The truth I do not know if the project is dead or not, what I do know is that persistent attitudes like that are what were wearing down my desire to continue.
 
 I confess that I took a break because I tried not to be hard, since I always put the good things of people above everything else, but really this situation is suffocating me.
 
 It is boring to have to repeat the same thing always, to feel obliged to comment on even the most inconsequential updates, wasting an important part of my time, and above all, feeling that my opinion is the least important in some cases.
 
 I clarify that I am not angry in any way with you and you will always have a space here to share your ideas, but I think it is necessary for you to understand that the people who carry out this type of project are normal humans, with obligations, responsibilities etc, etc, etc...

 Of course, it's great, I even considered making a graphic hack of the first version of that homebrew
 Note: The independent version of the game only works in Jnes, I recommend to try it.
 
 Gastronomicon
 Actually although at first glance it may seem like a simple game, on a technical level it is quite interesting, since it not only adapts many of the characteristics of the original game, but it also uses a surprising amount of graphic tricks

 Nothing new around here (I do not want to continue answering questions of that type, thank you very much)

 SuperStarfox
 Actually I could not relax and less continue
 
 Note: Although Piksel can work for small projects, I recommend using programs such as Photoshop for coloring the graphics and Firework for animation, since it is much more practical to work with offline programs

hey sics...
I'm real sorry that i kept on acting impatient, it's because i thought that the project was cancelled, but it isn't and i'm glad you're back... Besides, After All That Work You've Done For Sonic, I Even Thought That Things Weren't Gonna Be The Same Without You, and You're By Far The Best Romhacker I've Seen All Day and I Hope That The Project Is Finished Very Soon. 

[sics]

 The truth is that currently I have no plans to continue with the project and is that the truth I'm almost sure that you have not understood what I wanted to say.

 First of all, the only reason why I decided to post again in this forum was because I wanted to avoid people ending up making you feel bad, for things that I should have talked to you from the beginning.

 That is why he must understand that just as you manage to motivate others and provide interesting proposals, you tend to have a very invasive and sometimes even intolerant attitude towards the ideas of others and that in the long term ends up being exhausting.

 And no, this attitude is not something new, it is only necessary to examine your previous publications and you will be able to realize that 34 of the 44 comments that you made in this forum are directed to this project, and this without taking into account the messages that you have sent to through other means.
 
 Of course, being fair, I must clarify that you are not the only "insistent" person I have had to deal with at the present time, but this type of thing turns out to be what turns a hobby that has everything to be fun in a stressful job more and nobody with common sense wants to work in those terms.
 
 Conclusion: You are a nice person, I value your participation in the project, and I also think that you have a great talent, but I do not want to feel pressured by anyone, nor do I think it is normal that I have to inform you so frequently about "current status of this project "And above all I would need you to understand the negative responses as such and not as something that if you push hard enough you will end up getting it.
 
 I am not angry with you, I do not blame you for anything, much less demand that you offer me an apology, I understand that we all carry our own shortcomings and of course I am not the exception to this rule, for that reason I felt that the most sensible thing was to take distance before speaking, so as not to be influenced by the situation I was living in, I regret that this was not possible, so I apologize if my words are too hard, a hug and I hope that something positive can emerge from all this.

Sincerely He-man

@Sics

thank you for all the effort, enthusiasm and work done in one of the best projects for Famicom / Nes to date, especially to the followers of Sonic the hedgehog
It's sad, but it's a good choice, this is a hobby to have fun creating, improving games and you have to always enjoy it

Greetings Sics

[Ray572]

 
I still hope that this will end, but it is better that you take your time or do it in secret.
I hope you can come back.
Have a good time

[torridgristle]

I emailed Sic about releasing what he's already made but he hasn't replied. I do have a version of this ROM hack from when he was working on changing the underwater air supply timer but I'd like some feedback on if I should release it. On one hand it's good and lots of people were interested in it and people might work to finish it, but on the other Sic probably would have released it himself if he wanted it out there. I don't want to be scummy about it.

[HPJ]

I've got a very late version myself, though I'm not sure if it's newer than yours.

[sics]

 My username is "sics" not "Sic", I think you sent the message to someone else, sorry

 About what you mention, I have the desire to continue, but currently I do not have enough time to do it, so I am willing to share my work with anyone who wants to continue it, but I would prefer to give it to that person only, even if it sounds silly I would like to respect the vote that there was regarding that.

 On the other hand, in reality there is nothing left to do, just missing:

 ■ Re-map the Star Light and Final Zone graphics (adding the missing objects).

 ■ Repair the tour of Labyrinth and Star Light.

 ■ Reposition some enemies.

 And in addition I thought to reorganize the animations of Sonic, and to align them again, but although I found everything necessary, I did not know how to find the hitbox of the character.

 - Thanks to others who commented

I understand that you have little time to work on this awesome hack,I DO hope that someone picks it up and finishes it?

Honestly, I'd love to test this!
I actually own a softmodded Wii, so I can see if there's any issues with the game when played on FCEUX GX for Wii.
I also have a TON of time on my hands, seeing as I have 6 weeks of free time to kill, I can see if I can attempt to see where enemy placement is located. I think it's healthy to take a break and let other people take the reins for a bit.

[sics]

 Both this hack, and the original game, do not work correctly in FCEUX, since this ROM requires precision emulators to run properly, anyway the problems presented by this game in this emulator are almost imperceptible and quite difficult to reproduce.

 About the position of the enemies is very easy to find, they are always located at the end of the level data, they are read with the following format.

01 Level objects
60 Obj-Axis X
0E X axis block coordinate

Are You Planning To Upload More Videos On The Progress You've Done For Sonic The Hedgehog On The NES?

P.S. You're Doing A Great Job On The Project...

[sics]

 Hello SuperStarFox, I have no new material to present, I'm currently busy, but it's good to read you back

[SuperStarFox]

Any Alternative Graphics Added To This Project Yet?

The Grass Tileset In Marble Zone Could Use Some Improvements, Not The Background, The Floor Tileset.
In One Of Sonic's Sprites, Sonic's Mouth Shouldn't Be Shown When He's Running, Standing, Looking Up, Looking Down, Or When He's Jumps On A Spring.
How Goes Those Graphics For Star Light Zone And Final Zone?

[cartridge_rom]

The Sonic 5 project is in standby or on hold until further notice from its developer Sics

It is a hard and heavy development to improve both content only a person without help or support

[SuperStarFox]

Tails Choked On His Chili Dog! 

Anyway... The Project Is Doing Good And I'm Glad Sics Is Working On This Project, In "secret" Just For Now... And That's All I Wanna Say.

Hope You Like It sics... any new alternative graphics yet? 

[Xander max]

I look forward to this project!  This Sonic is on the list of my favorite hacks, along with Legend of Link, Mario Adventure, Metroid Rogue Dawn, Ghostbusters Remastered and Megaman CX.  Congratulations, keep up the great work!

 Currently I have only continued working on the graphics, since the volume of the project does not allow me to easily resume it, there is a lot of data that I must reinterpret and I honestly do not find the occasion to do so .

 Regarding the grass of Marble Zone, I did hundreds of tests looking for alternative graphics that adapted correctly to that area, but in general these graphics were reducing visibility in certain sectors of the level.
 
 Speaking of graphics, I don't understand the decision to restore the design of the temple roof, not only does the current version have more sprites, but it is practically a copy of the Megadrive version .


 ^SuperStarFox

 Sonic's mouth again ?  When the continuity of the project is so compromised, I think there are more interesting topics to talk about .
 
 ■ In Star Light Zone I have moved some things, retouched several graphics and worked to improve the background, but I am not happy with some things .

 ■ In Final Zone I only arranged the Eggman design .
 
 On the other hand the project is not working well, I just try to continue because of my obstinacy of seeing it finished, but the conditions in which I work are terrible, anyway thanks for supporting me  .
 
 Note: I think it would be best to pretend that the project has been canceled, in this way you can avoid uncertainty and at the same time enjoy if there is an update.

Cartridge_rom
 If I had money I would hire you as my representative!

Xander max
 In that group of hacks, mine would be the one that serves coffee to the others, thank you very much for the support!
