It was around 2019, I made my character into SRB2 Kart as my first mod ever (I honestly didn't expect it to work since the only things I had were a tutorial video and my dumb brain) The character wasn't released at that moment for some reasons, he would even have a backstory of how he got into karts. Of course that at that time I knew SRB2 but ussualy got bored with it since I already unlocked all the levels and saw that no one hosted servers anymore (expect for one but it was empty) I through since I made a skin in SRB2 Kart, I would try to see how a skin "works" in SRB2 and when I first saw it, I through it was too hard to make, but then I would never know how it would be if I never tried it. Soo I tried and it was actually not bad. (Until I knew how to do it correctly and geez, how it is hard) I used SSNSonic as a reference for the walking frames, I drawed the arms and the legs but at that time I didn't notice that they looked weird... Especially the legs. Then I added some abilities from other mods, Yeah, you heard it right. I imported F Sonic's abilities to my character, I didn't knew if he was reusable at the time since I didn't knew about the MB rules and I also didn't have Discord soo I was technically dumb. :P
After I finished making my character into SRB2, I decided to make my brother in, as well as some other characters that never saw the light of the day As I was making them I also decided to make a mod where it would contain all those characters in one single pack as well with some extra maps obviously not stolen. (they were, idk ._.) I eventually stopped working on the project because of my stupidity, when 2.2 released the mod was going to have a port, it were made some stuff like cutscenes, titlescreen animations, music from a shitty playstore app (jk, it's actually good), new maps and new characters. I sucked at lua soo I couldn't port FSonic's abilities, soo it was left as a Sonic reskin which today is now known as Legacy Rafael. The maps were obviously broken but the mod itself was kinda good. (jk, it's actually cringe) I decided to finnaly make an MB account to publish my mod, and the rest is another story.
