Got a game over in Flying Battery Zone
So embarrassing

Press Garden
Tee Lopez got the juice now

So far the bosses have all been amazing and creative. Not sure who came up with the concepts but well done regardless

You can tell this gsme was done by people involved in the fan game community

I looked at videos of the final boss on youtube and it looks insane in a hood way

Definitely copping this and Freedom planet when i get a ps4

Yeah the main developer has been ROM-hacking Sonic games and posting them on forums since the like the early 00s. He pretty much knows the engines & mechanics inside and out. In fact he caught Sega's attention because he was gonna do a ground up remake of Sonic CD with some enhancements and bugfixes, and when Sega heard about it instead of shutting it down they just paid him to make it an official remake, which became the 2011 HD version.

As much as Taxman & Stealth deserve the major love this game is getting... Tee Lopes needs his just due.

That man put in work on them boards

Oil Ocean boss kicking my ass!

It got a lot of people don't feel bad.

My advice is... obviously when the laser gun comes up, get on the platform furthest away from it.

Take down the tentacles first and as fast as you possibly can since they shoot fireballs. Dont even worry about Robotnik until you take both of them down. Once you do that he's completely disarmed and just whack him until he dies.

only on the third level and I'm already

What system you get it on?

I swear the UFO straight disappears after a while

I'm having a hard time finding these giant rings. So far I've found 4 and only got 2 chaos emeralds

I actually like these bonus stages. I'm starting to get the hang of it.....I just need to find some damn rings

I don't want to look up their locations cause I'm afraid of spoilers
Man, I am loving these boss battles

The sonic CD zone has the smoothest track so far

As soon as I remembered it's a sonic CD zone, I went through the level as quick as possible

I'm also getting this on PC....this game is that DOPE


I can't believe it brehs......Sonic truly back

Is it me or does 3D version of Sonic in the bonus stages looks and moves like he did in sonic R?

Yeah the whole game is going for the Sega Saturn aesthetic.

The reason why I think Sega didn't shut him down is because, unlike other rom hackers, he developed the Retro engine.

Sitting here waiting for the PC version

I can't find any of those giant rings.
It doesn't matter much, I suck at that special stage anyway. By the time I get to full speed, the UFO is nowhere to be seen
I don't mind getting the bad ending on first play through. I'm assuming having all the chaos emeralds unlocks a new final stage and boss like Sonic 3 & Knuckles
