Project AXSX (Sonic Xtreme and SONIC CD REMIX A 2.5D game)

Very nice Andrew, I've been following this game since 1996 and your project since it showed up in here, I can't wait, GREAT work so far. This will be one hell of a X-mas present

Well, you got the lens flare correct - now you just need more brown.

 

Wow. Just wow. I've never been as floored by a fan project as I have been when I tried this. Your efforts shine through, and it's amazing to see it in action! Please continue your work with this, and don't stop until you've got a complete game. Again, amazing.

 

Does this work standalone?

Of course it does!

 

Really enjoyed what I played of this Captures a very retro feel without feeling washed up or old. Bravo.

 

Not too sure if the fix is a global code thing or a case-by-case basis, but here's one instance in case of the latter.

You said that you removed the paper Mario billboard effect, but that only applies to the rings. have you considered applying the fix to other objects such as the vines, tree,s and crystals?

Also, maybe you should employ a semi-on rails system that snaps Sonic to the paths as he jumps between them. It's somewhat difficult to control Sonic without falling off. Maybe a minimalist version of what I describe could help, even if it's optional. Otherwise, I love this demo a lot (It's improved since last year's private version was created)! It's really fun to explore, and I do like the original e3 map. Thanks for the fun .

 

Billboarding icicles and vines is a bad idea. They wouldn't even attach at the edges anymore.

 

I fell down, through a slope, into the floor, and couldn't get out. I wish I'd been capturing video to show it...

 

I'd have to agree on the whole rails system for certain areas thing.

You should defiantly get some beta testers from the pickiest retro members to really get the perfect level designs when you start on those.


EDIT: I found a weird glitch near one of the double-jump frozen waterfalls. You know how there are two slightly higher ledges in-between the frozen river? Sometimes, when I walk onto one of them and back onto the river, Sonic doesn't go down on the floor. You can still play normally, he kind of hovers above the ground.

 

This is great. It feels a little loose, but it's not at all a bad thing. I've got no glitches or bugs to report so far, but I do have a little complaint about the spin-dash-- doing it facing left or right shoots Sonic off at an angle instead of directly left or right (according to the fish eye anyway).

Also that first music track is awesome.

 

I actually didn't know that there was a double jump at first. Now that I think of it Sonic DID have one in the PC videos did he not? Well anyway, I don't think the level is designed "poorly" It is really fun to explore.... it's more like a hub world in this aspect actually!

 

Gotta try that.
