Don't worry, i'm staying in the hype train for some time. Specially while playing 2.1.
By the way. WHY CAN'T THE TIME GO ANY FASTER?
I am getting desperate for 2.1. This is going to be the LONGEST Weekend of my life o_0

Then great! I really don't like the actual knuckles very much. But Chuckles is WAAAAY too good as a WAD not a Knuckles replacement. So this happy medium is perfect. At least i think it will be.

Sorry, but it really seems like you didn't read my wall of text that I posted a few pages ago. I made it clear that valid criticism only is what can be explained and justified. I can't imagine such thing as a "happy perfect medium", because it makes no sense. You did not explain why it should be a medium, you did not explain why Chuckles itself isn't a good replacement, you just said you would prefer an in-between of 2.0 Knuckles and Chuckles. I would understand if it was just an opinion, but the thing is that you keep bringing it up everytime Knuckles is mentioned on this thread. It's pretentious.

To make it clear, the Chuckles version was solely based on multiple official Knuckles references, and through out the whole process of it, I have taken as much feedback, criticism, and notes as possible to keep it at it's finest. It was made to LOOK LIKE Knuckles as much as possible, due to the previous SRB2 design looking different and younger, due to looking rather small and shorter than Sonic, which is wrong since Knuckles has always been taller. That all being said, I'm sorry, but I can't see why you keep bringing it up that Chuckles isn't a good replacement and that a medium should be made, and I don't get how it's a happy medium either. We got something that actually resembles Knuckles now, so can you explain why do you find a happy medium so important to the point of keep bringing it up? It has honestly been annoying me to just say that with no explanations.

For those who are wondering, yes, Chuckles is the new 2.1 Knuckles.
 
The crazy thing about all of you SRB2 developers (retired ones too!) is that you guys have such an enormous amount of persistence. 1999-2014 and still going, that's amazing. It really is. So many people (myself included) start things and give up along the way. You guys are seriously amazing people.

This should close the conversation about Chuckles and Knuckles. A brand new 2.1 Knux is on the road, looks just fine to me.

To be honest, I wonder if there will be an unwanted crash JUST before the release. I mean, everything went too smoothly (Even though I'm not wanting that to happen...) and I believe I'm not the only one not being present when there will be the release. I hope the launch will be fine while I'll be at my job.

BTW: Does anyone knows where SonicJR team are developping SRB2 2.1? I'd like to know my Timezone :P

I agree. Continuing development of a game like this for 15 years requires quite a bit of determination on your part, and you guys certainly have it. Keep it up!

What i meant for happy medium was for those who don't really like Chuckles (NOT ME, by the way; I LOVE Chuckles). I see no reason why Chuckles shouldn't be 2.1's KTE. So these news are awesome. At least for me. And sorry for bringing up the Knuckles thing constantly. I hope that this ends the posts of Knuckles new design. 2.1 is nearer every second guys. Let's just wait and test it by ourselves.
All we have to do now... is wait. Gotta go guys. The hype train is about to go!
 
Ain't gonna let you end the Knuckles thing, that should be MY work.

Thirded. There isn't much I can say here that others haven't said before me, but really, creating a game like SRB2 and making it so endlessly fun to play, explore, and modify is no small task, and doing it entirely in one's own free time is more impressive still. Thanks for everything you've done up until now, STJr, and I look forward to many years of designing, socializing, and appreciating SRB2 to come.
 
It is now midnight (EST time).

RISE UPON US 2.1, IN ALL YOUR GLORY.

Seriously, if it comes out in this minute I'll freak.

EDIT: It didn't happen...

2.1 WILL SHINE UPON US SOON ENOUGH, MATES.

We shall wait as long as we have to. 2.1 Can appear out of nowhere right now. Maybe it gets released in some minutes. Maybe in some hours. We just have to wait.

~Hanging in the air 'till tomorrow...~

Whenever the time is right. It'll be another one of those things we can't predict until it is upon us...
 
Well, 1.09.4, Srb2 2.0, and Now Srb2 2.1 - And now i have to just clean out Srb2 2.0's Folder ._. for 2.1's stuff, Cant wait till 2.1 just randomly pops up in a bit
 
A big part of it is the uncertainty. 2.1 could easily be released at 11:59pm on Sunday, and that would still be considered the weekend. The hype isn't nearly as fun when I'm refreshing this thread every twenty minutes waiting for release than it was the days leading up to the weekend.

(The hype! The hype!)
 
They said they are aiming for a Saturday release so hopefully we'll see something new in the afternoon or something like that. I doubt 2.1 will be released in the middle of the night.
