Sonic 1 & 2 2013 decompilation project release

[Deleted User]

Rubberduckeycooley (what a name) released his (almost) complete Decompilation of Sonic 1 & 2 (2013).
This is based on Christan Whitehead's "Retro Engine"and requires assets from the official releases to run.
Currently supported are:
iOS Sonic 1 & 2 via the App Store
Android Sonic 1 & 2 via Google Play
Android Sonic 1 & 2 via Amazon
Even if your platform isn't supported by the official releases, you can buy it for the assets (you dont need to run the official release, you just need the game assets)
How to get the game to run (windows): take the data.rsdk file from your legally purchased copy of Sonic 1 (2013) OR Sonic 2 (2013) and place it in the same directory as the .exe file.

yo thanks for sharing this here for me since I never check here these days, I'm glad to see that other people are excited enough about my silly project that it's being shared around this much!

Wow, and already ported to Vita too. It's a good month to be a Vita owner apparently.

TMW Sonic 1 and 2 for Mobile get ported to the PC before Sonic 3 AIR gets ported to Android

I am sorry but what exactly is this decompilation about? Is it like porting mobile version to PC?

I'm hoping for Wii U ports myself.

Pretty much. Most fans agree that the Whitehead mobile versions of these Sonic games stand as the definitive versions of them, but their absence from releasing on other platforms has been a real shame for many, this changes that, now they can be made for PC, Vita, Switch, probably Wii U, etc. etc.

Yeah, an exe for Windows. Would love to see it on Wii U.....

Edit.... Beat me to it again @MikaDubbz

Why it’s not official,but unofficial instead? Due to DMCA of Sega?

They reverse enginierd the original binary back to the source code.

 

[B-alpha]

Aus idea where to get the 1.1.0 version for the switch version?

 

[protivakid]

The game plays fine but I have to ask, am I doing something wrong or is the Menu for this game simply white text on a black background?

 

[protivakid]

Anyone? Is this normal?

 

[Luke94]

Perhaps it's gonna be unofficial fanmade project.

 

[protivakid]

Perhaps it's gonna be unofficial fanmade project.

Looking at youtube vids it seems no one has implemented the Android/iOS version's fancy menu so this seems normal.

Mega Drive/ Sega Genesis port ? or Nintendo DSi

 

[Awesome_neos145]

I wonder when someone is gonna make a Wii U Port
