Speaking of the last special stage... why not, say make it a race? You could, say, be racing Metal Sonic, for example.

I thought there was going to be a race between Sonic and a previous version of Metal Sonic for each one.

Splash Wave was probably my least favorite of the songs from that game. Still, I do think it would fit in well with all the other music in the game I've done so far, so I may just try my hand at it.

Why don't we have all the songs from OutRun in the special stages, but done in a more Sonic-y style?
For example, Magical Sound Shower for the first two, then Passing Breeze, then Step On Beat, and then a different song for the last special stage?

On another note, are the special stages going to be enter-able per act or per zone? If we made it so that each zone had a specific special stage with an emerald in it, we could make each special stage have it's own theme.

Magical Song Shower is overrated. Needs moar Splash Wave & Risky Ride. =P

Fuck Metal Sonic.
We shouldn't give him too fucking much space in the game, it will feel unprofessional, it will feel too much like a retarded fangame, no Metal Sonic at the Special Stage pee-lee-ase.

You could probably steal a few ideas from Space Harrier as well.

but yeah, Outrun special stage sounds sexcellent



of course you could also change all the cars into Sonic characters... I mean there's that many!

Just a reminder there, ace: You are making a fangame.

Or should I say, talking about making a fangame. Somebody do something already. Outrun is, in my opinion, your best idea and by gauging the response in this thread, it's also the most popular.

Great, now somebody do it.

Basically this. I don't know why anyone here thinks we're not making a fan game—we are. Any Sonic game that is fan-made and not official is... a fan game. Pretty simple concept.

And for the record, hacks are fan games, too. We're not somehow special or "exempt" to that concept—this is a fan game. We should try and make it stand above the rest, certainly, but we're not getting out of being called a fan game—that wouldn't make sense and would be incredibly pretentious.
