Today we added the spin dash to Sonic Dream Team. This was a long time coming, and required tons of tweaking and testing to get it to feel right, especially the slope stuff. Have fun rolling around at the speed of sound 😁

Fast Fusion is euphoric flow state transcendental experiences on tap. My god, literally just making the vehicles move around is sublime.

And so after an amazing two weeks, I say goodbye to Japan. Though this is not “sayonara”, it’s “mata ne” 😉

At an arcade in Takadanobaba, Shinjuku, this bin has a sticker featuring Tails, and it appears to be over 30 years old.

This is now a Sonic-spotting travel blog until next Friday apparently. Sonic X Shadow Generations poster in Labi Shinjuku’s game section

Super Potato apparently has a little Sonic corner selling some little bits of merch

I bought it (¥2,500 is about £13.25)

Various tunes from Sonic 1 can be heard from this crane game in Akihabara. You can win crisps (potato chips for USA readers)!

I have finally journeyed to Japan after years of saying I would visit one day! Photos do not do the size of Tokyo justice. Literally an urban sprawl to the horizon!

Our latest update for Sonic Dream Team is now out! As a big fan of SA1 I recreated the Jump Panel mechanic and we have used it throughout the new update ☺️ Also it’s my birthday today!

Hello new followers! Here’s some vintage #Sonic comics from both Archie and Fleetway that greet you as you enter Hardlight’s office:

Been thinking of replaying the Sonic series from the beginning, streaming it all on twitch, going over my thoughts and perspectives. Not sure if folk would watch but it would help me get my thoughts out I guess 😅

Advance screening!

Marvel Rivals crashes a lot. Like, A LOT a lot. It’s genuinely awful lmao

I’ve been playing Soul Reaver since a magazine had a demo of the game featuring a small part of an unfinished lighthouse area that was over in less than a minute. You climbed up a cliff and hit some dude, fade to black. Even just that demo had something compelling about it.
Happy Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Day everyone!

Here's an hour long documentary on the past, present and possible future of this series.

It's quite the wild ride. We hope you enjoy it.

It's nice playing a hot new popular pvp game at launch, but over time the complexity and difficulty will necessarily increase as more content is added for monetisation purposes. Unfortunately, the likelihood of adding, say, an untintentionally overpowered hero or an awful meta will only increase.

I’d also like to show off the little sonic demo I was working on prior to joining HARDlight. While I had plenty of professional experience, this demo certainly helped me land the role. (This is not an official SEGA project and none of its code is in Dream Team!) youtu.be/XdlSzhEie4A?...

Today marks the one year anniversary of the launch of Sonic Dream Team. Working on it was quite the ride, joining at the start of 2022 and getting to work with the IP that matters to me the most.
This one was important for both professional growth but also personal growth.
