This is a great game so far, but there are a few ideas or suggestions you can implement in the new update.
One thing I wanted to mention is about the game's HUD, the design is nice, but it could be a little smaller in size.
Next thing is a minor idea, but maybe possibly add shadows underneath Sonic's feet so it could look like he's on ground. (same applies for other characters).
At Stormy Perecinet Act 2, the act transition looks a little odd with the boat gliding it first before the water. Note the ground spot magically disappears, with the background not scrolling down to the water.
The boss here looks cool, but one visual feedback I would give is to make him slightly tilt to the side when you hit the blue ball on him, so it has more a animation impact that he has tooken damage from it.
For the cutscenes, it looks nice for the most part, but a minor issue I had was the fact their mouth wasn't moving along with the dialogue. They do blink and such but I think it would've looked better when they talk with their mouths as the dialogue progresses. In this screenshot Lailah seems to be placed a little too far onto the ground, maybe move her up a bit, and it'll look better.
As for Peaceful Glance Zone, it is cool, but I wish Sonic's skateboard had more design to it.
As for this character, the design is nice, but animation feedback I would give is that her wings always moves regardless of the actions she is performing as her wings stop at random times. This can be done by making a separate sprite for her wings so it will stay animated along with her at all times.
This zone looks cool, just maybe pan the camera to the right so the bottom-less pit will be less shown.
That's all of the feedback I have, the only other major issue is the engine as it is janky.
Sonic center's himself when curling into a ball right when he gets hit. (sometimes he will go locked in air and you move him left and right for a brief moment, maybe pause the engine and make him properly fall and then starting back the engine again).
Sometimes his animation keeps going when you press a specific action (or the jump button) for a brief time before switching to that animation.
His spin dash sometimes doesn't use the correct direction.
The Ages Team Logo in the title screen could be a little smaller to be less distracting.
But other than that, great game! Hope to see more from this in the future.
It's me, Scratchuel21439new! Hi! If you don't trust me, then say for proof on Scratch!
what extension do you use for the effects, like the blur transition in the settings?
I was going to make a review of this but I got softlocked at the beginning of level 2. Day ruined.
Are you by any chance gonna add more screenshots to the page?
Heaven Saga is an unofficial, non-profit Sonic game created and developed by the Ages Team. It is associated with the Christianity religion, and it is based on Anime and the classic retro 16-bit and 32-bit era games.
IMPORTANT INFO
Let me very clear on this one; this game is associated with the Christian religion. This was made as a counterpart response of an existing Sonic 3&K hack called "Hellfire Saga". So, you will probably find some things in here that would be silly or unusual for a Sonic game, but that was kind of the point. This game was meant to be a little dark while maintaining a source of sweetness from the good side.
We would really appreciate it if you don't use extreme profanity or mockery if you are planning to make a video about this. Making fun of small things (like the characters) is fine, but don't use extreme mockery of the religion itself because it will be offensive to some people. There have been already 2 YT videos (understandably they were playing the older, less polished version) that does ridicule the game and one of them uses extreme language and mockery. They're quite old now, so doesn't really matter anymore, but still please go a bit lighter on the jokes, that is if you are planning to make a commentary video.
Of course, we don't want to force religion down to the throats of other people. Not everyone is religious, so this game is mostly meant for people who are religious or who have no issue with what this game is associated with. There will also be biblical references, and keep in mind that the entire story in this game is made up; it's fictional.
This game is NOT for everyone, so play it at your OWN RISK.
Wanted to play the old version? I archived it on Cocrea: https://cocrea.world/@Papichi05/HeavenSaga
Be warned though, the old game has a lot of weird scenarios, so please don't call me out for them.
The Guardian Angels of Heaven have been protecting souls for millions of years. One of them was assigned to meet up with Sonic the Hedgehog due to his excessive fighting with demons and lack of rest.
While Sonic nearly has no problem with fighting demons, the Guardian Angle, named Lailah, offered Sonic to temporarily visit Heaven to sleep for a long period of time to gain eternal strength.
While Sonic accepted Lailah's offer and slept in Heaven, the demons were not able to tolerate Sonic's victory as they demanded revenge against him, by searching and obtaining the Choas Emeralds. And so, Sonic's battle and the war between good and evil continues as the story evolves.
