Freedom planet 2 sample version banner12/12/2023 ![]() Do you plan to bring this out on other consoles? ![]() G: You mentioned this is coming out on Steam. She’s kind of like the mage in a sense, so she’s got less life but her attacks a bit stronger. 2, and she can summon a psychic shield in front of her and aim it to reflect enemy attacks. She’s more like a Nintendo character, like she has a flutter kind of like Yoshi and she can summon and throw these green blocks, like Super Mario Bros. There’s a third playable character, Milla. A lot of people get a kick out of her motorcycle. When I made, I kind of just went with what was fun, not necessarily with realism. S: Yeah, her motorcycle defies gravity sometimes, like you can drive straight up walls. G: I saw she was riding up the walls with it. She’s a little bit slower, but she also has a motorcycle she can ride, which doubles her speed and makes her attacks more powerful. She’s got kind of like a Chun Li kick as a special and she can jump on walls like Mega Man X. I’d compare her more like a Capcom character. She’s more technical based, like she has really fast punches and kicks and can also wall jump. ![]() The second playable character is Carol, who is a green wildcat. She has this boosting move where she can dash like a comet in eight different direction, kind of like Sparkster- Rocket Knight–and she can also whip enemies with her hair. The main Sonic similarities come from Lilac because she’s the fast character. S: Yeah, every character is completely different. G: So I’m seeing right here, Carol was using a motorcycle. There’s only been like one or two cases where I had helped out, and one case was because she was a little two-year-old kid. It’s kind of interesting seeing how everyone is learning how to play the game through the way the levels are designed and nobody’s really gotten stuck yet. A lot of people have said, “We’ll buy it!” We’ve got two stages that are playable here right now: the first stage Dragon Valley, and the third stage Fortune Night. G: A lot of people have been liking it here at Florida Supercon? So far, the feedback’s been really positive. ![]() A lot of people are getting excited about it. So since then, it’s grown so much and it’s really interesting how much the game has evolved in the past three years since we worked on it. When we originally started it, I started it as kind of a nod to Sonic with some small Flash project, but we had a Kickstarter at some point and it was amazing. ![]() Strife: It is basically a nod to ’90s-style Japanese platform games, like Sonic, Mega Man, and a little bit of Gunstar Heroes too with the bosses. Gene: Tell us a little about Freedom Planet and what it’s about. There, I met with the lead programmer and creator of the game Stephen “Strife” DiDuro. Given its origins as a Sonic fangame that grew to its own style and found great success not only on Kickstarter but on Steam’s Greenlight service, Galaxy Trail’s presence at Supercon definitely warranted checking in on the game, now that its Steam release of July 19 is just around the corner. You know, the typical thing that will send heroes out to smack a few baddies in the face. Taking cues from Sonic The Hedgehog, Sparkster (or Rocket Knight, if you prefer), Ristar, and Pulseman among others, Freedom Planet stars speedster Sash Lilac, the brawler and biker Carol Tea, and the timid but imaginative Milla Basset, on a journey to save the land of Avalice from certain peril. Joining the likes of Yacht Club Games’ Shovel Knight and Dennaton Games’ Hotline Miami 2 was a small group under the banner of Galaxy Trail, makers of Freedom Planet.įor those unfamiliar with Freedom Planet, take a moment to consider the halcyon era of the MegaDrive. Invading the Miami Beach Convention Center located a stones throw from South Beach during the Fourth of July weekend, the event featured several game development studios showing their works. Miami is known for quite a lot of things, but a burgeoning event for comic and game aficionados of South Florida, the Florida Supercon, bubbled to one of its biggest shows yet. ![]()
