Sonic 1 NR/Untitled S1 Hack

2014-2016

Let's first telling first romhack start from 2014-2016

Untitled S1 Hack start creating by me (WHITEy) and my friend Elaymm4 in Q1 2014 on Sonic 1 Hacking Studio (by Vladikcomper).

In October 2014, I released first demo on forum Sonic CIS. In their opinion, it looks so-so since 2014. But, someone said that my hack has been awesome and liked since 2014-2015. According to opinion in head, nope.

Untitled Sonic the Hedgehog Hack - Walkthrough by Razor and Zenon from 2014

The next second demo is February 2015, which I changed something with a hack and the levels were available: GHZ, MZ and LZ. The rest of the levels were unfinished. This hack has been available from Sonic Games Dimension.

Untitled S1 Hack - Walkthrough (Demo Version) by Razor and Zenon from 2015

The third demo is September 2015, which was available for download on SSRG and Sonic Games Dimension. On this third demo, somewhere, little has changed as from the second demo from February 2015.

In early 2016, the Sonic Games Dimension website was hacked by an unknown user. During the hack, SonicVaan decided to close the site permanently and leave a last message on the site before leaving.

As you can imagine, this site closed due to a hack. In fact, this site contained all the romhacks that were uploaded at will. Unfortunately, I was unable to get back my past demos from 2015 due to a hack and site shutdown.

After the collapse of SGD, I decided to go ahead and remove the splash screen from my hack except SSRG.

On October 16, 2016, he planned to release the hack this year, but decided to announce the release of the last version in spring 2017 and release a teaser along with the release date. Also named my hack Untitled S1 Hack on Sonic 1 NR.

So far spent a lot of time with this hack with changing the title screen, levels and music.

At the end of October 2016, my hard drive died from memory killing.

I don't have proof how was going on, but I remember message on screen if I turn on my PC:
"Reboot and Select proper Boot device
or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key"

Due to the death of my hard drive, I lost my SourceCode and latest build.

On January 15, 2017, wrote in my forum on SSRG about canceling my Sonic 1 NR hack due to abuse of my hard drive.

Later, after the death of my hack Sonic 1 NR, I decided to continue on a new hack, which I started in the spring of 2016.

Sonic 1 The Mystic Realm / Sonic 1 TMR

2016-2019 (formerly named from 2016 Sonic 1 Proex Visa)

The new romhack started working in the spring of 2016 during the development of Untitled S1 Hack.

Since September 2016, I have not lost the build with the old source. But this source of Sonic 1 Proex Visa was saved on Yandex Disk and was able to recover after the death of the hard drive along with Sonic 1 NR.

At the end of 2016, I decided to name the hack Sonic 1 The Mystic Realm. Later he created a logo and transcribed it on Sonic 1 TMR.

At the beginning of 2017, a prototype build was shown, only GHZ was shown, but more about it was not given about the trailer and the hacks itself, since this hack was still in hidden development and levels like MZ and LZ are not yet ready to be shown in the trailer.

According to the idea, the first demo should be released in 2017, which should be called the version of the hack and revision, the update of Version A and Version B and the release of the hack itself without version options. But the release plan in 2017 fell through, which is why this hack still needs a lot of time to prepare for the levels and sprites for the first demo in 2018 sometime in the summer.

The next trailer in 2018 is the release of the first demo in the summer called Sample Version. The Sample Version is still an early version and the release is changed by further updating the download on my patreon.

This demo is mixed so far, but appreciated from the comments under the video walkthrough of my hack from Razor & Zenon and Amy Rose longplays. According to the comments, so far it is normal, but now, so far, I have been given advice under the comment about a change in further development after the demo. (Some comments have been removed under the video due to the deletion of their channel account on YouTube and I can not tell you unfortunately.)

After the release of the demo and video. There was a person who made the famous splash art of the Japanese megadrive logo, Zana GB. He looked and didn't like it because of the splash screen of his art, so I took it and was able to add something and didn't add it in the credits without his permission on my patreon and started accusing me in his twitter.

That's look's funny, I know.

Later that day, I wrote my reply to Zana on my twitter to this splash screen and ended in peace: https://twitter.com/whitey_tw/status/1032752503870369792

SEEMINGLY! :)

I decided to release a subsequent version of the demo about removing the splash screen from Zana at the end of 2018. I planned to release it by the fall, but I was busy with other things with the social network.

In the spring of 2019, released a trailer showing the next level of SYZ and SLZ except SBZ. Since SBZ has not yet started with level building, how long it took to develop the next level building above SYZ and SLZ, fixes and plans are new chips in this hack.

On August 21, 2019, the hack was canceled due to my reasons and failure due to the last demo from 2018, which I wrote the status in my profile on CIS and a post on my Patreon.

So far, somewhere at the end of 2019 and the whole year of 2020, there has not been any of my news about my hacks, which I canceled since August 2019.

Reasons for the failure of the first demo (Sample Version) in 2018:

Firstly, I want to note the name of my hack "Sonic 1 The Mystic Realm", it is the word that is used for the name of the hack "The Mystic Realm", belongs to the name of the mod of the fan game Sonic Robo Blast 2 to the addition of the level of The Mystic Realm from 2003 and 2006 years.

Actually it was invented at the end of 2016 as a "fan idea", but in the end of 2018 and 2019, I was wrong...

And secondly, backgrounds and music that can be taken without permission. Music, which can be taken from another hack without permission, but the use of music in the zone and act was never used, because the music is used from Sonic 2, 3 and knuckles, 3D blast and other games from Sega on a mega drive.

I told you the reasons for the failure. What? The plan fell through since 2019 due to cancellation. ¯\_( ◉ 3 ◉ )_/¯

That's all I could tell about the story and the undoing of my hack. I would of course leave downloading my latest build, but I can share it with you as you wish. But I won't give you the SourceCode if you will stole from my hack.

Link to download my latest build: s1tmrbuild 21.08.2019 Latest build.gen

I remind you that this is the final build of my hack and I won't going to go back to fix and develop on my and the other hack with a further plan to change!

Also, I want to say a special thank who helped me in my hack:

Elaymm4 - discussed, helped in my hack, tested and then I don't remember

FlyTF (Fly) - helped some chips with SMPS and others in my hack.

Catswell - it is not clear why I added. Idk. It seems that he ever helped with my hack or not...

SHooTeR - Bug fix for special stage star tiles from Sonic 2 (Not used in the demo yet, but it was planned to add this already in the finished version with tile fixes)
