Spiderdrake posted:Also if you don't like joke posts about the absurdity of the Sonic fandom and its corresponding youtube videos gee, so funny. grumpy incoherent garbage ranting is the funniest thing ever. these "jokes" are the best posting  I've found myself looking at playthroughs of some Sonic romhacks and fangames, after not paying them any mind for YEARS. And apparently two of the 'better' fangames are Before the Sequel and After the Sequel? They look fairly nice and they have some really good music, but holy moly the gameplay is pretty bad. Levels going on for way too long and are mostly devoid of any challenge. Or any fun level design. Or anything really interesting in general. Are there any other fangames or romhacks that might be worth looking into?

Last time I googled the Taxman games (after the bunnyhop video) I couldn't find any of those projects in what felt like a conclusive state. A lot of dead fansites, etc. What would you actually recommend for those in terms of actual links?XavierGenisi posted:gee, so funny. grumpy incoherent garbage ranting is the funniest thing ever. these "jokes" are the best posting And yeah I'll cut the being grumpy about where Sega is probably going to take this. I'm coping with mania not being here yet, man. And coping with that feeling of the Sonic cycle looming over us.

Sega aren't going to gently caress with Sonic Mania, and if we get future 2D installments they're just going to run alongside the 3D ones. One isn't replacing the other.

I'm glad that Freedom Planet is no longer considered the best 2D Sonic game we are ever going to get this century.

I read all of those books.  I remember reading Silicon Warriors the most but enjoying it the least, while Castle Robotnik involved a fortress themed on horror films, or something? There was definitely a team of robot filmmakers, and a Pinhead parody.

So, I did end up deciding to boot Sonic 4 Episode II back up for another whirl. I got as far as Sky Fortress before I put it down. While it does seem to be an improvement over Episode I (which I played years ago) it still suffers from some of the same bullshit that hurt that first episode. The levels are still full of "gotcha" instakill moments, especially at the end, and the physics just don't feel great. I've played through Freedom Planet and the FP2 demo and those have completely spoiled me in regards to how well a game can handle. So, how is Spark; The Electric Jester?
