We're aiming for a final release on November 1st, 2025!
I can't believe that I'm finally writing this:
YES, we've reached the completion of our remake of Sonic the Hedgehog for the amazing Amstrad GX-4000!

I played it last year on Benediction #4 thanks to Toto. It felt completely like a 16-bit game; it was just crazy that it still ran on a CPC! I look forward to seeing you on Benediction #5 this fall!

I've just uploaded a video of me attempting to draw a letter A inspired by the Rygar logo.

I've been enjoying your demo videos on YouTube.

In the British demos one you said you've got some stories about the scene (Bitmap Vandals etc.) in the UK.  I'd be really interested in seeing this!

À better ending more in the amiga/st release spirit. The tower isn't so well drawn. Even the C64 does have something good.

Could you supply please a native trainer, with infinite weapons, lives and a skip level key ?

It will be avalable in version 2. The same trainer designed by Daren White when pressing the VON keys. 
Note that pressing those keys no longer work because I had to overwrite this part of the code with my own, for switching between SFX and music.

Do you plan a better ending part ?

No, it's good enough IMO. What would you like?

I can release a version with the original graphics, it's not a big deal. I can understand some people are attached to the classic design.

The United Kingdom. Though if nobody local can do it I either take the risk on doing it myself, or look into international postage! Thanks.

Where are you based in the UK? I am in Hampshire. So you just want a 34 way header crimping to the ribbon cable and a jumper/switch for pins 11-12?

I want the music, but not the updated graphics? I like how it looks originally.

You want.. It's their improved design, not the restaurant menu.

I wish they would offer their own vision and experience of the game, because there are some great things to improve to not waste time doing what people want.

The new graphics look great, but can a version be maintained that preserves the original game's graphics too?

You have the original game for that.

I want the music, but not the updated graphics? I like how it looks originally.

having the option (even as a separate d/l) would be nice regardless.

The first download in this thread has the dsk of the full game with original graphics and music as far as I know.
