Game
Sonic: The Second Round (Formerly Round2.exe)






11 days ago

I finally found a way to fix the slowdowns in Last Chance Act 0.

Also, here are the full pics of Sonic and his doppelganger from the intro scene (the I AM GOD part), including their super forms and one from bloopers.

Now I declare this project FINISHED.


Also, some trivia:

  • We had some difficulties to find a good second form for Fake Sonic. We didn't want to make those lovecraftian forms, or full of eyes and teeth everywhere. Sometimes simple is better.

  • This incarnation of Fake Sonic is neither an entity, nor a demon. It is some kind of organic clone of the Blue Blur, created by using his DNA and the negative energies of the Chaos Emeralds.

  • His name is not Zalgo, X, Exetior, Exeller or anything related. He doesn't even have a name, being refereed as "???" in his dialogues. Just Fake Sonic, or Sonic's doppelganger, or Pink-Eyed Faker (referencing the eye inflammation known as pink-eye, or conjunctivitis).

  • There is no need to make a Round3.exe or a Third Round, since in this story, the faker is gone FOREVER at the end. It is the Second Round, but also the FINAL round. If I ever make a sequel, it will be a normal Sonic game. Something like "Sonic - After the Nightmare".

  • Despite looking like Sonic, the faker has some differences. Aside from the eyes, his quills are larger, his body is slimmer and his ears are shaped like horns.

  • "This game is not scary!" - It's not supposed to be.

The Legacy Version is here, for those who asked me to reupload the older releases.

Of course I won't keep the old stuff, like those old embarrassing dialogue arts and that poorly programmed boss fight, equally embarrassing.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.

Opening with bloopers, just for fun.

For those who didn't know yet, the original Round2.exe is back, fully updated and much better than before.

The full game is finally here.

Here's the Version 6.6.6 I promised a while ago, sorry for taking so long. I hope you enjoy it, and feel free to report bugs or any other issues.

Special thanks to ShidenGaster for helping me with this project.

I fixed an issue with Last Chance, which happened when you lose all lives and play again.

Also, here's some of the dialogue mugshots of Sonic and his doppelganger, if you wish to use them in articles of video thumbnails. (Some are unused in-game).

The final update is here. Check the article to see the changes.

All my thanks to all of you, for supporting this project ever since its first builds.

For now, I'll take a rest from game development. I have no plans for new projects.

A new update has been released. I've improved some of the dialogues, included changing "I was able to escape" with "I managed to escape". The alignment has also been improved.

Aside from that, not many major changes were made.
