    I do agree with most things you say. It is incredibly difficult to find that "just right difficulty" for a first level. The very first rendition had many more spikes and pits and a different badnik. The reviews were "It was too difficult!". It is also very hard when I have absolutely next to no beta testers. I test all this shit myself and have one opinion...my own :\

    I do need to add some more badniks, which I will work on in the new levels. They seem half assed.

    Two new badniks. The fly will walk around until you get near it. Once near, it flys up in the air and hovers above you for a while, then dives down and attacks. It hits the ground and produces harmful balls similar to the bomb badnik.

    The shell guy...is a pain in the ass. He will run away from you if you come near. He hides in his shell if you are too close as well. He will randomly stop in his tracks to lay a bomb egg that explodes into littler harmful projectiles. This is the time you can attack him. He also jumps if there is a ledge near or a set of spikes. I hate him

    I will most likely put him into Aqua Planet or Luster Lakes. C&C?

    Hez, I have MMF2 running with the HWA beta just fine (legit copy :P); I could compile it for you and see how it affects performance if you want.

    Looking for a Rom Hack to Test.
    That can easily be rectified.... :) I would LOVE to test this on a regular basis.
     
  5. Okay, some other bugs.

    In Act 2, one of the checkpoints (on a loop) wouldn't activate.. probably on a wrong layer.
    One of the vertically moving platforms crushed me. I was running fast, then jumped over a gap, and overlapped a moving platform in mid-air. Then I died.

    You have to use the enter key quite often, even though the controls are set to joystick.

    The music plays even though it's turned off in the options.

    Ooo, ooo! Pick me, pick me, I'm a picky critic, picking out every minor detail =D
     
  9. Testing Roms would be one thing that I CAN do with next to no hacking experience.

    So consider me a volunteer!

    Hey Hez, I felt like I should drop by and say a huge thanks for this! Your game feels really like a Sonic game and I believe that if you toy a bit more with it you're going to achieve that good balance between platforming and speed that the older Sonic games had.
    Since you're searching for beta testers, drop me a PM if you need help ;). Also could you do me a favor? I saw this video of yours on youtube and I was wondering if you could tell me where I can find this music track: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRP-cRJSyFg

    Thanks in advance!

    Being a massive fan of Genesis/MD Sonic Games in general and having played a lot of people's Hacks/Mods here it would be good to get involved but its cool if Hez already has people in mind.

    Thank you very much for the info, I've tried finding it but the links are down and Tweaker didn't answer :(
    Do you still have it? I'd be greatful if you could upload it for me!

    Btw, Hez are all those badnik sprites yours? It really surprises me how similar they look to badniks from the MD games! Great job there man.

    Patience is a virtue, you know.

    Anyway, here. I'd redo it if I had the drive, since those tambourines are closed hi-hats in the original song. Enjoy, I guess.

    Oh wow you sure know how to make a man happy :D! No offence but I didn't feel like I was pestering you, if that's the case I'm sorry.
    Thanks again!
