xx Sonic 3 HD Alpha Release: Outline

March 31, 2012, 07:27:08 PM by Devinator
Tentative Release Date: Christmas 2013

I've decided how this new demo will play. I want it to be laid out like this:
  • Sonic 3 HD Team logo, Disclaimer
  • Title Screen
  • Level Select Screen
  • Angel Island Zone
  • Mushroom Hill Zone
  • Credits
All 3 characters should be playable. If we must leave one out, it will be Tails. The cutscenes in AIZ (except for the beginning of Act 1) and MHZ will run as normal. Therefore, it is crucial that we have Sonic's and Knuckles's artwork finished. At the end of AIZ (Act 2), Sonic will fall from the bridge, and then fall into MHZ. It works out because of the falling, and at the end of MHZ, after the "Act Clear", the screen will just fade, and the credits will roll.

On a side note, there are some unlockables I would like to include - such as a playable Knuckles. After Sonic clears the game once, then Knuckles should be unlocked. And maybe one or two other unlockables should be included, but I don't know which ones yet. I also know there will be a secret level to unlock, but anyway, give me some more ideas! :)

xx Art Direction

February 01, 2012, 05:55:18 PM by Devinator
Since everybody wants a final direction as to how things will be from now on, here it is:
  • All art will now be in 5x instead of 4x the resolution
  • We are working on the Title Screen, Angel Island Zone, Mushroom Hill Zone, some of the Data Select, and all 3 characters.
  • We're sticking with Winterhell's engine.
I hope this helps. I sincerely apologize if this project's direction hasn't been made clear on my part. If you have any more questions, please send me a message and/or email. Again, my apologies.

Also, here are the current staff positions:
  • Project Leader - Devinator
  • Artists - Corral Summer (Characters and Gimmicks), Super Sapphire (Backgrounds), Erbuka (Foregrounds), NightmareX (?)
  • Programmers - Winterhell (Lead), Gemster312 (Supporting)
  • Music - Devinator
Everybody else is Support for right now.
