Ray's idle animation is a reference to this early Sonic art.

This artwork was previously referenced in Generations, as well. Wonder if he does the rest of those poses...

I would think they would use palette's from Good/Bad Future from CD before they did an Adventure reference.

Bad Future makes sense cause Eggman is there. But Good Future ? I don´t see the point of using it. That´s why I think the Act 1 background would be dawn. But ok, we will see it.

Plus, it is fine they will make a different time cycle for most of the zones.

Hello, I'm new to here!

I think I just discovered the glitchy angel island zone leak video (not made by me).

Looks like he posted at May 6th.

I think he used debug mode glitch in v1.0.4.(In PS4 Version)

Wait, so Ray is actually Heavy Magician in disguise?

Plus, she intentionally captured Mighty to lure in Sonic, Tails, & Knuckles?

[crm0622]

How to do the spoiler tag?

Nevermind, I wasn't paying attention to the Topic Title

If this is legit, then it looks very cool.

I tried to access this area in Angel Island using debug mode (as I have version 1.04) but couldn't access it. You can't activate debug mode during a cutscene...

Those animations are too good to be fake, and that full Angel Island track...

[Jango]

What, how? This is almost finished.

Have you tried this glitch?

 

[mikeblastdude]

Wow, nice find! It's nice to finally see a bit of Angel Island Zone in playable form, even if buggy and unfinished. The full version of the music is great, as expected.

[kergo]

Is it me or the video includes a slightly different rendition of the HBH mischief track? I swear I can hear additional voice clips...

[Tracker_TD]

So uh

Yeah

Supposing this is real and not just a very good 'intentionally buggy' mod (we'll see how many other people can access it), this is a nice touch. I'm a bit disappointed Angel Island doesn't run a little longer, just to give Plus a bit more of a proper extra level, though it's nice nostalgia all the same.

Someone is streaming encore mode.

In case you want to see it,

Yeah, I noticed this.

I managed to glitch into Angel Island and managed to get the encore version of Green Hill as well, but only the first act of GH before the game reset itself (gonna upload a video shortly).

Obviously as per that stream, you can get a lot more of encore mode.

[TheOcelot]

I've uploaded a video. ENJOY!

 

[Jango]

Any new zone or just Angel Island?

[Diogenes]

Oh, there's something I wasn't expecting.

Spoiler

All new non-Tornado Mirage Saloon act 1.

Looks like Mirage Saloon Act 1 is now a full non-plane stage for Sonic now in Encore Mode!

So technically not a new zone, but still a brand new full act.

[TheOcelot]

 I've played through the entire Encore version of Green Hill (has some different enemy and object placement and some special stage rings are in different locations) but no matter what I try I always end up in normal Chemical Plant after I transition from Green Hill. That's frustrating!

If I enter a bonus stage (it does have the new pinball bonus stage, just the normal blue sphere), once it finishes it just takes me back to the title screen.

I think the trick used on the stream was to use Debug Mode to skip the transitions. I think the scripted transitions break the Encore connection.

Try that maybe?

I've done a playthrough of Angel Island, Green Hill, Chemical Plant & Studiopolis in Encore mode:

 

[BlueFlare]

Nice to hear full Angel Island theme. Also, I feel so bad seeing the snowy mountains (Ice Cap) in the horizon. That made me dream of Sonic 3 but with Mania engine.
