Shouldn't this be posted in Concepts/Ideas instead? At least the first part -- though since you don't have any screenshots for the second part I guess you really ought also keep that out of this topic as well.
Why everyone complaining about "Nack have no reason to fight sonic/ Join robotnick" We making a new game... Let's give him a reason. Then, what about cutting circus zone off, because there is not circus zones in sonic series. We creating a new story.
Well there is a Circus type Cliche. Well more of a Carnival theme, but Balloon park and Carnival Night. They're very similar concept wise so I say keep it, besides looking at the concept it actually looks pretty enjoyable and if done properly then it could be a very speedy level.
Besides, I think it would be rather dull to make all the levels fit too closely with the old ones. A new Sonic game ought to try to introduce new stuff so as not to feel too old hat.
But Nack is already an established character, however unnoticed he may be. That would be out of character for him...

Whoever is controlling the thing would be most likely watching another screen right in front of him/it, so his eyes wouldn't be moving much. I think the original round eyes would fit much better in there (as they're similar to other badniks'), but only if they're physical eyes, so the signpost badnik would actually use them to see where Sonic is. So, after whatever animation is played on the sign to unveil its fakeness, its screen could just turn off and then the whole thing could flip and unveil the eyes on the other side.
Nack would be great for an act 1 mini boss in the zones. As the player reaches the end of the level, by suprise Nack would be standing there chuckling, then will run away and jump into a machine that can be defeated by 3 or 4 hits. When he is defeated he will stand there in disbelief and then run away and the sign will fall.
Yeah, I'd like to see that too. (By the way, see This thread for the decisions already taken, please.)

He looks... happy. Blissfully, absurdly happy; like a dog about to get his ear scratched by Dr. Robotnik. Also, maybe it's just me, but there's something weird about the way the top spike on his back arcs. It almost looks flimsy. That little bumpy V formed between that spike and the one below it also looks off for some reason. The little version looks good, though. :-)
The top spike seems to me that it was a little overstretched. Otherwise, great job! The smiling is the kind of creepy thing that would be great for a boss. It's like the robot's thinking, I'm killing you and enjoying it so much right now.

[/quote] Perhaps it could share some elements from the two Metal Sonics. Perhaps it could have Metal Sonic's head and feet with Mecha Sonic's visor and limb structure, which would make it look like a deadlier version of Sonic CD's/Chaotix' Metal Sonic.
@STHX, is that something you just recently sprited? Because it seems really familiar for some reason.
