The fan project Sonic Overture was recently picked back up and released a new playable demo that brought back the magic to my eyes. Here's my review of what we've got so far! Check it out: • Sonic Overture '95 - D...

Hi pixel, good luck with the game. It looks fantastic and I genuinely feel like this could have been a sega Saturn 2d sonic. I read that Sonic was partially inspired by the Japanese Pop Art work of Eijin Suzuki. You should check out some of his work and his colours, your work already reminds me of it somewhat. I'm going to watch this project with interest!

@k.k9206 2 ай бұрын

Im a huge retro collector and enthusiast and ive played my fair share of fan games before, but if you told me this game came out for the sega saturn i would have believed it. Emphasis on the graphics, smoothing of the animations and physics, throwing in the sega saturn logo as your riding device to remind you “Youre playing this on the next gen console!” Such a deep understanding of the thought process of how they would have made this game for saturn. I look at your demo and think “Give me a physical copy of this game so I can hold on to it for life!” You guys captured some magic and I really hope you finish it! It really is amazing.

The reason that Sonic Legends has Panic City instead of Granite Zone is because the fangame is meant to be a homage to fangames in general, so each zone will be from a different game. PCZ is from a 2006 fangame called Sonic Utopia.

Hi, Sonic Legends lead here! I've been meaning to write this since this video came out, but haven't had the chance to whatsoever. A number of people on the team are big fans of your work, myself included, so words genuinely cannot describe the reaction I had when I saw our game get mentioned on here. Thank you so much for playing! It means a lot to us on the team to hear you talk about it in passing. The project has been in development for a REALLY long time and hearing its praises and accolades has skyrocketed the team's motivation to an almost unhealthy degree! A few things of note since it did seem like it wasn't really made clear, Legends is not a different iteration of the Overture project. Rather it is a celebration of the wider sphere that is the fan gaming community. Since Christmas Island is already an established place within Sonic lore as his birthplace, so some elements from Overture naturally carried over into it so on that metric we did use some beats as a template for the greater story at play here. The central game's scenario is centered around Sonic and Co. getting whisked away into a nexus point of timelines that are bound to those other fan games, making them all seem canon in different timelines. Panic City in this instance has nothing to do with Overture, as it originated from an entirely different fan project of which its only demo came out all the way back in 2006. We have a yet-to-be revealed zone in the early game lineup that should probably have a light bulb pop up over people's heads on what this project is truly about, as there has been a STAGGERING amount of confusion in regards to being a successor or revitalization of Overture when in reality it is everything but. I do understand the confusion to this, however, as the game not only has Sunrise Gate featured as one of several zones from other projects, it also introduces and expands upon story beats from Overture to make the adventure more in line with the pre-established lore from that project. Regarding some of the bugs, a number of the ones mentioned here have been thankfully reported already and we're planning to release a patch to fix some of these issues relatively soon (aiming June to coincide with the initial demo release we had last year). Another thing to note is the Sunrise Gate 1 fight against Drilldozer, which was explicitly mentioned here. We've received a lot of similar reports of the fight being too idle with it taking too long to actually start attacking the player and mostly thanks to this video solidifying how we felt about it internally, the decision was made to start over from scratch to make the boss more active in attacking the player. Hopefully when the next release rolls around that, we can offer a fight that feels more balanced rather than it favouring the player a lot more. If there's something I'm happy to hear it's the analogy made comparing the two projects, our exact intent was never to overshadow or improve upon the original experience, rather to adapt the pre-established material and enhance it in our own way. Let it be known here and now that we are in this for the CREATORS and not for us to one-up them. a HUGE push is made to make the game as accessible as possible for newcomers, most newcomers have only experienced a single game (likely Mania) or are literally playing 2D Sonic for the first time (I've seen reports of this actually being the case) so it does feel natural to make this a modern Classic Sonic experience to make this type of approach work. Since the release of this demo, we made a number of changes to the character controls and moves to air out some frustrations people might have and we also gave Sonic the Super Peel-Out, as that was greatly missed in feedback we have been given. That said, we do have a few plans ahead for people seeking a greater challenge or want a more traditional 2D Sonic experience, so a playthrough without a drop dash and shield abilities will absolutely be available down the road. I do feel like I'm spoiling things already just by saying that.. Once again, HUGE THANKS for playing the demo and shouting us out at the end there! Overture has meant a lot to our entire development team and to be able to adapt and expand upon not only its concepts, but to the wider fan scene has been nothing short of exciting to us! Legends never dies.

@D3sdinova 8 күн бұрын

It seems like you guys really nailed the mania feel. The elemental shields are also retro, not modern. And the drop dash was a great addition in mania. I think its the perfect balance for a new 2D sonic game. I greatly prefer this over everything sega has done since mania.

hi ,i worked on the level design and also created the combo system. just thought id say this is a good video , Lol !! im glad ur likin wat we have so far... as of right now we'r focused on workin on the rest of the levels n such , but hopefully all the issues will b fixed later. the game is a growing organism , and i am being kept in The Dungeon to make sure this game will be finished ^w^ something i will say for now , ive been meanin to make a big ol' post on the internet about the combo system , which i might go into deeper detail later on, but for now i wanna explain a lil bit about it... ur videos on project 06 kind of inspired me to include a good scoring system in the game ,and ialready did a few combo systems for a few other projects and was inspired by other things like NiGHTS n such. anyways, u got a lot of things right (like with the combo bar being fully replenished until you reach a link of 10, which is designed to push you to play even better to obtain even better scores). the way scoring works is you get 200 score from enemies multiplied by the number of the Link (so getting a 10 link while destroying an enemy grants you 2000 points and such). invincibility is not the only thing that causes the timer to slow down, as rolling and standing on totem poles makes it slow down as well. this is both so going through things like the tunnels in SGZ and waiting on the poles in GZ dont kill your combo so easily, but also it makes you have to think about moving around the level in different ways inorder to keep the combo going... last thing i will say . . the combos no longer appearing isnt a bug , as after 5 minutes you will stop gaining score. this is to prevent someone from just gaining a high score from spending 30 minutes in the level collecting everything and not playing at a high skill level compared to someone who mightve earned the same score from actually playing well with the level... and when i programmed it i added a visual with the SCORE text on the HUD blinking red when it gets close to 5 minutes , but lake forgot to include the object which handles that. the combo system was just somethin i designed for fun while workin on da game... at first every1 else on the team wasnt sure about it until i programmed it myself, and im really glad i put it in..... sadly it was kind of a late addition so the levels werent Fully designed around it , and there isnt any ranking system or watever because it was just a simple thing i did on my own time. i did go back and adjust the levels to better accommodate the combo system , so whenever we do another demo things will be more polished .. and i wont make any promises but we've Considered playin into the combo system more by addin a rankin system or somethin... IDK wat that will be yet tho LOL !! anwyays .. that is all for now .. the original overture demo from 2014 inspired me A Lot with its art .. and im gonna try my best to make sure it gets finished jsut because i want to see all of pixy's artwork fully playable and finished .... some of the stuff shes done for this game is Insane and beautiful and it Needs to be seen. until then . . iwill be hackin' away in The Dungeon . . .

Setting a 5 minute limit for accumulating score is a weird choice to me and as demonstrated by the video doesn't seem to be communicated to the player that well. Shouldn't the final score tally take time into account when calculating score so that either spending a lot of time exploring or playing swiftly will get you a high score rather than just one or the other? Your approach kind of seems like reinventing the wheel

@UnlimitedTrees 3 ай бұрын

@@Pr0jectFM i saidthis in da comment but da reason it isnt communicated well is cus the visual thing which shows when da score is about to be locked was broken in da demo. anwyays da reason i chose a 5 minute time limit was cus iwanted to avoid havin somethin happen similar to spark 3's score sytsem where getting a high score is meaningless if you can just spend hours in one level getting every ring and enemy rather than actualy being skilled at chaining combos and moving around around the level , which is wat da combo system is meant to encourage. and also i think its more interesting to try and maximize how much score youre able to get in a short time span and also iwas inspired by the pac man champion ship edition games which mainly have you playin against a 5 minute time limit. and also nights has a time limit for da score attack as well .. time limitz are good for forcin you to play well in a score attack like this i think. any ways. i think score attackz are fun and cool and i like playin da game in my weird way.

Objects that vary in size could work too, him pulling out some comically large piece of scrap from his small machine.

Inconsiderate? But yeah, the devs deserve love, this is insane. I remember trying to program a Sonic game engine 15 years ago and it was a nightmare. Idk if it's easier now, but - hard doubt. It's a very difficult game to program, especially in a way that perfectly replicates the classics. And that's just one piece of a puzzle that also includes graphics, music, good level design - all super difficult to make.

I'm so glad you talked about the scoring system. I've had an idea for a scoring system myself (though since I'm not a programmer it was mostly just a though experiment I did for fun). You still chain enemies and rings but there's also special power-ups that give you different abilities that can give you access to different routes. There's also a level-up system, where if you get a high enough chain you become faster and stronger with the max level essentially being boost. Emeralds are also found in the stages Sonic 1 8-bit style, but you have to carry it to the end without dropping your chain.

14:49 Hang on, this shouldn't come as a surprise since most of Overture seems based on Sonic 1's concept art anyway, but that purple robot is based on their original idea for what I assume would've been the main antagonist before they came up with Eggman! You can see him in the background of that one Sonic 1 concept art image with all their enemy concepts. That's pretty cool!

Dont let Bickuribox play Penny's Big Breakaway. If he finds out about the combo counter we may never see him again

9:28 man forgets that Panzer Dragoon existed in the same era, on the same platform

Yeah, there were a lot of games like that back then. It’s still very very cool to consider different style boss fights

You seem to have slightly misread what Sonic Legends is actually supposed to be, so let me try to explain - Legends isn't a different take on Overture. It's basically just meant to be Sonic Mania, but for fan games - reimagining different levels from different classic sonic fangames throughout history, and Sunrise Gate happened to be one of them.

Gave this demo a go and wow! I previously tried Sonic and the Fallen Star, but the level design just felt so empty, lots of running with not much platforming. This, however, blew me away with how detailed the levels are, the platforming, the rewards for curiosity and exploration. It all hits home with this demo and I want to see more! The level design here is incredible, I actually took the time to explore and didn't want to just blast through the levels. This is how classic Sonic should feel. This dev team know what they are doing, and with the right polish this could be an absolutely solid fangame that one-ups Sonic Team!
