Sonic The Hedgehog 2 HD is a gorgeous fan-made remake that adds crisp HD visuals and vastly improved audio to Sonic 2’s classic gameplay to create something Sonic fans have been wanting for years – pure, classic Sonic gameplay with modern video game production standards.

The current build of Sonic The Hedgehog 2 HD features the first two levels and a Robotnik boss fight, but there’s plenty more planned for the future. As well as recreating the full original game, the devs plan to add a few bonuses, such as online multiplayer, additional levels and Knuckles as a playable character.

We’ll be waiting with baited breath to see what the dev team comes up with next as we can’t wait to play more of this awesome HD-hog adventure.

Created and uploaded onto the tongue-in-cheek Hedgehog,Exposed website, by a ‘hacker supergroup’ Arcane Kid$, Sonic Dreams is a bizarre masterpiece that shows Sonic as you’ve never seen him before!
It’s a wonderful collection of four freaky ‘unreleased prototypes’ that feature Sonic and his pals in a variety of odd scenarios. The four games are all pretty crazy, but Sonic Movie Maker and My Roommate Sonic are by far the most entertaining (and f***ed up).
Sonic Movie Maker sees you filming Sonic and pals in a variety of odd situations and locations including orgies, a maternity ward and a trip into Sonics bowels. My Roommate Sonic, however feels like a full on acid trip, in which you attempt to make a move on sonic and really end up getting lost in his eyes.
It’s a wonderfully weird Sonic-infused fever dream that’s really got to be seen to be believed – and it’s also the best Sonic game in years. Highly recommended hedgehog weirdness.

SonicGDK (short for 3D Sonic Games Development Kit) is an impressive Unreal Development Kit powered Sonic The Hedgehog game creation tool which allows users to create some seriously impressive Sonic games (much better than the tat SEGA have been making lately anyway.)

SonicGDK gives you access to 3 versions of Sonic (Classic, Generic & Modern) with super forms, power-ups, badniks, special moves, controller support, checkpoints, bumpers, spikes and various other traps - basically everything you need to make a Sonic game. You will need at least some basic coding skills to great anything good, but going by the variety of impressive games that have already been created with SonicGDK (See GIFs above), it’s certainly a powerful and versatile game creation tool. Maybe even SEGA could make a decent Sonic game with it!

SEGA Brawlers Megamix is an awesome fan made retro side-scrolling beat-em-up that features a roster of about 74 characters from SEGA classics like Sonic, Toejam & Earl, Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, Guardian Heroes, Comix Zone, Shinobi, Vector Man, Ristar, and other multiplatform games like Earthworm Jim, Battletoads and Splatterhouse.

It’s a wonderful love letter to SEGA’s 16-Bit heyday and a remarkably fun 4 player beat-em-up. The amount of work that’s gone into the game is incredible, all the characters have their own move sets and special moves, the soundtrack is fantastic and all the levels and enemies are based on classics, such as Streets of Rage, Golden Axe and Sonic. There’s even a Vs Battle mode, as well as various unlockable gameplay modes and characters unlocked by completing the main adventure.

The game’s still in development, and could do with a little more variety in the main adventure mode and some bigger bosses, but the massive character roster certainly makes up for these minor shortfalls. It’s a fantastic homage to SEGA, 16-bit gaming and classic side-scrolling arcade beat-em-ups. Remarkably, the dev (DJGameFreakTheIguana) is still planning to add even more characters to the game. There really can’t be many more 16-bit SEGA characters out there - Ecco the Dolphin maybe?

Lumini is a 2.5D ‘flow’ adventure game where you take control of a school of winged fish in a beautiful underwater fantasy world where everything is out to get you.

The game is best played with a 360 controller since each analogue stick can be used to split your swarm to two separate groups. You also have the ability to grow your school of ilumini and unlock new types of ilumini with special abilities by collecting glowing elements and taking them to a special artefact. These different types of lumini and the ability to split your school in two are used to solve puzzles and overcome obstacles in this beautiful/dangerous underwater world.

It’s a very enjoyable experience, with smooth controls, great visuals, an excellent soundtrack and an overall feeling of tranquillity. It’s like a serene version of Echo The Dolphin, with more fish and beautiful visuals.

Anarchy Arcade allows you to build a fully functional arcade with your own Steam library and other non-Steam games. Customise the Arcade as you like, with pictures/posters, props, furniture, movies, internet pages, internet radio, YouTube videos, and large variety of Arcade Cabinets and home consoles. Once it’s built you can then play the games and watch movies directly from your arcade.

The customisation options are incredible, you can put any media onto anything you can think of (once unlocked), you can play Starcraft from a Gameboy, Watch a movie from a tablet, Play GTA IV from a Steam Box and so much more. There’s even huge amount of emulator support, so you can play classic SNES games on a SNES through Anarchy Arcade. You probably won’t play them as you’ll be too busy making your arcade look awesome, but you CAN play them, in Anarchy Arcade you can play anything.

Anarchy Arcade has now been Greenlit. It also has some great new features for 2014, such as GameJolt, Netflix, Twitter and Hulu support.

We’d highly getting it before the official release, as we can’t imagine Nintendo and Sega will allow them to use their consoles in the finished version!

A Beta for the unreleased Dreamcast game, Toejam and Earl 3 has been unearthed and is now available to download! ZahookiTM found the files lurking inside an old Dreamcast Devkit that he bought off ebay and has very nicely released the game, free for us all to play.

The game plays quite similarly to the original toejam & Earl games but in glorious 3D, it controls well, features 3 playable characters and still retains the sense of humour of the originals.

As it was still in development, there are no cutscenes, you just begin at the start of the map and go to the elevator to reach the next level. Levels 1 to 9 are stable, with levels above that becoming more unstable and crashing quite often.

It’s an interesting curio from Sega’s history, and we’d highly recommend grabbing a copy of it before Sega get wind of it and shut ZahookiTM down. You can use an emulator or just burn the image to a disk and play it on your Dreamcast
