Happy E3 or whatever! This year... I've got my own game to show off XD I already showed some screenshots, these are from the latest round of updates to the game and will skip stages that were shown off last time. You'll have a little peek at all the main stages of the game via these (and those) screenshots...but not the Last Story or the bonus stages!
I'm gonna discuss each image in order, and I'm gonna number them too so you can find the pic I'm talking about. But feel free to ask any questions you like about the game as long as it doesn't pertain to when or where I'll release it... My answer to that will be along the lines of "You tell me" because I dunno yet ^^;
So, onto discussing the pics!
1 & 2. I redid the title screen myself, thanks for nothing lack of volunteers. The title's in full now, Copter has his spiked tails (sorta), the dumb silhouette has been replaced with the seven Chaos Emeralds (much nicer), and I've decided to call myself "Prower Power Studios." I mean, I'm still one guy working on this, but sure XD I've also added a Game Over screen for the first time in production history. But that was the EIGTH variation of the title screen XD
3. Some of the screenshots will be dark; The game was designed to show the passage of time over the course of the day it takes place... There are some places that override the dark tinting, though, so creative exploration can get rid of it if you hate it. The point of this shot though is to show Mr. FAQ Dog on the Story Select map. Ask me some questions frequently, and maybe I'll have good answers to give him! (lol) He's also the closest you're getting to a manual.
4. The pause menu. You begin the game on the Story Select screen playing as 2BIT! But he's gone as soon as you pick a story. Rumor has it you may be able to play as him again, somehow...
5. Tails has found Crazy SellBot's shop in Station Square. SellBots, errr... like to sell stuff. You can also tell it's a shop by the gold ring sign out front. The green ring sign denotes a Special Ring, which heals your characters. There's also a speed sneaker sign that points the way to Equip item shops.
6 & 7. In Station Square and the Mystic Ruins, most of the NPCs go about their day as the story progresses. In a way, they have their own stories going on. Occasionally, you can find some of them having a conflict, and can choose to intervene for an optional boss fight, such as the "situation" Sonic has found in image 7.
8. This image is taken inside the "Maze Game," an optional place to explore where you can find bosses that will help level up your main characters further than they can get in the main story. At the start of the maze you can find this area where all 10 partner characters in the game can be chosen to join your team of up to 4 characters. In addition to official characters, Rainbow the echidna, Zipp the hornet and Vortex the chameleon also appear as partners.
9. Find a secret train ticket, and you can reach Byte Space, home of BIT Squad! 2BIT needs you to find the members of BIT Squad scattered among the levels. There's also a trophy room in the back, where the special Doom Relics you can find are stored. What happens when you collect all the Doom Relics? Oooooh...
10. Shot of Punchy's first stage, Hidden Ruins. There are NPCs in stages too, but they don't have so much story going for them. You can find out what happened to Gunner's TV remote if you are an observant player, though XD
11. Shot of Tails roaming through Shadow's Shadow Arc stage in Free Play mode. The orange-capped fellow is Capo, the Wandering Wanderer. Talk to him on each stage, and he will befriend you and start asking favors. Help him out for various rewards.
12. Knuckles chats with Firepaw on EggmanEmpire.com, a cyberspace stage. This game was made right after Shadow the Hedgehog, and a fair bit of inspiration came from it...
13. Shadow has found a Free Play chest in the Security Tower, Punchy's stage. Metal Amy enemies chase you through the area. Look out!
14. Punchy inside the GUN Warship. I did my best with limited landscape art, but creating a believable flying machine out of bricks and tiles... Well, at least we can maybe believe we're airborn.
15-16. Here in the stage Under Construction, Sonic finds a vengeful Egg Pawn. Defeating it will level him up! The main game doesn't have Exp. Points, instead opting for automatic level-ups, so you just need to worry about rings and items. The bonus game adds Exp. points to the mix, though...
17. This stage is Android Assault. Who exactly are we playing as, anyway?? Must be Shadow with all those ring trails. Don't let the Shadow Androids confuse you! You gotta find Eggman-shaped keys to progress in this stage.
18. Knuckles has wandered into the Dream Temple in Free Play mode. Here, you can see manifestations of your main characters' dreams. Ever dutiful, Knuckles' dreams are focused on honoring Tikal and guarding the Master Emerald.
19. Copter returns to the ARK's Space Prison on Free Play mode. Late in the game, he can be seen wearing his Chaos Tailband.
20-21. Sonic explores Metal Heights in Free Play. Bridges extend across the ring trails so non-hedgehogs can cross after the stage has been completed. During a battle, we have a look at Vector's new battle sprites, which I had to scale down to fit in RPG Maker 2003.
22-23. Shadow explores Egg Maze using Chaos Control warp points. Sonic & Shadow must create the warp points, but any character can use them once set. Metal Heights and Egg Maze connect to a showdown, where Sonic & Shadow run into a rather ticked-off Sergeant Gunner.
24-26. Knux & Punchy end their stories in Chao Chambers, a large Chao garden where the pieces of the Master Emerald are hidden. Thank goodness all the pieces are in one place, or this would get annoying. We also see an example of Punchy leveling up and learning a Special attack after defeating Terra in battle.
27. Copter has reached the ominous final Dark Story stage, Darkegg Fortress...which is also the name of the third hub world location. The Lost Ones have taken over the passage he finds himself in, only adding to the gloomy and dire feeling.
28. The final objective of the Hero/Dark stories is the top of Darkegg Fortress. Tails is almost there...but can he triumph over his final foe?
29. The bonus game, Soleanna Struggle, is unlocked after beating the main game. Within, you need to earn experience points to level up, unlike the main game. Fortunately, after a point, special training rooms open up based upon the stages of the main game! You can build your own teams to explore the training rooms and battle powerful versions of the main game's enemies! In this image, Cream is the lead character! (in your face, Team Sonic Racing! :p )
30. Within those training rooms is a door leading to a final optional challenge for your battling pleasure. A Boss Rush! Take on increasingly tougher teams of bosses in seven rounds, with no healing except the items you brought with you! You need a level 30 Tails to challenge it the first time. Beat it once, and you can bring a team of your choice. What prizes await? It's a surprise...
