After a long delay in news and several setbacks, the core characters, (Sonic, Tails, Amy, Knuckles) now have a full set of animations which are currently being added to the game. Further work on implementing new features into the codebase and updating the melee system beyond the spin dash attack, stomp and knuckles punch combos is ongoing with the inclusion of Tails gadget weaponry and Amy swinging of the hammer.
More updates to the physics code and revisiting the tech demo has been underway in recent months refocusing on the Beach area, adding new exploratory areas and planning for how each character could interact with the environment along with updating the art style to be more inline with the current official Sonic games and tv shows stylized cartoon visual style.

You are still alive, guys?
By the time this is released it will be a Unreal Engine 7 game.
Wow I remember following this when it was a UT2k4 mod. I'm glad to see you guys are still kicking. Keep up the good work!

Hey, if you guys need any music or whatnot, I'm happy to help out, same with any writing or whatnot. I've been waiting for this game for a while and would love to help out if it's needed. here's my soundcloud: soundcloud.com/steven_kane
Project really needs 3d modelers more than anything at the moment. Music is last on the agenda during the current production phase.
I remember hearing about this game when I first got into the Sonic fan game scheme but I thought it was abandoned
It's amazing how long you've been working on this!
I can draw, animate in Blender and make 2d pixel art (sprites), and I can also write if you need help with the story or need dialogue, however, I do not have any knowledge in programming outside of a few very specific coding languages used only in certain engines (Such as game maker and mugen)
My drawing, animating and writing skills aren't perfect (far from it, in my opinion) since I'm still learning, but I would hate to see this project die...
I can help with some level designing and such, and make some concept art, or if you need any animations for some models
This project looks very interesting and I love it's darker take on the Sonic universe.
I'll probably not be able to dedicate my FULL time to this because of school, but I would like to help in any way I can! =)
My DeviantArt: thedarklordofcookies.deviantart.com (I know it doesn't have a lot in it, but it's because it's a new one that I made about two months ago and lately I've been focusing on finishing the first chapter of my comic so I haven't posted much)
I can understand your thoughts on it being abandonded due to my lack of posts over the past year. Checked out your work over on deviantart. I've sent you an email.
Could you make it in Unreal Engine 4?
No. There is no real valid reason to make ADR on UE4
