Some progress on porting over the Director's Cut features to the PC port of (Saturn) Sonic 3D Blast:
- Sonic's improved movement is here, along with the improved camera.
- New flicky mechanics (bouncing HUD icon, flashing icon on screen edges, flickies act as a shield, etc.)
- The score and time are now on the HUD.
- Super Sonic is here as well, with his behaviors ported over (Power Sneakers, Homing Attack, Invincibility)! Just like Director's Cut, this doesn't use a new sprite and is a palette swap, but the great Jon Burton (
@JonTt) just mentioned that (while he was building Director's Cut) someone had sent him a new sprite for Super Sonic. There wasn't enough memory to add in the new sprite, but he has offered to dig it up, which is very exciting!
- Many other features from Director's Cut.
Not all new features (like the Crab Badnik in Rusty Ruin) have been ported over yet.
Please forgive the bad gameplay, I recorded it playing on a keyboard over a remote session on airport wifi.
