Sonic Mania
So, this is a thing. A thing that I don't want to have to wait until spring for.

Re: Sonic Mania
I am actually excited about this. 5 min of sonic on a gamegear before the batteries died is the extent of my sonic experience and none of the newer games have interested me enough to get them, but this just might get me into the series.

Re: Sonic Mania
Sonic Mania does indeed look fantastic, but don't discount the games that are already out there! Colors and Generations were both very good games.Wiw wrote:It looks like this may be the one to save the franchise!

Well. This seems legit. No BS, good music according to the 2nd post. Hype exists.

Re: Sonic Mania
Proper physics confirmed. Looks like Sega are researching other ways to deliberately fuck this up.
j/k this looks ace. And Taxman is on board, so there is a clear understanding of what made Sonic so ace back in the 90's. However, what I'd love to see in addition to this are PC/console ports of those excellent iOS version of 1 and 2 done by the same guy.
and the unreleased S3K port ...

Re: Sonic Mania
what i find intriguing is that the Sonic sprite in this game is an edited one from the first two games, but not the S3&K. do people dislike that sprite or something?

Re: Sonic Mania
Personally, yeah. There's just something about the shapes of his eyes and the shading I'm not too big a fan of.

Re: Sonic Mania
Stealth is working on it, as well as a number of other very prominent fans. This is a pretty big deal. It would be like if a bunch of us all got hired on to work on the next Doom.scalliano wrote: And Taxman is on board

Re: Sonic Mania
Are we finally going to be graced with a Sonic game that doesn't have all those subpar characters from the Dreamcast/Playstation 2 era? Cause that alone is enough to make me hand out cash.

Re: Sonic Mania
Of course, this game will feature only the best character from that era:
