Looks good keep it up and has it been an hour yet?
Oh yes, the textures, I'll show many of them tommorow along with GFX as well.
As for the levels, I'm trying to do level themes that haven't been done before, such as a candy-themed level or something. The reason why the mod has not been released is mainly because levels take a long time to make, three weeks of work could only equal one minute of gameplay, it's hard to make a very long and detailed map when you've got a game that's meant for the player to speed through hours of work in 4 minutes...
I do have an almost final list of levels that are going to be included with the beta though. My goal is to release 15 levels with the beta.
Once I release the first beta, I'll touch up things like the starpost and change it from one angle to all angles and other things like that. Beta 2 shall include all cutscenes and touched up sprites. Beta 3 will include new and more touched up sprites. Beta 4 will include completed socs, graphics, and new textures. After Beta 4 is: Dash's World V1, which will include all levels except for NiGHTs levels, and it will not include 3D models. After version 1 I'll keep adding more and more levels and new material to the mod.
Edit: I'll also keep updating Dash as well, he'll go from normal, to high-res, to hand drawn.

That is true...... Coop maps take much more experience and time.

There and back again~
I really like this, while I personally prefer a more cartoony look for Sonic, this looks really awesome.
Hmm... I found that you can fill with a pattern in GIMP even with an indexed palette. I personally try to avoid this cause firstly I wouldn't have actually made the texture myself, because I prefer a cartoony look for Sonic, and lastly, because it needs to be scaled just right so that it can repeat seamlessly. However there is a tree bark pattern that fits really well with your style, I could fix it into a texture and show you...

Here are some textures I fixed up using the GIMP patterns. I take no credit, these textures were not made by me, but were distributed with GIMP under the GNU free license or whatever.
Tree Bark
Rock Wall
Brick Wall
Marble Floor
(Yes these work with the SRB2 palette, which I added into GIMP color by color)
