game is pretty much what Blaze said to start with: That is if it gets finished. I'd also like to apologize for my part in the "Side Talk" we should have never deviated from talking about the game.

Because you wouldn't want to but Sega outta business would you?

Nuff said. Sling you asked "Does Euan not get the bitch treatment?" basically his game was better. I know that sounds mean but that's the honest answer to your question. Its better then mine too no biggy. Yes that is comparing your two games but that's the only way I know how to give you my honest answer. You also asked why I was comparing Retro and XG that was just in reply to DW if you read up a bit you will see that. All that being said you second post restated the question. To which I will reply that pointing out that your boss is an edit is dumb hell most of our whole games are edits. ila I'm not going to dignify that with a response. We don't need a flame war. Now I am done talking about this and I will not reply again with anything not relevant to the game. This is supposed to be a topic about the XG demo nothing more and I am going to try to respect that now.

That's not true at all. At least for me. I never got stuck in a wall in this game. I could hardly find a bug when I played through this. Plus the whole thing was just on such grand a scale it was amazing. Another thing I want to point out is. Why are you comparing your game to this game. There is no reason to compare Nexus to this game over any other fan game. Why don't you compare Nexus to Sonic 4 instead? Or Tikal and Chaos or hell go back to last year and compare it with Sonic Time Twisted. Plus I don't mean to be rude but did you ever just think that maybe Nexus isn't as good this, so it got more complaints? That sounds harsh but some games are better then others. You don't see me complaining because people like Nexus better then Sonic Time Twisted. Does that mean Nexus is better then Time Twisted? In a word YES! Fact of life your not always the best.
