Apricity Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Having barely survived a third crash the Death Egg resides in a lonely lake, to broken to do anything. Robotnik is presumed dead two years without him or his interference would suggest the maniacal scientist is gone for good. Knuckles has reclaimed his Master Emerald and guards it closely. One day small lights come from the lake where the Death Egg is sitting and small construction appear around it, curious to work out what is happening Sonic and Tails head off to the lake. All is going fine for Knuckles until a blue figure speeds in and steals the Master Emerald, determined to reclaim his emerald Knuckles gives chase as he is lead towards the Death Egg. The heroes spring into action on dangerously similar paths through 9 retro-styled zones. Where is Robotnik? What is happening to the Death Egg? Who is that blue figure? The mysteries will unravel as the Death Egg saga comes to a final climactic close with so much more than ever before at risk, can our heroes do it?

Apricity Posted October 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Yeah. I have no engine right now so thats all I can do. Thanks:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luksamuk Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 You're welcome. You got plenty of great graphics here. You have any practice with MMF2? I'd recommend you to start looking into that "Very-early" version of Sonic Worlds (Which is actually most likely a base engine). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apricity Posted October 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Thanks again! I'm very competant with GameMaker I just got frustrated with the sluggyness of the Sonic Dash and Sonic Dash+ engines so I scrapped the engine and I'm waiting for Mercurys Game Maker engine but I'll probably tinker around with MMF2 in the meantime.

Apricity Posted November 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 Been on a slight hiatus. Had a lot of exams lately aswell as some needing to confort some friends through serious life matters and they've completely swamped me and then my band keeps wanting more meetups so it's hard fitting things in. I'll be honest conceptually I've progressed a lot but in terms of actual work it's rather slow but in no way is this project dead:) I'll have some progress soon, I've had a lot of trouble with my new level in that the bark on the tree's is not detailed enough and the grass look's too detailed for a Sonic game. I'll eventually migrate to only really using this thread but for the time being I post some stuff on the WIP thread too. Thanks for the kind words!:') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazefireLP Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 I can't wait to get my metaphorical paws on this game. It looks like it will be visually fantastic and perform like a charm. Those tiles and backgrounds....*drewl*. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apricity Posted November 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 Danke! Gracias! WIP so far. I need to actually add water, add more detail to the bark of the trees and make the foreground leaves blend better with the behind ones. Kind of a proof that It's not dead kinda thing D; Feel free to critique but bear in mind it's gonna change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TailsSena Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 That actually looks just fine. Trees, espectially ones in the background don't need that much attention in terms of detail purely because of how Sonic Games work. You go fast, practically ignoring the background, it would be safe to say that a zone almost devoid of any detail is just as fun as an uber HD zone... Perfect example is to compare Planet Wisp from colors to Test Zone in worlds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P3DR0 Posted November 19, 2011 Report Share Posted November 19, 2011 Not trying to be a smartass in here but... Water isn't exactly blue, it just reflects the color of the sky. So I made a few color changes and: Fix'd? I'd just changed the colors (and inserted a new one to smooth the transition from the dark blue to a orange-brown) it needs some work too look fine. Also I'd darken'd the trees in front of the mountain and the leaves on the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenor Posted November 19, 2011 Report Share Posted November 19, 2011 [qimg]http://i.imgur.com/d1LvR.png[/qimg] That's really pretty. It's impressive how a simple color change makes the sunset feel so much more prominent and natural. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apricity Posted January 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 This is going on hold indefinitely. I may get back into this later on but right now it's not worth pursuing for undisclosed reasons. Sorry to anyone upset or that has helped. I appreciated it. A mod can feel free to lock this.

Apricity Posted February 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 No need to bump an old thread. I really doubt in anyway that Sega found out my games storyline which I've told like 3 people in PM's then "stole" my idea. While yes it's storyline is similar I really don't care and I doubt Sega for one minute would bother to go through fangames to find ideas. Just a conincidence.
