Sonic Adventure 2 Remake job - Avalon Games LLC

About the Project:

This project is a fan remake of Sonic Adventure 2, it will not be profit based at all as that would get the project shut down and a potential lawsuit. However you will be free to share your work to the online community and start your own patreon for support from the community + ability to stream on twitch what you are working on for the project and accept donations via twitch/paypal/etc. However we will not be able to make any money off the remake itself. We will make the game publicly available and free to those who wish to download / play it.

Why a Remake:

You might be asking yourself why would we want to remake an 20 year old game? Well honestly I have always loved sonic games and more specifically the adventure series was my favorite of the sonic games. Fans have asked SEGA over and over again to add the Chao Garden into their games however unfortunately their requests have fallen on deaf ears and thus there have been fan made projects that contained the Chao Garden such as: Sonic World which is using the dated Blitz3D engine however I want to bring the past enjoyment I got from playing sonic adventure 2 into the future for the children and adults alike who played the original to experience/relive the game again in HD graphics. Unfortunately due to the age of the game it is in much need of a remake due to the outdated graphics/game engine that was used to originally create it and thus that is why I have turned to UE4 for the remake.
