Sonic Time Twisted 2009 Sage Demo

^_^

MFZB made me a new Rino Beetle and Wasp sprite isn’t he the best! And doesn’t it look like it came right from Sonic CD? You’ll have to wait til Sage to see the Wasp.

I’ve been getting a very positive response to the video I showed off yesterday. However some people didn’t quite like the camera I talked it over with Damizean and he went ahead and made a whole new camera. Here’s a video clip of the new camera.

He’s a YouTube video preview of the upcomming Sage Demo for Time Twisted the Demo is done quite honestly I could release it today if I chose but I’m working on the special stage kind of hoping to get it done before Sage but its unlikely as I’ve never had to work in 3D before.

Over the years of working on Time Twisted its come to my attention that many people in the Sonic community mainly SFGHQ aren’t really fond of the time travel gimmick in Sonic CD.  In the past some of them have been even less fond of the scaled down time travel in Time Twisted. However I’ve always been a big fan of the time travel as it adds an extra level of exploration that you just don’t get out of other Sonic games mainly Sonic 1 and 2. As you’d expect Time Travel will play apart of the upcoming Sage Demo but things are a little bit different this time.

First the posts, unlike in Sonic CD where you have to achive a high rate of speed to time travel, Time Twisted lets you again the speed you need by swinging around the polls which will captapult you foward in to the new time zone. You can also canncel the time travel by skidding to a halt before you reach full speed.

Another feature to help encourage players to use time travel and add some replay value to the demo is the fact that there will be 2 cut scenes in the demo but you have to use time travel and a little exploration to find them. Speaking of cut scenes there’s a new picture of one of them in the screen shots go check it out.

Last while the changes from future and past are not as big as in Sonic CD. Time Twisted has different music for each version and paths and gimmicks unquie to each time zone.

This is what you can expect from the Time Trave l feature in the demo. I have a lot of other ideas that I’m sure will be implanted before the release of the finished product.

Hey not too much to add today after getting the site up and running I haven’t felt a need to mess with it much just yet. I just stopped by to say Time Twisted is well on its way to be a full round for Sage. I’ve got one zone and a boss all done and another zone will be a cakewalk considering what is already accomplished.

Also if anyone stops by feel free to add a comment it would be nice to know someone’s out there ^_^.

I love Wordpress don’t you? Anyway I think this game now has the website it deserves. Using Wordpress will also allow me to update easier so maybe I can convince myself to do so more often. I added the old version 0.5 Demo which never found its way to the main site and updated the website with the new information on the revamped new incarnation of this game. As always I plan on making it to Sage. As it stands now Time Twisted has one zone completed so I’ve at least got that to show if nothing else. I expect to show a full Round however.
