It's time to drop a little bomb

This is amazing. That is all.

 

That is one VERY impressive piece of work there Taxman. That is hands down one of the coolest things I've seen to date in this community!

As for me wanting it... I'm not much of a gamer these days, and I don't even have any portable devices, so I don't know that I would help Sega's cause in answering yes or no either way. But I bet a lot of other people would want it.

 

Holy Shit...

Sonic 2 Spindash comes to mind and maybe more fluid movement... I'll think about it tomorrow. I PC port would be nice too.

Oh both sound tracks both sound tracks! This is probably the most exciting piece of Sonic related news I've heard since the announcement of Sonic Adventure.

 

(nods at the SCD looping project)

...what? Having these tracks loop on this version would be pretty cool. I don't own an iPhone or iPod Touch and probably never will, but this is still a novel idea. Fantastic work, Taxman!

 

I don't have an iPhone, either... but it would be great for this to happen.

If only for the facts that
1) Sonic CD doesn't get ported much, and
2) Considering how poorly made certain Sonic ports to portable systems have been.

 

There is a huge amount of comments in that blog post asking for Shining Force...

That said, I think it'd be a good idea to provide a setting to make the controls not interfere with the screen. I wouldn't like my fingers covering the bottom of the game screen, although this most likely will involve having a smaller game display area :/

 

With Wiiiiiiiiiiide screen? Do want!

 

Three things:

1: Yes. a Sonic CD port would be fucking badass.
2: Both soundtracks please.
3: Or fuck, why not an option for custom soundtracks too?
3.5: JP soundtrack with SNCBNK music files attached?

 

Oh my god, I think I just pissed my pants.

EDIT: Also, remember when Stealth released a copy of SCD where you could play as Knuckles or Tails as well?

Yeah, that.

 

Wait, this is remade with a different engine instead of being ported? It looks exactly the same - good job! Though I don't have an iPhone, I'm all for this.

 

I'm more interested in the source of the song.

 

Thank you kind sir.

 

Wow! The Retro engine is amazingly accurate these days! I don't actually have an iPhone, but if I did this would be an instant buy!

If Sega allowed you would you consider porting it to other platforms? e.g. Wiiware, XBLA, PC, DS (if technically possible, im not sure the music would fit on a DS cartridge)

 

As long as the original Japanese soundtrack is used, I'm happy.

I might not have an iPhone, but this is pure awesomeness! Get Sega to make this for PSN/XBLA/WiiWare with both soundtracks!

 

I don't own an iPhone, don't consider getting one sometime, and simply don't want one. I'm also not a fan of classic or standard games being made for it as it seems too awkward; I've been gaming for 20 years and actually feeling a d-pad or analogue stick and buttons makes a huge difference, something that a touch screen simply cannot recreate.

That said, your concept wowed me. Even with the lack of physical inputs, it still seems responsive, which is of course very important. Possibly even more important though, is the fact that I can tell you actually put some effort into this, something that SEGA themselves aren't doing (EMU+ROM=BANGDONE); the adjusted resolution, the life icon being moved, the different music tracks loading instantly, the full 60FPS framerate. Also, the title screen remix? Do want! Your project has actually changed my vision of classic games on iPod/iPhone: Clearly, if some real effort is put into your work then it'll be good, it's just not common enough of a practice. If your project makes it through, I think I'll buy the game so I can play it on my girlfriend's iPod, even if I don't own one of my own.

That said, I really liked the fact that the Act completion music was from the Japanese soundtrack. I'm also going to echo other people in saying that having both soundtracks would quite possibly be the best part of that port and would instantly net you a ton of points.


EDIT: Also, this:

 

I hope you like playing with a good chunk of the screen missing.
