Well I hadn't been able to get a lot done in the past week, but I did manage to make the docks in Green Flower City look halfway decent. I didn't add any boats though because I'd need an entire boat tileset for that, and if I had that on then I would have problems with the rest of the area.
Anyway, I just need to add a few more things to it, then fix up the rest of the area around it, then give Burger Bonanza a paint job (Speedy said it's pink interior was hideous.), Get that hotel made, then I should probably move onward in the story. Although I didn't finish making the NPC's. I only have 3. And it's a big city, compared to most places in RPG games. Green Flower City lives up to its name.

Come to think of it, Green Flower City might end up being the largest town area in the game.

Hey..That actually might work. Thanks a lot.
Of course, I'll have to wait until the computer's working before I can do any of that. I wasn't able to copy it over the network recently, so I'm stuck not working on the game.

I just realized something.
Now that my computer is fixed..Recording isn't as slow anymore. Which means...
I can finally make that Gameplay video! Yes! YES! Once I record Gizmo's completion video, I'm gonna get started. But first, I have a few things that I need to straighten out around Green Flower City.
So here are the videos you should expect:
Gizmo Completed More updates Splice The Hedgehog Gameplay Possibly something else, we'll see.
Stay tuned!

Description "Here it is, as promised. Sorry that I'm nearly 2 weeks late. My main computer had gone down the entire of last week. So I was restricted from doing anything on my game.
But now that it got fixed, It runs much faster while recording. So that means I can record the Gameplay videos. I've also managed to get it to run a bit faster in Green Flower Zone. Just to the point to where it's bearable. The map was too large. That combined with the laggyness that the computer had been going through, It was just terrible.
Next, though, Small Updates and Tests 2! Stay tuned!"

I'm glad that I got Gizmo done.
Hmm..Let me think. Who should be next? I should probably finish Crystal. She shouldn't take too long.
I know YOU have to finish Tab. At least get her charset done. That's one thing that still has pieces of her beta version.
Anyway, The computer is acting a bit screwy. But I should be able to post the next video sometime today.

"Please View with Annotations on.
This is it everyone. It's finally here. I finally finished recording all of this. It took me a while, lemme tell ya. I had some problems here and there, so please try not to mind the quality changing occasionally. I had to switch over to a different computer for some of the recording.
After this, I'm most likely going to go and give the final spruce ups to Splice's house. And then I'm gonna finish Smash's house.
Also, There are a lot of pause breaks in this. You'll notice that almost every time that I save, the video fades out and back in. That's when I save and stop recording to either serve as a check point or so I can do something else."

Sorry everyone, I haven't gotten around to posting up the rest of the videos. Here, Take a look at them all!
"Here I'm doing a bit of grinding. In a way, you can consider this place a dungeon of its own. Who'd a thought it? Your home town becoming a whole dungeon. Guess where you fight the boss?"
"We continue to hurry and find everyone and help them out. Things are looking bad, but we can't give up."
"After a crushing defeat, I realize my mistake. I had forgotten that in all my other playthroughs (that I haven't recorded) I ALWAYS stock up on items till I have at LEAST 15 1ups and Chilidogs. Fortunately they aren't hard to come by. But you still have to earn em. And so I begin my Grinding for a Rematch."
"It's time to try again. We fight and succeed in getting our friends to safety. And what's this? Tab's not going anywhere. She's going to help find everyone else! Our first party member to stay!
"With Tab at our side, We fight off seemingly the last flame thrower machine and save Crystal. This one is stronger than the last, taking longer to demolish. But we manage to succeed, and are ready to escort her to safety. She's pretty useless in this battle, but once you equip her with some better stuff, She can at least do something. She's mainly so slow because she's very under level. (Starts off at level 1, while everyone else starts off at at least level 5.)"
"Now that we go back, There's the last type of save point, the Boss save point. Looks like it's finally time to face the big guy. However, We're not ready yet. So now begins more grinding, level upping, and shopping. And then, What's this? A strange robot in the northern district..."
"Uh oh, it looks like there are two more Flame throwers that we haven't dealt with. It's about time we put an end to all of this."
"Hey Look! It's Sonic! And if Sonic's here, then that means..Eggman is here too. (obviously) But now Eggman's stepped down from high above to help wreak havoc himself. But we challenge him right in the act, in an attempt to put a stop to all of this.
This guy's tough. For a first boss, He's hard. He takes the skills of one of the Flame Thrower mini bosses and buffs it up. Not to mention his bulk of HP (and taunts). You really have to conserve your items since you have to fight TWO battles in a row."
"The invasion has been stopped, the city has been saved...but at what cost? We stopped Robotnik from burning the city to the ground, but some houses look like they can't even be repaired. (one house even fell down sideways.)"
As the last video stated, That's all folks. Until next time.

An idea just sprung to mind about Mount Mobius.
I think I could use that place for another side quest.
As for Zatic's cameo, I'm thinking he will challenge you to a fight to see if you're worthy of such powerful items. You can't just get something so great for free-Especially when there's TWO of them.
So yeah, that will be something to look forward to.

INTRODCUTION
This is my review of the fan-game "Splice The Hedgehog" created by Smash The Echidna. Spoilers may be given out due to this being a full review of the game in all. If you haven't played before i suggest turning your head.
TITLE.
INDENTINDENT Okay, I start up the game Splice the hedgehog. A very nice looking title screen. Though its all the same type of pillow shading, it still keeps it's impressive look due to the fact that it's original.
BEFORE BLACK ROSE.
INDENTINDENT The story has a very nice intro and an ominous introduction, though it took WAY to long for the next thing to happen. I felt like after the the text box dissapeared I was waiting at the screen, watching the house for longer than I should. Anyway then he wakes up and starts his routine. The events and sounds are well shifted, moved around and used. The Black rose orphanage. Hidden very well. I found it finally. Now i stay before it infront of a save point.
BLACK ROSE.
INDENTINDENT Okay i go right, I see a girl and 2 thugs. I lost the battle my 1st time around. the second time i won with 8 HP left so spare...phew! Maybe just a TAD too difficult. not by THAT far though. Then the egg carrier arrives. Very Very Laggy, I don't think I can play any further but I will try. Anyway i take 2 steps forward and I get confronted by Badniks. Lets keep in mind that i still have 8 HP left. I die and i have to start over, The same thing keeps happening this is as far as I can possibly go, though i get a little farther when I buy things.
GRAPHICS: The graphics are mostly RTP So i will skip that. Splice is a recolor of sonic. though more of the original ones i think. And another thing is that none of the art styles seem to mesh. and the Splice sprite when he runs up is definatly bad because he looks like he's really haulin' it, as the other directions are just walking.The SFX and scenes are well made so I will give this a 7
MUSICVery well used for scenes light hearted to Intense. 9
GAMEPLAY: It gets boring if no one does anything. Fun though. The fact that the game doesn't save ot even tell you why you cant if there is a reason really kills it though.7
APPEAL: It makes you really want to play it because the story is engaging and the cutscenes are brillantly executed, 8
OVERALL: This game has a few kinks it needs to knock out but i feel even better about my chara playing an extra boss. 8
You have a lot of work cut out for you, but I think you can do it. :)
You know I never actually read the full review. Must've slipped my mind. Here is my response to it.
A lot of work was put into that Title Screen. I am deeply grateful towards Sykog and Miles for helping me.
So sorry about that waiting problem. It actually is longer than it should be, I was really just waiting for the music to fade before having the scene move onto inside. Although after several bug tests, I found waiting there to be quite a nuisance myself.
I have now made it a little easier to find out where you're supposed to go. Read the road signs a little while going North-West. And once you get out Splice's house, a very short scene showing you which road to take plays.
Yes, the battle is difficult. I lost my fair share of times myself on my first playthrough. Fighting alone is hard. Although now it's a little easier since you have the (somewhat secret) option of getting Tab in your party for the fight.
I should have had it so that you get healed after the battle. I'm gonna do that next chance I get.
Well, I did combine Sonic charsets with half Earthbound, half RTP tilesets. Such a stretch is pretty large. I suppose if I added a bit more shading to some things, it will mesh a little better. A lot of the earthbound stuff lacks in the shading department. As for Splice, His general looks are much better on the eyes than they USED to be, lemme tell ya. He has much longer quills than his charset shows, but I couldn't get them long enough due to the limited space in the charsets. You can see it a little better in battle, although I think they could use to be a bit longer in some areas. Also, Walking up was probably the most complicated part of his charset. I could try to redo it, though.
What exactly do you mean by "The fact that the game doesn't save ot even tell you why you cant if there is a reason really kills it though."? Please elaborate a little more on that.
Yes, I agree. There are quite a few things that need to be worked out. I will work them out in time. In fact, next chance I get I'm gonna try to fix up the things you mentioned here, if I hadn't already done it. Thank you for the review, it has helped a lot.
