Let's talk: good sonic fan games

[midori]

sub title: while we all wait for this gem to be unlocked, shall we?
Before I start: I haven't found the Off-Topic sub forum, so I'm posting it here, if that's ok.

(I ain't gonna talk about Sonic World, Sonic Utopia and the infinite Sonic Blitz 3D games, because you all know them already. But if you want to, nobody is gonna stop you.)

I've found another two great fan games, both are... rather old, but they're still being updated,so they're still fresh. As your prince. in bel air.

Their names are "SRB2" (Sonic Robo Blast 2) and "Sonic Gather Battle" (Also known as "SONICvsLF2").

SRB2 (Or Sonic Robo Blast 2 if you prefer)

The first one, SRB2 runs on a doom legacy engine (so it's pretty lightweight), but it's also very, very replayable and customizable (just open the console and add the .wads if you want, or make an autoexec.cfg with all the wads list) - You can add characters, levels and gamemodes I think.

Here's a gameplay of someone I found on youtube. (it's a very old gameplay, to show how nice it is in co-op)

You can download this game at this game's website, srb2.org

THE Virus ONE

Is a RAT-Type of Virus that you shouldn't download nor play because it is known for messing up with your pc, closing itself or windows that contains "gather hacks" (or "mod" or "cheats"). also, it appears that with the newer updates [because it's still being updated,despite what you say] it now drops files onto the SysWOW64 and System folders. As someone that studies viruses behaviour for a while this is what usually ransomware\adware does. (the adware part being for how the game stoers info).
here are some useful links, please take some time to read, it's important. [We're documenting everything about this game, and we're also hoping that the unistaller comes out quickly.]

also the game is VM-aware and won't run under any sandboxed condition [as for what I know now]

As if the Sonic Fanbase didn't had a bad enough reputation this guy comes here pretending he's some sort of god because he can code. Guess what? You can't.

Dyspo made a video explaining the situation:

THE ACTUAL SECOND ONE

Well yeah... that sucked, but here's another game that was pretty good, in my opinion:
it is called "Sonic Utopia", and it's not open world, it only has pretty big levels, it's a concept that's lovely, because some 2D Sonic games had pretty big levels. I love this concept, I hope to see some updates in the future, right now is just Green Hill Zone, and inside that level there are two smaller zones, one being the Labyrinth zone and another that's a... uh...

Hope you enjoyed it, I'm quite hyped for Sonic Mania. As I'm hyped for Drift Stage.

Since you didn't mention them, I'll go ahead and list out Sonic Before The Sequel, Sonic After The Sequel and Sonic Chrono Adventure, three amazing Sonic fangames by Lake Feperd.

Thing on SRB2: The Online is still active and recently they patched some network crashes. Hype for V2.2.

[Ikagura]

I love SRB2. Too bad I've only discovered that game in 2015

[Cheese]

Once they add slopes and slope physics in 2.2, I feel like Sonic Robo Blast 2 will almost certainly be the best 3D Sonic game, whether fan made or official.

Indeed, especially for the price of free, I'd give them a shot

Only the greatest

Personally I highly recommend: Emerald Ties (old demo too), The Emeralds Awakening, Sonic vs Darkness TNR, Project Survival, Time Twisted and Quick Step Challange. I think SRB2 is the first Sonic fan game I ever played.

Some good ones here!
Nobody mentioned StH: Time Attacked, it was a pretty fun fan-game.

♥♥♥♥ no
Sonic Gather Battle is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ piece of DRM ♥♥♥♥
I've made a whole video explaining all about this

At the time I wrote that the game wasn't yet known for that. (Still, it appears that the @sshole has been messing up with that game since the 1.X branch of updates. so probably ~2013)
Second, I already know about the DRM on that p.o.s., I'm studying C++ right now to help the SSRG, SGB Discord guys and SFGHQ guys that are working hard on making that unistaller, while that p.o.s. keep sprouting updates that are more and more dangerous. Last updates adds some files into the SysWOW64 and System folders, no games ever do that, only adwares and spywares. Leemena dan is a damn idiot that's also an hypocrite because he used stolen sprites from Spriters Resources, and only made ONE (1) custom sprite. Also, DRMing a Fangame is a clear violation of the TOS, or something you shouldn't do anyway, because SONIC is a trademark of Sega and Sonic Team. Not leemena's. I really hope Nintendo, Sega, Capcom or Konami C&D this guy (Because Rockman X, Mario, Ichigo and Solid Snake are into the game.) I also hope that the authorities bring this p.o.s. to the justice, because this is also illegal, there was no EULA nor anything that said that he could mess up with the pc if I used that software. Also, the engine ain't even his, because that's just a LF2 total conversion. Not even the idea is his, because sonic was already added into another LF2 back in 2003. but yes, I'm delething SGB\SonicVsLF2 from the original post. thank you for reminding me that this post existed.

I'm also editing the original post to add more fan games

[Ikagura]

Darn I am really disapointed that someone did that with their fangame...

Now Sega will be more focusing on the fangames and this will lower Sega's trust toward the fans...

Sonic Utopia looks cool. I have the demo too. I am escpecially looking forward to the Unity remake of New Sonic as not only will I get to play my other second favourite Sonic game on PC (the first is the Dreamcast SA2 and SA1 1998 together), but it aims to fix the glitches and unfinished state of the majority of the game.

EDIT: The following screenshots are from the two free demos of Sonic 2006 PC that were released.

I love those games! They are like Sonic Mania as I truly imagined it, no rehash (well, aside from music in CA), pure newness. And music in BTS and ATS is GLORIOUS.
Every fan of classic Sonic should play them. No exceptions, no excuses.

Sorry but Sonic 06 is unfixable
