Indie-Game "Freedom Planet"

Archive: 3 posts


Hey Sozo here. I just wanted to spread news of what looks to be imho a very awesome game that is in development atm.

So before I talk any more about it. i'll post this nice video from youtube showing off some of the early demo.

I am really excited for this game. it has almost everything I enjoy best in a game. Cute animal-folk characters. cool 2D platforming. fun silly gimmicks like motorcycles. A cute 2D art style... Yup great stuff.

And before anyone asks. Yes this game is inspired by Sonic. Even though they are trying to be as original within that concept as possible. It actually started out just as a fangame but became much more later on. But for me it being inspired by Sonic is way past cool since I am a super crazy big Sonic fan afterall. And before anyone else asks. Yes Sega knows about this game as the team who are making it told Sega about it just to make sure it was fine. Sega said it is indeed fine from what I know anyways. Again before anyone asks, it is not a Sonic ripoff fyi. it is just inspired by Sonic is all. So don't get the wrong idea about it ok?.

I REALLY hope this game does well and becomes a new popular game series. :3 ...There really is not enough fun animal-folk games out there. let alone hardly any that have a female main cast. *mew

So Yeah. I hope they get all the support that they'll need. Also here is a link that shows where they been working on the project since the start of it. *mew

The gameplay looks pretty fast and fluid, better than other platformers I've seen/played recently.

The playable characters seem well animated and have an interesting colour-palette but I can't say the same for the background. Compared to the backgrounds in the Sonic games this is inspired from it looks kinda bland. How many people are working on this?

I would tell you except I am not sure... from reading the message board It seems there is mostly around 3 main people working on it with some extra helpers doing smaller things. *mew

BTW they are getting a new helper or 2 soon to help add more detail to the graphics. so the backgrounds & ETC should look little better later.
