    Speaking of music, Puto once made an awesome version of that song, I'm trying to contact him right now to see if he still has it.

    oh god
    don't tell me your hack is infected with
    *intense close-up*
    BOOMITIS.

    Okay, stupid joke aside, I am...interested in this, to say the least. Looks similar to the bosses from Sonic Boom (the hack). Did you draw inspiration from that?

    Actually no, the real inspiration were my thoughts when I was trying to fall asleep (and suceed after almost a hour) :p I had in mind a big FIre Orbinaut with fireballs rotating around him. I'll use this idea in act 3 boss. And thanks for your opinion.

    your screenshots doesn't seem to be showing for me for some reason.

    Edit: strange. It seems to show just fine on my tablet but not on my PC. In any case now that I've seen it, not bad so far, though it looks a bit bland but I'm guessing this is something I'll have to wait for to see more.

    How does this new Sprite+Palette look? Just pay attention to Sonic here, by the way; the level design is earlygame stuff, the palette and looks for that should change rather soon.

    He looks terrified. Might be the tiny pupils and lack of a mouth.

    ​Yeah, a friend of mine mentioned that too. I need to fix that xD

    I didn't make the sprites, but I touched them up slightly so they'd work ingame and still look good.

    I also have to agree about the sprite looking a bit off. I would say maybe removing some of the shading by his pupils and make them a little bit longer. something like this [Using your screen as a reference, just edited a bit]

    also change some of the colors in some areas to match his basic palette. hope this helps

    JoenickROS, it's looking good! The only thing I've noticed is the foreground and background are similar colours, so the player may get disoriented (if you know what I mean by that). But, there is difference between seeing it vs playing it.

    It looks really good, though! Can't wait to be able to play the hack (at some point)! Should you keep it? I think so. But, it depends on what art style you want to make your hack (similar to the original, more cartoony, ect). If you want it to be similar to the original, then you should definitely keep it.

    Is that Lava Reef Zones background? The colors look all wrong, it looks like it might be conflicting with the foreground palettes. It looks badly mishaded and, as Lucas mentioned, the matching colors make things look bland and disorienting, as well. If there's a palette line that was only used by the old background, you might want to copy the original background palettes into that, then switch the palette line the background uses. If that isn't the case, you might need to fix things manually; I've had to undo background ports entirely when no free palette slot was available...

    It's still a cool idea, it could fit MCZ well once the colors are fixed.

    Whilst it isn't a Sonic hack, I've finished editing GWolf's stream of playing CrazySonic. Just rendering it now :3

    [​IMG]

    I'll be putting the video on YouTube and placing it on the CrazySonic thread (hopefully) tonight.

    ​Looking good! the only thing I would suggest, is either change it a little so he doesn't just go back and forth, or add a second phase when you've hit him a number of times.

    ​That looks pretty good! it fits quite well.

    I feel like waiting for the fire to burn out takes too long. Making the player wait unnecessarily prolongs the fight and wastes the player's time. It would be nice if Robotnik occasionally came out with fire so you have to look before you hit him. Other than that, it looks great!
