Sonic The Hedgehog: DX

Looks good.

Although she shoudl be panicking more. What with spikes behind him and all.

 

Some typos in the credits. "Stephen, Esrael".

Crawling, huh? Ok, if you don't overuse this technique and slow the game. Sonic game's supposed to be fast after all.

 

Best thing I've seen added to a Sonic hack latley. :P

Now for some crit;


Mystical Forest 2one?
I hope the Sonic sprite moves up and down a bit, so it looks more like hes crawling and not just moving his arms.
The "V" looks very odd in "Very Lame Credits."

Edit: Typo.

 

I know you've probably worked hard on the sprite, but do we really need a crawling ability? Sonic can already roll. I'd also argue that making him slide (like in some new games) would make more sense.

 

The way I understand it, it's probably possible to roll under anything that can be crawled under, but the crawling ability is necessary to prevent Bad Stuff from happening if the player doesn't have enough speed to make it all the way through.
Like, if he ran out of speed rolling under those spikes, he'd get crushed, and die. In other places he'd get pushed into the floor or ceiling and then the player could zip.
Both of these events are gamebreaking.

 

Hey, nice progress since my last beta recieved. I like the ideas, and LOVE those sprites. Remember, if you need any help, I'll try my best to do what is needed.

 

Sure looks great, ThunderSpeed. I've seen plenty doublejumps in various games, but I've never seen one hacked in and look different like that.

Okay, now this will own lives when you finish it. The only potential problem I see with it is that a cost of 50 rings seems like way too much. Wouldn't something lower, like 10 or 15 rings, work better?

 

I agree that 50 rings is way too expensive for that, unless it kills bosses in one hit, it should be more like 10.

 

It told him that 25 rings would be a good cost... :P

I'm getting dragged along for the ride with Jake's Shadow hack... So, I decided to try coding something, and succeeded. Staying up till 4 in the god damn morning coding wasn't exactly fun, but I got a Hyper Sonic effect on Shadow when he reaches certain speeds.


This is after Shadow got the speedshoes and did his boot charge or whatever the hell its called. The after image thingies won't show up if you charge without the speed shoes.

Just Shadow rolling down a hill, no big deal.

Now, Shadow only has these after images when he's either moving with -A00 or +A00 horizontal speeds, or -700 or +700 vertical speeds. Coding this little routine wasn't fun, but I like it's effects. :P

I've also fixed two other bugs. The spike bug was one of them... I only found out that someone posted a fix for it after I fixed it myself... ah well. I also fixed Sonic's speed cap for when he's on the ground, so the after images show up longer during game play. Screenshots don't do justice for removing speedcaps, unless you edit the level to make Sonic fly off screen when he's going so fast, which hasn't happened yet. That was a rediculous bugfix, cause I overthought it way too far, it only required about 3 lines of code. :P

By the way, Jake, you really need to change your password for Photobucket, that was too easy. ;P

 

After images look interesting, but it doesn't look like they flash right. Maybe it's just me, though.

 

This stuff is fucking ace, TS. Keep up the good work.

 

YOU DONE STOLED MY AIR DASH YOUS BASTARD

 

I like that idea, figure out what happened to Shadow, and make him get captured in an Egg capsle at the end of the game (leading to Sonic Heroes) :D MUHAHAHA! YOU CAN'T WIN!
