That's why I don't want to fault anyone working on the game. One more thing I want to add: while it wasn't that big of an issue, the rain in Granite Act 2 lagged my game quite a bit, though I'm unsure if it's because of my own hardware not being powerful enough. Sound effects drowning out the music isn't that big of an issue (although proper sliders for both music and SFX instead of a master volume option would be preferable), but some of them are just too loud, namely the spin dash, the fireworks when defeating an enemy, and the waterfalls. Lastly, the wall breaking SFX is both delayed and sounds low quality, like it was taken from an inaccurate Mega Drive emulator. Then there's also my biggest issue, the mixing is BAD. Would it be too much to ask for an option to switch it back? That second boss fight was great by the way.ĭecided to make an account just to comment on some grievances I had while playing the game:įirst on the topic of sound: while I find the new tunes great, I don't get why the song for Sunrise Gate had to be redone, as I personally find it one of the most catchy and iconic tracks as far as Sonic fangames go. I did try to reach out to him quite a while ago to see if he had any lossless FLACs of those Sunrise Gate tracks, it seems he may not be easy to get ahold of.

If possible, I'd love to see his tracks incorporated into this game in some way. The new music for Sunrise Gate isn't bad by any means, but the original soundtrack by Great Lange is a large part of what made the original Demo so iconic for many people, including myself. The wrecking ball in Granite Zone does not contribute to Link chains, The spinning fireballs in Granite Zone Act 2 only seems to have collision sometimes, the title card for Granite Zone Act 2 is incorrect, some slope collisions cause extreme acceleration which is a little jarring but still feels good either way. I'm sure that others may have brought this up, but I did notice a few bugs and quirks.

Really good demo! It's great to see Overture come back after many years.
