Sonic 2 HD Is Cancelled

Before jumping to early conclusions, no. SEGA did not send a C&D message to Team S2HD. According to the official statement that was posted on Sonic 2 HD’s Facebook page, the project is cancelled because the team’s lead programmer has not provided them with any DRM-free version of S2HD and because he hasn’t communicated with them since the release of Sonic 2 HD Alpha. Moreover,  the lead programmer kept the source code for himself, making it impossible to the coded source material to be updated or used as a base for newer builds. Add to this that two key staff members that were chiefly responsible for the many animations, spritework, and overall polish seen in the demo have resigned from the project and you get the whole picture. Sadly, Sonic 2 HD is officially cancelled. Continue reading Sonic 2 HD Is Cancelled

Sonic Unleashed‘s levels are coming to Sonic Generations PC; new screenshots and video footage

SonicRetro members Dario FF, Twilightzoney, and Chimera are trying – for quite some time – to port Sonic Unleashed’s levels to the PC version of Sonic Generations. Today, the team showcased the fruits of their work as Sonic zips around locales like Mazuri, Empire City, Shamar, and the original Spagonia to name a few. The team has also managed to get collisions working on the stages, and they’ve been able to successfully import breakable objects and even the Global Illumination Ambiance lighting effects of the original stages so that they look like their original selves. Below you will find some new screenshots – as well as a new video footage – for it. Enjoy!
