(Stage Preview) Project Reignition - Dinosaur Jungle

[@EstrogonofeEstragado]

I find very funny how Secret Ring was developed along side Sonic 06, now we have P-06 and Reignition are being developed at the same time, anyways, nice job working in this game, you have a bright Future.

[@MilesReset]

I think that is interesting, not funny lmao

[@TimurSokol]

History repeats itself

[@zajac4817]

I know it's silly, but it's one of my favourite Sonic games. I bought it on my Wii and shortly after visited my father abroad. I took the Wii with me and in my spare time I was trying to 100% this game. It's a great memory, because I remember the game being difficult as hell and that it punished you for every single mistake. One missed coin? Enemy? Medal? REPLAY! I've got some fond memories of this!

[@mistermike4023]

"Wow, these dinosaurs are huge!" "So, this is why they call it the Wicked Wild."

[@megasoniczxx]

I really like how the UI shows you what medal you're going to get when you finish the stage.

[@KumaPauZ]

That's a new skill we added! I'm glad you like it!

[@greenknight9000]

If, by some chance, you end up reaching such a point in development, I'd love a skill to transform into Darkspine Sonic in regular stages like in other Sonic games where you can become Super Sonic

[@VoidRox0]

​@@greenknight9000that would be awesome

[@VoidRox0]

Come to think of it, we never see sonic use other rings other than rage sadness and hatred, what would lightspine sonic look like or even truespine sonic?

[@rehaansiddiqie]

The updated camera movement in the first log watersliding section made me squeal. Only thing that could be updated is the speed break's feel of speed, otherwise, this is literally perfect!

[@BatsOnSaturn]

The fact Speed Break actually destroys objects like the Boost now is incredible, underrated addition 💜

[@KumaPauZ]

This was actually a feature in the original game as well!

[@randomperson3601]

Can confirm, hated that one cactus stack at the end of the Die-Hard mission so I just ran into it face-first with Speed Break

[@untapped8776]

It's kind of incredible to me how much even something as small as making Sonic's running animation smoother and less strobe-y makes this game look so much better. But adding all of the control and gameplay improvements on top of that while still making it look and feel like Secret Rings? Incredible!

[@ZimSan]

Oh those speedbreaks going through obstacles were just sexy

[@stupidgamer201]

even without the visual touchups, this still looks so damn good!! you & whoever you're working with are doing the lord's work lol

[@strawbrryspirit]

Secret Rings has my favourite sound design of any other Sonic game I've played and seeing the game being remade to be played without motion inputs makes me more happy than it should I think. This looks phenomenal! Excited to see how the game will shape up in the future :D

[@vittosphonecollection57289]

My favorite sound design is Frontiers, but I do like the Silver Ring noise, the Homing Attack reticle noise and the menu scroll sound! Plus honestly the pearls sound effect fits Sonic Speed Simulator more than here, where it originated. Same for the Saturn 3D Blast music, I actually think it fits Speed Simulator more than the actual 3D Blast

[@aganthonygoody254]

This is like the next Project 06! 😊

[@SharperDOOM101]

And yeah, what you`re doing here is deserving of the title "the next Sonic P-06". We are rooting for you, keep it up! Well deserved

[@orealz]

Stoked to see these older games still getting love.

[@NoNamex1412]

Night palace and pirate storm are gonna go so hard. They're both one of the best original stages in the sonic franchise. Wish you all the best with development my guy

[@shockercody999]

I’m thoroughly convinced that this man can remake both secret rings and black knight…..this stuff is fantastic.

[@onesmartalex]

besides the obviously in development visuals, I do think one thing the game could benefit from is increasing the speed of Sonic's running animation based on how fast he's moving to give a greater sense of speed. Besides that tho y'all are cooking, keep it up!🙌

[@doubleG2]

This project has a ton of potential and this is probably the one of the best faithful video game remakes ever. Thank you

[@mizzix]

I forgot how good the dialogue during the stage is lol, it oozes charm

[@originalcharacter2470]

I have a place in my heart for Sonic and the Secret rings, and I'm excited to see this!

[@cayeds517]

Very nice work i never thought someone would make a remake for this sonic game. i have wonderful memory's of this game and the fact that this remake will fix gameplay issues from the original is pretty exiting .Keep up the amazing work.

[@dailydelphox]

Oh my god, this looks amazing! I hope you guys manage to finish the whole game like this? Having a polished PC remake of Secret Rings would be amazing, and this looks fantastic! It's INSANE how accurate this looks to the original?!

[@SharperDOOM101]

I played the Sand Oasis demo you published, and I´m speechless. Incredible. Sega needs to hire you & pay you well to let you do this re-imagining for both Secret Rings and Black Knight. I know it`s illegal for you to earn any money on a fan-project with copyrighted material, but if I could i would def support you financially. You are literally saving this game from fading away as a gimmicky title deserted on the Wii. LOOKS PEAK

[@KumaPauZ]

I hope I get to work on an official Sonic title someday. Maybe this can serve as a portfolio piece to get me hired :D

[@SharperDOOM101]

@@KumaPauZ We should send you to Sonic Team in Japan. We need to get in touch with Iizuka haha

[@ChloeVFX]

This looks fricken amazing so far- If I may offer one point of light criticism I noticed right off the bat. If I'm remembering correctly, the "YAO !!" in the first part of the music plays JUST as Sonic hits the ground for that dramatic effect !! Seeing that further emphasized in this remake would be absolutely awesome !! Other than that, this looks awesome so far, and I absolutely can't wait for the finished product. Please spend as much time as you need on this !!

[@KumaPauZ]

Ahh, I forgot to sync that! I'll try to add that back in xD

This look's kick ass mate. You and your team are doing gods work, well done. Can't wait for all of the levels, The party mode and story mode is fully done.

[@alexkimball4910]

It might be just me, but something about the ripples on the edge of the screen during speed break really strains the eyes And... thats about it when it comes to critiques, this is awesome!

[@KumaPauZ]

Speed break needs a complete visual overhaul eventually ^^

Very awesome, look forward to playing

[@trueblueblack47-]

Everyone else has already said how great its looking so I'm just gonna say thank you for doing this :) God bless

[@backlogpanic]

Question about controller interface: Is one of the goals for this project to support steeringwheel/pedals as a controller option? (2-direction movement, 4 action buttons, Gaspedal-for-autorun, Breakpedal-for-reverse) The only incompatabillity in Secret Rings (when compared to the original Wiimote) that I can think of would be the Night Palace magic carpet with its very brief 4-directional movement ride. But that could easily be changed to be more like another surfboard-sequence for this controller-choice, I imagine~ Sonic controlled with an accurate wheel (or Arkanoid-style paddle) might fit this game specifically pretty great! And I could totally buy into a reality that it originally came out in arcade like this! Maybe on that Triforce-board that F-Zero AX was built on...

[@KumaPauZ]

There aren't any plans for wheel support right now, although I assume after the project is complete there will probably be a way to make it work without too many issues.

[@819slayer]

Holy shit, Shahra's JP voice is Mai Nakahara. Legendary voice.

[@The_Dark_Red_GamingClub]

the water effect when Sonic is riding the log in the final part looks weird but overall a good stage

[@orca717]

Whenever you finish this remake, do you think that you might remake black knight in the future?

[@KumaPauZ]

There's a small possibility, depending on how long Secret Rings takes and how motivated I am. Otherwise, the source code will be available online for anyone else who wants to build off of it.

[@Terminal_Apotos]

Funny how both 06 Games are being Remade in a Single Package

[@benji777tm]

Is it too late to turn Sonic’s homing attack back into a punch instead of the spinball? He’s deliberately attacking the enemies in this game with Shara’s ring.

[@KumaPauZ]

That's interesting! I never realized that was the reasoning behind the animation. I'll see what I can do ^^

[@logear]

something about the running animations make it feel slower like in the original game that jank hyperspeed snappyness with the animation just makes it feel faster even though youre mechanically moving at the same speeds aside from that this is a phenomenal effort

[@KumaPauZ]

The run animation speeds should be fixed by the next update ^^

[@streamingforautism126]

[@skyerdot]

Amazing! 💙

[@backlogpanic]

Looking pretty cool! I am really interested to see if you choose to give Secret Rings a more stringed together campaign as a marathon play, or if you keep the old mission structure. But I have felt for some time now that a way to play a selection of 3 missions in bulk per zone, with the 7 zones in a set order, could have done wonders for this game in general. That would be *my* dream version of Secret Rings anyway.

[@KumaPauZ]

The game will probably keep the same mission structure of the original, with new icons to show which missions advance the story. I also thought that a more structured system would be ideal, but unfortunately that would require major changes to the game's progression since the number of stages you're required to play changes depending on how relevant the area is to the story.

[@backlogpanic]

@KumaPauZ If one would allow cutscenes to play both before & after a mission, plus with only few to be played spliced together, I think that you could get away only 3 missions with matching gameplay to reflect what is happening in the story. In Sand Oasis for example: -Go For the Goal -Grateful Ali-Baba -Defeat 20 Enemies -The King is Found -Sand Scorpion appears -Boss -Yellow World Ring And, if you decide to save Evil Foundry as zone 5 in the order, it can be like this: -Dino Jungle Go for the Goal -Smash Genie Eggs -Green World Ring -Find Dino Eggs -Rescuing the King -The Fire Spirit Appears -Ali-Baba's advice -Levitated Ruin Go for the Goal I'm actually kinda really liking the order of rescuing Eggman AFTER destroying the Genie Eggs & Restoring the Dino Eggs. It feels like a classic Sonic Game, with Sonic Destroying egg-capsules & restoring nature. And since Eggman is RIGHT THERE, it feels almost like that was the intention all along? But yeah, having 3 acts, with a main Go for the Goal mission, a loop Defeat Enemies mission(or Evil Foundry Escape Mission & Night Palace Rotating Room Mission), and a Boss/Special Mission COULD be pretty streamlined if some minor liberties with the cutscene-order is allowed.

[@backlogpanic]

I wrote out my own list last year for what missions to play for a casual 3-act per 7-zones playthrough with a modestly leveled Sonic. I do enjoy going through the game like this, and the cutscenes could work in this order as well. If you are at all interested, here: 1- Sand Oasis -Go for the Goal -Defeat 20 Enemies -Beat the Boss 2- Dinosaur Jungle -Go for the Goal -Smash Genie Eggs -Find Dino Eggs(I like this *conceptually* as a Boss mission, but think would benefit from major redesign) 3- Levitated Ruin -Go for the Goal -Defeat 20 Enemies -Open Sinbads cage 4- Pirate Storm -Go for the Goal -Defeat 20 Enemies -Beat the Boss 5- Evil Foundry -Go for the Goal -Beat the Boss -Find the Exit in time 6- Skeleton Dome -Go for the Goal -Defeat 40 Enemies -Find the Kings Bones 7- Night Palace -Go for the Goal -Defeat 20 Enemies -Diehard And the final Bosses!

[@KumaPauZ]

@@backlogpanic I'll keep it in mind. The original intention was to streamline progression, but I just couldn't figure out how to do it so this will be useful ^^

[@backlogpanic]

@KumaPauZ Hey, glad you think so! I have been thinking for a while to share this "cut" of the game with others, just to see what they think. I noticed that you so far have aimed to re-create the original menu-layout, with each Zone and all the main & extra missions in each own section. A streamlined version of this might be to have 3 main categories(Tutorial, Story, & Missions). Tutorial should just be avaliable as needed, Story to be played in order, with only Missions to have it broken up per each zone, as sub-categories. At least, that is what makes most sense to me.

[@poiberry8956]

some of the fun of the original was seeing how fast sonic's run animation could get when he did speed break. The run animation is gorgeous, I just think it needs to be a little faster

Will speed it up by the next update!

[@SpeederLight]

LETS GOOOOOO ITS TIME

[@xelandriadarkhros3516]

I thought it was just the nature of the build for Sand oasis, but now with this it seems the body speed you have for everything seems deliberate. So why does everything feel like its at a discomforting 85-90% speed?

[@KumaPauZ]

I recently tuned the running animation speeds shortly after posting this preview, so it should feel better by the next release ^^
