Sonic Chaos Series

Official blog for the Chaos Series fanfic series!

Obligatory About Post

S'up? So if you're here, you're probably curious about the project. Lucky for you, I'm here to explain! The Chaos Series is a Sonic AU that rewrites a lot of stuff just to fix issues within the Sonic franchise. The characters are put back on track and those who were from another dimension are no longer from 200 years into the future. We actively encourage people to participate in this, especially if you, like us, wish SEGA could not only keep the personalities of the characters on-model, but that they would create higher-quality games. In all honesty, this project is a love letter to the series we all grew up with.

(section TBA)

As for the developers, we are:

Name: LB Pronouns: she/her Role: Lead developer, composer, artist, sprite artist, designer Favorite Sonic Character: Metal Sonic, Sonic and Manic Favorite Sonic Game: Sonic Adventure 2 or Sonic Unleashed

Name: Ever Pronouns: they/he Role: character artist/animator Favorite Sonic Character: sliver! Favorite Sonic Game: sonic unleashed/sonic rush

Name: Lux Pronouns:  They/Them Role: Sprite artist and developer Favorite Sonic Character: Either Sonic or Shadow... Or Tails Favorite Sonic Game: Unleashed

Each of the six games will have a few things in common:

Codes that show off concept art, dev commentary, jokes and more!

Cheat codes

The return of "all non-boss enemies go down in one hit"

The return of decent characterization and development

Alright, we've gone through some major changes and we're excited to announce that the very first part of the Chaos Series - a fic called Amy's Adventure - will be released soon!

We went through a lot deciding what medium to make this with (video games just weren't working out, making a comic got too complicated, etc.), so we went with written fanfic. I'll be fixing up the pinned post to have all the updated information!

The fic as a whole (the entire Chaos Series) is going to be rated for teen and up audiences. We're thinking 15+.

As for Amy's Adventure, it takes place during Sonic Adventure 2 and follows Amy as she tries to be a brave hero! (It gets dark though. Seriously, teen and up audiences.)

[sonicchaosseries]

It's with excitement that I announce some big news!

First, we have our game lineup almost completely planned out - and it's planned to me a lot more than just six games.

Second, the story has been moved up to happening about a year after Sonic Adventure 2, with the first game taking the place of Sonic Heroes.

Third, we have a new member on the team who I'll be adding to the blog soon!

Fourth, development for the first game will begin on January first, 2023!

Two variants of some Knuckles and Rouge art I did. The shading was meant to go with the blue overlay, but I thought it looked pretty good without it, too!

If you like it, please reblog it! It helps more people see my art and means a lot to me. ^^

✨ Feel free to ask questions about the games or on any updates or if you just want to know about the mods! We have lots of things cooking up and can't wait to show you but until then don't be afraid to ask those curious questions on things whether just on sonic or any characters, levels, bosses etc. ✨

Some various drawings and sketches I've done.

Look at my OC. /lh

[forgottensonicfacts]

In Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Sonic statues are found in Hydrocity Zone, and art of Sonic fighting an Eggman Mech is depicted in Hidden Palace Zone.

Both of these areas are on Angel Island, and therefore thousands of years old.

General Update

So! Big update post!

1: We're working on a game to showcase our coding and iron out all the problems before we dive into Uncontrollable Chaos. This game will be titled Ashura the Hedgehog and will be a more villainous game than the rest of the Chaos Series. We'll release a new Ashura the Hedgehog game whenever we need to test out new mechanics, with an in-universe explanation being that the bots were updated, Agatha learned something new/got a new toy, or Ashura's been trained in something new and now it all has to be tested in some missions.

2: I'm making new sprites, using a custom sprite base that'll make things generally look better and more polished. So far, the average height Mobian sprite base is done, as well as Sonic. Still need to do the small and tall Mobian sprites, as well as the tall and small human sprites. Also robot sprites done as-needed.

3: We have the full timeline, as well as game synopses, finished up. Expect an update to the pinned post soon.

4: We also have most character reference sheets half-way done, at least for their first appearances in the games.

5: The reason for the big hiatus is that I had to move and couldn't work on anything aside from art and writing/planning.

6: Expect more posts and more frequent posts soon! Please send in questions or comments, we love answering you guys!

We're working on big things!

So a fun fact about Super Knuckles

The pink colour is intentional

As Sonic is originally a Japanese property, some cultural things are perceived differently than in the West.

In Japanese culture pink is perceived as a masculine and mournful color that represents “young warriors who fall in battle while in the full bloom of life.” (source)

So in a sense, Super Knuckles is the representation of the Echidna unlocking the full power of his ancestors, and unleashing it as his own force.

my favorite video game quest trope is "HELP US, THEY ARE STEALING OUR ANCIENT ARTIFACT. THANK YOU FOR HELPING US, AS A REWARD YOU MAY HAVE OUR ANCIENT ARTIFACT"

[6qubed]

the ancient artifact was less important than having agency in its distribution

[suinicide]

Nothing is more important than keeping it out of the hands of the British museum

Question for all of you (with a poll!)

In the first Sonic Adventure game, you got to play around on what was called the Adventure Field for each area, which was basically a hub for the various stages. It allows for extra worldbuilding, quick and easy access to levels and the general overall ability to find hidden little fun things all over the place, talk to NPCs, go to a hotel, somehow get into a casino at the ripe old age of 15 and overall just have a blast. However, I can see how some people would view these as tedious, as it means going from one level to the next means virtual legwork to travel from one place to another. From a developer's standpoint, this is a dream though, it means you get to really explore the world and I don't have to make a worldmap with selectable level icons. lol

Anyway, I'm going to ask you guys if you want this before I make any massive decisions. Do you want Adventure Fields in the games (because yes, this will likely impact the entire Chaos Series)?

What's your opinion? Vote now: Yes - this sounds fun and easier on the developer, No - I'd rather fast-travel between levels, I don't really

Sorry about the lack of progress updates! Ever lost his tablet cord and we've all three been busy with concepts and ideas and overall making the game.

[sonicchaosseries]

my tablet died, but i guess i can take traditional (watercolours or coloured pencil?) requests?
