Neo Sonic 2.4

Great homing attack and animation! If you wish SRB2 felt a bit more like one of those "Sega hire this man" games, this is the mod for you!

This is honestly not only my favorite sonic to use on this site but my favorite character overall, not only is momentum well implemented but he really gives a sense of speed and fluidity. The only thing I could hope for more with this mod is a super form

Lol, flattened Sonic, i like that.

My favorite Sonic on the site, hands down. Straddles the line between Classic and Modern wonderfully.

Goodbye 2.2 Neo Sonic................ Welcome 2.4 Neo Sonic!

You can really tell that the person who made this has played and gotten good at a lot of Sonic games. Neo Sonic is chock full of the same type of appeal that every Sonic game strives for, especially the classic ones. Every time I bumble into an enemy or awkwardly stumble around a wall that I so clumsily launched myself face-first into, it hurts in an invigorating way, because I know that there's so much more potential. I can just feel the speed, the flow I could achieve if I could only get good. Good's in high supply these days, but if I put in the work, I can tell it'll be well worth it.

You can also tell that the person who made this is an indie game dev from the copious amounts of squash and stretch. As a hobbyist game dev myself, I've never understood the appeal of that procedural squash and stretch that so many indie games do...

Now this is epic

When Neo Tails and Neo Knuckles

@SRB2SuperSonic review I quote:

"This is a fun mod to use, but there's a lot I have to say about it. And not much of it is nice. First off, I like how fast he goes, but he's a little too fast in my opinion. Second, his moveset can be expanded to include more modern abilities like the Light Dash and Bounce Bracelet and even the sweep kick from Sonic 06. Also, this is probably the first modded Sonic in SRB2 to not include a Super form. If you can implement that, it'd be appreciated a little more. Also, there's either incompatibility with BuddyEX, or I just don't know how to spawn a Neo Sonic bot. I hope this gets looked over and some of these changes I mention actually happen. Thank you."

1. He does have compatibility with BuddyEX. His spawn code is "addbot msonic color", and if you don't know Greeneyes, it's "addbot greeneyesonic color", with Modern Sonic being "addbot modernsonic color".
2. Yeah I agree, he could use a bit more moves, with (most of) them being the ones you suggested. I'm not criticizing him, but still. I only suggest a few extras: Super Peelout, some sort of combat like ability, and a double jump.


Now on to my actual review: He's very nice to control, albeit being slipperier and heavier, I would like it a bit more if he was less slippery and heavy, but if that's the point, that's cool. Also, he feels a bit more empty since you removed shield abilities being stacked with the Dropdash. Adding them back would be nice. But criticizing aside, He's a very good character, almost like SonicRE (with Bounce Attack replaced with Dropdash), but not nearly as complex to control as say, oh I don't know, GREENEYES? But still, this is astounding, and I give it a 10.5 out of 10.

This is a fire mod that adds Sonic advance, adventure, and rush together but is there a 3D model for this?

An excellently drawn Sonic with an actually good and fun Homing Attack, but not overcomplicated by needing additional buttons beyond jump and spin. Simple excellence.

What you see is what you get. Just a guy that loves adventure.

Perfect, outstanding, amazing, i have no other words.

After completing a handful of levels with it, I am going to leave this review, first of all ... Let's start with what I liked.

His sprites are a clear 15/10, it feels SO good to play with him and watch him run at breakneck speeds, they are one of the most eye-catching sprites I saw in SRB2
His homing attack is intuitive, but difficult to master, which I love, I also really like the fact of sacrificing speed to go higher and vice versa
The special effects it has are very nice to see, like when you break the sound barrier for example, it is TOO satisfying
Your spindash is quite good, it is OP but at the same time it takes more time to load, nice touch!
... Now the things that were not very to my liking,
The trail that you leave when you run in Boost mode, distracts the eye a bit when trying to see where you need to go, maybe making them smaller or a little more separated is a good solution.
His dropdash ... It's weird, I don't know how to explain it, but maybe I get used to Pointy's a lot, but that's not a problem!
the boost mode is something difficult to maintain for a long period, and I don't think they are my reflexes because I play with SMS almost all the time and I have good records
The last thing is that you can not break the spikes if you are in Boost mode and rolling at the same time, neither in turbo mode and jumping, but that I do not think is a problem very of the character, but more me that I get used to breaking it in monstrous ways with HMS

I'm going to give 5 stars, stellar work to those who made this character! There are some nipticks that can be fixed with some time, but I'm having a LOT of fun with this Add-on

My favorite take on a Modern Sonic moveset. NIcely done!

the current version loads with errors about certain things being allocated

My favourite mod character, but he's outdated, we NEED an update to fix bugs.
And please add super sonic

pretty cool but it lacks super form sprite and abilities, other than that its a pretty cool mod

even though he doesn't have any super form, this guy was a lot of fun to play as.

I feel the drop dash kind of gets overshadowed by the homing attack moves to the point it feels kind of useless to use but besides that I feel the mod is pretty nice, fun to play

one of my favorite mods!!
