Not talking about the sprite quality, just the design itself.[/quote]

She may be hunched over in that shot, but she looks kind of tall for Amy. Just judging by the leg length, I would say that that kind of design would put her at the same height as Sonic, unless we want to make her taller in this game. The hair also turns her hair into a hybrid of that from old school Amy to new Amy (namely the locks on the side of the head), but still keeps that original 'Amy is a Hedgehog' look. Still, it's a good design, just need to lower the amount of colors and turn her into a sprite.

However, it's something about those boots. Maybe it's because I'm used to old school Amy's shoes? For some reason those boots look too big for her, though I have no problem with switching Amy from shoes to boots.

Okay, the haircut is so.... Grease. She could do with a more '90s look.

And what would be a 90s look?

Okay, scrap the '90s look, the hair is fine :P
Somehow, I remembered '90s hair differently.

So let's see if I got this straight:

Knuckles - Is guarding the Master Emerald when Robotnik, Metal Sonic, and Nack attack. Nack runs off with what appears to be the Master Emerald, Angel Island falls, and Knuckles gives chase. In reality, Nack's emerald is a fake. Robotnik and Metal Sonic have taken the Master Emerald to build a fortress/superweapon around Angel Island. Knuckles catches up to Nack and fights him. Sonic and Tails show up and destroy the fake Master Emerald. By now, Angel Island is converted into Robotnik's fortress.

Sonic - Him, Tails, and Amy are chilling on the beach, when a tidal wave created by Angel Island falling ruins their vacation. They go to investigate, whereupon they discover Nack hassling Knuckles and save him by destroying the fake Master Emerald. Robotnik makes his move, Nack kidnaps Amy, and Sonic goes off to stop him. May or may not end in a fight with a roboticized Robotnik.

Tails - Follows Sonic until they are split near the end. Fights Metal Sonic.



This might be a bad idea, but maybe each character has his own boss? Sonic would fight Robotnik in a machine as per usual, Knuckles fights Nack with a new weapon of some sort, and Tails fights Metal Sonic with either a new body or some stage-related gimmick, maybe?



In reference to the new Amy design: I like it, but the legs and boots should really be shorter, as has been said. I would lose a row of buckles and have them end at her knees. The hair would look at lot less weird if the sides didn't curve outward at the end. Have it curve inward instead, maybe make her spines a little less round, and it should look a bit better.

This is taking place on Angel Island again? Every Megadrive/Genesis canon game has taken place on a new island or location. I would imagine that this game should follow suit.

Wasn't this decided a long time ago?

No.

Nowhere in the doodles or did I ever mention it takes place in Angel Island.

The first thing Knuckles does is get off Angel Island.

Angel Island is stolen and converted into a fortress by Robotnik.

Veemon pretty much got everything straight except the Metal Sonic part.

Because Tails follows Sonic, he should only fight Metal Sonic at the end, like you suggested earlier in your post. Right?

There is the likelihood that this is a very stupid idea, and if so then ignore it.

I do kind of like Chimpo's thing a couple posts above, though.

Seems like a good idea to me, poor Tails getting stuck with Metal Sonic. For some reason, it seems like Tails is at a disadvantage when it comes to fighting Metal Sonic (he always seems to be weak when it comes to fighting anyways), so would pitting Tails against Metal Sonic be fine?

Nothing wrong with a good outmatched boss fight. Besides that, I kind of saw Metal Sonic as different somehow in every fight. Maybe he has different upgrades to fight with or something, and Tails just has to destroy those.

Either way, we might be getting a bit ahead of ourselves.

As Chimpo said, this was already discussed before. Two times. Since my idea was lost in the scrapped topics, I'll try wording it again.

"The scene where Sonic and Tails split should have Sonic clearly leaving Tails to deal with Metal Sonic, in a 'I know you can do it, buddy' sort of way"

Disregard my idea. Entirely. That's perfect.

I love this idea very much. But how are we going to show what's happening on-screen. This storyline is a lot more detailed than traditional Sonic storylines. I think it can't be explained in-game using the sprite cutscenes. So how else can you show stuff like the emerald and fake emerald without words. Without something to point out that there is a counterfiet emerald it will be confusing. Any ideas? Maybe we can use story boards like the end of Sonic 2.
