Shadow Adventure 2D

Description

The game is a platformer 2D similar to Sonic 2 and Sonic 3, if you have ever played a Sonic 2D before, it's basically like that. This is a demo of a reimagining of Radical Highway from Sonic Adventure 2 in 2D. Like the original Radical Highway, the protagonist is Shadow the Hedgehog. He must traverse a bridge in construction destroying or evading hostile robots from GUN to obtain a Chaos Emerald, a powerful artifact that will help him obtain his vengeance agaisnt the organization GUN for killing his best friend Maria and trapped him for 50 years. For more details, see the synopsis in the game. 

In the more technical level, I tried to add a lof of things from the original level in 2D,  but I couldn't add the loops, spindash and the grinding in rails. And for more details in the gameplay, you can access the instructions in the game. This is my first time making a game, so I hope that you like it :)

Controls

There are instruction for the controls detailed in the game, but for a brief resume:

AD -> Move

W -> Jump

S -> When not moving, Crouch, when moving, Roll

Esc -> Pause the game

Behind the scenes

Hi, I'm Paspartan1, I like playing games and I'm fan of Sonic since the age of 8. This game was made as a project in 3 moths for a course in videogames, and I never touched Unity or programming (aside from basic things) before, so it's not the best, but I'm happy with the results. 

Now, about the future of this game, I will try to work when I can in it, and the first thing that I would do when updating this demo, is polishing it more and adding things that were planned but I couldn't do because of time and skill, like loops, spindash and dropdash. I'm planning on recreating all the levels from Sonic Adventure 2 where Shadow is the protagonist in 2D, and also I'm going to add original levels, because Shadow only have 4 levels in that game. That way, you can experience the events of Sonic Adventure 2 from the perspective of Shadow.
