Follow on Twitter @kronkblats Fan Scene: Sonic XG Back in DevelopmentThursday, January 3rd, 2013The infamous Sonic fan game Sonic XG is back in development as a one-man project by Joseph Waters. Waters was a part of the original development team that also included Euan Gallacher and Christian Whitehead and has their support to complete the game alone. Both Gallacher and Whitehead have supplied Waters with all their Sonic XG material to make Waters’ job a little easier. The game is being developed using Waters own custom Sonic & Knuckles clone engine. You can see 2 previews of the game in its’ current incarnation below: There is currently no playable version available at this time as we’re assuming that Waters intends to release the game when it is complete rather than put a demo out. A playable demo from 2007 is still available to download from Sonic Retro. Webmaster and lead writer at SEGADriven. Likes old games, heavy music and too much pizza.

Follow on Twitter @kronkblats Fan Scene: Sonic Fusion Discontinued, Final Version Released for DownloadWednesday, December 5th, 2012Felik’s rather magnificent fangame Sonic Fusion has bitten the bullet and the final version of the game has been released for download. You can download the game via this link. Sonic Fusion was a really interesting blend of old school 2D Sonic platforming with a new school set of techniques like homing attacks and boosting. It also features a great mash-up of graphics sourced from various Sonic games like Sonic 3D Blast and Sonic Advance.

Follow on Twitter @kronkblats DUX Sequel in the Works for Dreamcast; Kickstarter Campaign StartedWednesday, May 9th, 2012DUX, the 2D shoot-em-up released by Hucast on Dreamcast in 2009 is getting a sequel called Redux: Dark Matters and the developers have taken to Kickstarter in order to get the project the funding it needs. The goal of the Kickstarter is to bring the game to XBLA, PSN and Steam through the sale of a limited edition Dreamcast version. This version will also come boxed with a new version of DUX called DUX 1.5 which features additional improvements over its’ original release. Also being made available is a 4 disc boxset of the soundtrack featuring music composed by Andre Neumann and remixes by the legendary Chris Huelsbeck of Turrican fame. The game will also be released on iOS/iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch in July this year. The Dreamcast release is scheduled for December while the release on Steam, XBLA and PSN is tentative as it all relies on the Kickstarter campaign. If you want to pledge towards Redux: Dark Matter then click here to be taken to the Kickstarter page.

Follow on Twitter @kronkblats Fan Scene: Sonic 2 HD Kicks the BucketThursday, April 19th, 2012Sonic 2 HD, the promising HD fan remake of Sonic 2 has been officially cancelled as per a message left by Vincent (the project leader) on the project’s official Facebook. Reasons for this are mainly pinned on ex-lead developer LOst who wouldn’t provide the rest of the team with a DRM free version of the game and is solely responsible for the inclusion of the DirectInput bug which made users believe they’d downloaded a keylogger. He is also the only person holding what would be the source code for the game so production cannot continue without his involvement. DRAMA. Never-the-less, it’s sad to see the project go as the alpha demo was an impressive piece of work by what is essentially a bunch of bedroom coders. 2 members of the team (scanline99 and Cerulean Nights) have moved on to other independent work in hopes of furthering their game-developing careers and we wish them all the best for the future.

Follow on Twitter @kronkblats Keylogger in Sonic 2 HD Not Harmful; Lead Programmer Fired From ProjectWednesday, April 11th, 2012Members of Sonic Retro have discovered that the keylogger found in Sonic 2 HD’s code is not harmful to anyone who downloaded the game. Lead programmer LOst has also been fired from the team after “several allegations from team members that LOst held the project hostage through the inclusion of DRM, public feedback of a bloated engine running an otherwise simplistic game, and other behind the scenes issues.” [Source: Sonic Retro] Webmaster and lead writer at SEGADriven.
