Sonic Fan Remix

Post by trufun202 »

uhh...WOW. Check this out. Some proud fans have developed Sonic Fan Remix using Unity3D.



The demo can be downloaded here: http://sonicfanremix.com

The graphics are absolutely GORGEOUS and the music rocks! The play mechanics seemed just a bit off, but that could be a combo of the framerate and using a keyboard to play. But, overall, holy shit this is a FAN game!

And, apparently Sega isn't too pleased about this. They're trying to shut these guys down. I'm guessing because they fear that it will have a negative impact on their Sonic 4 sales.

Holy shit. That's so freakin awesome. I don't see how that's going to affect sales at all, if anything it's going to make player want to get a new Sonic game even more.

Oh wow! That's impressive as hell! And if Sega ever does shut this project down I guarentee this'll do nothing but bring disastor to Sega and Sonic Team. This game will do nothing but promote the Sonic name and show to the world that there are a ton of people who are finatical about Sonic. To shut it down is to show neglect to all Sonic appraisers :worship: lol but bottom line. Sega needs to chill the fuck down and just let them go. The only time when they should jump in is if they ever plan on "selling" "Sonic Team" franchise under their name. But overall that game is beautiful as ever and should remain.

The physics feel just right (and I was just playing on the keyboard) and you gotta give props to the level artist, he's got talent. I say this gives Sonic 4 a run for its money :)
