I remade the Metal Sonic boss fight for the Sega Saturn. It just started with a sprite compression/decompression test...and it evolved. I had obviously to fill a lot of blanks as little was seen from the original! I hope you guys enjoy. The file is currently hosted at SegaXtreme, the Sonic fan game HQ should approve shortly. Release notes : Full remake of the Metal Sonic boss fight from Sonic X-Treme. I reused assets found on the leaked 718 build and from the official SDK to recreate that famous fight in a new engine. It's a very quick project, built from scratch in around 15 hours with little to no testing, so please reports any bugs found! Huge huge huge thanks to the folks at Sonic X-Treme Unity discord and to Andrew75 for some of the assets (title card, buildings, background, etc.). The game is NOT PAL optimized! Built using SGL and SBL. https://sonicfangameshq.com/forums/showcase/sonic-z-treme-metal-sonic.851/
This is a very Solid technical showcase that can run on real Saturn hardware. Just look at them Reflections! lol And if people have CRT TV's the translucency looks amazing too! I noticed in the screens above that it shows the translucency, were these screens taken with an emulator that has a filter? or ?
Those shots are on real hardware. The crystal and fire effects use dithering, while the rest is real transparency.
Ive commented on the youtube video but I want to add on here that this is amazing and I've been playing this a few times over christmas! Would love to see a Fang boss level.........
