Sonic The Hedgehog Distortion

So for those who played Sonic North Island before SHC '15 you may have noticed that the story was vastly different from the SHC '15 release. Also it looked like I put more effort into being more original.

After thinking about how much has changed for the SHC '15 release I decided i'm going to take the idea of SHC '15 SNI (Sonic North Island) and turn it into Sonic The Hedgehog Distortion and have SNI to return back to it's root ideas. Sorry that i'm rambling on time to actually show off and talk about what this hack entails.

I awoken in an unfamiliar place.
"wah...?"
"Where am I?"
Getting up I looked at my surroundings.
"This is all too weird."
What I saw happened to be Green Hill Zone but it's different.
"I heard rumors of a place like this."
"It's a magical land that can take the memories of who roams it and change into places that seem familiar... But different."

The idea is for me to create zones based on other video games, for example Mario or even Pacman.

oh and for those who think this is another "OMGERD IT'S A EMPTY THREAD"

Here's some meat:


Zone 1: Super Mario World
Zone 2: Michael Jackson's Moonwalker
Zone 3: Megaman (maybe?)
Zone 4: ???
Zone 5: Kirby 64 Shiver Star stage 4 (That really depressing and creepy level, it's really great and I recommend you check it out. Also Shiver Star is world 5 see what I did there?)
Zone 6: ???
More Zones maybe?
Special Stage: Pacman (maybe?)

While I do have ideas for what zones I can do (as seen above), I want to know what you would like to see represented.

 

I would love to see Cutman's stage from Mega Man or Heat man's stage from Mega Man 2. Anyway I really like that SMW art.

 

I would like to see the bone zone.

 

A level based off of Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat artwork and characters could be funny. Just throwing it out there.

 

As I said before. It would be interesting for you to work with the Michael Jackson's Moonwalker level artwork and make a Sonic stage out of that.

 

So far I got this:

Zone 1: Super Mario World
Zone 2: Michael Jackson's Moonwalker
Zone 3: Megaman (maybe?)
Zone 4: ???
Zone 5: Kirby 64 Shiver Star stage 4 (That really depressing and creepy level, it's really great and I recommend you check it out. Also Shiver Star is world 5 see what I did there?)
Zone 6: ???
More Zones maybe?
Special Stage: Pacman (maybe?)

 

Zone 6: 666 - deal with Satan, who is responsible for this mess. In all seriousness I recommended Otherworld from Silent Hill 1 - rust, metal and scary traps. Scrap Brain Zone = Zone 6 - Metal, scary level design... If you mix it, that should be the ultimate showdown.

 

LordXernom just gave me an idea. How about a Ghost 'n Goblins style stage? Complete with the demon enemy as the boss.

 

I am kinda leaning more towards Ghost 'n Goblins then any other. But I would love to see Castlevania aswell.

 

hey, what about Sparkster: Rocket Knight Adventures 2? I really think would be interesting to see Sonic in one of stages of that game. I guess see one of Megaman X 1-3 stages, would be nice too.

 

Maybe, just maybe, an area from LOZ2: Adventure of Link. Maybe Death Mountain could be the final zone?

 

Due note that these are going to be inspired by these games not direct 1:1 remake of the original levels. They are going to have plenty of slopes.

Sorry Lordxernon i'm not familiar with silent hill.

I don't plan on doing sparkster but i'll think about Megaman X

Also Zelda II why didn't I think of that? I just beaten it a few weeks ago...

 

Zone 4 should be based on either Rapture from Bioshock or Columbia from Bioshock Infinite.

 

This is a very exciting idea. Just looking at the screenshot makes me want to play.

Some suggestions for worlds would be;
Rollercoaster Tycoon (Ride design is up to you)
Final Fantasy 7 (Possibly based on the Gold Saucer park?)
Pokemon
Splattoon
Jet Set Radio

For the Final Zone, I'd suggest an original stage where the being responsible for this resides.

Just wondering, will you be excluding Sonic stages to focus on Sonic going through other franchises' worlds?

 

Dude, if you want a Rollercoaster Tycoon level, play White Park

Although I do honestly think a Rollercoaster Tycoon level would be pretty fun to see. As for what I want to see done, I think a level based on Mine Cart Carnage from Donkey Kong Country would be pretty neat.

 

Looks pretty interesting. I'd play it.
I'm just gonna... leave a little recommendation.
Cave Story.

I bet so many people are going to start thinking 'The fuck is that?'

 

I could see that work. However I would love to see Castlevania 4 or Bloodlines or maybe even Symphony of the night for this?
