I like how Sonic's physics aren't super floaty. I've seen far to many SRB2 videos where people essentially skip over the entire stage just by doing a couple of jumps. Here, though, you can actually appreciate the work that went into the level design.
Some stages this ends up not being possible, but I personally rarely try to skip too much wih jumps, only when it looks fun to try, that's what matters, right?
See guys, this is what you need to do when using the jumping sound on a tribute game. Use the right one, not the Sonic CD sound that was only used ONCE. Great video.
@@troywright359 It probably could have with perhaps a slight downgrade in the visuals, there's not really that much going on here. But likelihood is the framerate would needed to have been locked to 30 fps. Only way 60 fps could work is if they made it an on rails game, but then that would defeat the object of a 3D Sonic game.
Your Sky Sanctuary reminds me more of Marble Garden. You need to open it up with more porticos and openings. Sky Sanctuary was very open to the sky and felt "breathy" and open to the air. The layout is fine, just need to have the walls opened up, that and/or made of "glass" or transparent material so that it also gives the illusion of being open, when you absolutely need a physical barrier. I should be able to see sky in every frame from some angle. If you manage to give the player the sense of they are going to fall even in a "solid" room, then you've gotten it.
I'm not a sonic fan, cause most of the games I got frustrated cause I want to run like this video and I can't, I have to stop all the time, so I gave up.. But this video, this fan mod, omg, it's is how sonic should be, you can run a lot, most of the time, there is a lot of things to do on the stage, and definitely this graphics are just Amazing, I just love it so much. If this sonic was release to buy, I definitely buy one copy to give it try. WELL DONE JOB.
I didn’t understand SRB2 until I saw this video. Now it all makes sense. I’ve watch other video of it and they look cool, but the layout of the levels looked too uh random, now these look more laid out to me and that’s probably because I have a place to compare them to.
This is beyond good graphics this is artwork and wish to see it more in games, we don't always need glossy textures. Sometimes games need to look like games again but shaped with modern gameplay. Games need to be unique. Arc Work systems and their anime graphics is a good example of a game being art or Ratched and Clank on the PS5.
Take note Yuji Naka, this is what a true 3D Sanic game should be lik- - oh wait, you're in prison for insider trading and you left Sonic years ago. Never mind. annnnyway Great stuff here xD c_c If I were to do anything different I'd had more outdoors areas in Sky Sanctuary so you could see the cloudy skyline and possibly a floating Death Egg off in the distance. And why is Hidden Palace Zone being mixed with Angel Island scenery? It'd had been more fitting to keep it with Lava Reef just imo!
@@kykistehater the worst one that is still somehow the third best one? I give it more crap than it deserves, because i hate what it led to. That's not really fair, but it did show a fundamental misunderstanding of what Sonic is and why he's cool. It abandoned geometric japanese perfection in favor of looking like western graffiti, and turned the franchise into an absolute joke riddled with ridiculous poses and expressions and butt rock. (though the ice cap mountain BGM is great) I'm not saying you can't add more humans to Sonic, I'm saying even _Unleashed_ did it better than this. Sonic humans should look like Digimon characters. But no, they gave us a preview of what Mario would do in New Donk City.. just boring bland regular-ass real humans. who asked for that? How do those fit in alongside eggman?
I need to buy or download or whatever i gotta DO TO PLAY. Whomever created this, i hope your creativity and passion never dies for your future projects.
Visual effects and soundtracks are, for granted, breathtaking and flawless! I'd love to see, though, boss fights here, but with the original Eggman's machines, and not against those from SRB2. Is it likely to happen in the future? Thanks in advance, fellas! Congrats for the project!
Honestly the way the sonic fan games are they might as well be racing games. You got stages that don’t even seem to have a reason to explore. And the sliding on ice movement is always odd.
You can it's free. Works on PC, phone or tablet. Sonic Robo Blast 2. Hundreds of fan made levels a Mario Kart spin off and battles and races. IMO The best 3D sonic game ever.
Imagen if you want. A world where Sega did not fail with designing the Mega Drive successor, but took its time and released a console that also had a 3D sonic game that looked and played like this.
Not a big fan of the noise when he is at full speed, but it's otherwise really impressive. Would that a "3D" Sonic game like this had come out after Sonic 3.
What beautiful time it is to be a Sonic fan 😭
Ikr?😊
every time is beautiful.
@@Randi_MyMan IKR?
Agreed
@@Randi_MyManlate 90s-early 2010s:
Crazy to think that this was once Doom.
It’s insane what people can do with the doom engine.
@@Sonicfans1 There's even a full Persona style game with turn based combat!
@@MacUser2-il2cx what's the name of that game? I wanna look into it. It sounds like it'd be fun!
It’s sonic robo blast 2.
As for the link, it’s srb2.org
@@Sonicfans1 he meant the persona style game
More like if Sonic 3 And Knuckles played like SRB2.
Yeah, was about to say that.
More like if Sonic 3 played like Modern 3D games. It's too linear
@@roadkill_52 It’s not really all that linear.
...and knuckles
What IS srb2?
I wanna play the crap out of that, what a BEAUTIFUL way to maintain that pixel art in a 3D environment.
It's free and honestly the best 3d sonic game IMO. If you don't have a pc it can run on a phone, tablet or even the switch with some shenanigans.

Do you knoww
I wish I grew up on great sonic games like this. This is the proper evolution
Well it has been in the works since like 1998.
you'd have had to be born on like 1993 or earlier in order to live the full evolution of the game and being able to remember it Xd
Hey you always can have them today. I still plug in the classics to this day and I wasn't even born during the time they came out
See guys, this is what you need to do when using the jumping sound on a tribute game. Use the right one, not the Sonic CD sound that was only used ONCE. Great video.
The layout of this level is crazy awesome
It's insane how fans can make a more authentic Sonic game than Sonic team these days.
This feels more authentic than sonic superstars???
@troywright359 You got that rite. I was pissed it went on sale a week later after release.
These days? SR2B pioneered this. The first version was super early 2000s. I rember playing this over 20 years ago
Look at sonic mania, beautiful game
@@Ricardosousa1324 yes, but that's not a 'fangame'
Definitely how sonic should have been on SATURN
Saturn wishes it could handle 3d environments like this

Sonic R ost brings me joy everyday, everywhere, anytime.
I feel like this is the Sega Saturn Sonic game I always wanted and expected.
The fact we never got a game in this style back in the day is a real crime.
this is what I thought 3d sonic was going to be
With very good amount of optimization, if this came out on the saturn back in the day, loud have probably saved the console . Beautiful work !
I like how this game makes you feel like you're in a 2d pixel world, but in a 3d perspective
It is wild that this is the best-looking Sonic game I've seen since Sonic 3.
The music from sky sanctuary mixed together with music from sonic R is amazing

It isn’t his bro
What I love about this design there is no damn pit falls
Sky Sanctuary x Back in Time
transition was just smooth
And the gameplay is just bliss, feels like Sonic Labyrinth 3 Knuckles and Knuckles 3D
Yeah… I thought ‘wait a minute… this isn’t in sonic 3’ lol
The Sky Sanctuary theme to Back in time was just beutiful
This is what I imagined in my head as a kid when I played it 😭 this is amazing
SRB2 is an endless supply of good content.
It really is!!
unless you're new and can't walk on a bridge in the first level
@@thisnameisbad3609 You'll get it bud lol
what's a srb2?
@halamadridpatriotsnationgo1057
Srb2.org
This should answer that questions
The alternative reality where Sega was king and nintendo fans have to constantly hear, "Mario had a clumsy transition into 3D"
Sonic in 3d just showcases how truly free this character is. It's nothing short of spectacular
This is what sonic on the Sega Saturn would look like, but the enemies are still missing.
Imagine back in like, 1996 or 1997, we actually got a 3D Sonic game like this instead of... Sonic R?
I'm not a sonic fan, cause most of the games I got frustrated cause I want to run like this video and I can't, I have to stop all the time, so I gave up..

Imagine playing this in 90smth ooooh maaan!🎉🎉🎉
Feels so official. Wish i could play more this and similar games.
The design is crazy... Why won't the sonic team give us a refined version of this? It's cool !
This modern take on old Sonic looks awesome
hold on you're actually cooking here
I didn’t understand SRB2 until I saw this video. Now it all makes sense. I’ve watch other video of it and they look cool, but the layout of the levels looked too uh random, now these look more laid out to me and that’s probably because I have a place to compare them to.
Everything about this is phenomenal! 😯
I love it. Music and also the 2D sprites Doom style.
Open World Sonic 3 where you can cross the ocean by running over the water at the speed of sound. Thats the dream game!
That Sky Sanctuary theme slapped hard
If Sonic was a Nintendo IP they would've done this exact concept long time ago.
This looks incredible! I have to play it!
You should!
Plus its free, so you have nothing to lose

This is what Sonic 3D should have been on the Saturn
I always assumed this was what Sonic Extreme was going to look like. Shame it never came out.
The game is called Sonic Robo Blast 2 BTW, had to dig to figure that one out. lol
That intro to Angel Island Zone is so cool, surprised they've never done something like that in the 3D games
This is beautiful. Magnificent.

This looks more fun than any of the 3D Sonics that Sega has made….

This is unfathomably cool
If only they could have pulled this off on the Saturn. Bet they would have moved more consoles worldwide.

Wow everything looks great
This really could have been on the 32X... we were robbed.

This is literally beautiful. Sega gives no fucks about Sonic. Fans always deliver.
Sega actually does care about sonic and their fans. We just never ask for stuff like this
The fans have always understood better than the devs.
This is beautiful I would love to be able to play this!
You can it's free. Works on PC, phone or tablet. Sonic Robo Blast 2. Hundreds of fan made levels a Mario Kart spin off and battles and races. IMO The best 3D sonic game ever.
Sky Sanctuary is a bop
Always amazes me that fans always make better sonic games than Sega and Sonic Team.
This project is great but now imagine a remake from sonic 3 using sonic frontiers engine too
The running almost looks like a sonic 3 special stage
I was today years old when I learned that that minecart in arid canyon act 2 exists
What😊
This is so cool!!!! I love this!
Looks fantastic man.
I will pay money for this version of sonic!
SEGA Sonic Games: Meh. Average Sonic Fan made game: Wow!
Wow! Absolutely stunning 🥰
such pretty art
The sfx when Sonic's going fast sounds like someone left the faucet running in the bathroom
Imagen if you want. A world where Sega did not fail with designing the Mega Drive successor, but took its time and released a console that also had a 3D sonic game that looked and played like this.
something similar could probably run on ps1
I dont remember after images and speed boosting being in sth3 and knuckles. 🧐
That was a requirement of the stage mod, i can't help it.
Once again sonic fans producing better stuff than sega ever could. Power to the gamers
I think that's one of the reasons that Sean's so popular
This is beautiful
This is dope! But is the player purposely trying to miss as many rings as possible in the first minute???? Jeez lol
This is glorious.
That's the game we want
This game would have slapped so hard on the saturn
I doubt it could run at a reasonable frame rate tbh
Not a big fan of the noise when he is at full speed, but it's otherwise really impressive. Would that a "3D" Sonic game like this had come out after Sonic 3.
Sonic Team should have just licensed the Doom engine for Sonic Xtreme. 😂
this is really cool
Ive never liked the white color pallete for Sky Sanctuary
Amazing work
S3 from Sonic's perspective
Fans of Sonic cooking better than Sega
no surprise
What Sonic 3D Blast should have been on the Saturn.
If it did play as Sonic robo blast 2 Then it would be sega's first 3d game on the gensis before super mario 64
This would have made me buy a Saturn.
I wish I could play srb2
Holy shit this is beatuiful
How tf is the doom engine this good?!
Cool concept
This is amazing
You forgot suoer sonic on the start in the water and destransforme after in island
Eh, that would have been hard for me to edit.
@@Sonicfans1you wouldn’t need editing, just keybinds set to certain commands.
