[@aissaslimani9253]

please turn this into a game your our only hope

[@VSheepVal]

I understand if you feel that way but I just want to say. This is insanely good. I love it so much. I replayed Sonic Adventure recently and seeing Gamma like this is mind blowing. you've done absolutely amazing work and I can't get over how perfect the animation is in "the search" video. all the joints and every way gamma moves is perfect. you're certainly a master of your craft no doubt. Regardless of what you do next, sonic related or not, I want to keep my eyes on it.

[@Miwjoseph16]

You could always release it to the public with open invitation to have collaborators?

[@MarkMann1]

[@E1025]

you NAILED his movement, from the animation to the weight and speed. I love the zone transitions too. What a treat

[@RadzPrower]

Yeah, I love Gamma's design and seeing him move in a modern way that fits his structure is amazing.

[@Elonyx.studios]

Not to mention the sound design! So many satisfying clans to his running, punchy guns and a sweet dash!

[@DireNemesis]

its the type of thing i wish sega would work more on with sonic

[@ZeGermanFox]

The animation and sound design on his walk cycle make just the act of navigation super satisfying

[@AltKaxREAL]

this is what the fans would 100% want in some kind of Adventure 1 remake, it all just works so well, i know a lot of people had said "SEGA HIRE THIS MAN" either sarcastically or in genuine faith, but i could definitely see Ranon working for Sonic Team with this level of skill and passion, the animations alone *scream* pure love and dedication :')

[@rogercameron6912]

The walk cycle looks better than official ones, my goodness.

[@Geneolgia]

It really shows how important such details are for the overall feel of a game, you have the best physics and controls but it would never click without good animation and sound effects.

[@Uguguabbabaa]

Yeah, I didn't pay much attention to the rest of the vid, the walkcycle and all his movements had the right amount of stretch and squish and the walk noise was just so satisfying.

[@bunslinger]

the very second gamma started moving, it already felt so badass to even just watch him move around

[@What-Hapen]

You're totally selling yourself short, dude. There are SO MANY TRIPLE-A games that lack the level of polish that you've put into this little demo. You're very talented.

Such a breath of fresh air to see Sonic fan projects that aren't just more janky Unleashed-likes. This is seriously impressive and from the footage alone I know the movement is buttery smooth. I know you said it's a low priority, but there is a ton of potential for this to be a cornerstone fan project for like SAGE or something.

[@salvatoreocello]

0:20 that JUMP 🎉 so smooth. The sounds so crisp

[@TehJellyLord]

I’m just floored at the quality of the animations! Even if another group of fans went and made something like this, I doubt they could nail down this bouncy and, ironically, lively take you’ve got for Gamma, which is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen for a Sonic robot like this. I think you’ve done excellent work!

[@remor698]

Yeah, it'd certainly be tough to match professional industry grade animator Hyper over here. The man's got a passion for his work and it shows.

[@Eldoofus]

I gotta say, the lack of a homing shot kinda bums me out, but that's nothing in comparison to how amazing it is to see Gamma being fleshed out to such level... and while I'd never doubt this fanbase's power to will things onto existence, I still wish you could share this project someday...

[@TetraBitGaming]

Hell yeah, this is awesome man!!

[@Directsandarchive3020]

Also holy hell those adventure field transitions are incredible.

[@xwreck]

Dude... Gamma's storyline is what made me realize people or things can "pass" (i was around 5 when i played SA1) This whole video, bro.... Gamma himself, his movements & fluidity, Station Square with updated graphics, The Egg Carrier in the ocean background.. 2:35 - 2:40 behind the scenes, the "adventure field" transitions are BADASS, especially with those music cues, Egg Carrier sounds menacing and fits Eggmans Robotic vibe. Dude, this whole video was a... It was beautiful, man... . Beautiful. Thanks for sharing this, i genuinely enjoyed watching this video, dude...

[@SnowyOwlKonnen]

If there ever is a "Sonic Adventure remake," or a new game with a playstyle similar to Gamma's but modernized, I'd definitely want it to be something like this. You did an amazing job on this.

[@galaxycamerata]

The combat looks absolutely stellar for such a small proof of concept. It still wraps itself into the general element of speed that Sonic games have, but the _enemies_ are what need heightened reaction times as opposed to the environment as you progress. I can imagine the E-series fights being downright intense, ESPECIALLY Beta mk 2.

[@KonesKones]

This is a really solid Proof Of Concept that would make a banger fangame

[@mikewumbo9263]

If you ever want to release this via a patreon or something I'd happily throw some money at you for working so hard. Gamma is my boy and you did so good on this. Please keep us posted if you do anything with this project.

[@FizzyGurt]

FELLA. The sounds and animations are so satisfying, It'd be depressing to see a Gamma fan game made without your touch

[@JimBimBum]

you just made me realize with quantum locking and ion thrusters with wireless electricity that gamma's back thruster isn't science fiction.

[@AveragePixel]

damn, this is pretty incredible

[@typreegamingtpg2198]

Something that I liked about Gamma is the continuous flow state that he had in SA1. When you knew the level, you could just be on a roll and blitz through the stage as you racked up target combos. Though, I can tell this is going for something different, in favor of a more traditional style of locomotion for a third person shooter. I think I just prefer the flow of the original. That said, I look forward to what else you post on this channel!

[@wolfox6954]

Gamma was a favorite character from sonic adventure, seeing him recreated like this is beautiful.

[@sqwid12]

Blew my god damn mind dude brilliant work. The community's love for gamma is beyond heartwarming to me, he's my favorite sonic character to this day.

[@StreamwaveProduction]

this looks more fun than any game thats come out in the past 10 years. amazing job. this honestly looks incredible

[@krimsonkartoffel]

Gamma has always been a favorite character of mine, from anything ever. Your animations are immaculate, giving him weight, movement freedom, and personality while also giving him a "toy robot" feel. While I wish to play this just to feel it in action, I won't hassle you about it. I'm excited to see what you cook up next!

[@GuiltlessGear]

This gamma looks ridiculously satisfying to play as, even if i'm decidedly not a fan of the third person shooter aiming replacing his iconic homing missles.

[@MuffinOfPotato]

This looks sick as hell. The sound design, animation, and movement for Gamma are absolutely unmatched in how satisfying it all just looks and sounds. I don't fault you for considering the scope here, though I feel that's just inherently what comes with working solo. If you ever manage to find and collaborate with a proper team, I do feel finishing development on such a project _could_ become a feasible task? I don't know how comfortable you'd be with such an idea, though. I'd kill for a proper Gamma reimagining, though. I just know an E-101 Mark II boss would go bananas

[@m1stq933]

Bro the movement is AMAZING. this is exactly how I thought E-102 Gama would move

[@Hysteria98]

I still bump the soundtrack to this game alone most days, and as the industry (and Sonic itself) has dwindled so hard from any sense of magic or creativity anymore, I come to appreciate more and more of this classic game every damn year. So many great ideas long since taken for granted and simply abandoned. This was really nice, but I wouldn't be asking for a remake of this game from anybody anytime soon, lol. Let once already great works be.

[@BiggumsMcHoney]

Wow, I wish Sega would hire devs off fan projects like this, a Sonic Adventure remake with this animation quality and new movesets would be amazing

[@Ducks4lif3]

I'm shidding and pissing into my pull ups dude I can't believe this is 'thrown togeather' the animation looks so great! That run cycle is a stroke of genius for strafing. Love how you make robots groove 🤖🕺

[@salvatoreocello]

3:43 the jump is way cooler than it needs to be

[@SegaMario]

If SEGA ever has Sonic Adventure remade, it needs a straight-up *REIMAGINING* in many areas, because said areas either haven't aged well, or are just so laughably piss-easy. I mean, with the Gamma bosses (barring E-105), you can just stand in place and spam the bosses while they can do nothing and you've won in under 20 seconds.

[@MasonParkinson]

i've never thought about an e-102 gamma game before but after seeing this you have made me want one, this is insanely well done!!

[@demetri2716]

That's so sick! Since childhood I thought there was more gameplay potential for Gamma I thought I was the only one. I love the movement here, it looks so smooth to play. I do think the lock-on/timer was a great idea though; Sonic Adventure only failed by making the timer way too generous so it wasn't challenging. If you ever go back to this maybe you could still incorporate it, have two different types of ammunition for different circumstances or something. Just a thought, either way this looks really cool

[@BLOODY__FATALITY]

If they remade Sonic Adventure and Gamma moved like this oh my gosh. The animations, the movement, everything is amazing. "Unpolished" Unpolished my ass! This looks incredible!

[@NickGoblin]

Your animations are so good. A reimagination of Gamma's story has been a dream game of mine for years now and I'm just glad there are others out there that feel the same.

[@doclouis4236]

This is really clean. It's a shame we haven't gotten a Sonic Adventure remake yet. But knowing Sonic Team, they wouldn't go to this length to incorporate modern 3rd person aiming controls for Gamma.

[@AltKaxREAL]

you made that beautiful ass animation of Gamma... now *this?* damn does this whole thing inspire me, i never thought somebody like you would drop a video like this!!! this definitely deserves more attention from other Sonic fans. also, i cannot express how much i love the bouncy-ness of Gamma's movements, you do squash & stretch on him so well, bravo 👏

[@CedDrawsNear]

This is amazing dude! Massive props to you for taking the time to work on this proof of concept. I wish you the best of luck on your future projects!

[@Goofy_Toons]

YOOOO THAT'S HYPE 😄 in all honesty there's a lot of potential in how you made the character movements. It looks amazing and that animated scene could make any Sonic fan scream "Take my money." I wish to believe there's hope for a E-102 Gamma game in the future.

[@SonbaricXD02]

This is absolutely amazing!!! 🤩🤩🤩 I wish I had money and resources to contribute to this, cause I'd absolutely love to see this come to life as a completed thing one day. The movement, the animations, the transitions, the FEEL of it all, it's so nice and freeing.

[@SoulHero7]

This is literally perfection. There's so much potential for proper gunplay in Sonic now. Omega could probably play like this in future games and feel quite nice. Honestly, if Shadow the Hedgehog had this type of gameplay whenever Shadow used a gun, the gunplay might have been better recieved. Project 06 proves that there can be potential in even the jankiest of games, and what you have here is a huge step in the right direction. I'd rather have Tails pull out his blaster from Sonic Battle and shoot like this than the wrench spam he has in Frontiers.

[@MachFiveFalcon]

E-102 Gamma has to be one of the most underrated characters in Sonic to me both in terms of mechanics and story. His gameplay from SA1, while not as good as Sonic's, was solid and left me wanting more. Your hard work is shining right through whatever rough edges you happen to see that I didn't.

[@emtbox7867]

An adventure game all about E-102! That would be super cool to see.

[@SHALOMIEDAHOMMIE]

Damnn Sega better hire you for the remaster. This reminds me of an animation I seen a few months ago of Gamma doing flips & tricks.

[@Geneolgia]

Not only he did a solid proof of concept around E-102 Gamma but also merged almost all of the SA1 overworld for the robot to roam around, amazing doesn't fully describe your work my man.

[@docktor.-den6134]

in general, it seems like all the mechanics of Gamma are implemented well, but I remember it also had a car mode. When it was necessary to walk too long and continuously, it transformed into auto mode and started driving a little faster.

[@Antoniopinto91]

If only sega had this same foresight.. this is amazing, not just for gamma gameplay, but as a shooter in general. The movement and animations are SPOT ON. The running and shooting mechanics look super engaging. 10/10

[@BLOODY__FATALITY]

This is how I imagined a reimagining of Shadow The Hedgehog with the guns. You'd go into a 3rd person perspective with the reticle while firing off rounds to shoot.

[@NimsoStudios]

I highly recommend making a small one level demo and getting it in to SAGE, then immediately pivot to your own IP of a robot that plays the same. You clearly already have the animation quality to make things look polished instead of the typical new indie game look, and your gameplay mechanics are clean. I've been in game dev for many many years, even worked at Ubisoft on an AC game, I gotta tell you, game dev needs more people who know how to make a game that plays well like this.
