Description
I'm thinking on learning how to make hacks.In 5 years, when I've finally learned it, I'll start a fangame idea I've had for a long while: Sonic Stars. Sort of a what-if- what if SEGA had released a spin-off Sonic for the 32xCD?
Ideally it'd be a trilogy- Sonic Stars for the 32XCD, Sonic Stars Again for the Saturn, and Sonic Stars Third Strike for the Dreamcast. But people say to me the Saturn sucks too much for this to be feasible, so eh.
Also based on a design made in Sonic Retro by Sonic Warrior TJ, mainly on the having more spines, the eye colour, and the smile.
Sonic belongs to SEGA.

Found a thread about the game and it stopped at sprites.
what happened?

Where the devil would you find a thread about it
regardless, don't have enough time to work on it, basically. I've got a lot more stuff done on paper, but not really worth the scanning.

I really like this redesign concept, would you mind if I tried it out myself?

Go ahead, I should've remade this piece some time ago anyway. Have fun and link back plz.

I like the art style. Although the spines on the head are off a bit. There usually two on each side of the head as well as two spines in the middle. Nevertheless, great job!
I heard from the Sonic Retro Admin, Tweaker that fellow member Chimpo is making a 32X CD version of Sonic 4 by modifying Sonic 2.
I think it could turn into a very good idea, especially for the Saturn. People only say the Saturn sucks because 2D games were prevented from being released in America. The Saturn is a 2D powerhouse.

I added the extra spines intentionally, actually. Tried to give him a more feral look.
And yes, Chimpo is adapting Sonic 4 to the 32x CD. I think it'll be a nice result in the end
The reason people tell me not to use Saturn is simply because it is too absurdely hard to program for, you know? It doesn't pay off.

Wow, people are just thinking the same way I do, or maybe its the other way around. I want to make a game that I've always wanted. I'll add in new features and attacks.
Great job on the drawing, he looks crazy! I like the sharp teeth and crazy quills!What inspired you to draw this particular style?

A redesign made in Sonic Retro by Sonic Warrior TJ, plus the late part of the 1990ies- the idea is to make a hack that would have been released in around 1996, so Sonic looks a bit more extreme and anime without still going to the graffitied style of Adventure.
[link] This was the Redesign.
As for making a game I've always wanted, I personally have been enjoying the recent games; my idea is more because I want a game that feels more like Sonic CD and Sonic Advance than Sonic Rush (with which I have no problem) or Sonic 4 (with which I do have a problem)

He looks so devilishly handsome. Lessee, five years... I'll be 23, so I'll still be playing videogames. I look forward to seeing what you have planned!

Great picture man ^^
I'm also making a fangame (Not a hack , gonna be either coded in GML or C++ both similar). Yours sounds interesting any info I can get on this. I'm intrigued
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm still thinking concepts, though I got Sonic's gameplay all planned out already. I'll eventually upload a document with the gameplay of the characters.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah cool. I do the same. Think of concepts and the make the game. I'm trying to keep it retro with just sonic , tails ,knuckles , sonic CD amy(briefly) and robotnik.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Playable characters I've thought of are Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, and Fang. What I'm doing is basing myself on Sonic Advance for moveset ideas, but also on Sonic Megamix, Sonic Brother Trouble, The S Factor and Amy in Sonic 1, various fanhacks that show the limits and potentials of new character movesets on the Mega Drive, with characters like Shadow, Silver, Amy, etc. adapted to Sonic 1 and 2.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That sounds good. Nice ideas , I hope you implement them well ^^
Sonics move set in my game has wall jumps , peel-out and spindash. Knuckles and Tails remain the same. Amy isn't playable but she's features. I may have nack/fang pop up as an enemy once ina while but I want to keep new characters out.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I only figured out Sonic and Fang's moveset yet, but I'm aiming for a more Sonic CD feel- more emphasis on exploration than sped. I'll see how it goes
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah good xD
I'm trying to implement both. Sonic's level's are mainly based on speed , Tails are on speed/exploration and Knuckles are based on exploration.
While not my fave sonic game I tihnk sonic CD was the best of the 2-D era.

The way I imagine it, the levels will be filled with obstacles and pathways, so I gave Sonic moves like the wall-jump, the peel-out, air dash and if with the fire shield the boost so he can keep a fast platforming game. Tails plays as a slower Sonic with more exploration in the means of flight. Knuckles is pure exploration mixed with beat-em-up: hovering, punching, etc. I'd like to give him the DRILL ability from Colours but I think that's too much for a hack. Hey, maybe you could use it for your game? 
There, that's all
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Great ideas xD I like nack's spring bounce and gun idea!
I'm trying to keep my moveset's retro (with the exception of walljump) but you have some nice ideas ^^
Nack will most likely pop up as an enemy , or maybe even in the special zone trying endless to collect the emeralds. God a sonic 2 styles special zone with nack trying to get the rings too would be ace ^^

I've got the moves finally all planned, I'll upload them soon enough
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah cool ^^
Had some ideas for my game with special stages and all. Good luck with your game. I'm thoroughly intrigued and itereste by it xD

How's learning to hack going along? I imagine it must be hard.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm not going there yet. I'm planning as much as possible first, so I can know exactly what I'll be aiming at when learning the hack.
Though more and more I'm consdering just try to make it a fangame with Sonic Worlds or something. More freedom, I suppose.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm making mine with a heavily modded game maker engine. It's going okay atm. I'm rogramming Nack's appearances and what-not now. Sonic worlds is for MMF2 right?
The only down side to using a fan-engine is that the physics won't be 100% perfect , so you'll always get stupid people complaining , but if your like me and can settle for somthing as close as an engine I don't see any reason not to.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, MMF2. But I think it wasn't finished, dunno.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The engine is relatively finished. It has a lot of gimmicks that aren't in game maker engines (But can be easily implemented).
Do you have a story for your game yet?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, yeah. Are you a member at Sonic Retro or Sonic Stadium? I can link you the thread.

Sonic Retro , they haven't accepted me xD

As in, haven't accepted you YET or haven't accepted you at all?

I'm a pending member. So I can comment but after 20 I have to wait for conformation xD

Have you been waiting for long?

About a week I put a thread up but meh. You usually have to use your 20 posts so they know your not a troll or idiot , but the only ones I want to I can't.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I know that, I also went through that process
If it was a week or so then eh, just go posting as normal, try not to be an idiot, and they'll approve you.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Aha , i'm not much of an idiot. I'll only post serious things. Then get gradually more laidback as im accepted
Anyway the thread? ^^

Sorry, the link that brought you to this page seems to be out of date or broken. :l

Can you access the Creative Works forum? If so, it's in there- Sonic Stars. If not, you'll have to wait to be approve first.

So this Sonic Stars thing would p.much be to Sonic what Paper Mario is to Mario?
It's really nice KKM,I love the shading style,it reminds me of the classic covers but kinda cell shaded at the same time,wich makes it awesome
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nah, the Stars are thematic- a Star-shaped ship falls in Earth, Robotnik uses it's energy for his plan. It would revolve around stars and space and etc., but not so much in a Colours sense- think more Ristar. For gameplay, I'll give more info later, but think more like Sonic Advance (Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, each with many unique abilities) mixed with CD (large exploration levels, crazy geometrical design, but no time travel) Sonic 3 and Knuckles (huge levels) and a dash of Sonic Heroes (lots of level gimmicks).
I'll post more things as it comes, this is all thought out to work as a feasible hack.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah,I see.But what I meant was that it's like a spin off series with different designs etc,that are in a dfferent canon to the main games.
Like Paper Mario is to Mario,Battle Network is to RM,etc
Not the RPG part,but the spinoff "AU" part
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, ok xD
I thought that by the style you thought it would actually be like Paper Mario xD
