Sonic Jump gets a new update

19 December, 2012 19 December, 2024

Sega’s Hardlight Studio has released today a new update to their phone game Sonic Jump.

This new update is called Boss Battles, and as the name says, includes new boss battles against Eggman, located at the sixth act of every zone. Also, there are new gadgets at the stages, like diagonal springs or different platforms to jump into. Along those, there are two new characters that will be unlocked if you install this new update: Silver the Hedgehog and Rouge the Bat. There is also a new set of wallpapers available in the game.

Of course, the new update is 100% free.

But, that is not the only thing that this update contains. Deep hidden in the data files, there are lots of surprises, like what the latest updates did.

Spanish site Sonic Paradise reports that the Russian site Sonic-Scene has found several hidden characters, along with textures, items and even remains of a new stage, called Cosmic Zone.

The new characters are Cream the Rabbit, Vector the Crocodile and Shadow the Hedgehog, who remain locked in the depths of the game. There is no info on how they can be unlocked, but since they are fully functional with this update, it’s probable they will be announced and unlocked with some sort of alternate quest soon, like Blaze the Cat did

I’m diggin’ the art style!

What about Espio?

I like how Shadow’s pose is a redrawing of his 3D render from Sonic 2006. 😛

I’d have replaced Cream with Charmy and added in Espio. That’s me as a Chaotix fan. Thank goodness for Vector though.

I really like these sprites, Hardlight actually did a great job with these.

Wow, I’m shocked they added Vector, that’s pretty cool. They fucked up the front of Silver’s boots though. They should be green, not cyan. Cream’s dress is to light too, but that’s negligible. Who’s compiling these sheets anyways, the layout is atrocious, no sense of order at all.

Android. Nuff fucking said.

I don’t get it. What do these new characters add?!?!

Uh, Skai Cyan?
Silver’s boots are colored correctly…

@SonicGo!
Nope, they’re too bright. They’re like the color of the shine on his boots. Compare to this.

Traced 3D renders is what it take to make the characters. It may not be as much effort but it’s still very nice.

ANDROID PORT SEGA, REMEMBER?!

@Skai

In all honesty, who gives a shit if his shoes are brighter? Damn.

@Tenchi
I really don’t care, and considering it’s a mobile game I really REALLY don’t give a rat’s ass. I just noticed it is all. I’m one of those jerks that point out something in a picture/video and goes, “Now you can’t unsee it.” It’s fun for me.
