Metal Sonic: ReBooted

I'm planning on making a prequel to the main Metal Sonic series, it will be my entry to the Competion05
As there are limits the game will be short yet sweet, also as I've learnt from my previous mistakes I'm sure this will turn out fine.
The story basically is Metal Sonic has been tasked by Eggman in finding the Chaos emeralds, learning that Sonic was on adventure somewhere (I dunno Barbados or somewhere).
Meanwhile Tails is scrounching around in a scrapyard mostly filled with Eggman's old robot's and machines, (can you see where I'm going with this yet?) only to come acoss one of the chaos emeralds, only to have it taken away by Metal Sonic, knowing Sonic isn't around Tails feels it is up to him to stop Metal Sonic from obtainig all the chaos emeralds, staring at the pile of junk before him, he hatches a plan!





Go to the GameML File sharing section to try the beta version!

This game will be a shooter only more basic than the original, for instance the only powerups available will likely only be the weapons, maybe different than before.
In each level you would different robots that tails fixed up, and then face tails himself in one of Eggmans old machines.
OH! Did I mention I was basing this off the Game Gear titles?

Oh any other ideas for this are welcome.

Looking good Good luck in the competition!

yeah, if I could squeeze it down somehow...

cool.

lifes? its uh lives.

You mean the life icons?
What about them?

He's saying you spelled lives as lifes.

yup

oh hell...

sorry. sheeesh.

No I meant as in" oh hell how did I miss that".
Sorry fooey, didn't mean to you offence

Screenshot!

cool!

Niice.

Yeah, I also fixed the "Lives" as well...eh heh

Guys I've just about have 2/3rds of the game finished, all I need to do now is just program the enimies and the final boss in the game.
Does anybody mind having a go at it "now" just to check if there a few bugs in the game I might have missed, you only be going against the first five bosses in the game.

woof. ds like.

wha?

The Beta version is now available in the GameML File sharing section.
Be sure to press F1 to view the controls.

no i don't think i will

As far as scrolling shooters go, this is pretty good! You should have the parts of the storyline come up between the levels. I didn't find any bugs, and I died on the first level When you play as eggman is pretty fun and quite different from alot of other games.

And Pikmon you're making less sense in every post

THE GAME HAS A DS SCREEN.

Pikky# Oooooohh, yeah that was one of the requirements of the game.

Carny# Yeah I'm planning in putting cut scenes
in the game, glad you enjoyed it .

cool

Was there any improvemants you think it needed?
