FoF: Sonic Unleashed Adventure

8 May, 2009 16 January, 2025

Sonic fans were shouting from the top of mountains when Unleashed came about; “2D Sonic game play has arrived!”. While this turned out to be a good venture for the Sonic series ‘Sonikku Master’ has created a fan game that takes it one step further. He has created Unleashed game play in a full 2D environment. He has also added some test features which could be promising.

Sonikku Master’s game is explicitly a demo, and I think we would all agree with him. It is a novel idea which at points has been implemented very well. Unfortunately I think the game physics need a lot of work at the moment. Sonic’s movement is a bit jerky at the best of times. I was also frustrated at how long it took Sonic to speed up, and then when he had it felt like he was going a bit too fast for the obstacles at hand. These are all points that I am sure Sonikku Master has been working on since releasing this demo though.

There are points about this game that I like very much. For example, the level design really does feel like a 2D representation of an Unleashed style level. The different length platforms, enemies arranged like stairs to get places. A very smart feature that he implemented was the ability to turn Super! I really like this. Once you are Super, Sonic is no longer bound to the platforms. And rather like in the last level of Sonic and Knuckles you control Sonic as if he is flying. A very novel yet effective idea.

This demo is well worth a shot. I hope Sonikku Master plans to improve the game further in the future. See the download link below:

Yeah, it reeeally NEED improvement! No boost!? WHAT?
I don’t like fan game, but if he makes Sonic faster and fix some problem. It will be a okay fan game. Som fan games are really good. But not many. I played something like 2 fan games that was really good.

Cool.

Cool stuff.

its a sad day for Tssznews when they have to resort to posting coverage for games like these just to meet their news quota.

I’m not sure if I will continue working on Unleashed Adventure, as I’m trying to let go of Game Maker and learn programming. Anyway, I hope people enjoyed the demo!
🙂

I may consider remaking it using programming though!

Jeeez, community getting rough on TSSZ news or what? Oh, and good job Sonikku Master.

@flame6753 Dude, this is not to make up quota. Instead of hammering on peoples work, why not make the best of it. It’s a nice effort. I have seen a lot worse from fan games.

If you think you have made better, send it in and I will write it up.

I downloaded it to try it, seeing if it was any good…boy was I disappointed. This is BAD. Gamemaker just doesn’t quite work for Sonic.

yay! Go sonikku! Still remember the little people like me? 😉 Too bad my comp didn’t let me play yor game all those months ago, I still don’t think the stupid thing will do it either, but I’m still wishing you all the best in learning programming!

Wait….??? Sonikku Master?

The S_M from SEGA Message Boards?
Dang…. you really got somewhere in your internet life.

Maybe I should try it…

@GREG THE CAT:

That’s not me on the SEGA Message Boards.

Oh, and thank you TailstheHedgehog.

I will download it! I like Sonic Unleashed! Lets see if it’s good! 🙂

Now I played it! It was very good! And the fun thing was that I have allready played it! HAHA! I played it for let see… maybe a half year ago when it wasn’t finnished! But it was a bit diffrent this time. Chun Nan didn’t exist then and I think it wasn’t that well done. But it was a very good game I think! The controls were not that good and in the first level I din’t know that you can press L and come to the last checkpoint so I played the level over and over again…
But anyway! It was very good! 😀
