    This project is hereby canceled. Rather than type it all out here, just read my tumblr post. The bit pertaining to this game is near the bottom.

    Not where I want to be.
    Sonic (?): Coming summer of 2055...?
    You've had a shitty year. Hope 2013 works out better for you.

    How unfortunate, for such a great project to end. I too hope that 2013 will be a better year for you Blaze.

    Well, somebody pointed me to a way to fix my problem, so this may be back on yet... depending on when I get my main PC back up and running.

    Look at me, digging up an old post of mine!

    Somebody on Tumblr asked if I still had this file, and rather than release the same old dumb April Fools build with the cheat codes for selecting levels, I made a completely "new" version with a proper level selection and setup menu. Of course, it's not really that new, but I guess the build of Act 3 contains new/different stuff versus the old April Fools version.

    It's about 19mb and comes in two flavors:


    The second one is a self-extracting executable, just in case you don't have 7zip installed for some reason. There's a read me file included if you care about that stuff.

    I will probably also throw this up on my Patreon, if only because that's been a safer, more stable place to keep downloads than, say, Mega.co.nz. I know how questionable that is, but I figure that as long as I also provide these fangame downloads for free (re:mega.co.nz), without requiring payment, then it's probably fine. Hopefully.

    Bumping one last time. I occasionally do kinda-sorta let's play videos of my own games on my Youtube channel, giving sort of a director's commentary on my thought processes. Decided to do one on this game

    But this also signals me releasing a new build of Sonic Forever. Nothing major was changed. It's just, upon trying to capture footage of the ghost replay race stuff, I noticed none of it worked and nobody told me. So I figured out what was wrong and fixed it. You can now save a replay to a file and either watch the replay or race against it.
