Sonic: Super Deformed is a hack I am currently working on, and have been for a few years now (It was originally named Sonic 1: HD).
It started in 2006 as a Sonic 1 hack. I slowly worked on the engine and moved it over to Sonic 2, and from there it's been modified to a more custom version of the engine (still feels like a classic game though ).

first off, about what has been added, and what is planned:

What's New?

* Multiple Characters
* Super Forms for each character
* Sonic CD Spin Dash
* Jump dash (Sonic Only)
* Stomp Attack (Sonic only)
* Super Peelout (Sonic only)
* Homing attack
--------
these moves will be changed before the release, due to him feeling too much like Megamix's Shadow.
* Double Jump (Shadow Only)
* High speed Dash (Chaos Control- Shadow Only)
--------

* New level Palettes and Names
* New Sprites, in Chibi/Super Deformed style
* New art, including enemies
* Sonic 3 & Knuckles style end level poses <- was in S1 version, not yet in S2 version
* S1 Sound Driver/ With S3 DAC
* New Music (some ports too)
* Different music for each zone and act
* New Level art and Layouts (Summer Shoreline Zone, Torrent Tower Zone, Frosty Falls zone)
* Fire, Lightning and Bubble shields from Sonic 3, along with new, exclusive shields, such as the Leaf Shield!
* Attracting rings from Sonic 3.
* Hyper forms <- 90% completed
* Hitaxas' updated S2 engine.
* Ported Objects
* New Objects
* A new selection in the Options menu, allowing the player to chose their game style/moveset

What else is planned?

* Chaos Blast (Super Kill all- Super Shadow only)
* More players (Espio, Knuckles, and Cream..or Tails, who knows)
* New Special stages (level based)
* New Level art and Layouts for other levels
* A new selection in the Options menu, allowing the player to chose their game style/moveset
* New title screen
* New end sequence
* More unique features


Now for some screen shots of the most recent version:

Summer Shoreline Zone


Torrent Tower Zone


Unnamed Zone 1


Unnamed Zone 1's Background


Unnamed Zone 2


Characters:

Newer Knuckles and Shadow:


There is one more stage (Frosty Falls Zone). However, I cannot supply a screen shot at this moment, as the person doing the level art has not finished.

Credits go to:
Me, Irixion, Shobiz, Alriightyman.

* SOTI
* Varion Icaria

Suggestions about unamed zones: The first one should be named Revamped Robbery zone
*runs*
And the second one should be named Casino Carnival zone.
Other than that, great hack. Please dont add special moves for cream before I instert her to my hack >.>

[CarrascoZX0]

Finally! Sonic: Super Deformed is on SSRG! Good work so far!

[RatedRStarr]

Damn, that is some great work. I wish I could have posted this on retro but I'm pending membership. That is still great though and with all these characters and features planned wouldn't it be good to add like a versus where you race?

[Qjimbo]

I'm loving the artwork in this hack. I look forward to the release!

[hitaxas]

Thanks for the support.

I plan to release a demo around October 5th, so stay calm people. =P

ALSO:
I am looking for willing and trustworthy people to join this hack as a team.
You must have one of the following skills (and must be good at the skill):

Level art and layout editing
ASM (must know enough to make special features)
Sprite editing (could assist me in the new character sprites)

Team members will be reciving a demo of SSD before OCT.5th. =P

I can do all 3 things, altought I don't think I have enough knowledge for Sprites and Level Layouts. But ASM.
Just to say something to it. =P

[SonicVaan]

Haha! I'm learning the ASM engine. But adding a special feature? I don't know :/

[DalekSam]

Don't forget Hitaxas, I'm always around for music, ASM, and just the ordinary shit.

[Spanner]

Although you didn't ask, I could help you with music, since Irixion's away. I just feel that the music you currently have needs to be better.

[hitaxas]

Well, well. Music has been a slight issue, I know Irix's music was... lacking. I am open to suggestions and the such.

Edit: I will be posting VGZs of some of SSDs soundtest when I get home. Some of its brand new, some a bit old.

[Hanoch]

I call ASM and layouts. I am not that good at level art but layouts, I rock -shot-. I am ok at ASM. In fact, I am better than Selbi, Sam, vaan and SOTI together! -slayed with a blade-

Say what?! I think I did music for you pretty well! xD... Also for the team... I'm good with music! As you know already... I've done lots of songs for you! xD

[Irixion]

This now seems like "awesome hack but i need help with shit". Since Hitaxas and I had a 'falling out', he goes to look for someone else -._-. Good luck with everything.

I never said your work isn't credited. =P

So your not off the project, just in suspension since you don't have a connection on your PC.

EDIT: CarrascoZX0 has joined the team to handle music.
HOWEVER, I will accept music from just about anyone still.

EDIT2: The VGZs I mentioned are below...

Unnamed Zone 1 act 1

Unnamed Zone 1 act 2

One of many boss themes

TTZ act 1

TTZ act 2

Double post, but this a rather vaild update:



Yes, One of my planned features have been added, with some help from Hanoch, who pointed me to a few routines.

SSD Mode = Spindash, Peelout, Sonic Boost, Stomp Attack, (Hyper)/Jumpdash, Homing attack
S3K Mode = Spindash, Instashield, hyper jumpdash
S2 Mode = Spindash
S1 Mode = No special moves or super/hyper forms

Basically, you can choose how you play the game. For the ultimate challenge, S1 mode is available so that you have to get through every level without even a spindash.

That's cool. One small thing that bugs me, SSD Mode could be centered a little better. Other than that I like it.

This is awesome! But I don't think you'll need Sonic 1 Mode, since this mode has nothing special, and the people want special things. =P
