Hey, I'm the main background and enemy artist of Sonic Boll. Gonna be honest, the name "boll" doesn't actually mean anything, it's a butchered spelling of "ball" that was only supposed to serve as a project title, but the game became too big to change it so we wound up stuck with it.
Hey, I'm the guy making Sonic Advance Revamped; thank you so much for playing my game and for talking about it here!!!! I really, really appreciate it and I'm honored that you enjoyed it :') The video is wonderful and so kind even down to the more oddball titles shown off, and you introduced me to some fangames I didn't even know about that I definitely want to check out now! The history touched upon was also really cool to see, too (Ultimate Flash Sonic was actually one of the main inspirations for my game!) My game has been on both hiatus and very slow progress moving to a better engine on a better software, but things like this drive me to keep working on it, and to set aside more time dedicated to working directly on the game again. Thank you so much, again!!! In the meantime, I absolutely 100% recommend checking out Sonic VS Darkness. Incredible, fun, and influential game made by a real good friend!!
Nice to know you're still working on it! Many Fan Games just get abandoned...or just stay on a long time on slow or paused development without a word from the devs. I wish you a lot of luck and that you can make your game the way you want no matter what obstacles appear! (this also goes for anyone here developing a game and even those who want to develop a game) ^-^)b
The Sonic fans are some of the most dedicated fans there are. Even with all the questionable games SEGA has released, it still doesn't bring them all down, and they can make some awesome Sonic games! Like Sonic Dimension, Robo Blast 2 and Utopia!
Sonic's like an abusive boyfriend. No matter how much he irritates you, tells you he'll change when he always goes back to how he was, and constantly tells you it'll be okay even though it probably won't be, you'll always come crawling back hoping he's changed. But in all seriousness, it warms my heart to see over and over again that despite the scrutiny this community gets from people, people continue to do and support what they love. Makes me happy to be a Sonic Fan.

15:31 crazy thing about sonic robo blast 1: there's a remake that makes it a traditional sonic game in the works and i only found out about it when the SAGE 2020 trailer dropped. i was mindblown
I am friends with the team who's working on it. It will not disappoint. The pure talent that is going into the game is so unreal, and the artist has made some incredible work.
I really loved this video. Usually when people talk about Sonic fan games they always talk about the bad and strange ones (which yeah you did but you waited until then), but here you actually talked about some actual amazing ones that I actually want to play. It’s great to see people’s hard work actually being recognised.
@@lethauntic What I assume his point is, and I agree with it, is that, due to the fanbase's reputation for being total weirdos and the reputation of Sonic's games in general, a lot of youtubers just seek out fangames that are weird and/or bad, because that's what they believe will pull in the views. Unfortunately, that does a massive disservice to the massive amount of fan efforts that are actually good. It's not really fair for these creators to put in so much time, work, and passion into these games only for them to be left in the shadows of the likes of "Sonic.exe fangame #3476." So AntDude focusing on the good ones is not only a breath of fresh air, it's giving these games and creators the spotlight they deserve, one they don't get as often as they should.
Whenever i see a community come together and create such phenomenal things like these it always inspires me, warms my heart, and sometimes bring me to tears with how much passion they share with the world, (almost got teary-eyed just writing that) ya'll are so spiffy^^

Also there is a fan game that contains malware and their excuse is "I just want to protect my OC's" (The OC's in question are discolored sprites from a gba game lol)
Its dumber than that, assuming its the one I'm thinking of. He didn't want people to cheat in his game, so it contains spyware that constantly monitors your computer. If it sees CheatEngine has been launched *at all* even if it was never used in relation to the game itself, it makes it so any attempt to launch the game instead takes you to a bizarre sonix.exe tier creepypasta screen where you get killed by ghosts. And the only way to put the game back into a playable state is to directly contact the creator and beg him to check the box on his computer (because the spyware means he has direct control of the executable on YOUR system) that lets you play again. And you basically had to prostrate yourself before him and apologize as if you'd kidnapped his son. And then if that flag ever gets tripped again he wouldn't ever accept another apology.
Man, I honestly think it’s a disservice how the rest of the Internet treats the Sonic fanbase. I generally don’t like calling fan bases toxic because I feel like just about every fan base has toxic people and calling a fan base toxic ignores all the cool people and this especially applies to Sonic. Sure this fan base as it’s toxicity but this fan base has some of the most passionate and talented people I’ve ever seen and it spawns so many amazing pieces of fan content. I’m also just really happy that Sega encourages fan games. I’m a Nintendo fan boy so it’s nice for a change to see fan projects not immediately be murdered the second they are revealed to the world. Great on Sega for actively encouraging its fan base the way it does
Thank you for being one of the few people that remembers Tails’ Adventure. I loved the game as a kid and bought the Sonic Gems Collection on GameCube just for that game.
I saw this video and I was like, “Oh no all these fan games will get taken down eventually” but then I remembered that Sega isn’t Nintendo so it’s fine
@@therealtrue842 SEGA of America and Sonic Team did yes, but SEGA of Japan shut down Streets of Rage Remake, YEARS mind you before the series was revived with SOR4.
I don’t really like sonic, it’s pretty boring in my opinion, but I used to like it, and I was in the fan base for legit like 1 day and I left immediately, I was so ashamed to be in there lol.
I keep saying this but you should check out the Super Shadow Mod, it exists and makes the gameplay leagues better, I actually wanted this for so long after the tip on a forum didn't actually give me Super Shadow after beating the game and I believed it would be amazing then when I saw this, I was right because Super Shadow able to fly after using the Homing Attack able to go up, left, right, down, etc. then fire Chaos Arrows and the Chaos Spears, all of it felt breathtaking and I'll say again, Super Shadow being unlocked after beating the Final Story would have made Shadow The Hedgehog better as there's a reward for obtaining the Chaos Emeralds and go through all the effort that one may have not wanted to go through.
I just want to thank you wholeheartedly for not only giving these fangames the praise and publicity they deserve, but also including links to all of them in the description. I love Sonic ATS and have always wanted to play Before The Sequel, but have never found a working link. Thanks!
There was this really cool one you missed. It had the art style of the Sonic CD intro. It has amazing and expressive animations and an awesome air dash ability. I think it was called Sonic Freedom.
(AntDude!! Time index 9:53) "I mean hell, at this point lets take Sonic Shuffle and turn it into a 2D game". I did about 14 years ago! It was a Visual Basic experiment! "Sonic Reshuffled: Battle for the Chaos Emeralds"
Hey, I'm one of the sprite artists of Sonic boll (I quit a while ago though) mostly Amy, the kid and Bowser and super sonic, and also helped on Stanley and other things.. I usually dont comment on youtube, but I just wanted to say seeing my art in a youtube video of a youtuber I watched for more than a year means the world to me! (If anyone has any questions, ill try to answer them)
@@conic2721 Stanley, like the other obscure characters (The Kid for example) was moreso meant to bring an unique flavor to boll, he wasnt added cuz everyone loved him and his games, as far as I know!
Always a treat whenever AntDude uploads a Sonic related video, it gave me absolute joy when Ultimate Flash Sonic popped up as the first one since the that was one of my first introductions to Sonic as a whole, good memories shared by all.
I wish Ant would have talked more about Dreams Collection. That game took the absolute worst and dumbest parts of the Sonic fandom, and made it into an amazingly weird collection of experiences.
Diabeto drop dash, 3 characters with unique moves and play styles, super sonic, hoverboard, the choice of a momentum-keeping homing attack or one that stops you, elemental shields, bounce bracelet, etc. kinda lame all he did was touch on it for like 10 seconds and say “it’s good!”
@@deanmoriarty6015 he also briefly mentioned how it's being updated, but in more depth than what he said there are some major changes happening to the game, so it would not be fair to talk about the current build if it changes substantially. And again, even all you mentioned is not that much, it's just an engine right now.
What are you on about? I mean, ignoring the fact that most of what you said is completely incorrect, there's no "propaganda" being spouted here. It's not like either of us said _"Team Sonic Racing murdered my dog and will brainwash our impressionable youth"_ or anything ridiculous like that. Game's just good, my guy. Nothing wrong with having an opinion.
Given how they are basically allowing people to play sonic games for free, which hardly makes them a profit, saying "cuz their games bad" isn't really an explanation
it honestly makes me so happy that sega pretty much encourages romhacks, it's such a breath of fresh air compared to almost every other game company, ESPECIALLY nintendo
Nintendo when someone makes a fan game: “Take it down and sue him” Sega when someone makes a fan game: “This is cool, let’s publish his game and make it official”
Basically, fans are doing to sonic what capcom did with the first resident evils, and... naughty dog? did with crash bandicoot, and what sega should've done in the first place.
What is that exactly because Naughty Dog never came back to Crash after the first 3 games. If you're talking about remakes then yeah totally but Naughty Dog had nothing to do with Crash coming back.
Considering it seems to be a Powerup, since it even gives Sonic Spark's Electric Shot Ability, I actually think it's the other way around and he retroactively added that AFTER Spark was a thing. I do remember that both BtS and AtS eventually got remade into the Versions that Ant played for this Video (as evidenced by him mentioning the Music, originally both games just reused Tracks from other Games), and I'm pretty sure the Development of Spark was already well underway at that point.
@@agitpolat1061 I mean, it's unlikely, especially since with the Sonic one, it's just an added Beam Kirby hat, and the beam sprite is from Beam Kirby...
@@agitpolat1061 Spark was a kickstarter game. While he may have had the idea kicking around in his head, AtS and Chrono Adventure were both released well before he even started the kickstarter, which would make it very unlikely he had any significant headway in developing Spark by that point. The dev is obviously a fan of both Sonic and Kirby, which Spark is a mesh of. It's possible that one power up in AtS was him experimenting with the idea of giving Sonic-like gameplay Kirby-like powers, but I highly doubt he had Spark solidified as a concept at that point, especially since that power-up just gives Sonic the beam hat and projectile from Kirby Super Star.
Sonic boll is a brasilian fan game, and it have that name because the creator didn't knew how to write "ball", that in portuguese sounds like "boll", but i'm happy to see a fan game from my home country in this video
I love your writing, or just your use of words if you don't write out what you say. I have your vocabulary but the way put them together you're truly a wordsmith !
There are likely more Sonic games than any other game franchise in existence... All thanks to the fans... And well.. Actually more like all thanks to Sega for being absolutely amazing and letting people make fan games.
The overall fan game isn't called "Sonic The hedgehog 2020: White jungle", that's just the Sub title, the story of that demo. The actual name of the game is "Sonic infinity" and it runs on the "Infinity" engine, i personally think the bumpr engine is better tho
@Hernandez Aaron would make a great commercial slogan but segan't just doesnt stick as well as Nintendon't. As much of a diehard Nintendo fan i am, i dont mind seeing them get bashed once in a while so that is why i made this comment.
It's the meme, just in 3D. I laughed obscenely hard at it too. Justin Case you don't know, the meme is that Sonic (and all others with similar eyes), have one _giant_ eye with 2 pupils. It started with a famous comic, where an artist drew Sonic normally, then drew his eyes transforming into one big, amusingly gross cyclops eye.
Sonic dreams collection is actually pretty great with its meta game. Having to look at files to access the network adapter and stuff. And generally hidden stuff in the filming game.
I was a pre-teen Sonic fan and spent so much time on fan games like these. I was a part of a now defunct fan comic and their subsequent forum community and this threw me RIGHT back to those times almost 14 years later.

Mr. Dude, is it? Uh yeah we're gonna have to take this video down for serious lack of Yeth and talk about the Infinity Engine.
The consensus sees the complaint and refutes it due to the mention of Sonic Dreams, which is more nightmare than Yeth. This video is allowed.
Or SRB2K

The remakes of the game gear games makes me really want a remake of tail's adventure too. Heck i would even take a widescreen version
Thank you for being one of the few people that remembers Tails’ Adventure. I loved the game as a kid and bought the Sonic Gems Collection on GameCube just for that game.
OMG I would that!
I love that game to death.
Finally after 5 years of waiting Antdude has finally made a new sonic rom hack video
I want to tell myself that your joking, but I'm scared that your telling the truth

Flash games are not ROM Hacks. Flash games are, and this may shock you, but they're MADE IN FLASH.
@@dimitribottjen2495 I this an r/woosh moment?
"He's a thing you can trust"
I saw this video and I was like, “Oh no all these fan games will get taken down eventually” but then I remembered that Sega isn’t Nintendo so it’s fine
SEGA is a lot more chill than Nintendo, as long as SEGA of Japan doesnt find out, it's safe to be acknowledged.
@@UltimateGamerCC SEGA literally hired fan game and ROM hack creators for Sonic Mania, so...
@@therealtrue842 SEGA of America and Sonic Team did yes, but SEGA of Japan shut down Streets of Rage Remake, YEARS mind you before the series was revived with SOR4.
@@UltimateGamerCC oh. never knew that.
@@therealtrue842 yeah, so hence my original comment, SEGA of USA is cool with Rom Hacks and Fan Games, but SEGA of Japan is not.

*Dolphin emulator has joined the chat*
I keep saying this but you should check out the Super Shadow Mod, it exists and makes the gameplay leagues better, I actually wanted this for so long after the tip on a forum didn't actually give me Super Shadow after beating the game and I believed it would be amazing then when I saw this, I was right because Super Shadow able to fly after using the Homing Attack able to go up, left, right, down, etc. then fire Chaos Arrows and the Chaos Spears, all of it felt breathtaking and I'll say again, Super Shadow being unlocked after beating the Final Story would have made Shadow The Hedgehog better as there's a reward for obtaining the Chaos Emeralds and go through all the effort that one may have not wanted to go through.
I just want to thank you wholeheartedly for not only giving these fangames the praise and publicity they deserve, but also including links to all of them in the description. I love Sonic ATS and have always wanted to play Before The Sequel, but have never found a working link. Thanks!
I love how Antdude's attitude towards the Lost Levels is the exact reason Nintendo didn't release it to West
He aint wrong though TLL is kind of terrible.
7:58 is adorable
5:04 Antdude: Regrets Project 06
Antdude: Hey, this is not too bad
FINALLY someone giving SRB2 the recognition it deserves. So used to seeing sonic fangame videos not even talk about it.
There was this really cool one you missed. It had the art style of the Sonic CD intro. It has amazing and expressive animations and an awesome air dash ability. I think it was called Sonic Freedom.
He needs to do a second one of this.
Hard to believe I wasn’t even born yet when Ultimate Flash Sonic was created
when you want to joke about the fact these will get DMCA takedowned but remembered it’s not Nintendo.
14:08 No way!
Isn't there a Robo Blast 1?
15:27 Never mind. There's my answer.
you should play Brasonic, it's a game full of memes and also references from Sonic mixed with Brazilian culture

"Needs more low-poly Sonic." I see you are a man of taste.
i too, am a man that tastes things
"Unhealthy obsession" in the Sonic fandom can have a totally different meaning compared to what you actually meant.
That little bit of music played when sonic is breakdancing at 12:16 is driving me crazy as to what to where it originally came from.
It’s the Default Dance music from Fortnite
13:16 it’s ball in swedish but it’s also a game you can play on your lawn with 6 metal/filled plastic balls and 1 small ball
You talking about ultimate flash sonic gives lots of nostalgia
15:27
I remember when Gamechamp3000 played that one in "A Complete Look".
Love that guy
I see you are also a man of culture.
As soon as i heard sonic robo blast i got flashbacks from that video
A BLAST to 2018 my dude
Man, I remember that too. Good times.
Best way to enjoy a Sonic game: Play some of the good official Sonic games and play some really good Sonic fan games. Love the videos AntDude.
Fun fact: Someone actually managed to recreate Ristar’s secondary intro theme “Pray! Pray! Play!” using Sonic Robo Blast 2’s soundfont.
(AntDude!! Time index 9:53) "I mean hell, at this point lets take Sonic Shuffle and turn it into a 2D game". I did about 14 years ago! It was a Visual Basic experiment! "Sonic Reshuffled: Battle for the Chaos Emeralds"
Hey, I'm one of the sprite artists of Sonic boll (I quit a while ago though) mostly Amy, the kid and Bowser and super sonic, and also helped on Stanley and other things..

Always a treat whenever AntDude uploads a Sonic related video, it gave me absolute joy when Ultimate Flash Sonic popped up as the first one since the that was one of my first introductions to Sonic as a whole, good memories shared by all.
Sonic Advance: Revamped should be renamed to Sonic Advance: Advanced.
No? Just me? Okay then, i'll take my leave.
No sonic advanced
I hope we get more remakes of the Game Gear Games, imagine if someone made Sonic Blast an actual good game.
If anyone’s interested, there’s a legitimate speedrun of Sanic Ball from AGDQ 2019.
It’s wonderful.
Sega: let's intentionally mess this one important part so people can make their own better version
Fans: *Sonic dreams collection*
HUSH! We don’t speak of that in this house...
I wish Ant would have talked more about Dreams Collection. That game took the absolute worst and dumbest parts of the Sonic fandom, and made it into an amazingly weird collection of experiences.
Chronis67 I don’t think Antdude would recover from that experience if he went any further than he did
@@birdboy16 That and it would be demonetized. :P
"I'm not doing a rom hack video this year"- sadness noises
Talks about RB2- ok this is acceptable in exchange
SONIC robot blast 2, thank you very much
“Then Sonic Colors will make its way to PC”
Aged like fine-wine
definitely did not talk about project hero enough. literally the perfect Sonic engine
there's not really a lot to talk about at this stage though
Diabeto drop dash, 3 characters with unique moves and play styles, super sonic, hoverboard, the choice of a momentum-keeping homing attack or one that stops you, elemental shields, bounce bracelet, etc.
kinda lame all he did was touch on it for like 10 seconds and say “it’s good!”
@@deanmoriarty6015 he also briefly mentioned how it's being updated, but in more depth than what he said there are some major changes happening to the game, so it would not be fair to talk about the current build if it changes substantially. And again, even all you mentioned is not that much, it's just an engine right now.
Fun fact: SRB2 actually has a version that’s basically a kart racer!
Better than TSR no questions asked
It even has _its own_ version of TSR thanks to mods!
-no team mechanic.
-no voice lines.
-lower graphics and resolution.
Yeah fan games at good but this propaganda is qnnoying.
What are you on about? I mean, ignoring the fact that most of what you said is completely incorrect, there's no "propaganda" being spouted here. It's not like either of us said _"Team Sonic Racing murdered my dog and will brainwash our impressionable youth"_ or anything ridiculous like that.
Game's just good, my guy. Nothing wrong with having an opinion.
FoxMan there’s a difference between propaganda and having an opinion. In this case... it’s the latter.
Ahmad Kazan a kart game doesn’t *need* voice lines
_let's just say there's a reason Sega doesn't DMCA Sonic fangames_
Edit 10/3: it's because they aren't an evil, greedy corporation like Nintendo!
Given how they are basically allowing people to play sonic games for free, which hardly makes them a profit, saying "cuz their games bad" isn't really an explanation
Because they straight up love their fans, enough to hire the bigger names to make ports and rarely a brand new game?
Good god, can we go one sonic video without someone going “sonic games bad” please?
Tom The Fish Gamefreak? Dead? Ha. Funny.
@@personexisting123 Sadly no. SEGA has it made way too easy to ridicule and mock them.
it honestly makes me so happy that sega pretty much encourages romhacks, it's such a breath of fresh air compared to almost every other game company, ESPECIALLY nintendo
Nintendo when someone makes a fan game: “Take it down and sue him”
Sega when someone makes a fan game: “This is cool, let’s publish his game and make it official”
How is this video almost a year old? Ugh. Time goes fast.
Sonic fast. Like unironically, it is.
Basically, fans are doing to sonic what capcom did with the first resident evils, and... naughty dog? did with crash bandicoot, and what sega should've done in the first place.
What is that exactly because Naughty Dog never came back to Crash after the first 3 games. If you're talking about remakes then yeah totally but Naughty Dog had nothing to do with Crash coming back.
@@ojamison8460 well they did remake jak trilogy like 3 times

Oh so THAT'S where Spark's design came from.
Considering it seems to be a Powerup, since it even gives Sonic Spark's Electric Shot Ability, I actually think it's the other way around and he retroactively added that AFTER Spark was a thing.
I do remember that both BtS and AtS eventually got remade into the Versions that Ant played for this Video (as evidenced by him mentioning the Music, originally both games just reused Tracks from other Games), and I'm pretty sure the Development of Spark was already well underway at that point.
@@agitpolat1061 I mean, it's unlikely, especially since with the Sonic one, it's just an added Beam Kirby hat, and the beam sprite is from Beam Kirby...
@@agitpolat1061 Spark was a kickstarter game. While he may have had the idea kicking around in his head, AtS and Chrono Adventure were both released well before he even started the kickstarter, which would make it very unlikely he had any significant headway in developing Spark by that point. The dev is obviously a fan of both Sonic and Kirby, which Spark is a mesh of. It's possible that one power up in AtS was him experimenting with the idea of giving Sonic-like gameplay Kirby-like powers, but I highly doubt he had Spark solidified as a concept at that point, especially since that power-up just gives Sonic the beam hat and projectile from Kirby Super Star.
This is from Kirby.
Wandering Dude no, I mean because the guy who made this made Spark the Electric Jester.
Sonic boll is a brasilian fan game, and it have that name because the creator didn't knew how to write "ball", that in portuguese sounds like "boll", but i'm happy to see a fan game from my home country in this video

When Sega stops making Sonic games themselves, he will still be kept Alive by fans.

@@notredboi Because they're not good? Just let the fan making the series alive and Sega should focus on their other series instead.
@@ikagura I would not want that. I said when the inevitable day comes.
Isn’t there a Fan-game out there called something along the lines of “Sonic the Hedgehog 2020: White Jungle” or something along those lines
Yes and it's fucking incredible..
It looked bad
It wasn't too good
@@cookiesontoast9981 Agreed
The overall fan game isn't called "Sonic The hedgehog 2020: White jungle", that's just the Sub title, the story of that demo. The actual name of the game is "Sonic infinity" and it runs on the "Infinity" engine, i personally think the bumpr engine is better tho
Alternate Title: "If Sega Won't do it, Someone else will"
@Hernandez Aaron would make a great commercial slogan but segan't just doesnt stick as well as Nintendon't.
As much of a diehard Nintendo fan i am, i dont mind seeing them get bashed once in a while so that is why i made this comment.

Play Sonic Dreams to find out.
It's the meme, just in 3D. I laughed obscenely hard at it too.
Justin Case you don't know, the meme is that Sonic (and all others with similar eyes), have one _giant_ eye with 2 pupils.
It started with a famous comic, where an artist drew Sonic normally,
then drew his eyes transforming into one big, amusingly gross cyclops eye.
Ugh...I hate that meme. It just freaks me out.

Sonic dreams collection is actually pretty great with its meta game. Having to look at files to access the network adapter and stuff. And generally hidden stuff in the filming game.
I was a pre-teen Sonic fan and spent so much time on fan games like these. I was a part of a now defunct fan comic and their subsequent forum community and this threw me RIGHT back to those times almost 14 years later.
