  1. In Topic: Screens of "Sonic Allies" (New Title)

    Yeah E06 does have a mac port... I played around with it for a total of 5 minutes, but I kinda forgot about the program...

    Currently, Mercury and I are collaborating, and working out the kinks of the game design and looking to make a finished game.

    As always, updates will occur over time. Also, the title has been changed to simply "Sonic Allies"

    EDIT: I would assume that once this project gets out of the concept stage... there will be a new thread posted in the reverse engineering board

    I'm in love with the level select mock up.

    Sounds like good ideas for fangame (and, why not, a hack - would be VERY hard, but I don't think it should be unachieveable, only maybe for color limits, but I don't know about pallet stuff). Good luck implementing them.

    Looks pretty sweet though. I'll give it a whirl when you release something.

    Tl;dr. Is this a hack or a fangame. And if it is a fangame, which program/language whatever?

    I want to clarify that these are Ideas/Concepts. Seriously, steal them. I say this because while I have no Rom hacking experience, I would like to take stabs at it... unfortunately, I'm running on a mac (kinda regret it these days), and there are close to nill utilities that run on OS X. I've looked at, and tried to study the rom hacking guides, but without some utilities to get some hands-on experience... I'm really powerless as to what I can achieve hacking wise. Also, I wouldn't know where to start with any other languages... since, my programming skills are pretty weak. sad.png

    But seriously, I put these out for everyone here because if I cannot contribute here with hacking skills or music composing, then I'd like contribute with my strong points: Ideas, direction, and artistic skills. So if you're mega-inspired by what you see of mine, cherry pick from it and put them in your own hacks.

    So uh, what progress has been done besides mock-ups and concepts? It really does sound like you have some fantastic ideas, matey. But do change the name. What you have now is terrible.

    I struggled over the name for a while. I can't call it "sonic 4" that's too arrogant. Similarly, names like, "Sonic: The Final Fight", "Sonic & Knuckles & Tails", "Sonic: Hates Eggman" are just tacky (obviously my examples are). Also, single word titles and random letters after the title... those are also over used "Sonic 2: expanded plus DXZY (shadow edition)"

    So, I'm open to different titles... but I just kept it simple with what I've temporarily chosen

    Why are there 12 emeralds?

    Maybe, knuckles found some more.

    Looks like the Toys R us website has the Metal Sonic JUVI figure in stock. I suggest you order him ASAP because we know how much everyone likes Metal, and there are only going to be 3000 of these made. Order here.
    He actually looks like a baby version of Metal Sonic:

    It's like my admiral ackbar figure by mighty muggs:


    "It's A TRAP!!!"

    unlike most people here, I approve of this little metal sonic statue that could

    Well, color me curious.

    Speaking of colors, these mock-ups were done in photoshop... so I'm aware of palette issues (some "screens" were saved in 16bit color, but they turned out crappy)

    If this were to actually become a reality, palettes would be pretty key to replicate the quality of these mock-ups for Gen hardware (unless this were to be a 32x hack).

    I've been doodling mock-sonic-levels since '06, and only since I've found this site and forum have I been hauling ass creating pixel art versions of these bosses/concepts.
