Sonic 1 Somari

Basically, this hack is an attempt to recreate Mario levels on the Sonic engine (modified a bit, of course). So far World 1-1 is done, and it even features breakable bricks and ? Blocks!

First Release, doesn't have All-Stars tileset or brick breaking


Credits go to Puto for the music, and for helping me with some object variable stuff. All coding was done by me though =P


No, I'm not actually adding in Mario. That's gay.

 

I can't say this will be an amazing hack, although the idea is somewhat unique. When I saw the name Sonic 1 Somari I thought it was going to be a 16-bit version the original Somari lol. Anyway, I wish you good luck on this project. It looks good.

 

This video was delayed because of some bizarre mappings issues (I made a different mappings set for the underground blocks, but the underground brick had the wrong palette even though it still loaded), which I "fixed" by replacing it with a much more efficient way (just changing an SST byte depending on the value loaded from the Level Type Index).


Also, here's Demo 2. All this has is World 1-1 and 1-2.

 

I think this is a really neat idea, similar to the Wii in its originality. I think that if you could make the ? bricks turn into the blank ones after hitting them then it would be a lot more like it. I can't believe I actually tried to use the pipe shortcut though. That would be a hacking marvel if you could pull it off. However, if Thunderspeed can do Time Travel by loading a new pallete, couldn't you make it so that it goes to a seperate level that is just a bonus stage but wth the pipes replacing the Star Poles?

 

This is pritty good! I can't wait to see how you impliment the boss.

 

Nice hack. You did the levels very well!


It would be fun if you could make Mario as the final boss in the game :lol:


(Yes, i know that you said you dont add Mario.)

 

Fucking win!

 

He said that mario is gay, so he deserve to die!


Thats not bad idea to add him. but its your choice. :lol:

 

You should try making all the objects bigger because Sonic seems to big compared to the objects.

 

He's bigger because Sonic pwns mario's levels any day :blink:

 

yep, but think about that clumsy mario moving in sonic games.

 

If mario tried that loop, he'd die

 

yes i know that, but i mean that mario whit all what he can do"whit mario motor" but sonic levels. In that game, mario can do all same things as sonic.

 

Except jump while rolling.

 

Let me redefine.


Open a Somari ROM in a NES emulator of choice, go to Green Hill My ears hurt Zone and spindash, you cannot jump while rolling at all.

 

Even so, lets respect Mario. Plumber training is harder, than upper secondary school, your scool report need to be better.


But Sonic is still best cuz he can jump while rolling, and whitout training!

 

Yeah, I thought that's what you had meant, I just had to post that since what you said could've gone 2 ways.


Edit:No clue why those effed up...

 

Yeah! I can't wait for Mario to try that loop & fall off at the top, thus braking his skull.
