Controls:

* Air Dash: Press A,B or C while holding the D-pad to dash forward in any direction.

To Fix:

* Add title screen and continue animations.
* Possibly edit character hit radius.
* Ending demos fixed, normal ones are crappy.

Don't have much experience with Chaotix, but it's cool that theres another character port.

Although I don't care for Charmy, it's awesome to see that you keep making character hacks. ^_^ With this rate, every single character in the franchise will be in Sonic 1. :3

I like focusing on characters, I know I should do some level design stuff at some point but I have more fun with the actual player.

We must be at least half way game wise (I think we made a list of the Vector thread). Alt media wise though...

I love this. Makes the game so cheap and easy.


Fuck yeah.

Just played through GHZ and it feels really fresh. No jumping and dashing to do everything makes it feel like a new game. I hope you port the rest of the chaotix characters. Even though Mighty is in some peoples hacks a character port would still be good as we can play through the original levels as him with same moves intact hopefully.

The problem is that the majority of unique abilities the remaining Chaotix team have are related to wall collision, which I still haven't figured out how to do. If I figure out how to program such stuff I can hopefully program Mighty and Espio into Sonic 1 (along with Vector's climb move) until then I don't really have much to implement apart from sprites which have already been done in other projects.

Awesome as always, but why are people talking about "ports"? Aren't these characters being built from scratch, based on how the Chaotix characters behave? (ie. no ports involved)

Nineko, your aspie is showing.


Anyway so I pretty much just finished it now. The lack of jumping is a pretty cool idea, but as I said before it makes the game VERY cheap, except maybe on LZ. Maybe make the levels smaller height-wise so there isn't a huge area where you can just fly over the entire level? Also, it's a bit difficult to control during some of the more precise moments, but I'm not sure there's much you can do about that.

Correct, not like I have the capacity to port characters from Chaotix anyway.

Wow, that's quick. Thanx. :D

The thing is this is meant to be a translation of Charmy's Chaotix gameplay into Sonic 1, as is. It's cheap but it's how the original Charmy would play (I hope anyway). The lack of precision hopefully balances it out anyway.

Hey, Psi.

You should make the special stages play with Charmy's all-direction dash. It'd be sooo cheap, but it'd be awesome and you know it.

[RGamer2009]

Just played and beat this awesome hack.

Only thing I recommend is allowing him to roll by holding down against a slope. Feels Un-Sonicy that he can't at least ROLL.

Charmy definitely breaks the game though. :D

Boss fights have become ten times more awesome though:

[True Dude]

Hoping for Espio next, and a possibility of all Chaotix in one ROM after that.

Come to think of it, with your skills you could port rocket knight into the game easily. I hope you are a rocket knight fan.
