hey everyone it's darby from blue
television games today i'm checking out
sonic window zone i found this over on
sonic retro and apparently you can play
sonic levels on your desktop i tried
this initially with my super ultra wide
mega monitor whatever the heck it's
called and it did work but it ran a
little slow because the monitor is so
huge so i actually had to get into my
display settings and change it to a
1080p and i think it's going to work now
let's try it here so if i go down to the
shortcut here for window zone and i
click it boom
no updates great
and we get a little sonic that appears
at the top of the screen
now we're playing sonic on my desktop
fantastic
we could fall down to the bottom
we could spin dash we can push windows
with them which is really cool
uh let's get rid of the window though so
now we can run along all our desktop
shortcuts mine are a little messed up
because i hit them all in a folder to
make my screen a little clearer well you
might have noticed this hilarious sonic
xl background my friend curtis made for
me for a thumbnail
no goomba safe from hungry sonic
uh we need to make something a little
more appropriate all right let's head
over to the
spriter's resource one of my favorite
sites sonic can hang out at the top
while we do this this is just so cool
hey sonic could you move the window over
a little bit for me uh he's not really
pushing it quite right but he's kind of
pushing it
i'm not sure what's going on with that
all right let's head over to genesis
section and sonic the hedgehog we need a
good background uh probably green hill
zone would work just fine let's copy
this image all right before we head to
photoshop let's open up a sprite
i love that in the corner it says 10
minutes and two lives
it's taken me a while to do all this
all right yeah we're gonna paste this in
here we don't need a ton because it's
gonna be for the desktop or whatever
[Music]
there we go ah come on after all that
work
we still have a little white line over
there
boom it's not perfect there's some weird
stuff going on with these clouds i'm
aware but it looks pretty cool
all right let's bring sonic back
okay so what else can we do with this
now we have a decent background it's
looking pretty sonicky what else can we
do with this well there's a lot of cool
things we can do first off we can create
random objects
uh let's create
50 objects that sounds
like it'll be awful let's do it oh my
gosh
okay
so as you can see here we got some
enemies now
[Music]
boom we could take out the enemies uh we
can actually get a checkpoint
uh we'll need to make a goal for our uh
level here oh my gosh
there's so many things on the scoop it's
still running pretty smooth so far we
have no way to really go up so you know
if you can't go up one way you can go up
is by you know making a window let's
open up the old calculator there we go
we got ourselves a nice little
calculator i like it we have some
springs once things are on the screen
you can move them around too
so now we have a spring we can go over
here we can be like kaba roi
that gets us up to about there can i get
up to this platform
not quite
it needs to be a little lower maybe like
there's
oh we had it oh oh we had it again and
we had it okay so now we're up to here
cool we can have another platform here
and it goes like this
i could probably make this jump yeah
look at that we're almost on top of the
calculator can get an extra life
boop
this is so weird all right let's go with
10 new objects every
four seconds
that should be fine right sure i want to
get on top of the calculator one way we
can do that oh my gosh there's a lot of
objects now this is a droppy platform so
if we jump up to it quickly we should be
able to get on top of the calculator
don't hit the spike oh
we died
[Music]
all right things are getting crazy now
we might have too much stuff on the
screen well there's like a dragon thing
there's a giant motorboat
does the calculator still work let's see
uh 69 times 420
equals 28 180. that's good to know all
right now that we see basically what we
can do here
maybe it's time we're trying to make a
little level see what we can do have
some fun you know uh oh my gosh i can't
quit
okay okay okay everything's fine let's
get sonic back all right sonic is back
he's on the bottom of the screen
i liked the calculator let's open the
calculator back up
oops i just smashed sonic again wait
wait i think
in the options we can have infinite
lives first things first we land from
the beginning of the screen when we
start
right okay let's close windows and we
open window zone up and we land here
right in the middle uh we'll just type a
random number here 69 it's a number a
lot of people seem to like
let's put sonic in the middle cool let's
open a picture up to kind of block them
in
how about this picture of sunkee dancing
that sounds fun sunky dancing
is pretty cool let's see how small we
can make it
it's about the smallest we can make it
cool and okay there's the catch that we
could push that over
no we fall through
whoa how did i fall through that
shouldn't i push that and now we're
pushing it okay okay well let's say to
keep sonic from pushing we're gonna need
some spikes we need to create some
objects okay so come down to the bottom
create random objects um let's create
[Music]
uh we need a good bunch of objects to
start with here let's start with 30
objects
boom
whoa well all it made was that enemies
all the name is enemies so put some
spikes over here
spikes keep sonic from doing things i
wish we had more of those particular
spikes but we don't let's create
35 objects create
cool
we're hoping for more spikes and we got
some you can't go manually through and
pick the exact ones you want um somehow
i think if we hit x
we can
shuffle through the different things
crab meat bumpers big ring advanced
speed boosters life monitors mega moto
bug metal sonic i have an idea so if we
open up windows zone
mega motel
i think we can open these hold on
hold on let's see how easy it is to mod
this
[Music]
i'm not sure what we did but let's just
try it
okay
okay random objects
30
boom
look sunky's there
it worked
sunky took the mega moto spot and he
just kind of scoots around
we got sunkee in the game
it's a it's a win
wait do those big rings teleport them so
i put this big ring here
he teleports the other okay we're
learning how all this stuff works let's
go see if we can defeat sunkee real
quick
before he gets through the ring
come on sucky you're going down no
it's really hard to defeat sunki
[Music]
all right so we got the basics down we
modded in sunki let's go ahead and
create a level and see how it goes
[Music]
[Music]
so i've made by level
maybe as we defeat some enemies things
will start running a little smoother you
can see your things get a little slow
once uh you put too much stuff on
everybody got carried away let's go
okay we got some rings things are going
really slow
uh we might have got carried away you
might not want to go
this crazy all right so the game was
moving way too slow so i actually sped
this up in editing so we could enjoy it
a little more
sadly this old program just wouldn't
work right with my computer but this is
the level i designed uh sped up about
two or three times the normal speed
which makes it run a bit smoother little
dragon guy there blocking some rings
here you see me deleting some stuff i
thought if i deleted some of the parts
of the level we've already completed it
would help speed up the game but for the
most part it didn't really seem to help
much this part i designed very poorly we
couldn't make these jumps but i've never
played tested it and the play testing is
actually pretty important
hey look at that okay we got things
running pretty smooth now
i think we had just way too much stuff
on the screen one hit on sunky
two hit on sunkee let's hide he can't
come over here to get us
all right sunky we're going to get you
we're going to get you
another hot sunki
this is so weird now we're moving really
fast maybe it's the big sunkie that
really slows stuff down
all right that was cool as heck okay we
made our first level uh things got a
little uh choppy and slow
let's uh load this up one more time here
let's do 100 objects per second
what could possibly go wrong holy cow
whoa
whoa no
what's going on there's sonkey's
everywhere
whoa
how am i alive right now
