Xth for Eggman best character
A Haiku to Penders
>Father of our Knux
>The savior of the series
>He did nothing wrong
*Hides around corner*
First for Silver a cute!
A cute!!
Sonic is the best character in the franchise!
Vanilla is a cute teenager, age 17!
>t. Sonic the Hedgehog
Go suck on a chilidog, blue rat.
...
She should've been in Forces.
Have a fun vacation user.
I agree.
Note that this is a very early WIP.
This is the result of the raw model import. No material, or stat changes have been applied yet which is why he looks kinda' bland right now.
...
Sonic is shit.
At full speed I think he should do what Metal Sonic does and just hover.
Oh GHP dude, did you get my suggestion? (this was a while ago)
If Silver is gonna be a slower runner, I think his jump should be slightly higher and more floaty to compensate. so he's more of a platforming character first rather than speed. I dunno if that works or not, but that was my thoughts
*BEEP* *BEEP
Best ship coming through.
No he isn't.
I'm really excited to see your progress on this, GHPAnon!
I remember you mentioning you were going to make him slow but people thought he should be fast, did you make a decision on that?
Yes he is.
I asked a question last time that maybe you didn't see.
You said you wanted everyone to play more or less like Sonic, but with characters like Silver and Tails, are you going to add in their various gimmicks? and if so would you ever think about giving Amy some hammer stuff or something else to Blaze?
>17 and still taller than most others
...
No one cares user. No one. Fucking. Cares.
I care
I almost want to take OC drawing requests myself from people in the thread explicitly to piss off the lurking anons whining about the OCfaggotry
You reply as if this one post is somehow unique among the first dozen or so.
That's actually a really cute drawing of the two.
When you're unbanned it'll be long time no see
Fapping invisible man isn't allowed in this blue board, enjoy your ban
Seriously. What in the fuck was Sega going for when they brought back Metal and Chaos?
StoryAnon here. Almost perfect timing! What is on your mind? Haven’t posted much since the last slew of user input (VERY good input I must say, can’t wait to use it), since I am busy re-writing my bible into Scrivener since I got it cheap for Black Friday. Learning how to use it now, but should help in making the drafting process soooooo much smoother. This will be in a way like writing Sonic, Sonic Universe, and a 3rd thing at once, all trying together! Eternally grateful to the user who brought up “The Baron” and the one that had some tips on Shard.
Nostalgia
Say what you will about the flaws Gen 7 has and even how R-Rocket wasn't as amazing as it could've been, but the fights were hype as shit, especially Giovanni
...
More like false advertising. You don't even fight Chaos.
Don't know about the others but they may have brought back Chaos exclusively for a tie-in to an shitty movie
I actually was gonna ask about the Baron. So he’s in? Awesome!
but they were just illusions, if anything it was Sonic Generations that brought back the villains of past games.
shh, if we don't talk about the movie it'll just go away
The urge to kill myself is great
upside down kissu
Are you gonna add rails?
Yep. That's the idea.
That was my thought as well.
Good to see that folks are hyped. The thing with these characters is that they all have the potential to go just as fast as Sonic. See, there are two values that dictate a character's speed: Their "Run Speed" and their "Top Speed." Run Speed dictates how fast they can move when they get up to speed on flat ground. Top Speed dictates how fast the character can move period.
The trick here is that all characters will be capable of reaching the Top Speed of 343 m/s (the speed of sound), so Silver and Amy will be just as fast as Sonic during speed sections, but be slower during more traditional platforming sections.
I'm afraid Tails is not slated to join this project at this time. Tails' model being mapped to Sonic's rig just doesn't look right. In addition, the scope of this project is to make a SONIC character controller that captures /sthg/'s ideals of how Sonic should move, sound and feel. These other characters with minor physics changes are a BONUS feature and are not a major selling point of the project. All of these extra characters were selected because they fit Sonic's skeleton well enough and I feel that I can get away with making them feel more, or less like Sonic without it being a complete betrayal of their character.
>TL;DR, think of these extra characters as what Tikal and Chaos are to Knuckles in SA2B. They're almost the same with just a couple tweaks that fit their characters.
I hope this is a clear enough explanation of what my goals are. Sorry if they weren't clear enough before, user!
Not an excuse. Illusions or not they're still wasted potential.
The baron will be back. Relationship to Bunnie may be different of course, new 252 and everything. Without spilling plans, I think it might benefit the story for there to be more conflict than what they had with thier tiff with the Sandblasters. Looking into what family really is, kind of like the last Sonic Universe Arc with Razor the Shark.
Pokémon honestly did just as shitty a job with it though. Much like Sonic, the only good part of it was the music.
why?
>In addition, the scope of this project is to make a SONIC character controller that captures /sthg/'s ideals of how Sonic should move...
Got it, i'm sure you explained it before but I might have missed it.
>I'm afraid Tails is not slated to join this project at this time.
No big issue honestly, Tail's gimmick always felt like the lamest to me honestly.
Now MARIA on the other hand
Are you gonna kill Clove?
Can I get a short summary on this story? I haven't been paying attention this.
>These other characters with minor physics changes are a BONUS feature and are not a major selling point of the project.
Well it is going to be what draws me to it. I bought Forces fully aware of how much it was going to suck just because I want to play as Shadow. Once he has been added to this I am going to start paying a lot more attention too.
Whatever works, I guess! I'll do my best to make them fun while still remaining true to the core mechanics.
how come Sonic Forces doesn't get a cereal
Do you WANT me to kill her? The community via an 8 hour poll with 30ish people decided that Cassia would be healed/treated after being in crisis, but at a great cost. A great cost could mean anything.
Without doing a formal poll, just infomrlally here, should Clove be the great cost, should she die...
Or worse?
Blame Alex Kidd in Marketing.
He fucking sucks.
Worse than killing her? What is worse than killing her?
For a number of reasons.
But this ain't my personal circlejerk I clubhouse, so I won't blogpost about it. Just wanted at least one person to know.
Remember the whole "Eggman can have any of his soldiers paralyzed and shoved into lockers" thing? Do that
Crippled, be turned into a full robot with just a brain left
I hope life treats you well soon
Don't do it, losing anons is the worst.
I don't think Clove should be the great cost, that seems too easy, instead just completely destroy the relationship between the two for extra suffering.
does anyone have any comfy pictures of Sonic and friends doing mundane activities?
Not even a brain
A full robotic copy that has the same brain patterns that mimic her personality, and the only reason she's able to think coherently is because there's a flicky inside a good ol' fashioned Eggman Life Support unit that gives the necessary computational data a la a wetware cpu! Remove that, she's just a robotic shell. The real clove is deader than Elvis
Cope. Things will get better I just know it.
>you will never have a three foot tall busty batgirl shove her knockers in your face
I fucking give up
Making very quick progress on the animatic. Suggest some interesting stage ideas for a Sonic game, /sthg/, wanting to get some real work done on my dream game and I wanna make it special for you guys.
That's not Shadow.
Short, busty human girls are pretty sweet too.
Many things, read the comics, specially pre-252.
Well, Tassel Boy is no longer IN a locker. Last time we saw him, he was shipped by Maw to Red Outback Zone’s lab in Tralius to test out a new roboticizer. Wouldn’t you like to know what results were yielded from those tests?
Clove could be the cost, while at the same time,destroying family bonds. It’s possible to do both.
Like 2 or so weeks ago, I posted a concept that was actually well received. It happens after Archie’s New 252’s Shattered World Crisis and after the events of Sonic forces. Eggman is not in this. Is he dead? Is he in Null Space? Nobody knows. But a new threat is lurking and will rise, and our heroes must unite to neutralize that threat. Some characters that were never introduced to New 252. Here are just some of the faces in this project.
In: Cassia, Clove, Shard, Nephthys, Larry Lynx, Relic, Ben, Team Dark, Moss, Thunderbolt, and of course the main freedom fighters.
Out: St. John, Mammoth Mogul, MUH ECHIDNAS
New: THE Buddy from Sonic Forces, 1-2 side buddies, New leader of Squad Jackal (name to be determined, probably through community poll), Beignet (from Sonic Mars).
Community already decided that Cassia is in critical condition, but she will recover at a great cost.
Does Sonic have to be in them? I actually don't have much with him in a group for some reason.
just kill me now ;;
Large Shopping Mall zone
I actually have nothing
>all the Sonic characters at the Olympic games have to wear 10 Shadow limiters to make it close to fair
?
>Clear Stage 18 in 70 seconds
>1:09:55
This fucking game is making me scream
What clothes did you unlock?
Uh, a chain, the green sandals, some gloves, a purple doom helmet, maybe a bodysuit, I don't fuckin' rememver i'm too fucking hyper
Clove looks to outside of the Army and legions to find a fix for her sister, Thunderbolt discovers it while spying on her terminal and tells Cassia that Clove was lying and was planning to abandon her
...
...
Whatever you say, Orange Joe.
those have to be the lamest Stand Names I've ever seen.
Unfortunately, for reasons you will see later, that can’t happen. It’s a solid idea though!
Things to keep in mind and questions to ask.
1. Eggman is gone. Dead? Null Space? Seomplace elese? Nobody knows.
2. Thunderbolt worships Eggman. Without him, what would she do?
3. What happens to an army with no leader? Who takes charge? Who stays, and who leaves?
4. What happens to those caught in the middle?
Scrap Icefield
>Can take place after a previous zone similar to a flying battery or airship
>obstacles consist of debris and natural ice formations.
>springs and boxes are in odd places, having been scattered in the crash
Dynamite Sanctuary
>hideout full of explosives
>use bombs to propel to other places
>final section is a long bridge that's consyantlyt blowing up behind you as you run to strike a flying boss
Meteor Hill
>Night time Hill level
>shooting stars all over
>big craters that you can run down and get a ton of speed on
>mostly rocky terrain
Tropical Speedway
>daytime
>street city art direction
>buildings to climb
>race cars in the background
Dark blue leather gloves with white wrists, purple doom helmet with orange visor, a polo shirt with tie...I think,the silver chain for the shirt, green sandals, and... I don't remember the last thing but it didn't look cool
*sleeps*
There's a power struggle for control of the Empire, several factions (arctic, middle east) seek to break away completely while Thunderbolt tries to keep everything together by force
>Chao Garden will never return
>Chao Garden will never be released as a standalone game
>Not even in mobile game form
Reminder not to give Sonic Team a cent of your money until this feature returns.
>Reminder not to give Sonic Team a cent of your money until this garbage returns.
...now you’re catching on. Aiming at starting mid-December, and am re-reading the comics again just to make sure I get this right, but I hope you enjoy what I’ve got planned. And of course in certain points, I will keep reaching out for community input. I want to hear some good ideas.
Of all the things in the Adventure games you had to ask for the number one worst feature.
Do you have a tumblr/pastebin/DA where you will post this?
Reef Relic Zone
>Coral reef growing above-ground, intertwined with overgrown ruins
>Act 1 focuses more on the coral elements, like a giant coral forest that has grown other destroyed ancient ruins
>Act 2 is inside an ancient temple. Coral appears more sparsely inside.
>Boss happens in the heart of the temple, with a giant sea anemone in the background
Alpine Archipelago Zone
>Group of tropical islands covered in snow
>Act 1 has sonic start on the beach of one of the islands, with the snowfall only being light. For the rest of the act, sonic travels through the small islands and runs across the water between them, eventually reaching the largest island
>Act 2 starts on the largest island. A vetically oriented level, sonic travels up to the rocky peak of the island, as the snowfall becomes heavier
>Boss occurs on the peak of the island
Sonic Forces was intentionally designed to be "Boost to Win": twitter.com
Old fucking news buddy. Its in the OP

Keep in mind this will be an ongoing thing, and I’ll let y’all know when it starts. Also, I am no artist, so I caannot draw what these new to 252 and new characters look like. Perhaps that will be remedied in the future though. Thanks again for all the input and support.
Scourge and Finitevus gonna be in, right?
This sounds a lot like how life works in the real world
Anyone got the original source?
I tired to make a bored, casual wolf gal.
Knuckles will be the only echidna, so no Finitevus I’m afraid, we’re following 252. Hey, at least Shard and some others are back!
I keep getting asked about Scourge, and while I won’t say know, I will say maybe, but not anytime soon. The story has to develop for his introduction to make any sense, I mean he IS form Moebius, and opening him up opens up the problems of other Zones, and Zonic, and at that stage, you either are rehashing everything, or rewriting things so much that you might as well make another character out of it. Sadly, that’s the problem with Scourge, and why Fiona is much more likely, and likely sooner, than Scourge can be.
White fur and white gloves?
Fantastic suggestions, will write them down and see what I can do with them later. Made this in 2 hours, gonna clean things up later. Showing off the 4 zones I've made so far, it's gonna be about a minute and a half when I'm done.
You keep denying Tails because you want to have the other characters be only slightly different from Sonic... but "slightly different from Sonic" is Tails whole thing.
