Updates

Update #1:
V0.4.2 includes alot of bug fixes, improvements and other things:

- New music for title screen to avoid copyright claims
- A blue filter over the WCz background to make it easier to distinguish from the foreground
- Egg Phoenix moves slower up and down making jumping from platform to platform easier
- A slightly altered HUD
- FFz Mole badnik now easier to defeat
- Input font resized when the game is windowed
- Major bugfixes

There won't be anymore updates like this one for V0.4 because I still have to work on finishing the game in general.
So other problems won't be fixed until the next demo.

I'm also gonna show concept art every saturday on my youtube channel!

Ok so,
Level design has 2 main issues to me, some level gimmicks are quite annoying like the crabmeat-like enemies, the water that pushes you down and the fans that hurt you, and the collision on a lot of terrain is annoying to deal with like the buildings in the first zone because of the round roofs and how many platforms you have to jump through in some situations, and the stalls in the final zone which you have to awkwardly jump though to get by. outside these annoyances the level design is fine enough.

Egg Kraken is a really cool boss but the one for the second zone is really annoying to play it is easy to misinput a dropdash when wanting to jump and the missiles are really annoying to deal with, fire music tho, and other bosses are kinda whatever

Much shorter points
Level theming is really good I really like the second zone especially.
UI is visually great but a small nit-pick is that the box the life count is in should be a lot smaller
I had a glitch where i died in the metal sonic fight in the chase section and i just didnt respawn

Overall i think this demo is kinda rough but also it is a first demo so thats to be expected, if the project continues i can see it becoming great so please do continue working on it

Thanks for the feedback! I will try and fix these problems in the future.
 
I haven't played the game yet, but the presence of Black Doom alone (my favourite Sonic character) attracted me to your project, up to the point of me thinking about contributing to it in some way.
 
Hey Man
I love this fangame

If Shadow was in Sonic Spectre as a Playable Character
I was gonna add him at first but then I would have to play test the game more times, add alot to the save system. change his sprites and muuuuch more. And I just don't have the time for that. So sorry but he won't be playable.
 
I played the game. I did enjoy it, and bosses are promising, but I encountered a softlock when I died to Metal Sonic phase 2.

Also, to be frank, graphics (especially the Black Arms) would need good polish. I have experience with pixel art, would like to volunteer if you're up for that.
