DAMMIT rigging sux....but I DID IT! i rigged a character in blender! Not bad for 9 days of learning. Whatcha think? #sonicteam #sonicthehedgehog #sonicfanart #sonicforces #sonicmaniafanart #sonicmania #sonic #conceptart #doodles #sketch #eggman #badnik #sonicadventure #sonicadventure3 #3dsonicgame #underwater #stageconcept #sonicventure #toeisonic #soniccd #classicsonic #3dsonic #blender #3dmodeling #characterigging

So i released Flare...now meet Sonic.... Lol jk....the game's called Sonic Venturen Of course sonic is a character in it. I presented Flare a certain way. I wanted to give sonic the same treatment.

Something i loved sonic 3 & knuckles for was the sort of trasitions between acts and zones. I want to take that to a new level, attempting a completely seamless experience. Imagine beating an eggman boss, Sonic poses for the result screen, small cut scene happens, and then straight to gameplay in the next zone with NO FADE TO BLACK! I feel like that would make the adventure feel more connected.

Sketches are nice...But let's add some color. Theming the "tutorial" portion. I say "tutorial" but i don't believe in text prompts or little helpers telling you what buttons do what...also omochao can die in a fire! Its a wip so ill expand more on it when i finish it tomorrow... For now, here's a peek... #sonicteam #sonicthehedgehog #sonicfanart #sonicforces #sonicmaniafanart #sonicmania #sonic #conceptart #doodles #sketch #eggman #badnik #sonicadventure #sonicadventure3 #3dsonicgame #underwater #stageconcept

I was thinking about how the loops should be designed in my fan game to ensure that they work properly. In the 2d Genesis games, they weren't much bigger than sonic and he could get through with relative ease as long as he had enough speed. As im going for a non-automated, non-scripted, natural feel with a properly implemented physic engine to accommodate for the complexities of 3d space, the loops would need to be modified. Sonic Adventure originally made every loop scripted because of hardware limitations. Also going through a loop that small would just make the experience dizzying from the camera angle and frustrating as at higher speeds, you could fall off if you didn't have enough control over sonic. So they took control away from the player, reducing every loop from an obstacle to a spectacle. So what if the loop were slightly bigger gradually looping the camera at a slower pace to give the player's eyes more time to adjust to the change in camera angles. The more they go through this loops, the more they will adjust and by the later levels their eyes will have been used to the loops. And what if we make them wider, to accommodate for any control adjustments. The idea is that if you increase Sonic's turn arc, at speed, you should be able to stay on the loop long enough to make it around. No sonic adventure/sonic 06 90 deg turns art the speed of sound am i right? Lol What do you think? #sonicteam #sonicthehedgehog #sonicfanart #sonicforces #sonicmaniafanart #sonicmania #sonic #conceptart #doodles #sketch #eggman #badnik #sonicadventure #sonicadventure3 #stageconcept #sonic3 #sonic3andknuckles

Cool themed & interesting bosses are another aspect of the sonic series that ive always enjoyed but has had little to no success in execution within recent years (except for sonic mania). Meet the "Kr-egg-ken". A well versatile boss badegg. Surrounding ice burg platforms allow you to dodge and weave through the attacking tentacles, all of which sport very lethal weapons. I spitballing but what if you can utilize the attacking tentacles as an optional means for platforming (kinda like the bayonetta boss Iustitia) to attack eggman atop of the mech (aside from the sparse sloping ice masses surrounding him)? Maybe you run from the ice on to the water surface before diving below the surface to attack him from below. Not of this stuff would be automated and you'd have the freedom of taking eggman however you want. Just spitballin.

Deep sea zone (might change the name) act 1 dark depths is more tense as this part is extremely dark. The only things lighting your way are your position and the rings in the area. Be careful. There's a new badnik that will use your treasures to its advantage all throughout this part of the level. I might add a elemental shield of light that bightens your way more.

Here's a take on what an underwater stage in my sonic fan game might look like. Its not the beginning of the game(more like the middle) but i wanted to continue with the underwater motif. "Deep Sea Zone act1" (the seafloor part) Whatcha think? #sonicteam #sonicthehedgehog #sonicfanart #sonicforces #sonicmaniafanart #sonicmania #sonic #conceptart #doodles #sketch #eggman #badnik #sonicadventure #sonicadventure3 #3dsonicgame #underwater #stageconcept
