Shadow the Hedgehog 1.3

I've come to make an announcement!

Shadow the Hedgehogs a wonderful modification with a perfectly simplistic moveset and top-notch sprite-work, so much so that if SRB2 wasn't a "Classic" era game, Shadow would fit right in, no questions asked.

Now you have 23 hours to download this mod before I start rapidly approaching your location, with very ill intentions!

Jokes aside, I understand the people complaining the Homing Attack be chained to Chaos Snap, but Classic Sonic characters are designed in a very specific way - they all behave nearly identically, except for their midair ability, which is what mainly differentiates them. I much prefer having Chaos Snap and Homing Attack on the same button.

...thoooough, now since SxSG has released, maybe somebody could create a patch and turn the Homing Attack into a Homing Chaos Snap like that game?

I'm very aware this addon isn't getting updated anymore.

Too bad it can't be reused, modified or ported. I had plans to include Shadow in my newest SRB2 project as it's so good. Anyway, it was a perfect work of yours and I wanna say congratulations for this.

I like OP characters so 10/10 or 5/5

yep i like the mod ,in future update can you make a commend that changes shadow stripes and his accesories to what color the player wants but overal the mod is great1

Almost perfect, only one issue: Please make a Homing attack on Spin! sometimes it gets really frustrating when I try to Teleport with Chaos Control, but spin into tnt XD. Creators of Surge did it, and it feels great, so please!

It's a professional-level character quality-wise.

It's much better than Forces' Episode Shadow!

What is SHADOVV cus I saw some guy say he had a heart attack because of it, also 5 star cus shadow da goat

Shadow The Hedgehog is really amazing and it runs very smoothly when I tried it, I saw that it had a little problem in its super form with some textures but nothing serious like crashing or glitches

hell yeah, this is what you call an "Ultimate Life Form". shadow in srb2 is what i'd consider a new standard for mods; easy to pick up, hard to master, different movement options, a lot of cool secrets, and most importantly: extremely fucking fun.
chaos snap is a massive upgrade from its 2.1 iteration, no question. momentum preservation is what this move needed to really evolve, and the added touch of being invulnerable for the first few frames really gives it something (especially since you can actually form new paths in custom maps specifically for shadow through hurtwalls!).
homing attack though, it's not my personal cup of tea. not bad by any means, it feels great and the posing after a rebound can be awesome, but the fact that chaos snap's problem has already been solved does make this a bit of a pointless move in comparison. i would personally much rather chaos snap than homing attack.
the visuals also need to be commended, shadow's sprites are honestly some of the highest quality i've ever seen on the message board, and are, again, a huge upgrade from 2.1. it all feels extremely dynamic and radiates shadow the hedgehog (game) for better or for worse.

the secrets, while relatively tucked away, are both hilarious and a blast to use. especially the one you unlock after beating castle eggman's special stage, i expected it but it didn't surprise me any less!

overall? absolute recommendation, must play, whatever you want to call it.

i loved it,this is so well made

Can someone explain to me what happened after the "close the game" message appeared in shadovv mode, I was so scared that I closed it immediately

He may not have his array of weapons from the all time classic, Shadow the Hedgehog the Game, but he does cool teleport-fu instead. Somewhat more difficult then other characters, so I can't recommend him for beginners, but capable of crazy stuff for those who can manage to control him. Has some hidden depths as well...

Love the mod, tons of fun to play and the abilities are awesome!

I love it! now we can enjoy the magic of a shadow that is the ultimate life form

Nice sprite work, fun abilities. I got to play this with some of Kart Krew the other day and I had a pretty good time.

Amazing character. So much was put into this to the point that Shadow might be my SRB2 "main" for a long time!

This character deserves maps made around his awesome teleport ability and I may attempt doing that one day. That said, this does represent a lot for SRB2's story and now the dedication behind it with 2.2's arrival. Just excellent

Can we all agree that's the best shadow for SRB2 so far, like his move set and sprites are the best so far in my opinion. Totally deserve 5 stars.

Very fun and enjoyable.

Shadow plays really well and the secrets were hilarious. Keep up the great work!

Excellent Spritework, innovative ability, and attention to detail make for an great character.
