One of my least-liked design elements of suburban design is this inaccessible landing I see in foyers.
Any creative solutions for "staging" it out there?
Chris Chan is found guilty then once the judge hits the gavel the room will start shaking and Mewtwo will bust into court to take Chris away.
Wormholes will start opening around the world and fictional characters will come out of them. The beginning of the dimensional merge.
I cannot get over how fucking good the gameplay physics & feel are😭💙!
Also here’s some B-roll I got with just sound effects, no music, so pick a track u think goes with this LOL
I told you we've been cooking.
Introducing Sonic Superstars Tune-Up, a mod we're making that replaces the lower-quality tracks in the game with our own remixes of the tracks.
Here's Press Factory Act 1.

Press Factory could use a little tune-up methinks.

This is the first public remix for Sonic Superstars Tune-Up: A Superstars mod enhancing the OST of the game. Enjoy!
Okay so I'm like 99% sure I figured out why you can't get high bounces off of enemies in Sonic Superstars.
I am in shambles right now I cannot believe this.
Example of what I mean in the video, explanation in this thread.
No you can't draw Sonic either. You can't interact with anything that has Sonic and co. on it.
You CAN play Smash Bros. but you can't play as Sonic or on Green Hill Zone.
You CAN go to a Sonic drive-in restaurant but you can't order a chili dog.
I never trust what high-profile Sonic content creators have to say about game quality.
A lot of them are (or are trying to be) buddies with the Sonic marketing team. They're only going to hype up the good parts, otherwise they risk severing those connections.
The Sonic fanbase unanimously agreeing on something is less common than a solar eclipse and it just happened.
Nobody on earth wants Sonic Generations to be remastered. Every archetype and sub-archetype of Sonic fan fully understands it's a net negative.
All of you are crybabies and should take a break from the internet.
You all think someone's hard work should be completely tossed aside because they threw a little shade at a multimillion dollar company.
Day 1 download for me. DO NOT cancel this game, man, it looks incredible!
Working on a V2 of my Golden Capital remix for Sonic Superstars Tune-Up.
Testing it in game the difference it makes in the level's atmosphere and even pacing is huge.
Good video game music is a necessity, not a bonus.
Especially for Sonic since the games are built to put you in sort of a flow state, you play much better with music that gets you pumped.
Sand Sanctuary is a mid level, but it bops so hard it feels like I'm playing a good one.
This is not why people have a problem with Amy.
The problem is that her moveset does nothing to mix up gameplay, which is the entire point of having separate characters in a single-player game.
You can't hype up a new character only to have them be a nerfed version of another.
1st, people seem to have a problem with Amy not having a move set like in the Advance games. The classic games DO NOT play like the advance games. In Advance you had multiple buttons doing multiple moves. The classic games all play with 1 button. Same with Tails & Knuckles.
Sonic Frontiers' marketing was a wake up call. We were planning on showing Hysteria gameplay soon. But now that's gonna wait. A long time.
We're not drip feeding, we're waiting until we have a bomb to drop. I'm sorry if this is disappointing, but it's what needs to be done.
For any future game devs out there, please do not announce your debut indie is randomly dropping today in the middle of a Nintendo Direct.
Probably a really bad idea that will cost you tons of sales.
I am so glad this guy won because years ago he went unhinged on the game awards and went "I MADE THE BEST FUCKING GAME YOU'RE EVER GONNA PLAY" and now years later his confidence pays off. What an inspiration.
Now you also might have noticed when you bounce off a badnik in Sonic Superstars, you get your jump ability back.
That's right, THEY ACCIDENTALLY FORCED YOU INTO A JUMP WHEN YOU DESTROY A BADNIK.
I know this because this exact thing happened in Hysteria when I implemented it.
In Sonic Mania, if you hold jump, your bounce height is reflected off your fall speed. The faster you fall, the higher you bounce.
Notice how in Superstars no matter how high you fall from, your bounce will never exceed the default max jump height.
It's not Jun Senoue's fault the Sonic Superstars OST is like this. He's a great musician but he specializes in a completely different genre.
It's Sonic Team's fault because nobody with common sense would ask Taylor Swift to make death metal.
This HAD to be an accident. There's no way these guys who changed nothing about the characters came up with this awesome QoL feature: Get your jump ability back after destroying enemies.
And even if they did it's STILL messed up!
Let me explain why my head's spinning over this.
Sonic 3 n Eddy is here.
It replaces literally every single sound and music track in Sonic 3 AIR with Ed, Edd n Eddy sound effects and music.
►GameBanana:
►Video:
At one point during Hysteria development I accidentally gave Knuckles an infinite height trick that wasn't in plain site and that was the moment I realized we were truly making a Sonic game.
Finally the formal announcement: Sonic Hysteria is BACK and it's ALL happening.
Full fangame, full OST, more than just level themes.
And I'm not alone anymore. I'm working with everyone at
@TeamTemporacle
to make this happen.
It's not just about me criticizing bad marketing then being a hypocrite, it's about doing the best thing for the game and this is it.
Hysteria became more than just "Mania but different levels", we have stuff going that'll blow everyone away. And that's what we're gonna do.
I am just some jackass. I have no game design experience outside Sonic Hysteria.
Getting your jump ability back after bouncing off a monitor/badnik was one of the first things I coded in Hysteria.
And it only took me a few hours at most to realize my bounce height was borked.
So basically I'm on the floor right now because I'm a god damn idiot and somehow these industry professionals are fumbling harder than I am.
@sonic_hedgehog
you owe me at least 60 bucks for this dude.
What's happening is that when the player's angle is 0 (mid-air or on flat ground) the jump height has a max value.
If you want jump ability refresh, all you have to do is create a new variable that activates when you bounce, and when it's active, it bypasses the max jump height.
Obviously Superstars and Orbinaut Framework are two different things so it may not be this exact thing, but it has to be something very similar. Orbinaut is made to be as accurate as possible to the classic games. This just adds up too well.

I guess Hysteria's coming out really good when it's gotten to the point where I can't play Mania anymore because it bores me to death.
I'm just mad I can't play Mania anymore because it bores me to death.
The Sonic community has Korg M1 fatigue which means we're entering a new era of Sonic remixes.
I'm glad even Tee Lopes brought it up because we had this discussion in Hysteria dev many times this past year. The Korg M1 ran its course and we started moving on.
Dream faked a Pokimane DM to prove a point, not realizing it would backfire and throw her under the bus.
She gets thrown under the bus and steals all the attention from Dream's allegations.
I can't believe this guy is so dumb it underflowed into being a genius move on his part.
>Dies in Sonic Superstars
"You know what Sonic Team drink from my ass what the hell was that?"
>Dies in Super Mario Bros. Wonder
"Okay that was my fault gonna stop sucking now."
Outcry over this is completely reasonable.
Amy is the biggest selling point and they basically handed the devs the drop dash code and told them they had an hour to do something.
People aren't upset over this because they're fickle Sonic fans. It's because this stuff MATTERS.
Pizza Tower never stood a chance and that's the unfortunate reality we live in.
The general public really does take 2D pixel games less seriously, we're just outcasts.
It's a cold world but us freaks gotta stick together.
I don't know why people are excited for Sonic Hysteria. There's nothing to be excited for yet because the only thing anyone knows about the game is that it has music. For all you guys know we could literally have Mr. Potato Head playable in the build right now.
Look I'll admit I'm excited for Sonic 3 mostly because I want to see how a room full of people figured out how to execute a 12 year old girl in a family-friendly way.
It's funnier because they can't just write Maria out of the plot. She IS the plot.
Indie devs I am begging you to understand that there are more types of platformers than Metroidvanias. I'm dying over here. Please make a Sonikirby where I can mindlessly and stylishly cocaine-rush through colorful worlds and not have to worry about solving riddles in a wet cave.
This guy commanded an army to trample his own daughter in a thirst for conquest resulting in a cataclysm and the the extinction of an entire tribe and here he is being depicted as a funny old man just like actual politics.
If Amy got a double jump by activating this move, the entire problem would be solved. That small little tweak would be enough to separate her from Sonic and mix up her gameplay.
And want to know something funny? It takes ONE LINE OF CODE to make that happen.
Please keep in mind that if you show your mom Sonic Hysteria she's not gonna have the enthusiastic reaction you're expecting.
Yes you'd be surprised how many times I read the sentence "I showed my mom Sonic Hysteria."
I think an industry crash is gonna be one of the best things to happen to video games.
It's gonna pull all the CEOs out of their money grind mindset and force them to take a step back, see where it all went wrong, then build something way better than before.
I hate to pull a Nintendo, but if anyone's working a Sonic Hysteria fangame, I'm politely asking you to stop.
@TeamTemporacle
is the official Sonic Hysteria. Having multiple will spread misinformation and confusion.
Not gonna be contributing to this anymore, Superstars didn't hold my interest past week 1 and I'd much rather put more time into other things I'm working on instead of a game I probably won't boot up again.
Not sure what everyone else wants to do with it yet.

Speed Jungle is a terrible name for a zone and I've been convinced they used ChatGPT to come up with it.
I tested that theory. Now I WISH they used ChatGPT to come up with zone names because damn.
Me: "I'm drinking orange juice."
Pokemon fans: "How does that pulp taste, bootlicker?"
Sonic fans: "Stop using orange juice as a weapon against milk! It's making the cow feel bad!"
Kirby fans: "Awesome bro! Enjoy your orange juice and Merry Christmas!👍"
Sonic.exe is the dumbest thing to ever dumb in the history of dumb. Like if I had a 1 billion dollar budget and hired all the unprofessionals I could, we couldn't create something dumber. It's maximum dumb.
