Honestly it surprises me you didn't mention Sonic P-06 by ChaosX. It's a fan remake of Sonic 2006 on the Unity Engine made by ChaosX, currently with all of the Sonic and Shadow levels made, and is soon to have Silver's levels as well.

My favorite different-genre Sonic game is Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart. It was surprisingly addictive for a while with all the mods and lobbies it had and having hundreds of characters to play as (I mostly played P4 Aigis). I think my favorite thing about it is that it's a hack of a hack (a hack of Sonic Robo Blast 2 which is a hack of the Doom 2 Legacy Engine).

God this game was so creepy when i first saw it I dont think u talked about it in this video but i Really wouldve hoped u did since it probably gave me a few nightmares for al ittle while EDIT AGAIN: OMG AS SOON AS I SAID THAT THE SONIC DREAMS COLLECTION CAME UP THANK YOU FOR INCLUDING IT OMG I HATE THIS GAME BUT LOV EIT AT THE SAME TIME nice sonic.exe is on here could never forget that even if u wanted to also sonic freedom REALLY reminds me of when i played the sonic x game for the leap frog.

The one problem with Sonic fan games/ Hacks is that some people say “FANS BETTER THEN SEGA WITH GAMES” Which is honestly disrespectful. Even tho games like SA2 and now frontiers exist, people still focus on Games like Forces and 06. Stop looking at the past, I don’t wanna jinx it but sega is changing. It’s time to realize, sega can get things done.

33:05 Oh my god. HOLY CRAP. For *years* I've had this childhood memory of seeing an automatic Sonic demo running on a screen in a store window display, which looked like Sonic 1, but had scrolling text alongside it. I never saw it again afterward, and the store has long since closed. Ever since I remembered seeing that, I'd been wondering whether it had been some kind of long-lost prototype preview version, but I'm pretty sure this Amiga demo might be it! Thank you for finding this, and finally giving me closure on that memory.

Sonic Robo Blast 2 surely beats almost everything Sega has made tho. "This philosophy is luckily dying out because of Sonic omens" And that's a good thing? I mean Sonic Omen being bad is also detrimental to fangames in general because most fans actually cares about Sonic. Omen is just what someone who barely knows him think is good whereas games like Before/After the sequel are about fans who understood Sonic better than Sega does.

As someone who grew up during the early 2000s, Ultimate Flash Sonic was as good as it could get even in spite of its wonkiness and short length. I kind of envy the selection of high quality fan games that the newer generations have to choose from. Then again, I also grew up with the Gamecube port of Sonic Adventure 2, the Sonic Gems Collection and Sonic Advance 1, so maybe growing up during that period wasn't so bad.

@@ikagura I'm not saying that Mania is a bad game by any means, the level design and graphics make up for its lack of novelties, but I'm not a Time Attack guy, so I just did a slot for every character and then called it a day, coming back every 6 months or so to play a run as Sonic or Knux. Mania doesn't make me wanna come back after that, the game would have been plainly better if they added new characters with interesting twists to the basic gameplay, with levels designed around everyone, and also added general stuff to make the gameplay better, because they literally pulled all the way back to S3&K, throwing out all additions made in the Advance series, which are really good imo, and I'd like to know why you think otherwise. The boost mode, the tricks, Sonic's new moves, the ranking system, and most importantly, Amy from Adv1, which is the most fun character to play as in ANY Sonic game because of how you interact with stages in a completely unique way (like Knuckles in S3&K), they're all things that give the game depth, not like gliding over the level and trivializing the game as Ray, or stomping to cut all your momentum as Mighty, for some reason. I'd honestly play the Advance games over Mania any day if it wasn't for the fact that they're still confined to my Gameboy emulator :r
@ikagura
@ikagura Год назад
@@CableSpark872 The Advance series additions would've made the game too tricky. Classic Sonic is meant to be simple to understand (yet having strats to master such as jumping after a spindash or using the insta shield with a good timing). Having too many different gameplay style would've been detrimental to the game. Mania is supposed to be the ultimate celebration of Sonic's past so no Modern stuff from Advance. PS: I'd also say that Dimps' level design is inferior to the Genesis ones.

A recent development that has been under the radar in the fangame community is the increasing number of tabletop roleplaying games set in the Sonic universe. Over the past few years a number of, shall we say, "quirky" and simple homebrew games have been made by influencers for spins and giggles. But a number of fans have taken on the task of translating Sonic to the ttrpg medium in earnest, including yours truly, resulting in a few up and comers offering distinct yet fleshed out experiences. I expect word of mouth on these projects will start to take off over the next few years, but you might say we're still..."Underground" _guitar riff_ 🎸

The Sonic 1 Beta Hoax is a good "fan game" to mention, as it's potentially the very first Sonic romhack. In short, it got put together by Cyan Helkaraxe in 1999 and passed off as a potential beta of Sonic 1 in order to drum up more interest in the game, likely in light of the increasing attention on Sonic Adventure. The Sonic Retro page has more interesting information on the subject as well.

I'd like to bring up a fangame from 2010 called Eggman Hates Furries. It's an insane boss rush game absolutely packed with spectacle that was honestly pretty impressive for the time and I enjoyed it a lot as a kid, even if I absolutely sucked at it back in the day. I should really revisit it one of these days!

One obscure fangame I'm sort of fond of is Eggman Hates Furries. It's essentially a boss rush, putting you against a bunch of fairly creative bosses. It has the best kind of Sonic boss design, where getting good at the game helps you find more and more opportunities to damage the boss!

I've been following the Sonic Hacking Contest ever since its beginning. Year after year, you get to see some amazing stuff. Same for the SAGE Expo Entries. One I hope to see being made (that is, if it'll ever be made...) is for Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Basically, having the characters switched to others (Sonic - Blaze, Tails - Marine, Knuckles - Shade, Robotnik - Nega Eggman) and different level layouts, music and such. I'm no hacking content creator, but if I was, I'd surely make something like it. It's just an idea/suggestion I'd love to see being made. Hopefully in future Sonic Hacking Contests.

I highly recommend checking out ScaleyFoxy 's RU-vid channel. H e hasas a GIANT collection of 90's and early 2000's fangames, with reviews in the videos and a website to download them. I first found out about it when I stumbled upon my own titles that I made back in the early 00's, including a game I made when I was 12 for SAGE 2003 (Sonic Last Strike and Heart of The Hedgehog if you wanna play cringe). The guy is so dedicated, found versions of games I totally forgot I even made!

One particular fan hack I enjoy is Sonic Delta Reloaded by Esrael. An evolution of their previous Sonic 2 Delta project, it's a hack that combines the three games on Genesis/Mega Drive into one single game, allowing you to play from Green Hill Zone act 1 all the way through seamlessly to the Doomsday Zone (adding flowing transitions between the different acts of zones in Sonic 1 and 2 to make them like Sonic 3&K's). It also includes representations of the cut zones from Sonic 2, as well as a myriad of gameplay options and music tracks from the various prototypes that have surfaced over the years. Definitely worth checking out.

I think it's sad you never mentioned "Sonic Boom", one of the earliest, if not THE earliest Klik And Play-made fan games out there. Or "Tails and the Quest for 100 Rings", probably the first game that used Sonic SatAM for its story.

I'm tired of people dumping on Sonic Xtreme. A game that's was not even finished and people keep saying it's bad. It was a prototype. Besides, no, it doesn't look worse than Mario 64 (visually at least). Mario 64 also was very simplistic in terms of layout, but people like to have their nostalgia googles on all the time.

There's a hack of, I think, Sonic 1 I remember enjoying called The S Factor. I don't recall the plot, or if there even was one, but you played as Sonia the Hedgehog from Sonic Underground, I believe she was a strength based character that was able to punch through walls like Knuckles but unlike him had a double jump instead of a glide, and Silver the Hedgehog who had a hover and could even pick up and throw Badniks using telekinesis. You could also unlock Scourge the Hedgehog but I believe gameplay wise he was just a Sonic clone, but that's fitting for him. I have no idea if it was ever actually finished or just abandoned at some point.

Technically,Sonic X-treme was gonna be somewhat of a 3d game with a 2D perspective that you can move to and away from the camera,kinda like crash bandicoot,and it would’ve still followed the same linear 2D sonic gameplay,if it released,I think it would’ve been received well,not praised,but well enough that we keep this same formula,but switching up things here and their

I am enjoying the video so far, I’m at about 16:10, and man the frame rates for the gameplay showcases is really hard to watch. I’m not sure if it continues like this for the rest of the video, but I figured I’d mention it. Also I thought it was RU-vid messing up but the scrolling background on the sides on 4:3 gameplay is still smooth, so I’m assuming it’s the video itself.

Sonic Utopia is still the best proof of concept for an open world sonic game. They tried that in Frontiers but without the much better visual style based on classic Sonic. I still like the Sonic adventure 2 gameplay the best for 3D Sonic and think boost was the worst thing to happen to Sonic. 2D Sonic 16bit style is perfect. I really want more mania.

A 3d fangame I'd like to reccomend is Sonic World DX. It is an older one, but it is still being worked on (in fact, the latest update was around a couple days ago to a week ago). Most of the levels are zones from other sonic games, but their level designs aren't the exact same, and there are three original zones. There's also a very large roster of playable characters, ranging from ones you'd expect such as Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Shadow, to ones you probably wouldn't such as Infinite, Jet, and a Shadow Android.

Not to get on too much of a soapbox here, but to add to something another commenter said about people giving overpraise to fan games, I've encountered the opposite too where people I know outright dismiss Sonic fan games as terrible or a joke, simply because they weren't developed officially by Sega. There's this weird prejudice with some gamers where they feel if it wasn't developed in house officially it cannot be good. Which is truly ridiculous in my opinion. While I don't feel I've ever played a fan game as good as the classic 2D Sonics, in terms of level design, boss design etc. I have played fan games that I equally enjoyed as much and felt were very close to that level of efficiency in design, as the margin of the level of creativity put into them was thin in comparison (not vast seas apart in quality) to the older games even if the classics are more technically sound and more fully realized in conception. On a side note, one of my acquaintances that praised Sonic Mania was one of the same people that bashed Sonic fan games. I thoroughly enjoyed explaining to him that some of the devs were the same people that created fan games he dismissed so arrogantly and that they had been hired by Sega because of their track record in the fan game community.

When fans do most of the games better than you do.... Ah, Sega, still behind. (Well, they did well enough with Frontiers, but they made a lot of screw-ups between it and the last sega-made sonic game!)

One thing i strongly believe is that the Sonic fanbase is one of the strongest in the entire industry, the seer amount of amazing stuff they createm, not just fangames is mind blowing, and of course part of it it's thanks to SEGA, for allowing people to just create their fangames, unlike Nintendo with Mario, that they threw the dogs to you, even if the game is a non profit project.
@MisterVercetti
@MisterVercetti Год назад
SEGA's fairly liberal towards the existence of fangames because it knows that they've basically been the only thing keeping the franchise alive throughout most of its existence. If all we had to tide us over was Sonic Team's regularly underwhelming fare, the Sonic series would have probably died with '06.

I was there, in SFGHQ in the early 2000s. There was no sonic worlds so everyone had to make their own engine by hand. I made Sonic Frenzy Adventure, one of the contestants to the best Sonic Fangame of SAGE 2005. It was extremely ambitious and I never managed to finish it.... although, thanks to my extra time due to the pandemic I decided to take a look at it and woah, I had like 20 levels done. So I compiled it as a complete game in the direction of Sonic 2, a succession of levels with barely any narrative, dropped unused characters, unfinished levels and it's there for download if anyone wants to see it.

Johnny, my biggest problem with Sonic Utopia doesn’t have anything to do with the game itself, it’s the creator. The Great Lange as he’s known on Twitter pretty much embodies what I hate about Sonic fans on Twitter. With his overly long thread why he claims the 2D games are better and the Boost games don’t qualify as real Sonic. He calls people out who try to voice their liking of the series today and focuses on “toxic positivity” rather than specifically calling out toxic negativity. It’s a fine demo, but the creator is such a grump on Twitter.

Sonic fan games have spawned some pretty mixed emotions out of me. On one hand, yes many of these games that people have made are awesome, but on the other hand, people often use these games as a way to criticize and tear apart Sega and Sonic Team, when they too have worked so hard to make Sonic games a reality. Many of the the creators of the games from what I gathered fall into that pool of bad faith conversion about games post-Adventure 2, really ripping into many titles, some of them didn’t even give Frontiers a chance. People will try to paint Sega and Sonic Team as some faceless hacks that don’t know what they’re doing, but they care about Sonic so much and would never intentionally do anything to make anyone angry. I love the Sonic the Hedgehog series with all my heart, and think many of these fan games are awesome, but I DO NOT condone any use them in bad faith arguments or to attempt to give the fans of Sonic games from the late 2000s and early 2010s the middle finger. We deserve a healthy, safe environment where can all express our love of something without putting anyone down for liking something or to use fan games in the same way that kids like to say, “I did this better than you can!”. This shouldn’t be a superiority contest here, it should be to express how much Sonic means to us.

Hay algo que no me gusta de estos fangames y es que la mayoría de ellos son copia y pega de los juegos oficiales, haciendo que sean poco originales y casi no presente nada innovador y/o llamativo. Quiero un fangame que sea realmente fresco y original y que sea algo nunca antes visto en la franquicia de Sonic. Quisiera un juego que fuera al estilo de Sonic Mania, pero en lugar de ser protagonizado por Sonic y sus amigos como siempre, que sea protagonizado por los personajes femeninos que sean mas icónicos, relevantes y/o mas queridos en el fandom. No solamente de los videojuegos, sino también de las series y comics. Entre estos personajes se encuentran Sally, Amy, Cosmo, Tekno, Tiara, Sonia y Perci (lo siento Sticks). Cada personaje deber ser único y distinto, teniendo su propio estilo de juego y mecánicas, siendo mas complejo que lo visto en los juegos de Genesis y Mania. Un ejemplo seria que Cosmo tuviera una barra de mana que se gasta cada vez que usa sus poderes, ya que esta versión de Cosmo depende de su magia, al contrario que lo visto en Sonic X. Si llega a abusar mucho de sus poderes, llega un momento en que su barra de mana se bloquea al vaciarse por completo, siendo incapaz de utilizar sus poderes, quedándose casi indefensa, teniendo que esperar un momento hasta que su barra de mana se llene por completo para volver a utilizar sus poderes. Y como arma llevaría un bastón al tratarse de una maga ¿Pues como se va a defender ella si se queda sin poderes temporalmente? Sobre los niveles, no quiero que se limiten a Zonas inspiradas en los videojuegos, también quiero Zonas basadas en las localizaciones vistas en las series y comics e incluso Zonas que traten de expandir la historia y lore de cada uno de los universos de aquellas adaptaciones. Me imagino un nivel ambientado en el mundo natal de Cosmo, siendo un mundo fantástico en donde domina la Espada y la Magia, habitado por criaturas típicas de un mundo de fantasía como Hadas, Dragones, Duendes etc. Básicamente el típico mundo de fantasía sacado de algún RPG. Pero al pasar por los Actos, se muestra la otra cara del mundo, siendo un mundo oscuro y lleno de decadencia y que poco a poco la magia va desapareciendo para ser sustituida por tecnología, para que en el Acto 3, termines infiltrándote en la base de los Metarex. Siendo estos el objetivo principal de Cosmo de acabar con estos seres cibernéticos para así salvar su mundo de la contaminación y polución que esta causando los Metarex y su tecnología. Y quiero que este juego sea tratado como una carta de amor, hacia todas la adaptaciones que tuvo Sonic con el pasar de los años y que también marcaron la infancia de muchas personas, ya que conocieron a Sonic gracias a las múltiples series, comics y libros que tuvo el erizo azul. De no haber sido por estas adaptaciones y que Sonic se hubiese estancado únicamente en los videojuegos, la franquicia hubiera pasado a una mas de nicho.
