Simply put, 150 frames for 17 seconds of finished work. Not sure if I'll continue these. I may. Post your thoughts.

I commented on your vid
Its good and if you keep making the frames smoother it will soon look like smbz.

Very impessive for your age but poor sprite choices are poor.

Yeah you're right, simply put I made the diamond shape attack's outline for the transition of it becoming solid and basically screwed with it in Paint.NET changing the transparency and what-not, instead of using an actual black hole sprite. Looking back at it, I wish I'd have done that. But there's always room from improvement.

I suggest you use 16-bit sprites, not because I mostly like older style things but because lets say Sonic 3 sprites would look better than Sonic Advanced sprites.

Yeah I was thinking that after doing this, but I was trying to give Metal Sonic a "Oh look a new design look!" But that didn't work, and it kinda looked awkward. Especially with those animals.
