Sonic Speed Simulator - Holiday Shadow and Holiday Cheer Amy! 🎄


Link: https://www.roblox.com/games/9049840490/Xmas-Sonic-Speed-Simulator

This picture melts my heart a little.

Yeah, especially since it's been revealed that this first week is already Christmas thing with Holiday Shadow and Holiday Cheer Amy.
Probably because the third and forth weeks are reserved for Sonic 3 movie, 2nd week could make way for the Christmas map you wished for. Hopefully.

I'm not going to hold my breath for a Christmas-themed map. I imagine if there is a schedule or budget to make a new zone and that zone must come out for December, then Sonic 3 will likely prioritize over Christmas, just as Sonic Prime prioritized last year.

I'm saying they could've had two seperate events happening along side one another, (if players time is just as important as players money to Gamefam, two events will double the playtime) but I doubt they will.

"Tokyo Mission" sounds better. Let's see which better it's being done between Sonic Speed Simulator and Sonic xShadow Generations.

Whenever it will be an adaption of the SXSG DLC or not, doesn't matter given both will still be to promote the movie.

Sovietborgs (SEGA Genesis/Mega Drive, Dreamcast) - Developer Interview from Playzine

PlayZine: How did the idea for Sovietborgs come about and who pitched it first?
Retro Sumus, Chui: I had the idea for Sovietborgs quite a while ago, the main concept anyway: uchrony,
what if the USSR won the Cold War, but at the same time throwing movies and shows from the 80s into the mix like, say, Rambo or Terminator. From there, we began to give shape to what we’re trying to do, using a comedic tone so no one takes it too seriously, basing the gameplay and overall feel on games we enjoyed like The Chaos Engine, or Cannon Fodder, and using pre-rendered graphics not unlike those seen on Donkey Kong Country or Vectorman, and so on.

And as a follow-up question, will Sovietborgs be as you envisioned from the beginning, or has it developed into something other than the first ideas?
Abel: I think it’s still pretty close to what we conceived, other than whatever technical limitations we may have found here and there, but we were mostly aware of them.
Chui: Perhaps little things like, there can’t be so many big enemies in this area of the stage due to memory / fps constraints, or we need to find an alternative for this or that animation that we thought would look better in motion, but ...
