The insta-shield in advance 1 works differently, if you hit something with it you don't bounce off. In Sonic 3 it just extends Sonic's own hitbox.

Which fangame is it that unironically uses Metal Gear Rising's final boss theme in its own final boss? I know it's one of the ones by the BtS/AtS guy.

I love how weird CD's bosses are, how each one is a gimmick except for the (awful, yes) final boss which is a straight up fight. I wouldn't want all Sonic bosses to be like that, it only works because there's a standard to twist in the first place, but it's a neat way the game sets itself apart from the others.

Camera could use a little work, especially in zoom tubes. IMO they should really be viewed side-on. And going up stairs *sucks* cause you jerk up each step, it's a bit nauseating.

VikingofRock posted:I actually liked the gimmicks in Sandopolis Act 2. The ghosts/lights add a sense of tension to the level, and then the deliberately slow things like the moving blocks play off that. In Sandopolis Act 2 going slow will literally kill you--what's more sonic than that? Unless you just jump at the ghosts.

I think it's more of a proof of concept of 'yes Sonic can be fun in 3d without the scripting and boost pads and go-fast button'.

Doctor_Fruitbat posted:The top speed is way too fast, but it does seem very well thought out in how Sonic moves otherwise. It at least doesn't look like Sonic slides everywhere like in every fangame engine so far. I'll give it a try later. Doesn't seem to handle precision platforming all that well cause sonic slips around a little even at low speeds, also good luck getting onto one of the platforms that move up and down cause your first instinct is to use the shadows but they lie to you.

So I was playing Sonic 2 and it turns out there's one starfish robot in Metropolis that isn't inside a solid wall and you can kill it by jumping into it. I wouldn't have thought you could since they're basically the bombs from Sonic 1. Well that's my contribution.

MikeJF posted:Well, it's a bit of a sonic take on the ground pound, which got super popular in platformers after it was invented for a drat good reason. I don't think it is, despite the name there doesn't look to be much of a drop component to it, it's just a burst of speed when you land. Maybe I'm remembering wrong.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:Sonic 3&K drags like hell - the levels are huge and while the gimmicks change a lot, the level of challenge plateaus fairly early on so it can be pretty tedious. Sonic 2 is the sweet spot. They are doing that though? And it's not entirely modelled after MD per se, it's more of a hypothetical 2D Sonic on the Saturn.

Yorkshire Tea posted:So with Sonic 2, there's a map of almost every stage in my head. I don't know the entire layout, but for every stage until Oil Ocean I know where the "high" path is and what you need to do to get there. The levels are simple enough that I also know most of the enemy placement on the high paths meaning I can storm through a lot of the game with sufficient, but not unreasonable practice. And honestly, that's what I enjoy. I think it's because when you're playing well, it's obvious that you are because you're going through the level quickly and being rewarded with high ring counts. The thing about Sonic 3 that complicates this is that the 'right' way to play is really a bit more slow and explorey, so you can find enough chances to get the Emeralds. Look at Angel Island, you can have four emeralds by the end of the Zone, but other than the one that's handed to you at the start of Act 2, they're all on the bottom routes.

Rorac posted:That actually makes a lot of sense, although I have to make one disagreement with Marble Garden specifically. That level is large, but it's also somewhat special in that there isn't really a specific high and low path, just different paths that take you down different routes (separate from the sonic/knuckles specific routes), and which path is better is actually left up to the player. This is as opposed to the high path usually being the fastest or otherwise best one. I think this may have been a deliberate design choice. True but getting to emeralds in Sonic 2 is essentially part of the main gameplay loop - get rings, don't get hit, hit checkpoints. Sonic 3's big rings are a separate thing that you have to really go out of your way to concentrate on doing - and in a few places it does detract a bit from the level. Hydro City isn't awful, maybe a bit long and reuses the same set pieces a lot, but the main reason I don't like it is that I know there's at least three big rings and I can never find them all no matter how much I search. Just playing the level it's fast and fun, it even speeds you through the water sections like it's ashamed of them. Dabir fucked around with this message at 15:53 on Mar 1, 2017 |
