Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.

@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?

@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin

@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:24 PM)

Finally!

@  RedMenace : (21 July 2015 - 05:02 PM)

Woooo! The site's back up! Three cheers for Kef!

To be honest, I don't think making a big game based on SatAM is such a good idea. All that time and money could go into something you could actually sell. If you make a SatAM game, you'll never be able to sell it. (If it were possible, I would be so totally working on one...)


Dude that is not going to be the first game or one of the better games I'll make. I am going to make one even if I just put it on a website for everyone to play and just sell adspace, but I also have a couple of other game ideas that I am now making the Game Design Document for (GDD) which I'm going to make before the SatAm game.

My ideal satam game would have to deal with being able to use all the characters in the game and the story line would be based on the sequential events that happen in season two but also include mini missions that would incorporate the adventures in the first season. awesome.png
It would use sonics ability of speed, Rotors use of technology, Sally's brains, Tails flight, and Bunnies Strength. I would like to see the game in 3D with many interactive parts. I would put characters in certain missions with eachother so team work can be incorporated. My idea of the enemies would be mostly swat botts and stealth bots. There would be boobie traps and other opsticles like acid, lava, and megamuck. The bosses would have to be giant robots to keep the classical flow of the game. There will be collectables for all the characters like power rings for pertection like in most sonic games, speed shoes, and deep power stones for invincibility. graduated.gif arrowhead.png icon_nyah.gif headbutt.gif

PSI mentioned a long time ago that a Beat em up would be a good idea, but im thinking more of an arcade brawler than a 1 on 1.
Choosing between a variety of characters (Sonic, Sally, Bunnie, Antoine) teaming up on co op and beating the hell out of waves of Swatbots. Only liberties that would need to be taken here are maybe updated looks for the characters, and adding some villains from the Archie comic for Boss battles.

Unfortunately, that is very true. lipsrsealed.gif

Because Sega are such butt heads about this amazing genre, no one could sell a game about Sonic Satam without getting nailed with a huge lawsuit.

I think a SatAM based game would probably end up being like Pokemon Yellow: you make a show based on a game, then you make another game based on that show similar to the game you started with. Along the way, things don't always translate well.

In the Pokemon tv show, Ash having Pikachu as his own choice made things interesting. In the games, that was annoying compared to the dynamic of being able to choose between charmander, squirtle, and bulbasaur. The lack of options plus Pikachu being terrible against the first gym is really annoying.

I remember when playing Sly 2: Band of Thieves, at first being able to play as the other characters was fun. I really just wanted to play as Sonic. Then it got really annoying. Same with Sonic Adventure 2. I wanted to play as Sonic and Tails but not Knuckles.

So, I think the same would end up happening with a SatAM game. First it would be cool being all stealthy as Sally, but in the end, I would want more Sonic gameplay and less Sally gameplay. To be true to the show, you would have to split them far more evenly than I would find enjoyable. Also, while level variety is there for SatAM, enemy variety still would be lacking compared to the games.

So, my vision? Keep Sally's gameplay to a minimum, and maybe throw in some playing as Antoine (running away slowly), Rotor (deploying and using mechanical devices), and of course, Bunny, making short work of SWAT bots. Of course, those three wouldn't get as much screen time as Sally.

Definitely, recon and mini-missions would be in order before main attacks, just like in Assasin's Creed, Sly 2, Crackdown, and many other such games.
Also, keep the SWAT bots and hover units and all, but give them more different types of arnaments, and add more enemies too.

I think the Ideal SatAM game would play similar to the old Genisis Games. Where each playable character would play very similar but they would have one characteristic that the others would not (Tails could fly, Sally could hack things with Nichole, so on so forth). I also believe the game would bem more fun if it introduced more enemies then just SWATbutts and Hover Heads. Like the Buzz Bomber's in the pilot.
Plot-wise I think it should tie in Season 1 with Season 2. Like explain where Dulcey came from and why other changes happened.
There would be Rings which would work like Rings in the old Genisis Games and then Power Rings which would act like a power up.
And of course while I am at it, there would be a good plot tieing it all together.
And I think it should be handheld. Like on the DS so it be like you're playing it on NICHOLE.

Hi new here names Dimeadent

Anyways I would like to say I'm a insanely big fan of Sonic Satam and still can't beleave Sega hasent made a Sonic Satam fan game by the way before I continue typing just want to say if I say something you don't like just ignore it please after all new here and this is me rambling at the mouth.

with that said I would like to point out I Ideal thought of how a Sonic Satam game should be.

1) character game play. Sonic should have all his ability such as Spin dash the figure eight run and as for the power ring he should get those in the monitor things I would also suggest he should get those great new ability he had from the lost Sonic Saturday fan game such as that quill shot but they shouldn't be silver they should be blue it just looks wrong for the quills that shoot off his body to turn silver sense he is not a robot. lastly for sonic I think he should be able to go super with the power stones or seven chaos emeralds.

2) Knuckles should have the spin dash and gliding he is known for also should be able to punch as well as drill dive and should be able to punch upward.

3) Sally should be able to do a spin dash in a force field generated by her computer Nicole. also hacking is good for her but I think sense she is more athletic she should have a cartwheel kick attack starts out as a cartwheel and than turns into a jump kick. killing swat bot on impact as well as any other bad-nick also to mention the enemy's I think an enemy should not die form just one hit it doesn't make sense to me that a highly advanced robot like a swat bot would die from just one hit but maybe 3 or 4 hits after all the boss Robot nick has 8 hits usually.

4) Bunny is probably going to be one of the best to play as cuz she is a power house if she had a spin dash I would imagine it would be powered by the thrusters on the bottoms of her feet. With Her robotic arm she could extend-o punch far away enemy's and with her blaster she could have a charge ability as well as the power to extend her legs that would be fun to play with to say the least.

5) Mighty should play like sonic with the spin dash and all but mighty should have a hard spin dash as in if you spin in place for a long enough time than you see treads appear around Mighty's body resembling the treads an armadillo has the hard spin dash should make it so Mighty can knock down enemy's that no one else can and be able to go through walls that no one else can leading to new levels.

6)Tails should have his spin dash and a tail attack were he uses his tails to kill enemy's. also when you get him moving fast enough when he has his tails doing the helicopter behind him than he should have a boost that he can preform than.

7)Vector the crocodile should have his chain saw spin dash like in knuckles chaoticx's also as a power up he should be able to use a sound attack form his head set to kill enemy's.

8) Antone should be playable but I have no clue as to how he could pull of a spin dash but on the bright side he could wield a sword and have a Calvary charge while running with the sword in front of him like the attack link does when he uses the Pegasus boots.

9) Espio give him all the moves he had in knuckles chaoticx's and that really cool color changing ability and an ability to use his tongue as an attack as well as a way to get around the level.

10) Rotor/Boomer if he was playable he should have the ability to belly slide and head but the enemy as well as hack computers.

11) chammy should play like he did in knuckles chaoticx and that's all i have to say about that character.

12) Shadow Sonic 1 Mega Mix did it best if that can be improved upon I don't know how.

13) July Su if she was in said game than she should have a spin dash a gun and some kind of attack from her metal tentacal.

Bosses i would suggest would be the real Robotnick Snivily knuckles great uncle Enerjack, and Ixis
Nagus as well as Nack the Weasel.

please don't slay me for the miss spellings and i would love to here your input of this line up.

Also before I go I have a friend named Magick and he has a website dedicated to fury's such as were Cats, Were Wolfs, and every other were creature in existence that in cludes were dragons. the name of the website is WWW.MoonQuesters.com if you want to see some of his art work just check out his portfolio page.

I agree...I lasted maybe 5 minutes on it. Between the storyline and the gameplay...it just didn't hold me.

Maybe for Bunnie, it'd be like a mix between Mega Man and Bionic Commando.

Antoine maybe kind of a Monkey Island style (sword fighting with goofy insults, for example).

Sonic and Tails as usual...

Sally would have similar platforming, but with puzzles to solve (to make use of her smarts).

Rotor would have to drive some mechs (like in some of the Mega Man X games).

I beat the first couple levels, didn't like the story, didn't like the gameplay, so I stopped playing it.

Just to go a bit leftfield... How about a First person Shooter, wait! Dont run away! Let me explain...

...Robotniks invasion has begun, Mobotropolis is now going to hell and you are a royal soldier. You are on duty as the SwatBots storm the palace and you fight your way back to the dungeons before Robotnik takes it over. You get given orders and objectives/missions by a commander, King Max and Chuck and your exploits will cover various events from Blast to the past and some new original missions. I have an idea that involves making a heroic sacrifice to save the young Freedom Fighters as they escape.

Very interesting concept...I think it would work pretty good. Especially the end...you die however you do so ensuring there's still hope for the future of Mobius.

Well the game would no doubt have something of a bleak tone due to the situation your character (Who I think should remain nameless) is in. It will of course end on a hopeful note due to your efforts in helping the future freedom fighters, as we know how much Sonic will ruin Robotniks life. For "the soldier" I was yoyoing between a bolivian army ending (You vs 100+ swatbots) or a 1st person roboticization after said encounter, but the latter would be too bleak I think.
