S2SMTP v.5

Ahh, that would explain it all. Pretty cool, then.

 

Ugh, those stages suck ass. D:

Oh well, good job. Takes a lot of effort to pull off I assume. :P

 

Are you having both special stages? That would be cool, imo.

 

Do I hear suspicion of Hyper Sonic?

 

Not quite was I was thinking, but I suppose that could work out.

 

Well the good thing about them is that they can be edited. I don't know if someone has actually edited a Sonic 2 special stage before.

 

[read: "yes"]

 

BETA now you must give to me!

*shot*

 

Sonic 1 had the best special stages of any Sonic game IMO

 

I actually agree with this. I didnt particularly like Sonic 2 or Sonic 3&K's special stages at all.. That said SEGA could have spiced up the S1 special stages and made them a bit more interesting/taxing.

 

When you exit from the options zone, the HUD gets visible for some frames.

The monitor icon for the shield is square even if you select the round one.

The lightning shield is still visible for a few frames after you entered the big ring.

The act number in "sonic passed act 1" switches to 2 for a few frames before the screen fades out.

Fixplz.

 

Woot! Nice vid, but did you darken the green foreground on the palette somewhat or is that just my imagination 'coz of the crappy youtube quality?
Lots of menu options, looking really good.

Also, I find a square shield a bit too crude looking but a pentagonal, hexagonal or octagonal one might work though.
Of course if you like the square one, it's your show.

Your hack has seriously improved lately and it already was good before.
Keep it up!

 

From observation, I'd say that the big ring isn't removing it at all; the title card/point tally is.
