Here's a weird bug: When you finish the game without or with all Emeralds and restart the game again, in the intro sequence, the floor disappears and you die, giving the white screen of death. :v:

This happens with all characters.

I was confused that you had to find the emerald monitor in order to get to the end of levels. Maybe if the player hasn't gotten the emerald when they reach the barrier at the end, a speech bubble with a emerald can pop up above Sonic (similar to the hearts above Amy in Sonic CD). Something to cue the player in on what's up.

Does nobody read changes.txt? =P

I'll have to work on that one =P

Code (Text):

;==============================================

;Day Sixteen (For Day 17's build).

;==============================================

;- Fixed a bug causing the correct art for the spliff/emerald monitors not to load.

;- Improved the spliff monitors art.

;- Restored Regular RetroHack Screen

;- New RetroHack Screen only seen once after each time completing the game

;- Reprogrammed new RH screen to skip the intro

;- Doing the above prevents the endless-intro-after-death bug.

;- Intro no longer shows a buggy HUD.

;- Intro can no longer be paused.

;- Intro can't be skipped only the first time viewing (after booting up), all other times it can be skipped by pressing start.

;- Fixed a bug similar to the Walk-Jump bug, that happens when walking into sideways spikes

;- Implimented Hyper Sonic. Only available by setting emeralds to $12 [ FFFE57:12 ], as it's still buggy.

Day 17

13 days to go, and man, am I running out of ideas. =P

Look at the following:
- Fix the end of act results screen.
- Implement a new object.
- Implement a new boss.
- Add a giant =P somewhere.

Cinossu · Sep 26, 2010

Add more characters? Tails, Knuckles, other Chaotix members..

Tidbit · Sep 26, 2010

I say add in Hidden palace zone. I've always wanted to see it in sonic1.

Icewarrior · Sep 26, 2010

I'd suggest adding water to GHZ and intro pics to each zones like in Sonic 2 (8 bits)

I always loved those but I have no idea if it's feasable in a hack.

BadCopNoDonut · Sep 26, 2010

Make some more art tweaks?

That would be good. Vector and Charmy were never been used on hacks (as far I know...) and Espio is only in HiveBrain's South Island Adventure.

Or add the damn cake. =P

How about an additional zone, or ports of zones from other games such as CD?

Also, you should release tutorials on how you did some of the bugfixes and features in your hack, like the sideways spike walk bug.

I just love this hack so far, it's very special.

PsychoSk8r · Sep 27, 2010

The sideways spike bugfix is now available on the Wiki, as part of the following bugfix: SCHG_How-to:Fix_the_Walk-Jump_Bug_in_Sonic_1

Day 18

Yuski · Sep 27, 2010

Sweet! The art of this level is excellent! =)

Bug: When you detransform in Debug mode with Sonic2, the character mappings screw up.

Spanner · Sep 27, 2010

I called it, you would be making a better version of your old hack.
By the way, fix the music. =P

PsychoSk8r · Sep 27, 2010

Well, debug mode will be removed in public builds from now on, I think. =P

SOTI: You talking about GHZ2? =P

Also, I wasn't planning on bringing anything back from Modernisation Project, until I found a /really/ old back-up, that I didn't know I had.

Here's one of my compositions, which I've wanted to use. Zone 3 act 1 is what I've called the song:
http://www.retrohack.org/30days/Zone3Act1.mid

and here is how it sounds ingame (currently being used as Sonic's boss theme:
http://www.retrohack.org/30days/zone3act1.mp3

There's also an act 2 version, which never got SMPS'd:
http://www.retrohack.org/30days/Zone3Act2.mid

Edit: I forgot to mention, I wrote these keeping the MD Limits in mind, which funnily enough, made it so much better than expected. =P

MarkeyJester · Sep 27, 2010

That GHZ level art is pretty slick and nice, the colours are interesting too!

Dude · Sep 27, 2010

If you're out of ideas, why not add a time attack mode and ghost race ability?

Those keep me replaying games for way longer than is healthy.

Also, you gotta do something about how bright the GHZ 1 palette is. my eyes... they bleed.

Icewarrior · Sep 27, 2010

Ooooooooooh that GHZ art, it could really work as an Aqua Lake Zone remake! Love it anyway
