Sotsug Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 What's up, man? Yeah, we can do that^^ Interested in testing a boss battle build?I'm trying to recreate the Sonic 2 final boss battle, but with the S&K sprite set. So far he's able to walk, look directly at the player and step up and down platforms. I want to improve him a bit more before I make the build, but here are some pics for now.

SaitoSan Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 @Ironrind I can hear church music as I look at you're screenshots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironrind Posted March 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 @LH Haha..thanks man @Virt Thanks, A new build is on the way^^ @Sotsug Garland Grove still feels a bit empty to me so I held off on including it for now. I have a lot of ideas on paper that still need to be added for the the stage to come together. @SaitoSan Lol, the battle's theme has element of choir music which will be this: I'll be adding a time counter for speed-runs and a character selection. The other sprites for Tails, Knuckles ect, haven't been customized yet, but at least I can begin work on the split-screen mode again. Basically similar to Sonic 2 and 3 competition modes. ----------------------- Here's a WIP of the true final boss (the one that comes after the boss above): Concept-wise, this boss represents the peak of Robotniks power after obtaining all of the chaos emeralds. One for each sphere (or planet) in the solar system. I'll either loose the Galactus horns or redraw them. I just wanted to get an idea of the look.

Ironrind Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 New video of boss test: http://youtu.be/zh-VQ179mG8 I'm just going to call him EggRobo, because I'm not sure if the Sonic 2 final boss had a name? His his laser and rocket stomp are in development. To kill him, you'll have no knock him over and get to the emerald in his chest(which will be added eventually).

Rawr Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Man this is so fucking awesome. All I can see though while playing this is a 'I wish this wasn't Sonic' because I'd totally pay for a game like this. Inspiring stuff as always dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironrind Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 @Rawr Haha, I want to start some non-sonic stuff soon. When CB's done, It'll just be original stuff. @Asuma Not really. There's no rigged skeleton or keyframes. All of his joint parts are just positioned at average in-between coordinates and pointed toward the external hands and feet. The whole system sits on top of two feet objects that hop over each when that object's alarm is triggered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawr Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Yay Also I noticed one thing and I am not sure how easy it would be to correct, but while the camera is really cool there are moments where it gets really jumpy. Like when pushing those springs it gets really screwy, its almost disorienting for me because it gets all jumpy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironrind Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Yeah, it's a bit too sensitive. I see how it gets shaky. I make sure the zoom is off if moving lower than a certain speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candescence Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Hey, could you upload it to another place other than FileFactory? Damn thing won't let me download the demo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironrind Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Sure, try either of these: http://www.freefilehosting.net/soniccbv10 http://www.moddb.com/games/sonic-cb/downloads/sonic-cb-v10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candescence Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Awesome. Alright, some pros and cons: Pros: - Oh, geez, the visuals are superb. - Some sections do give you that feeling of incredible speed. - Physics seem good enough. Cons: - Some questionable level design - the pit with the spikes on the lower path with a spring that often makes you hit the side of one of those tiny platforms, resulting in you falling to your doom. - The camera involving springs can result in a 'where the hell am I going' feeling. - When you lose rings, only three rings at most are dropped, and they disappear way too quickly. - Mercy invincibility after you get damaged is incredibly short.

Ironrind Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Thanks for the help, Candescense. I'll work on these cons. I'm having trouble with platforms. For some reason I can't get the platform to place the player on top if jumping from underneath. Maybe I can make the platform's collision box a little thinner and remove it's wall collision. The rest should be simple enough to fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironrind Posted April 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Today, I was playing around with an old Sade song and thought to make a track out of it for CB. "Ready": http://youtu.be/NxJKpO7OLks Originally Sade "Cherish The Day": http://youtu.be/g13qTy-llok I haven't decided which zone this will be for. If not a water zone, it'll end up being placed on the games menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mareeo64 Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 I love the S+K final boss! And now he's super huge! This is look'n mighty good! (excuse the southern draw! lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironrind Posted April 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 ^^^Thanks, you can preview him in the build below. Note that all he has now is a pretty much a walking cycle and a hop. Tomorrow, I'm going to be moving to a location with no internet. So I'll be offline again for a while aside from my cellphone. I'm still able to work on my projects, but I'll have no way to post them. Here is a sort of 'progress' build for Sonic CB as of today. Garland Grove and Polaroptic Powerplant are playable, but they're not complete. Other players are playable, but their specific abilities haven't yet been added. Included is an old version of Pure Chaotix which is now merged into CB concept-wise. I never released the second zone Botanic Base due to lost external tiles. The zone was never finished, but it will be recreated in CB along with the first zone, Isolated Island/Mystic Oasis.

Core Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 It's great. I've said it before, but this game is really impressive. I'm getting an error when trying to play as Tails alone though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironrind Posted April 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 That's wierd. It might be because of his tail object. I'll check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironrind Posted September 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 Finally making progress for Mystic Oasis. It's not quite there yet, especially with the tiles on the curved sections, but it's far enough for a video play through. Some of the plats are off depth due to really bad math. Any thoughts? It's close to a demo. Mysic Oasis: BTW, is it possible to change my name to Qwerty919? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSF Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 Whoo, Ironrind's back! Love the "cross layer" swing gimmick you got there. Where's the music from, by the way? (yeah, one of the admins can switch your name. Although I think Ironrind is more unique than "qwerty919...") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironrind Posted September 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 That track is Gon's stage music from Tekken 3. I'm using a lot of Tekken bgm which has that sort of hyper 'arcade' vibe to it. And Qwerty919 is my YouTube, so I figured I might as well just match them up =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
