    Sonic Storm is basically what I’ve been wanting from a Sonic game for as long as I can remember now. Low poly aesthetic, a shit ton of style, skill based mastery over momentum based control in a fully 3D game, level design that is as satisfying as SA2 to go for high scores, satisfying so purely blitz through, and satisfying to explore, as well as multiple playable characters that all play through the same stages but have their own abilities. I cannot wait to play more of this game and see the story. I’m genuinely as excited to see and play more of this as I am for Sonic Frontiers.
    This genuinely has the ability to become my favorite 3D Sonic game ever, no joke. P-06 is currently my favorite purely 3D Sonic game (followed closely by the Adventure games), so I think fan games that actually turn out to be completed definitely can be counted, but even that game isn’t better than Gens (my favorite hybrid game) or 3&k/Mania (my favorite 2D games). Storm has the potential to beat out ALL of those. I just have to play more of it to fully determine if it holds up.

    • @Unknownslenderman
      @Unknownslenderman 2 роки тому +16

      I count fangames and even related high-speed platformers as well. S3&K and Sonic Mania are great and, while not a Sonic game, Freedom Planet can easily stand right up there with those, being as good and as polished as those.
      As for 3D games including fangames, even if everyone knows this one I feel the need to point out that Sonic Robo Blast 2 can easily stand next to the Adventure series as some of the best 3D gameplay the Sonic series has had. The same goes for Spark The Electric Jester 2.
      Here's hoping that Frontiers and Storm somehow surpass even that!

    • @kenanwallace2124
      @kenanwallace2124 2 роки тому +15

      I can respect this take. Low poly Sonic isn't my favourite aesthetic but this particular game does feel like it fits the overall style of the series and feels fresh in terms of fangames instead of the multitude of Unleashed and Toei or OVA models out there.
      The gameplay is definitely a step up from what I've seen in other fangames as well. Nothing wrong with 3d momentum as well but it's not the sole answer to making a Sonic game enjoyable and without proper level design just makes exploration feel more like a chore, whereas this traversal system still keeps the easy to learn, repetition to master gameplay the series is known for and remains fluid.
      I'm quite fond of P-06 as well in terms of fangames that do 3D Sonic well and Storm is up there with Project Hero as well as Utopia in that space. Heroes, Shadow, Adventure 1 and Unleashed are my personal favourites in terms of the slightly more open levels and gameplay style and while Frontiers may not go in any of those directions, I do hope that it feels just as fun to traverse those open-zones.

    This is really giving me JSR vibes if not Sonic Rush. I adore the fact that Sonic changed shoes and gloves and swapped it out with some cooler ones, not that the previous one was boring or anything. I'm a big fan of the astethic. I enjoy how much the music juat screams Hideki Naganuma. I also like Sonic's model and is actually now my favorite over Sonic Rush. Outside of that, despite this being designed like a PS1 game, I really get Sonic Jam vibes from both the art direction and level layout and that's something I like. The hud is also way pass cool. Sadly, most games and fan games don't even do their huds justice like Storm.

    This is what sonic always needed, as much as I love adventure 1 and 2 and to a lesser degree heroes and generations. We need sonic using his momentum in interesting and fun ways mechanically. The game needs flow, not an on rails button prompt sim and unforgiving platforming. I want to feel like Tony hawk without the board combined with the flash. Give it some style and flair and that's sonic. The game needs to breathe a bit like this does. I've always appreciated sonic but even earlier games juggled what made him fun to play as and what was interesting to do. (Putting a spike wall off screen in front of a booster isn't fun it's a cruel prank you mess around with in a level editor to piss off the other devs) I hope some passionate devs take this and are able to teach what's left of team sonic some new and fun innovate ways to rework the formula because this looks fun. It doesn't look stiff and rigid. The momentum to dash back and forth makes sense, the free running parkor aspects felt fresh and made sense for sonic. Keep up the great work team

    This level design having a lot of paths is really cool. The problem though is how would any player know where to go? Even in this video it looks like the player got confused a few times. My suggestion is to imbed some directional signage into the level on a simple/easy path for newer players. Leave more advanced routes unmarked so players still have the option to discover them and try them as they please. If the level artist/designer is clever, the signage should not even feel intrusive.

      Pretty sure this is a test stage, either that or it being nonlinear is the point. Youre supposed to explore the level to find storm souls it seems. Giving a linear direction seems to be counter to the design intention.
      The runner didnt even get lost, they showed multiple ways to get through the level. Would kinda defeat the point of a speedrunning, time attack game to have directions on how best to clear it.

      @@dmdoombot8796 I don't think its a test stage. If you mean blockout, maybe. Though it looks more like Sonic Jam style level but finished. How does signage counter exploration? There is nothing stopping the player from not following the signs. It just helps players that would get lost from having a bad time if you care about that. I don't think you're meant to explore (like stop and explore) the level given that its timed and there is a start and finish. Its not like an open world. You have a wide variety of paths sure but you ultimately start and end at the same place and you're meant to reach the end asap. So you're still free to discover the best routes.
      I said that the signage would only be on the simple path, not the best path so players would still be encouraged to try to discover those better paths. I feel like you intentionally misunderstood my comment given your last sentence.

I hope we see this become more regular in releasing games in the future (in regards to indie titles at least).
