Hey ya'll, some of you know that myself and another goon have been making this freestyle rap rhythm game for the last few years. Today we have launched in Early Access on Steam! This has been a long, complicated year- between us both contracting covid this year (my partner on this had a fever for 45 days ) and being a small team, it's been so challenging getting to this point but what we've ended up with is really unique and really fun! I want to make a thread for it soon but I wanted to share it with everyone in my favorite games thread! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1250350/Rhyme_Storm/

Back in the before times whenever the release date for the Sonic movie (future Academy Award nominee) was announced, I made the perhaps ill-advised decision to play through Sonic Advance 1 is great! While the console games were doing their thing, this game and its successors are a homier continuation of the older 2D games, with vertically expansive stages allowing for multiple routes and the Chaos Emeralds lying hidden in optional special stages rather than featuring in the story. This time however, much like in the Game Gear games, each zone contains its own discrete special stage so you've got to do some serious hunting to find all seven and earn access to the true final boss (I only found two during my casual playthrough!). As was series tradition at that point, you can choose from multiple playable characters: Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and the real star, Amy Rose. The first three broadly play like they did in previous games but have received some new moves to better differentiate them. Everyone gets basic attacks performed while standing still, Sonic can grind on rails and briefly dash in mid-air, and Knuckles can now float in water (not that there's too much of it in this game). Amy, playable for the first time in traditional 2D Sonic, can't actually spin at all and instead relies on her hammer both to attack and move around, taking inspiration from her Adventure moveset but without the speed of cold molasses. There's a learning curve to using her, but I ended up having more fun playing as her than the other three, giant-stepping and hammer-jumping through levels. While the lack of spin makes her more vulnerable to regular enemies, the extra range from her hammer means Amy can tear bosses up. Also, Advance 1 has a bumpin soundtrack even by series standards. Couple of my faves are Secret Base Act 2 and Ice Mountain Act 1. Sonic Advance 2 is good! Level design-wise you can definitely see a move toward the speed-focused "just hold right" gameplay the portable Sonics (mostly developed by Dimps at this point) would become stigmatized for, epitomized by the introduction of a basic boost mode, but, well, I haven't gotten to too many of those games yet so here it feels fresh and cool. Each act even starts with your character getting jazzed up and sprinting out the gate from a track start block, which is a frankly rad idea. Many of the 3D games will have your character begin the level running in a kinda media res manner, but something about seeing Tails or Cream psyche themselves up first adds some fun flavor. Speaking of, Advance 2 adds a new, somewhat underused friend to the franchise, Cream the Rabbit and her chao Cheese. I didn't really have any opinions regarding her whatsoever before playing these GBA games but uh she owns?? She combines Tails' flight (which she does with her ears) with long range attacks via Cheese. Like you just stand there and say sic em and Cheese bops the nearest enemy on screen. This trivializes bosses lol, but that's fine because as forums friend sharrrk pointed out, the five characters track to five different soft difficulty modes: Cream is Very Easy, Tails is Easy (flight is busted), Sonic is Normal, Knuckles is Hard (climbing and gliding aside, he's got a noticeably lower jump and not as many exclusive routes as S3&K), and Amy is Very Hard. Amy's capabilities versus bosses have been dampened a bit because, just as the levels themselves are more speed-focused, almost every boss fight is now an autoscroller! This is something the series kinda sampled in earlier entries, particularly Mushroom Hill Act 2 and Death Egg Act 2, and is an idea I'd love to see more of. The constant running just feels very appropriate to Sonic, much moreso than standing around waiting for a ball to swing over your head. Unfortunately, a big downside to this game is the special stage. I can't actually comment on the stage itself because I never found any! Entering any special stages requires you to, in one go without losing any lives, find all seven Special Rings in a given act. Unlocking the true final boss requires just beating the game with all four starting characters and finding all seven emeralds with Sonic. Unlocking Amy, a secret character for some reason, requires going further beyond and finding all seven emeralds with all four characters. I'm unashamed to say I just downloaded a completed save file! Sonic Advance 3 is, interesting. I wasn't feeling too hot on it at first because wow it kicks things off with maybe the worst first Sonic level I can remember playing! Route 99 sucks. Just an absolute boatload of blind jumps, speed traps, and rude gotchas coupled with a tediously slow stage gimmick. Once you get into the level, at least, as Advance 3 adds in hub areas for each zone with some light exploration puzzles needed before you can play any act or boss. And they're just kinda, there, padding things out between actual instances of gameplay. I suspect they were intended to facilitate practice grounds for your team of choice but there are less obtrusive means of doing so. But anyway once you get past those hurdles Advance 3 does have some cool stuff to speak of, especially the aforementioned teams! Somewhat similarly to Knuckles Chaotix, you select two playable characters at a time, a primary and a secondary, with the secondary giving some kind of ability or buff to the primary. Sonic boosts his partner's top speed, Amy gives her partner a hammer, Cream lets her partner command Cheese themself. The team mechanic is easily the coolest element of Advance 3, culminating in exactly the team-up you'd expect, and also something I'd love to see more of in the future. While later levels are still subject to some blind traps and forks (reminiscent of the GG games), they're a considerable improvement over the beginning of the game, with Ocean Base and Toy Kingdom being my highlights. Advance 3 also, notably, continues the story from Sonic Battle. Sonic Battle is a weird game and honestly not one I'd recommend to folks who aren't diehard Sonic simps (and have therefore already played it years before me), but I ended up having a great time with it anyway. It's an arena fighter that also, surprisingly, kinda functions as the Sonic franchise's take on the deckbuilder genre that was so hoppin in the early 2000s. The game is divided into episodes where you rotate which character is taking care of a weird robot Sonic finds on the beach. A fighting robot, that learns new moves from That was a whole lot of words to get to the real point of this post, which is that I really like the aesthetic and spritework of the GBA Sonic Games. Because I've been stuck at home since March, I figured now was as good a time as any to learn how to extract and animate sprite-based stuff from games I like, so have some Sonic gifs in roughly the order made.
