This is a pretty slow moving project between myself, OrdosAlpha and SpirituInsanum, we work on it when we get in the mood to, which isn't as often as I'd probably like. It will become available sometime, no worries about that, although I couldn't say exactly when.
Now this is pretty awesome and a good idea too, I always wanted to somehow recreate the Labrynth boss from Sonic 1 SMS, but then life got in the way of learning somehow XD Hope it all goes well! And Stephen, that looks absolutely amazing, can't wait to see more, whenever that may be
Bridge Zone remakes are nice, but I really hope to see variety in slopes, new gimmicks, etc. because the zone would need a whole level design re-imagination to be interesting in a Mega Drive game. Basic ramps and slopes is at least a good start. It seems a lot of older Bridge Zone remakes missed this and ended up with a boring zone because they stuck too close to the GG/MS version.
A variation of this contraption needs to be in a Bridge Zone remake. They work exactly like the seesaws in the original Bridge Zone, so find a way to implement them into your hack or whatever.
Yeah, I need to think of some way of doing this. I was considering just using the spike ball on a see-saw from... Was it Hill Top Zone? But the sprite is very screwy, not sure how to fix that.
Star Light zone has similar see saws. The idea of adding extra routes sounds ethical by the way, since Bridge was very linear. As mentioned, the level would likely be rather dull without some extra divergions and platforms to roam around in.
I recognise that foreground.. what game is that from? Looks good in there, although it really doesn't match the "Sonic style" in my opinion.. but ah well. :U
Everything in that picture, except for the fence (placeholder) and the mountains is 100% original. The clouds, water, rock, grass, tree and even the Sonic sprite used are all brand new and not from any other game (or at least I hope not, as it'd mean someone has used the art without permission). You may recognise the foreground from the screenshots topic on SSRG, as SpirituInsanum has shown it off there before, but that's the only place you should have seen it.
Still, it doesn't look like a Sonic level unless you're planning to make ALL of the assets from scratch (even the sprites themselves). Both the Hedgehog and the Bridge looked out of place compared to the rest of the level.
Cinossu, I think you're recognising it from Stephen's previous screenies, I'm pretty sure the background was in a planned hack with a Bridge Zone remake.
If you look at what I wrote, I specifically said foreground. :P I know about the background already. Hm, possibly. Ah well, as has been said, it's good but doesn't fit the style of the rest. :P
Its been a while since I have last shown progress on my S3K hack. Gave Sandopolis a new palette, as I think this will fit well.
I quite like the look of that palette, kinda gives a new feel to the zone, which makes me eager to see the sort of layout there would be accompanying it.
Looks like Sandopolis at sunset, which would explain why the pillared structure is bluish-purple since it's getting dark. That's how I see it, and I love it.
Um.. what? what crazy trap have you given us this time Selbi?. I get the feeling I'd be dreading being Sonic in that screenshot!.
