Nice, this looks great.

I kinda liked the sprite-based approach of the first one but this looks great as well!

And this one looks kinda like Sonic 2, in contrary to the first one, which reminded me of Sonic 1 somehow.

Maybe they`ll do it like this: S4:E1=S1 / S4:E2=S2 / S4:E3=S3; so that Episode 3 would be kinda similar to Sonic 3. So in the end Sonic 4 could be in itself a modernized trilogy, like Sonic 1-3K were :P

Hopefully this time it'll play like the older Sonics rather than Sonic Rush. I did like Episode 1 but I was expecting something more akin to the older games.

Now that's more like it. But let's see if the gameplay holds up in a gameplay video.

Also, I wonder what physics engine it runs on? I'm hoping that they may have something based on the Sonic Generations engine at least, that already had an equippable homing attack for Classic Sonic.

looks like a Sonic game should... no 3D bullshit
hope the physics gets fixed for this episode

Colors was fantastic though, it should be what all 3D sonic games strive to be now. I can't make a judgement of Sonic Generations on any console as I've only played it on the 3DS (which is a pretty great modern 2.5D sonic game), but I believe it plays similar to Colors in the 3D stages.

Must say, if they never released another Sonic game I'd barely notice. I still try the new ones, but they are just so average...

I liked episode 1 so 2 will be just as good if even better

This game is a perfect example of a Sonic game created with respect, dignity, and near perfection to the Genesis games.

sonic 4 episode 1 was a remake of 2, and from the looks of the screensahots (ice cap zone) this will have stages remixed from sonic 3.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying
