I'm impressed with how nice it looks. Though level 1 seems unpassable.

Shouldn't the sprite be modified? Sonic --> Zonik

Oh, crap. Zonik exists, and he has nothing to do with Zonk or the PCE universe.

[sourgrapes]Zonik was a juvenile, stupid name anyway.[/sourgrapes]

You'll find a hidden spring if you fall into the second sewer.

Oh, wait.

I'm thinking of JJ & Jeff.

Man, so far no one's mentioned my music in the demo, it must really suck! :D  Seriously though, I love the Greenhill Zone track, & it surprises me how nice it actually turned out, especially with it being a few year old, as I like to think my skills have improved somewhat since then.  If anything, it's an ego booster, which is good, as I tend to bash myself often & feel like I'm not capable. ](*,)

There are just 2 jewels to get.  The sign spins when you get to teh end of level1.  I don't think the demo goes any further than that though.

Paranoia, I would have commented on the music but I played it on Hugo so I wasn't able to hear the OGG audio.

I just downloaded this, and tried it in ME.  Everything looks sweet, and the music was just fine Paranoia! :)  Hopefully this will be completed.  I always loved Sonic, and to be able to play it on the Turbo, well thats just awesome.  Has anyone tried this in actual hardware?  I am thinking of doing just that. 

EDIT:  Just tried it in Turbo Engine, and it plays wonderful.

I don't think Sonic 1's parallax is even possible on the Turbo.

It works in theory, that's it!

Did you try the demo? At the very least, horizontally scrolling Sonic-style parallax could probably be replicated very similar looking. The lack of vertical scrolling of the parallax would be a positive to me, since it looks ridiculous in the original Sonic in particular. This demo is a work in progress by a single person and the results are already very impressive.

Level 2 of Ninja Spirit.  This is pretty close to 'faking' 2 independent bg levels.  The far trees in the back vs the trees in the front move both horizontal and vertically in parallax to each other.  Something like that would work fine in Sonic.  Beside I think Sonic for NeoGeo Pocket has no parallax at all even.  :oops:

Of course it's possible. It's just not as easy.
