I made this in GHZ, but if I do it, it will end up in SBZ (I only did it there since SBZ is being worked on). I will also be using the vertical slope so that the upper path can cross over to the lower path.

This is awesome. I wanted to see complex loops in a hack since forever. Feel free to make them even more complex :D

 

I remember I was working on a layout for S2O a while ago when working on it, and I tried something like this. It was fucking hell. And impossible if you don't have boosters on the loop. Although, you have done a much better version than what mine was going to be like. Mine cut off half way and went into this freaky platform thing.
But seriously, nice job. And I love the concept art for SYZ. It, similarly to GHZ, is sticking close to the original in the main level art, with a completely new background with only some similarities. I like it.

 

Maybe to make it have more variety, you could have the top have a seperate path to go down.

 

I've tried your demo and I love what you've done so far. The graphics are absolutely beautiful! I also like the little boss intro you guys have worked in. I would complain about your sinister badnik placement (this is just the first zone, after all), but even that is done with style. I like everything I've seen in this thread too. The MGZ and SYZ graphics you posted are gorgeous!

Please, keep up the good work!

 

Sky and buildings look great, but yeah you need sth better for the ground.

Maybe some desert with sandhills, but not as plain as dust hill and a few bigger ones of those buildings close by? Or oasis palmtrees lol.

 

I'm going to keep my eyes on this. Seriously, it looks fun. I don't really have any negative critique.. Maybe tweak Sonics sprites if you want, but looks good.

 

This looks very good!

Props to you!

 

Get rid of the water.

 

I'd have to see it in motion to decide if I like it or not. Looks like it might work well.

 

Can't you just have a ground texture that fits the water scrolling? The water doesn't really fit, sorry.

 

I felt the water works great. It's almost like a lake-side level. I just feel if he used a ground texture it would look too plain unless he reworked the foreground to match it.

 

Together with the buildings above, it reminds me of Marina Madness, which is no bad thing.

 

Personally I love the water. However I think a different color for the water is in order.

 

Keep the water, but use different art. The GHZ water is crap. =P

 

Maybe doing something like the water in EHZ would look better with the reflection of the buildings.
