I deeply admire the Sonic Amateur Games Expo’s absolute refusal to define what is and is not a Sonic the Hedgehog fan-game.

Some fangames sometimes I play where you can play as Sonic and Shadow (and switch between them)...

Sonic and Shadow (the colourful), Sonic World DX (the darker). Sonic World DX allows you to use different characters, from a single to three at the same time. It is also moddable and the first thing I did is giving Sonic Ryan Drummond's voice.

And being a casual gamer I keep losing :D There are a couple 2D games that i can'f find, they're somewhere in my PC.

Anyway, one thing I would see in a sonic game is being able to do more than just run, spindash and so on. I mean, I want something open world (but not empty like Frontiers, I mean an open word that is filled by town, places where characters live and can do whatever you want. I want that you can do things like in Legend of Zelda, Skyrim etc. I wonder, why Only Tails, Knuckles and Rouge can swim if also other characters (but Sonic) are able to swim?

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Remake (Windows, DN Games, 2010)

A fan-remake of the iconic text adventure - you can download it here, or download it bundled with a companion game, the original version and a trivia game here.

The game includes a very welcome Strag* Mode, which eliminates unwinnable states.

*Strag: person who is not a galactic hitchhiker

Nine people I'd like to get to know better

Tagged by @amethystsoda <.< This is my first time doing one of these Tumblr viral posts so tysm for getting me involved!!

===

Last Song: The real answer is "Pokemon OST I've listened to 100 times," but that's boring — even if it's a banger like ScarVi's Wild Area battle theme.

Instead let's share this very normal song from the end of a very normal playlist curated by a very normal friend about a very normal character:

This person may or may not become relevant later.

===

Fav Color: Yellow! Especially a lighter Daffodil kind of shade.

===

Last Movie/TV Show: Last movie was Disney's Wish (available now on Disney+, you see) during a VC yesterday. But I can tell you literally nothing about that movie other than the fact I was bored.

So go watch Space: 1999 instead. It's basically a British Star Trek show from the 70s with the most unnecessarily bangin' disco theme song you've ever heard in your life, and I'm obsessed.

===

Sweet/Spicy/Savory?: Historically a sweet guy, but I've been doing more spicy as of late. Lots of curries and chicken sandwiches and spicy pickles... Gimme more, please.

===

Relationship Status: Single and ready to mingle, as the kids say!

===

Last thing I web searched: The real answer is boring job hunt stuff. Instead, have one of my favorite clips I recently dug up related to taxes:

(For those who don't know, Brutalmoose is also the guy behind that "This time, I'm really gunna do it" image. Great videos all around. Been watching since forever.)

===

Current Obsession: PokeRogue. It has taken over my entire brain. And how could it not when you have such exciting revelations as:

Draco Meteor Fomantis.

Insane.

===

Your Tags (should you choose to accept it): @alchemicallymoon, @clearskeyes, @mossymothdragon, @kiliofdurinsline, @sheepishspirits, @ephemeraldew, @transientmelody, @tracc04, and a very relevant insane person @trybard

Like Ari, gunna throw a blank copy under the cut since mine was so busy! Thanks for reading <3

Are you by any chance familiar with Project: Eden’s Garden?

All I know is that it's a fan game inspired by Danganronpa that exists. (Not sure if it can be called a "Fanganronpa," because I'm not clear on whether it carries over anything from the existing DR franchise — continuity, mascots, trial system? Idk.) I also know that it's still in the early stages. Beyond that, I don't know anything. But from Googling to look at its trailer and some artwork, I can at least say it looks good. Very promising. ... though I've sure said that many times before.

Because in my cynical/pessimistic experience, 90% of fangan video series or DR fan games never actually reach completion — the team falls apart, life gets in the way, motivation dries up, or something along those lines. It's no different than so many WiP fanfics... and I should know, because I'm personally very much guilty of that. :P My point is just that many, many promising DR fan games/series have collapsed over the years, and it's deeply frustrating to never have any kind of completion/closure if you've following along with the project. So at this point, I tend to avoid them until they finish. And then they inevitably don't finish, so I have nothing to catch up on. :P Even in the rare case that they DO finish, there's the question of whether they're (A) in English and (B) playable at all for people who aren't, like, into coding or something. So.... yeah. I'm a party pooper; sorry.

I still am happy to support the existence of such projects, and I certainly hope that they come to fruition. Particularly since we're all starved for Danganronpa content these days. :P

I think only the two Korean "Danganronpa Another" games have ever actually been finished AND translated? So I do intend to (ideally) play those someday, but it's proven difficult to access and translate them. Ofc I want to do them in order, but the first one seems to have a lot of hoops to jump through to get it working, and thus far I've found the steps too difficult to follow. :( I might have to settle for watching it on a YouTube series or something. Which just ain't the same, y'know?

If there are any other fan games that have actually finished, though, feel free to let me know.

Punching Up Dev Diaries #2 - Making a Gay Game

When I first had the idea to make Punching Up, all I planned to do was take the characters from the original Animal Boxing game and put them in a game with third-person style boxing gameplay, like Fight Night or Ready To Rumble. However, I realized this original vision wasn't motivating me for multiple reasons. My first solution was to remove the female characters and focus on the male characters.

I chose to do this for one primary reason: I am a gay man with an attraction to boxing. The whole reason I got attached to the original game was because I saw a video of Apolo winning against the MC and thought he was super hot. With that particular attachment to the game, I had to find my work with the game to be just as stimulating.

Further along into the planning stage, I decided to take things a step further and infuse more gay content into the game's characters and plot. This was something I went back and forth with A LOT. In the end, however, I decided to go forward with this as it makes me the most happy. I'm not making any money off of this due to it being not my original characters/assets (which I'll make this a separate post later on, but there will be no option to back or financially support me making this game), so what matters most is making a game that makes me the most happy.

The gay content in the game will manifest only in dialogue and characters' individual storylines. By that, I mean some characters will be in "canonical" relationships with each other and have pre and post match dialogue that can be flirty. This will have no impact on gameplay and there will be no "gay" gameplay, like sex mini-games or other content like that. Any gay content will stay PG, but I may in the future create an XXX version once the original is done.

Sonic Classic (PC) - free fan game

Session: https://youtu.be/A_5ftcB3-rs

Well beaten Pokemon Tectonic and holy shit that was the most fun I had in a Pokemon game in years, even more fun then Clover, Radical Red, Insurgence and even Unbound. Now here are my pros and cons of the game:

Pros:

-You have a key item that generates leftover EXP candy from battles

-No HM's :D

-A much needed overhaul to the type chart, such as Bug now being supereffective against Fairy and Ice having more resistances then itself

-Frostbite replaces Frozen and unlike romhacks that has the former statues, you actually have a statues move just to put it on your target

-It has custom regionals and they're fun to use and have interesting designs

-Some retypings like Charizard being part Dragon and Dunsparce being part Ground

-New weather :D

-No more broken gameplay gimmicks, now all the megas are ether regular evos or part of an ability a Pokemon has

-Uses the Gen 4 and 5 soundtrack :D

-Various mons in general have been buffed with new moves and abilities, the Blaziken line now has an ability that makes it immune to Flying moves

-Natures, IV's and EV'S are removed and replaced with a customizable (in the Pokecenter) stat mechanic called Stylish Points, which as you can guess, is basically you deciding the stats of the Pokemon with limited points

-Breeding is gone completely :D

-Move relearner in Pokcenter for free :D

-Eggmoves are replaced with mentoring, which is basically a Pokemon learning another Pokemon's move as long as they can learn it

-Ability capsules and rare candies (now just called candies) are at the Pokemart at the very beginning

-And the best of all; Various luck based bullshit like Confusion and accuracy and evasion boosting hax has been removed. Confusion has even been replaced with a full time statues element called Dizzy, which suppresses the target's ability and lowers their defenses

Cons:

-The only way to make sure a random trainer is out of the route and not forcibly refightable anymore is to perfect them, as in, not having a Pokemon of yours faint in the battle, this really can get annoying

-The music for facing this game's grunts is just the regular trainer battle music for this game, which is very unfitting

-Hazards are still broken as shit, seriously, why is no one fixing this broken ass mechanic?

So yeah, this fangame is underrated and I wish more people knew about it.
