Project Needlemouse IS ACTUALLY SONIC 4

They are not sprites. Those are full 3D models.

Well, I'll just step aside, then. It's not what was said in an interview I recall reading, but for all I know, it could have changed, and I really don't care enough to bicker about it.

Sonic CD came out before Sonic 3.

'Sides who the fuck had a Sega CD.

Bought mine for PC. Gonna miss playing it after I upgrade though. It's a pretty fun game.

Tera, Sonic CD takes place between the events of Sonic 1 and Sonic 2 If I remember correctly.

KB: One of our goals was to make a gorgeous-looking 2D Sonic game. This approach allows fans new and old to see what a 2D Genesis-style game would look like today with modern graphics.

When it comes down to between what we're seeing and hearing right now and what they may have said at some point in the past I'm siding with the former.

Through the dark, to the light. It's a super sonic flight.

Gotta keep it goin'!

Haha! Nice try Sega, but you can't fool me!

You're going to force in some shitty gameplay mechanic at the last minute, aren't you?

Seriously, call it Sonic 4 all you like, I shan't be convinced.

As long as they remember:
1- No abusing bottomless pits.
2- Multiple paths all that allow you to continue, not a single one and a bunch more that are dead ends ( with bottomless pits ).
3- GOOD MUSIC. WITHOUT SINGING.
They're good to go.

Homing attack, I hear.

Good to know I'm not the only guy in the room with a "fool me thirteen times..." attitude.

I thought the gimmick was making it episodic a.k.a. selling it two levels at a time. That pretty much turned this from a "very off-chance maybe" to an "absolutely not" purchase. Why would I buy part of a platformer? At least Lost Winds had the decency to just be a short, stand-alone game before it got a sequel which was also a short, stand-alone game.
