It looks like Sonic Rush so that's a good thing.

Duuude! How did you get this?

Actually looks quite good. Not really a fan of the music though.

How long do you think this video will stay up? Thanks for uploading!

There's only one explanation for having this footage. 
 
Wizardry.

Levels look alright. They really should have sorted out the amount of tunes playing at the same time cause it really screws the groove up.

Game looks good, but it still needs work.

There is something really weird about the way Sonic moves. Its almost like there isn't enough animation.

I dunno. I'm still not sold on the new character model and animations. The whole thing just seems antiquated. I know I'll be playing it though. I feel ashamed of myself.

Looks pretty decent.   There's still some animations I hate though.

His legs are fucked up.....
 
It's like he's doing a moonwalk.... But going forward?

I think the game could benefit from more speed, to me it seemed like Sonic was actually a little slow, but maybe that's just me. Other than that it looks quite good so far.

It looks alright. I could nitpick about the animation a bit if I wanted but main gripe is the music... just the way the instruments sound and how the melody isn't really catchy at all. Think even games like Sonic Unleashed had a catchier soundtrack than what I've seen here so far.

wow. well i guess if you want more sonic like the old sonic. looks like fun.

Looks ok.

There you go, full 1080p :D

Hopefully they'll do something to the speed/stop you for no reason thing, because Sonic is all about speed. I actually enjoyed those parts of Sonic: Unleashed, where you were normal sonic,  I thought they pulled that of and made a pretty good Sonic experience. I guess I could just buy the old games, but I would like to play a overall great NEW Sonic game.

Yeah I started playing this when I got my hands on it, then I thought something about it felt wrong so I went back and played Sonic 1 and 2 again (still need to finish off 3 and knuckles :S lol) and IT definitely feels much more interrupted .

Theres 4 zones not including the "special" ones which imo are awful. and one of the levels in zone two is literally called "100,000 score challenge" is a giant mini pinball machine, and is totally awful, unless you just do one action over and over for nearly 8 minutes you have no chance of finishing it.

Since this is made by Dimps, and only one out of their five previous Sonic games was bad (Sonic Advance 2), I'd say that this has an 80% chance of not totally sucking. Pretty good odds for a Sonic game on home consoles these days.

It looks promising although I agree that the running animations could be done better. He looks like he's moonwalking forward (as someone previously pointed out). The homing attack is a nice new ability to his arsenal. I'm just wondering if that makes this the easiest main Sonic game out of all of them.

Before I start lemme say that I will probably play this entire game. And I will probably love anything that tries to do 2d Sonic. This is just me being an old school sonic fanboy. You have been warned.

***HUGE DORK NITPICK ALERT*** Why would you put the homing attack (and light dash?) in a 2d sonic game? Those were contrivances to deal with the imprecision of attacking dudes in a 3d world. It allowed them to do cool stuff with bosses in that realm, but when you say you're taking it back to a Sonic 1/2 style adventure, you shouldn't put that stuff in there. So much of these levels are broken up with you running, hitting a straight up bumper and then having to homing attack forward. It worked fine in the confines of Sonic Unleashed, since the 2d motion was only a fraction of the gameplay. Here, it's pretty weak. If you want to avoid the idea that Sonic isn't just a baby hold right game, you should probably get rid of the automatically kill a dude attack.

Definitely looks like something more for the old-school Sonic fan, so that excludes me out.
 
The graphics are great, but the sound design really ruins the feel of the game. 
 
Really makes it feel like a cheap Flash game instead of a serious competitor to NSBWii and Megaman 9 or 10.

If you could create a bunch of levels with interesting mechanics and design, you would have a good Sonic game. Add in cool special stages and bosses and the game gets better. "

 
 

Hate to double post but the first 2 zones are up now in proper 720p, no more camera!

Confirmed new Sonic game continue to suck.
