Read the PM I sent you

Ok, we will probably have 3 acts available fairly soon as we are finishing off the first zone now. We are still after at least 2 more Beta Testers so do not be afraid to help out We may even get a nice Winter Demo up for you guys with the first zone finished. I may have found someone that knows about programming in CF2.5 irl, so hopefully new gimmicks, enemies and bosses are coming soon. Just got to wait and see...

So, lets start a discussion... theories.

desolate desert? But that is really nice I cant wait to give it a go

thats looking really sweet love it

We are on the look out for Beta Testers. Recently, development has been going well, but our team is biased towards our own game (naturally). So in order to help make this game the best it can be, we are looking for a team of 5 beta testers. We are looking for people who can give constructive feedback without just giving a 2 sentence long piece of feedback that helps no-one. One point that was raised at SAGE was level design. But people just said "you need to work on level design" in no way were we told what needed changing (apart from maybe 1 exception). We currently have 1 act we are considering finished (missing rings and badniks) but we want opinion on the level design more than anything. So if you are interested, either PM me, or reply below (maybe with some past experience). This IS NOT first come first serve. Thanks ~Spykid

I must say, that was very interesting. Its made me look over some of the level design in TBB to be honest

Seven nights at sonics anyone?

when exactly is the deadline for entries?

Thats looking brilliant... Good job

If you are not busy, It would be great if you could do a little something for our project. Only if you are bored or something . The project is Sonic: The Blue Blur Just putting that out there Cheers

At some point, yes. We are making Sonic's story first, and then building it up

Sorry, This is a triple post, but just go check the OP and tell me what you think, especially about the screenshot for the first zone

Woo... winning... Well, ill see you on the dark side of the moon

Prism, Spectrum idk lol

I am going to say i disagree. I believe that a developers first game should be how the developer wants it... I always say this to myself... don't do it for the masses, do it for yourself. Sure, take advice and stuff, but don't completely change everything because some people don't like it. It doesn't need to be professional. Is plom a professional game developer... i don't think so... I say this about spark, Lake was making it the way he was making it, and sage came around and all of a sudden, he is questioning if he should make the game... People shouldnt make new developer feel like this. Give them pointers by all means, but not everyone is an artist, musician, level designer... so if its a 1 or 2 man project, dont expect everything to be covered. Im going to use my game as an example... I am learning to code in CF2.5 so I hope to be a programmer. In order to teach myself (and have Mr.PotatoBadger spend hours on skype with me) I am making a sonic fangame. Now I got lucky, I have a talented team on board, but that was because I was willing to let newer people to the SU forums, help me out. But if I did do this solo, there would be nothing original at all, crappy level design and poor gimmicks and stuff. What I am trying to say is cut plom some slack, and realize how he is pouring his heart and soul into this game, as is Lake with Spark... trouble is, games like Freedom Planet set the bar extremely high for indie platformers nowadays P.S I like the style, its different from most other platforms we see now... Keep up the good work, cant wait for the next demo

what... like coding and stuff?

Its like it knew it was going to be bad, so gives the fans what they wanted... for it to never exist

New Zone list 1) Great Forest Yeah... ever watched SatAm or Read Archie Comics... You know this place 2) Scorching Sands (Previously Dust Hill) The Name change was brought on by the song Mr Badger wrote for Act 2 of this zone...

Lava reef anyone? I just love that level, coming up to the climax and how long it is (especially if you haven't played it before). I remember the first time I reached the boss, I didn't know about the conveniently placed fire shield and it was a pain lol
