Video of the level:

so after playing a bunch SAGE fan game i felt like trying to drew my own stage just to see what i can do, so here's my very first own small level design, i'm sharing this with you, your welcome to tell me what ever you like, you can tell me weather it sucks so hard that you wan't to choke me or you can tell me it's good for a first time or something else.

Hello fellow a while I decided to make my own sonic fan game, Tube theme a bit abandoned until now that I've started. Look on the Internet and programs seems that a people use this Sonik Sprite. I wanted my fan games by now was the same original game (Sonci the hedgehog 1,2,3) only playable character that was different. First I decided to use the brothers do with Sonic, Sonia and Manic, So I set to work and look Manic sprites. But when I import the program that lets you edit and white. Why? What do I do wrong? I'll let pictures of how I do it and see what's going to fix it ASAP. Hope you can help health... http://imgur.com/zWOwlA8 http://imgur.com/7qKbUeY http://imgur.com/oYtv2xn http://imgur.com/iCCKaE0 http://imgur.com/MeJ8IDs http://imgur.com/Bpa2a8n http://imgur.com/TuoRrzs

hey guys I'm starting posting stuff on my Sonic fangame "Sonic aftermath" As the name tells it takes place after Sonic the hedgehog 1 (now I know that you'll say "But sonic bts..." I don't care I got the idea like a year before sonic before the sequel.. so...) So the story simply tells how sonic and tails met and how the death egg was builded. But this time its not told with cutscenes since i wanted to keep the classic sonic game style so no cutscenes... there will be a few like the cutscenes seen in sonic the hedgehog 2 and 3 The gameplay is basicly untouched although there will be a few of new gimmiks and enemies as well as all new bosses and levels. But enjoy... I guess... I really need to think about these :/ *Update* New logo made it today took about 30 minutes... that is not the final version!

So guys I really need help with level designing for sonic aftermath. I'm mot saying that someone needs to do the level for me, I'm just saying I need a bit help like ideas, sprites ETC. So if you do wanna help please contact me at [email protected] or pixelclassics at skype. Thank you... -PixelClassics

Sonic Adventure Emerald 31st August 2014 UPDATE I know this is a little late but there was a demo of my fan game at SAGE 2014 Act 2 and is still available for download: Mediafire: http://www.mediafire.com/download/ki0a6zxc70z46fq/Sonic+Adventure+Emerald+SAGE+2014+Demo.zip YoYo games: http://sandbox.yoyogames.com/games/228781-sonic-adventure-emerald-sage-2014-demo {All further demo releases and updates will be posted here} Original Description Why, hello there everyone! Around these parts I'm known as Bartman The Awesome or in simpler terms Bartman814, the leader of Sonic Fan Dev Guild. I have recently joined the Sonic United forums and I'm rather happy to be part of this community =3 So what is this topic about, you might be asking yourself. Well since this is in "Fan Game Showcase" that should give you a hint that I will be telling you about my fan game called Sonic Adventure Emerald. The game started development in December 2011 with the first demo being released in May 2012 with three stages. The next demo, dubbed the "Summer Demo" was released with 3 new stages in August 2012. The most recent demo of the game, the "1 Year Demo" was released on 19th March 2013, adding a new stage totalling up to 7 stages thus far. You can play these versions on my Yoyo games page but bear in mind this is not the 2014 version of the game. The current version of this game started development in August 2013, which happened between a Skype conversation with me and The True Power of Teamwork as he offered to clean up the game a bit. After his part was done I decided to make some of the graphics neater and add elements from the Sonic Fan Dev Engine, the engine Sonic Fan Dev Guild was working on at the time. The game is close to completion as 8 of the 10 stages plus several challenge areas have been completed and a version of SAE will be playable at SAGE 2014 Act 2. Also check out my YouTube channel for more updates on the game! There's also my team Sonic Fan Dev Guild's channel to check out too!

Hey, I'm Riseodvi, and I'm making a fan game that somewhat pays homage to Sonic & Knuckles and Sonic Adventure 2. Sonic has the ability to insta-shield, peelout, and roll and unroll while running. Shadow has the ability to increase his horizontal velocity in mid air and rebound a fixed distance from enemies, allowing him to chain jumps from enemy to enemy with ease. SCREENSHOT TIME: Some tiles are placeholders if you couldn't already tell... Some art will be ripped, some are taken from TMFZ, and some will be by me, and I'm making custom music for it. Here's the boss theme that I made: https://soundcloud.com/riseodvi/sets/boss-battle Another feature is that both Sonic and Shadow can use shields, but Shadow's shield ability will be the inverse of Sonic's (an idea given to me by P3DRO). I reserve the right to cancel this at any time, but at the moment, I have full intention on finishing it. I'm going to release a brief demo in an edit of this post soon, so stay tuned. As for a SAGE release, I'll only make a demo for that when I have 3 complete zones with nice art, so that could be the later act of SAGE. This is sort of a pet project of mine, but if you want to help, you can contribute art or music. PM me and I'll send you some photos and descriptions to send you in the right direction. Well, that's that! Thanks for reading, and tell me what you think of the demo when it comes out.

Hey people! I just finished the version 1 of the remake of Sonic World. Here below some pics and a small video footage. After some feedback, I could track and correct some stuff needed before posting a topic. Unfortunatelly I coudn't go after all issues now. But they will be in list for version 2, with the interiors, missions and some small things that I coudnt do now, since I have some imediate work to do this month and go back to my official project, SSH, that will be footaged still this year and will be in next year Sage with some levels. Everyone can expect something big in this other project, since it is a big headache to make it! If I not go with Sonic World to this Sage, is due to some inexplicable problems to make executables in my PC, I tried everything, formatting, reinstalling UDK, several configs, I must be doing something wrong. Well, here it goes:

Ok before I get into What exactly I have to say, I'd like to take a minute to say I'm loving the resources on this site. It's been real helpful somewhat.I am new to this forum so if I sound a bit unproffesional, my apologies. I have many ideas to create my own Sonic fangame. I've planned out many stories and level lists and finally decided to take action. The problem is, I don't know anything when it comes to scripting, or even sprite make. Awhile back in my middle school days I thought of a fangame idea called 'Sonic Origins'. It was a sort of omage to Sonic 2 and 3 in terms of story, and was planned to have Sonic 3 like gameplay (plus homing attack.) I attempted creating this on a game called LittleBigPlanet 2, as a way to atleast get an idea of how I wanted it to be on a real engine. So far I have everything down but when it comes to actually making the real thing. I need major help. For starters I wanted to make custom sprites for Sonic since he has a modified design. (This was the only good colored picture I had of Sonic's design ) ---> He is wearing more of metalic- like gloves and shoes. Along with a red scouter. This does not mean much in the long run for it is only a cosmetic thing. I was attempting to perhaps add a red patch over Sonic 2 sprites, but I wanted to be authentic and have custom sprites for this project. Tails was also planned to be playable in this project as well. i didn't change anything to his design. But given that Sonic would have new sprites I'd figured he should get some love as well. Other Characters I feel is unnessesary to mention at the moment, but will update if anyone is interested Another thing is a proper engine to work off of. I have a build of Sonic Worlds but not the plugins for the latest version of the engine. I was thinking of resorting back to Game Maker, Anyways a bit more info on my Fangame's story: Dr.Eggman is planning something big. A Mega Death-Egg which instead of using only the master emerald, he will construct it around all of Sky Sanctuary. In order to set his plan into motion. He must find a way to distract Sonic and Tails. He sends out his badniks to cause havok, and also makes a fake Eggman to lead Sonic, Tails and Knuckles on a wild goose chase. This plan backfires immidiatly, for the fake Eggman is destroyed within the 1st Zone of the game. Zone List: Strato Fortress Zone Emerald Isle Zone Cosmic Castle Zone Sand Battery Zone Frost Lake Zone Mega Egg Zone There is also a bonus Special Stage Zone after the main story is complete. So you can play 7 new levels to obtain Chaos Emeralds and Super Sonic. Once all emeralds are collected, Time Attack is opened up, Beating Time Attack missions unlock Super Emeralds. Which give you Super Tails and Hyper Sonic. If you would like more information about the Zones, I'd be glad to respond back when I am able to. Finally as I end this off. I'd like to hear some opinions of what you guys think of my idea. I like to take critisism and use i as a way to better my stories and plans. Thank you very much if you actually decided to read this.

Hi, my name's Corey, and I'm new to this forum. I'd like to get people to know me better, so here goes: I've played through Sonic 1, 2, 3, S&K, Sonic CD, Sonic Adventure (1 and 2), and Sonic Heroes. I haven't played any of the more recent games, such as the infamous Sonic '06, Sonic Unleased, Colors, Generations, or Lost World. A lot of people have said that there are Sonic fangames that are better than the ones made in recent years. I wouldn't know anything about that, but I have played and enjoyed LakeFeperd's Sonic fangames (Before/After the Sequel and Chrono Adventure). What I'd like to know is, what other Sonic fangames are worth playing? Now, what I'm looking for mostly are completed fangames (but demos and hacks are fine, too). If you're going to recommend me a fan game, please tell me whether it's completed or not so I can know ahead of time. Thanks in advance. Corey

can someone send me a link where I can download the fixed version? would be appreciated

Seeing as a lot of the members here seem to be of the younger generation (Gen Y mostly, it seems) I'm wondering how many here are Mario fans? I'm not. I grew up during the time when you were either a Sega man or a Nintendo man and you would wear your allegiance on your sleeve. School yard arguments, little sledges of "I bet your SNES can't do this," when showing off Sonic 2 to a Nintendo loving mate. Basically, "Sega does what NintenDON'T," is tattooed on my heart. In the intervening years I've softened somewhat. I actually own a 3DS and a DS. If you'd told a 13 year old me that I'd own a Nintendo console one day you'd probably get a barrage of abuse. Although I really do love my Ds-s, and some Nintendo franchises such as Pokemon, Zelda, Donkey Kong and Kid Icarus, I just can NOT bring myself to love Mario. But it's not just a result of him being Sonic's rival back in the day. I've played the games (admittedly the last one I played was New Super Mario Bros on DS) and I just don't enjoy them. I find them tedious and dull. However, younger gamers don't seem to have this issue. They started playing when that great war was over and the new war lord, Sony, had appeared on the screen. Nintendo is now to Sony what Sega used to be to Nintendo. It's very different. So, I'm interested, younger Sonic fans, do you consider yourself a fan of Mario as well? Does the old battles between the two even enter your mind? Is it something that even occurs to you, is it even on your radar or is it simply something old men, rocking on their porches loving holding the worn shell of their Mega Drives, mumble about to anyone who will listen?

So if anyone has any suggestions, questions, bug reports, or you want to leave feedback make a post here and I will respond as best I can. and since this is my first introduction to the community here, Hello I'm Renhoek I've made many fan projects and I'm a huge Sonic fan, I've spent years trying to create a Sonic fangame and after many attempts I've decided to remake sonic 1 8-bit. I hope everyone who played the demo had fun. And now I want to see how clever this community is. There's a total of 8 secrets that can be activated on the title screen and 1 Easter egg that can be activated at the disclaimer screen. I'll give a small hint for each cheat discovered. As for the first cheat it can be found in the screenshots at the SAGE booth.

I am looking for staff to create a new 2D title sequeling the original main Genesis titles, from Sonic 1 to Sonic And Knuckles. Several tracks from the game have been complete, but core staff is still needed, from engine and coding developers to pixel designers for the characters and stages! You can follow the links at the bottom of the post to listen to the world of Project Unity and read a general description for a few and decide if you feel inspired to put your best foot forward for the Unity title! ***-----------------------------U-----------------------------------*** The Story Of The Fourth... Every 100 years, South Island, in its eternal drift across the ocean, reaches West Side Island. At this time, Angel Island floats in a prime position high above the sky between the two islands, creating a perfect triangle. When this occurs, Angel Island summons a mysterious fourth island, sealed within a strange dimensional barrier, to rise from the sea and expose itself to Sonic's world using a mysterious emerald colored beam. What connection does this mysterious fourth island have to the others...? Sonic will soon find out... But he isn't the only one who has happened upon this strange spectacle. And another force is moving in fast to discover what riches this new landmass may have to offer... ***-----------------------------N-----------------------------------*** New 2D Zones! This game will feature seven zones on the games main island, the mysterious fourth, with three acts each. Two normal stages and one boss stage. Traveling between the zones will be fairly seamless, as each boss defeated will lead you into a tiny clip of heading into the next environment. ***------------------------------I----------------------------------*** Hub Map! This will feature the new island, and will also show South, West Side, and Angel. You will be able to visit the other islands via the tornado after collecting specific amounts of a designated item hidden throughout stages in the game. ***-----------------------------T----------------------------------*** Other Islands...? That's right! Live old stages anew. Its been 20 years since Sonic visited these locations, and fans will get to see first hand how the years have altered these old stages into new adventures waiting to enjoy! Each island will feature three familiar stages made entirely new waiting to be unlocked after collecting enough of a designated item! ***------------------------------Y--------------------------------*** Pals Pitch In! Sonic may be the star, but even the best of heroes need help from time to time! In select locations within stages, Sonic will reach environments he cannot traverse himself, so one of his many friends will be waiting in the foreground of stages to jump in and help him out once you reach them! ***-------------------------------!-------------------------------*** Eggmans Decision - Cutscene Theme When Sonic is defeated at the hands of another enemy, the Master Emerald appears at the command of the islands to save him! But this new enemy isn't just going to stand and let it revive Sonic... Will the doctor let Sonic die and take over the world the easy way? Or will his pride take over and cause him to help the blue blur escape the brink of death alongside his friends so he himself can savor the thorough victory of defeating him with his own hands one day...? THIS... Is the moment of Eggmans decision!!! https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=764521296910535&set=vb.716957105000288&type=3&theater Boss Theme https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=760373153992016&set=vb.716957105000288&type=3&theater Tidal Junction Zone Theme After landing on the mysterious new island, our hero and his best bud find themselves before an all new jungle ripe for exploring! Naturally the temptation to tread dust along the beautiful beach will be too great for them to resist as well... https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=762424053786926&set=vb.716957105000288&type=3&theater 20 Years Later - Present Scrap Brain Zone Theme - Unlockable Stage Its been a long time since Sonic had his very first final showdown with the doctor here... And boy how the place has changed! Blue skies? Greenery? Animals?! But some of the past remains alive...

Remember my other project, Sonic Origins? Well, I canceled that due to another project that my friend Jassbec was doing that had almost the same story. So changed the story and the name to Sonic Genesis. Then my friends coaxed me to change the name to something more original and something that would fit more with the plot (further down). So I chose the name Sonic Sigma, and it just stuck! You'll be able to play the game at United's fangame parade in November. Members- Alex Bradley (Infinity Alex) - Project Co-Leader & Lead designer DaHog - Project Co-Leader & Lead programmer Hobbers - Spriter & Concept Artist Story- It has been 2 years since the events of Sonic 3&K. Little Planet has returned to Mobius once more. Sonic, Tails and Amy, believing Robotnik to be dead after Super Sonic watched the Death Egg Robot Mk III fall from space with him still inside, decide to take a vacation at Never Lake. Y’know, relax, have some downtime. However, Robotnik is not dead at all. Quite the opposite, in fact! After escaping from the Death Egg Robo before it hit the ground, Robotnik flew back to the now low-flying Death Egg to start his next project. This would be the robot Sonic to end all robot Sonics! Metal Sonic’s speed combined with Silver Sonic’s defensive capabilities and Mecha Sonic’s power plus the DNA of Sonic himself! However, due to the Doctor’s crisis, the robot was being built at the center of the Death Egg so it could power it and stop it from falling into the ocean below. Now, Robotnik has acquired a familiar set of stones to power the Death Egg, turning it into the Time Egg, so his latest creation, CYBER SONIC, can be unleashed! Watch out, Sonic! The Eggman’s coming for you! Concepts n' stuff*- First up on our concepts list is Cyber Sonic's design. Alex's first Cyber Sonic design. Hobbers's Cyber Sonic concept. Which is better?

Well as the title says...Sonic Adventure 3 has been announced. Now this news isn't per-say "new" but was announced around a month or so ago. How accurate is it as well? Well umm...it's a rumor with promising sources. Now either way SEGA did say how they will be bringing back Sonic Series again around the end of this year (2013). Word on the block the game will be on Wii U, PS3, Xbox 360, 3DS, PS Vita, PC, and “Next gen” consoles. So with this said we can clearly say that Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 was NOT a fail reboot of the Adventure series. Now don't get ahead of yourselves you guys because like how I said this is a rumor from a couple sources. I will put the sources down below for you guys to check them out. No art or videos have been released nor has there been that BIG announcement from Sega, but the information thats been getting around sounds reasonably believable for an early game rumor. As said by Takashi Iizuka that it is "possible" for Sonic Adventure 3 to come out if enough people wanted it. Here is a little tweet from someone a while back who apparently finds out about some inside scoop on upcoming Sonic Information. Now some of this information is a bit older - Late January to Late February - so lets not try to get over dramatic with the info either we still got till November till even a POSSIBLE release if the game were to even come out. With Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) we had a year before the announcement, but with Sonic Unleashed we only had a couple of months and the first announcement for Unleashed was just rumors due to SEGA purchasing some domains for it. So the likely hood of hearing anything more about it soon probably isn't all that likely and that we'd have a couple months ahead. But what was a real big highlighter was that around last year in July Sega did some domain purchasing for Sonic Adventure 3 so just like what they did with Unleashed there might be a chance. To be exact they purchased about 6 domains relating to Sonic Adventure 3. Now to get with the rumor game details if the game is real - Gameplay: The game's development goes back before Generations so the game will be similar to Colors (Colours) and Sonic Generations, which will implement mostly 3D gameplay, but with the occasional 2D perspective gameplay. The game will be bringing back Genesis style gameplay in which there are multiple routes and such but with different endings, which if I'm correct is a new idea to the Sonic series. Also multiple characters are possibly playable on all stages meaning characters can achieve special routes others can't (will be discussed later on). Game Consoles: As I said above the game should be available on Wii U, PS3, Xbox 360, 3DS, PS Vita, PC, and “Next gen” consoles. Assuming that 3DS will be just like the Sonic Rush series gameplay and the PC will bring about new modifications to users - my assumptions. I won't say much for this topic of such mainly since I have no idea what we will be expecting. Characters: Yes! NO MORE NEW CHARACTERS! As hoping for, there are no more new characters in this game - said a source. Why are we happy that there are no more new characters? Simply because back in the late 90s to early 2000s Sega went on a crazy rage of mass producing characters that only left an impact on one game title and were super generic and nothing truly interesting about them, plus it sparked a crazy annoying fan base and mass number of kids started making up side stories hoping that the failed character would return again. So with that said they won't bring about any new souls. Now back on the subject, there will be about 10 playable characters that aren't new to the series. My assumptions lead me to believe that the playable characters would be Sonic, Knuckles, Tails, Shadow, Rouge, Amy, and others. You will be starting out with Sonic and through then you'll unlock more characters which will then lead to different paths and different goal routes on levels. As said earlier it's starting sound like a Sonic Adventure style gameplay. What game it reminds me of is Sonic and Knuckles 3, but apparently the levels are the same but just not reachable with certain characters. Example would be: Sonic and Shadow cant climb walls to reach higher point so Knuckles could climb the wall or tails can fly on up. Now how I said once again earlier, these are all rumors and assumptions on the character play through so we can't say for sure what will be in and what would be out of the game. Levels: Other than 20 three-act stages, Generations/Colors style, and different ending routes don't expect more details until a later date in time. Level replay will be with any character of your choice - what I said in the Characters section. That is about all the info I could find around the Inter-web. SEGA MAY CHANGE THE NAME BUT THEY ARE CURRENTLY USING SONIC ADVENTURE 3. Until Sega makes an official announcement these are all rumors made by insiders and sources that were able to get something from Sega without Sega saying anything to the public. - so may be all fake...

One thing I've enjoyed in the Sonic community is their ability to make fun of the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise itself. There's tons of hilarious videos made by fans everywhere that parody the blue hedgehog's adventures and his friends. I've made this topic to celebrate those videos, so we can laugh and discuss and all that jazz. HOWEVER, WE ARE AVOIDING POST-AND-RUN SCENARIOS HERE, SO HERE'S THE RULES EVERYBODY: You must post a video. To embed videos, hit the SpecialBBCode button (it's two buttons above the Underline button) then select media and paste the video URL into the URL box, then hit OK. You must discuss the person who made the video. Did they make other Sonic/SEGA videos that you know? If so, how are they with making Sonic videos? Do they animate videos, edit clips, etc.? If you don't know the videomaker well, are you interested to see what else they made? YOU MUST COMMENT ON THE VIDEO AND WHAT YOU THOUGHT OF IT. This is MANDATORY. Discuss in short what's going on (you don't have to spoil the punchline), and what you liked in the video. Is there anything you'd like to see different? What's you favorite moment in the video? ​REMEMBER: IF YOU JUST POST A VIDEO, IT WILL BE ASKED TO BE TAKEN DOWN. We're here to celebrate the hilarity of Sonic, and recognize some awesome videos out there. So remember the rules and have fun!

I've noticed that there is no pre-existing thread for the Sonic comics so I decided to do it first~ But first, a few rules... 1. This thread is for discussion on the comics in both of the Sonic titles. There shouldn't be much on other comics unless they pertain to these two (Like MegaMan during the crossover). Also, none of that UK comic stuff around here! (Unless it is relevant) 2. Let's try to be nice to everyone! Honest criticism is always welcome, but insults are not tolerated. 3. Also, please try to keep spoilers hidden for those who don't want to see them. An issue can be considered non-spoilerable about a week from it's release, but hide them until then. 4.Finally, let's have fun with this! I'll personally add in preview pages and useful stuff when I can, but it is up to you to make this enjoyable. Now that that's out of the way, let's get discussing! First topic: How is everyone enjoying the crossover?

http://venturebeat.com/2013/04/05/sega-dealing-with-the-console-transition-mobile-boom-and-sonic-interview/ A couple of SEGA employee share how the company handle the console transitioning, their status on mobile platforms, and what's next for Sonic the Hedgehog as a brand. Your thoughts?

I don't know what needs to be said about this game that hasn't already been said before. Woah nelly, this game. For those of you who are unaware (and I'm assuming that's like 3 of you at this point XD), Sonic Omochao Edition is a fan hack by Cinossu and QJimbo of Sonic Retro. Basically, OmoChao follows you around the entire game. Whenever he wants to state the obvious, the game pauses itself, accompanied by a little jingle that gets longer every time you touch or hit an object in the game. And the jingle gets longer. AND LONGER. AND LONGER. So how to you put an end to OmoChao's eternal annoyance? You just have to avoid and evade EVERY THING IN THE LEVEL. Here's a video example of the game: I love this hack, for everyone's information. It's such a simple concept, but at the same time, it's INGENIOUS. You now have an incredibly high level of challenge to set for yourself in Sonic 1, not to mention how HILARIOUS the concept is alone. So everyone, thoughts on Sonic Omochao Edition? Did you find it hilarious, or do you loathe the game? And has anyone here gotten a perfect run, because I sure as hell haven't (but I was THIS CLOSE!).

So by this point, I'm pretty sure everyone here has heard of the new Sonic cartoon being made. If not, here is the link to the article - http://www.tssznews.com/2013/06/15/sega-launching-new-sonic-boom-cartoon/ Here is the info we got so far: -It is going to be a "Pony-esque Reboot of the cartoon series". -The cartoon will be comedy-based rather than story. -Involves Sonic (Obviously), Tails, Knuckles, and Amy. Questions: What do you guys think of the new cartoon? Do you think it will be a fine cartoon? Do you think a "Pony-esque" satire would work for a Sonic Comedy? Also, if you could, what characters would you like to add in the cartoon besides the 4 mentioned above?
