Welcome to Sonic Robo Blast G!
What? |
|---|
This level pack is a recreation of an old SRB2-inspired fan game created around 2008 in Game Maker. The fan game, dubbed SRBG2, was shown off and reviewed in a video by FoxBlitzz/Blitzzo, where it was criticized for its rather mediocre quality. You can watch that video here.
Why? |
|---|
For years, I was curious how these levels would've played out in SRB2. I wanted to download the fan game and try to recreate the levels as best as I could.
Unfortunately, SRBG2 seems to have been lost to time. What this means is that I had to recreate the levels using the video as reference. I painstaking went through the video frame-by-frame (in specific spots) to make sure I was getting most of the details right. Even then, creative liberties had to be taken since the video didn't go through all of the areas in the levels.
Additional Information |
|---|
Many of the assets were taken from version 1.09.4 of SRB2, since that was the current version at the time of the fan game's release. Some of the music was taken from Sonic Megamix, since that's what the fan game used (based on the tiny clips of music I could actually hear in the video).
I mostly made this just for fun, but also as practice for Zone Builder. Hopefully, later down the line I'll actually make levels that aren't just recreations of existing levels from other games.
Since this is a recreation, many of the odd quirks and inconsistencies are deliberate. For example, you'll find a couple of textures that have been stretched to fit a wall's area.
