Also that final boss is almost kinda a fusion of Sonic 1's final boss with
Wacky Workbench's boss
. But, like, not as good.Also also I propose naming the clone R'aocow, to make the name WAY COOLER LOOKING YEAHHH and sidestep the word filter with grace at the same time
Re: All The S@nics - 1 (8-Bit) - Bridging The Generation Gap
I was confused by the title at first because "When the Night Comes Falling From the Sky" is very noticeably an '80s song, but then again Bob Dylan did have a lot of older material re-released with outtakes and alternate versions later on, so I guess that's what happened.

I really hope that raocow gets all the emeralds in Sonic 2 SMS/GG, since it's absolutely required for the final zone. Also dang that game is still tough. Can't believe I played it as much as a kid as I did, but then again things were way more simple back before this weird thing called the "internet"
Makes me wonder, since I have legit no idea, did other things like Sonic Chaos, Triple Trouble, and Tail's Sky Patrol get SMS versions? I know there's options in KFusion to play GG games in SMS screen size if nothing else so it's not so zoomed in.

Sonic 1 & 2, the 8-bit versions of Mean Bean Machine and Spinball, Sonic Chaos and Sonic Blast all got Master System ports (though the Sonic Chaos one was Europe only and Sonic Blast was Brazil-only)Awoo wrote: ↑4 years ago Oh, man, what a trip!

Oh, man, the 8-bit version of Spinball is seriously different. I'd completely forgotten that was even a thing.Super Llama wrote: ↑4 years agoSonic 1 & 2, the 8-bit versions of Mean Bean Machine and Spinball, Sonic Chaos and Sonic Blast all got Master System ports (though the Sonic Chaos one was Europe only and Sonic Blast was Brazil-only)Awoo wrote: ↑4 years ago Oh, man, what a trip!

Different enough to justify raocow playing it in addition to the Genesis one I imagine?
Let's find out together!
Re: All The S@nics - 1 (8-Bit) - Bridging The Generation Gap
The Master System and the Game Gear are basically the same hardware, with the only major difference being the screen resolution (256 x 192 vs 160 x 144). This game was designed originally for the Game Gear, with Ancient (the developer) creating a Master System version on Sega's request. My guess is, this game was given a code copy-paste on the SMS version with only visual adjustments made to account for the better display size/resolution, along with some changes to compensate for the additional screen real estate (for example, the final boss is quite different in the GG version). For 90% of the game, this was okay to do. However, in Jungle Zone Act 2, its ratchet scrolling maintained the code parameters from the Game Gear version regarding what triggers a death in that particular stage. Because it was such a minor detail, it was likely just forgotten.
To put it in simple terms, if raocow were playing this game on the Game Gear, his deaths would've actually made some sense because Sonic would be below its screen threshold. Granted, it would be rather strict regardless, but it would still make sense in comparison to how it looked on the Master System.

Strong flaw in your argument: the GG version does not have ratchet scrolling at all
