So, I'm experiencing slowdown. Do you have any new solutions for slowdowns? I've followed the instructions but I will either get the game running close to a normal speed with skipped frames or the game running slow with smooth frames, It's weird.
I should have been more patient. Anyway thanks for replaying. If I find a solution I'll let you know about it.
Edit: Something about manually moving the files to a different folder will cause slowdown or it was just a bad extraction. Extracting again was all I needed to do. I'm playing at full speed now.
This fangame has some serious design issues which make the game itself significantly more frustrating to play.
1. The graphics are great, but the camera is WAY too zoomed in! I thought that the game would take advantage of the fact that it's widescreen, but the camera is so zoomed in that it makes the game disorienting and there's not enough time to react to anything. The camera should be more like Sonic Mania or any of Christian Whitehead's remakes. Instead, it ends up being like Sonic 4's.
2. The level design needs a lot more work. The enemy placement just isn't good, and I kept running into badniks that were almost impossible to avoid. The way that the levels are stacked makes the player repeat long segments of it if they miss a single jump. This makes the levels very repetitive and long.
3. The physics don't feel right. There's not enough momentum, Super Sonic doesn't have any special abilities, and the super peel out is practically useless because of how long it takes to charge. On the other hand, the spindash is overpowered. Also, some of the music is wrong, like how the invincibility music is from S&K, not 3dB.
4. The way special stages are handled is by far the worst part of the game! I never liked the giant rings because you shouldn't have to slow down and explore a level in a Sonic game. That's why Shadow the Hedgehog got so much criticism. The special stages themselves have even more issues. The controls are WAY too slippery to even be remotely manageable, and the reaction time is horrible due to the speed and very short render distance of the rings and bombs. These special stages are nearly impossible to beat. The bridge stages from the original 3d Blast are way better and I'm surprised that you didn't use those. The half-pipe is far too overused anyway, and this is an opportunity to come up with something new.
Overall, this game is very flawed in terms of design. And this is coming from someone who's completed almost every Sonic game! I see a lot of potential here, but for now, I'd rather play the original 3d Blast.
I am trying to find a way to make the game not crashed but I can't seem to find someone who can explain why it is crashing. (I hope someone could help cuz I really like this game)
I've been messing around with adding a custom soundtrack recently, but my music doesn't want to loop. I've made sure each file is in .ogg format, and converted the seconds over to milliseconds in LoopInfo.txt (e.g. 24977 for 24.977 seconds), but still nothing. For what it's worth, I've only tested it out in the Music Options menu, but the Mega Drive and Saturn soundtracks loop well enough.
Am I just doing something wrong, or is the game bugged somehow?
Okay, so I just tested a few tracks outside of the Music Options, and they loop just fine. Odd that it doesn't do that within the options, though.
I did encounter a rather glaring oversight, though: If you've set Panic Puppet 1's music to custom, it doesn't play during the opening cutscene. I know that the game is reading the file correctly, because it plays in the Music Options menu… just not during that particular instance. I haven't gotten far enough in the game to test to see if it in the Zone itself, but I assume that if it works in Options, then it'll work in-game.
A lesser, but still annoying bug is that some Custom settings revert to Mega Drive when going into Music Options. It isn't every one, though; I've noticed it for Green Grove 1, the Super music, and a handful of others.
I'll be looking into those, thank you for reporting! EDIT: I fixed the issue for the loop in the menu and the problem with the tracks resetting to "MD", but I didn't have the issue in the story screen, the custom music for panic puppet zone played correctly. I'll be uploading those fixes with version 1.15. Thanks again!
ugh, this is my mistake but i want to say it anyways, the save file needs a backup in case of accidental selecting new game (in my case when i enter the extra menu instead of choosing continue and believing that B work like cancel/return)
my game is already a little slow for some unknown reason and completing a character is already a work of my patience, collecting the 7 emeralds is a different subject, and doing a second run with a character because i choose new game by mistake takes all my energy and force me to play another game to cooldown
after a night of sleep i calmed myself, and i'm kind of embarrassed of my comment, by my point of view it looks like i'm blaming you, that wasn't my purpose at all, maybe you didn't saw it that way but i wouldn't feel fine until i make it clear, it was my fault for not paying attention while playing
i will do that, i finished the game with amy but didn't collect emeralds, when i tried to replay to collect the emeralds i made that mistake, and now i'm playing with her again, but will take a while, and actually found a funny bug in the previous run:
sorry for the low quality, i take the picture with my phone to send it to whatsapp, i was fighting eggman but i used the hammer to late so he hit me and while falling back, tails grabbed me, resulting in that, tails is froze there and i can move like it should while grabbed by tails, the bug fixed when i jump
and about the slowdown, is random now, when i opened the game today, it was almost without slowdown, since the moment i extract the new version i add the "/MIS1", sometimes work and other times don't, i feel it's my pc
A problem with ... Flying Shadow? and Infinite Boost? Well, what happens is that when I do the spin dash and hold down and press "B" shadow it can boost, and also when I do Homming Attack and press "B" shadow it can do it again, making it jump infinitely (I discovered all this without the energy of the boost and with version 1.13)
Edit:Shadow crosses walls for some reason ._. it only happens with breakable walls
Greetings, you might recognize me as the one who also noticed the prison egg glitch in my friend's playthrough of this game on YouTube. I recently downloaded it to do a playthrough myself and it was working perfectly fine a few days ago, but now for some unknown reason, the controls don't work; I can only pause the game, but that's it. I can't even move the characters, scroll through the main menu or title screen. Is there any possible way you can fix that?
Hello, can you try to reset the controls? Access the Data/Profiles folder and delete the "last" file. The next time you start the game it will ask you to remap every command.
In my journey to beat the game with every single character, I found out that in Volcano Valley Act 2, close to a switch that allows to access a giant room of lava with a fire shield, you can go out of bounds by going upward and it leads you to a strangely white place with lava that doesn't damage the character.
- How did you even trigger the clip into the ceiling with shadow!?
- And the super gravity? wow, this one will be crazy to trigger!
- The homing forces some camera motion that should be disabled when it is locked. I guess I'm forced to disable that homing code whenever the camera is blocked to prevent that glitchy behaviour.
Once more, thank you for reporting, Mastakirby! The camera ones will be rather easy to fix, and I'll find a way to fix the other two as well.
Hello, the problem you have is related to analog stick controls that affects some pads. I think I managed to solve the issue and I'll release a fix with version 1.13.
At the moment you can set up your controls to use the cross of your pad, or set up the keyboard.
I feel like the complete lack of anything resembling the flicky-collecting mechanic sort of detracts from the game. Not necessarily saying rescuing the flickies should be mandatory, but perhaps there could be some type of advantage or incentive for focusing on them (extra points for clearing an act with them, maybe?) Also, I'm not really too huge on the presence of Sonic 2's special stages and the peel out from Sonic CD, as they feel a bit out of place here. This is an interesting idea though, and I like the concept. The minibosses caught me off guard at first, but they're a welcome/unique addition. The 2D levels generally resemble their isometric counterparts quite well.
i fell like the special stages are a tad too hard, and the enemy placement is not that good. i liked how you got the emeralds in the first 2 first acts, and i first believed that the SP stages would just be a way to get the emeralds early, and that made me OK with the very hard SP stages, but after beating spring stadium, i realized that was not the case. Could you make the player slower in the SP stages to fix this? or have more giant rings?
1: no matter how many times i try to input the MIS1 and OLDPAUSE, the game still go with the same speed, i'm already fine playing like that, maybe is some compatibility issues with windows 10 or i just have bad luck
2: is normal to enter another zone with a shield? i will explain more, i'm playing with knuckles and got a electric shield in rusty ruin act 2 and defeated eggman, then when i was teleported to spring stadium i'm still having the electric shield, google can't help to know if this is something normal in sonic 3 and knuckles or not so i can call it a bug or not
Hello, if you complete a stage with a shield, you'll carry it over (except into Final Fight). It's an intended feature added with version 1.06 when I upgraded the save system.
Compared to Sonic 3 & Knuckles this game has lower chances to get a shield, so this was added to reward good play and offset the lowered shield chance a little.
At the moment there is a bug between Rusty Ruin 1 and Rusty Ruin 2 and in that case the shield doesn't carry over. It will be fixed when 1.10 hits.
Hello,Sotaknuck. I'm letting you know that your game is fantastic and, even if I've never played 3D Blast before, I still had a blast with it. By the time I write this, I've played through the Sonic campaign+ the Chaos Emerald. Speaking of it, the Special Stages were kind of difficult for me at first ( I always had trouble with Sonic's 2 kind of stage), but once I got the gist of things, it felt like a breeze and I was actually having fun with them. The diffuculty is well balanced ( though i had trouble with Panic Puppet zone's boss battle act 1). From what i've seen, the sprites looked really polished (especially for Tails,Knuckles and Super Sonic) but I will say that the very final boss of the game once you have the Chaos Emerald looked odd, by that I mean he looked more 8 bit than 16.
Overall, as you can already guess, I had a great time with Sonic 3D in 2D and I look forward to any project that you might do in the future
How do I get the cheat system for the game? The special stage is ridiculously hard! Anyone else having the same problem? Love the game otherwise! The attention to detail, dedication, and creativity are amazing! Thank you for putting this game together! I've been playing it almost every day!
Thank you for playing! Don't give up with the spcial stages, they are not as hard as they seem:
* Most of the ring patterns are immediately close to the previous line or on the opposite side. You'll be able to identify them and react accordingly. It's meant to be fast, it's meant to have you miss a lot of rings. The amount of ring is very high, every section has more than 3x the requested amount.
* Don't rely on standing on the ground to quickly move on the other side of the screen, jump instead.
* If you need to grab the spiral of rings, tap your controller instead of keeping the button pressed.
* If you light tap, Sonic stays in place for a few moments in its wall run
Do not worry too much about them in your first game, you'll be able to repeatedly play Green Grove Zone and try the special stages as many times as you need, just like S3K or Mania.
Thank you for the reply and tips! It is so greatly appreciated you taking the time to help me! I did get one emerald on my own, starting to get the hang of it!
hi, i watch a gameplay about this game and i want to play it, but my internet connection fails on every try, it's possible to add another way to download this game?
i didn't know it was there too, on the next actualization i will try from there (after many tries, it actually finished the download, but takes so much time)
For any Linux users out there I have made some Lutris installers for the last couple of versions of S3D2d. Lutris is a Linux game client that aims to make Windows and other games easy to install. The installers can be found at https://lutris.net/games/sonic-3d-in-2d/. The installers haven't been blessed by the Lutris devs yet, but seem to work well on my laptop with Intel graphics. Hope it is okay that I post this here. Thanks for the hard work Sotaknuck!
I really appreciate your effort, as it allows people on a different platform to enjoy my game! I'll put the link into the install instructions as well!
Could you add an option to chose a bigger resolution than 2x or at least with full screen keep the aspect ratio the same and not just forcing it to 16:9
Hello, do you think that you could make a video tutorial on how to add custom music? The instructions in the Loop Info file aren't clear enough for me to understand.
1 - Put the music you want in the Custom folder (Example "mymusic.ogg")
2 - Open LoopInfo. Let's say "mymusic.ogg" is the music you want for GreenGrove Act1. Look for the tag of the stage and put the file in the File= line without any quotes like the example below
If you want the music to loop at a specific moment, you write the loop times in milliseconds. If you leave 0 the music will repeat at their end instead.
3 - Save the file and start the game. Go to the Music Options, find green grove act 1 and press A to switch to your custom music.
4 - Press B to listen to your track, then go to Accept to save this setting.
Hello. I'm new to this and not sure how to make the exe file. Everytime I run the game regularly, I can't move in the special stages (I can jump but can't move directions). I'm using a logitech controller. I hope this is address in 1.10 because It's impossible for me to get bonuses.
Hello, not sure what causes the problem with logitech controllers. May I suggest you to set up the keyboard for the moment? Also, can you try to make a shortcut with the /OLDPAUSE command and see if your controller works in special stages with it?

This looks fun. I'll definitely play this.
If you haven't added it yet, maybe Fang and Amy as extra unlockable characters?
Hello, Amy is already one of the 5 unlockable characters, but there are no plans for a playable Nack.

So, I'm experiencing slowdown. Do you have any new solutions for slowdowns? I've followed the instructions but I will either get the game running close to a normal speed with skipped frames or the game running slow with smooth frames, It's weird.
Damn, no response?
I really wanted to play this game but I guess I just can't.
I'm sorry, I am unable to check comments 24/7...
I have no idea about what could cause slowdowns on your system. The specs seems more than adequate.
I tested the game on a 2012 win 7 pc with a 2.2 Ghz i7 and it runs without issues.
I also tested on a GPDwin2 whose specs are inferior to your system and I experience no slowdowns as well with no need for /MIS1 commands
Try to see if there are too many processes active on your end that may affect the game's performance
I should have been more patient. Anyway thanks for replaying. If I find a solution I'll let you know about it.
Edit: Something about manually moving the files to a different folder will cause slowdown or it was just a bad extraction. Extracting again was all I needed to do. I'm playing at full speed now.
Great, good to hear it is working as it should!
another blueberry pie type game
in other words:good job on making the game
Thanks! Enjoy the game and unlock all the characters!
i think i gonna make a vid on this game soon
Post a link to it here then!

I agree with this, Mostly about the Special Stages, I can't see 5 feet in front of me, making me miss most of the rings.
I am trying to find a way to make the game not crashed but I can't seem to find someone who can explain why it is crashing. (I hope someone could help cuz I really like this game)
Which windows version are you using? Do you have the direct X libraries installed?
The direct X libraries? (I use windows 10)
I mean I have directx 12
I'm sorry, but I don't know what it could cause the game to crash, you seem to satisfy the requirements for it to run...
Oh, It's ok.
Wait, I think the xinput thing like is bug or crash since I look at it and I don't know if it is normal or not. (Nvm, it is just normal)
Ok, so the game stop crashing and I can play now.
I don't know why but for some reason, everytime I open the game, it crashed after some few seconds making it impossible for me to play
Does anyone know why it crashed?
When I Try To Download Sonic 3D In 2D RAR, Its Fails And When I Restart The Download It Its Done But The RAR Has 0 bytes, What Do I Do?
There are no RAR files for download. Both are Zip files.
If you have issues downloading fom here, other than try to download again at a later time you could try download Sonic 3D in 2D from Gamejolt instead.
Thanks!

Am I just doing something wrong, or is the game bugged somehow?
Which track are you trying to replace? I will check if there is a problem with the loopback controls.
Also, does it happen on every track?
Okay, so I just tested a few tracks outside of the Music Options, and they loop just fine. Odd that it doesn't do that within the options, though.
I did encounter a rather glaring oversight, though: If you've set Panic Puppet 1's music to custom, it doesn't play during the opening cutscene.

ugh, this is my mistake but i want to say it anyways, the save file needs a backup in case of accidental selecting new game (in my case when i enter the extra menu instead of choosing continue and believing that B work like cancel/return)
my game is already a little slow for some unknown reason and completing a character is already a work of my patience, collecting the 7 emeralds is a different subject, and doing a second run with a character because i choose new game by mistake takes all my energy and force me to play another game to cooldown

It's ok, once you'll reach the "All Clear" state for a save game, you could always backup the "save" file in the "Data" Directory.
About your slowdown, did you try to use the /MIS1 solution in the troubleshooting section and run the game from a shortcut?
i will do that, i finished the game with amy but didn't collect emeralds, when i tried to replay to collect the emeralds i made that mistake, and now i'm playing with her again, but will take a while, and actually found a funny bug in the previous run:
sorry for the low quality, i take the picture with my phone to send it to whatsapp, i was fighting eggman but i used the hammer to late so he hit me and while falling back, tails grabbed me, resulting in that, tails is froze there and i can move like it should while grabbed by tails, the bug fixed when i jump
and about the slowdown, is random now, when i opened the game today, it was almost without slowdown, since the moment i extract the new version i add the "/MIS1", sometimes work and other times don't, i feel it's my pc
Oh...wow, this bug is interesting! Thank you for reporting!
EDIT: It was an issue with the Hurt flag. Tails should not grab you when you're hurt. It will be patched in 1.15.
A problem with ... Flying Shadow? and Infinite Boost? Well, what happens is that when I do the spin dash and hold down and press "B" shadow it can boost, and also when I do Homming Attack and press "B" shadow it can do it again, making it jump infinitely (I discovered all this without the energy of the boost and with version 1.13)
Edit:Shadow crosses walls for some reason ._. it only happens with breakable walls
I'll have a look into those issues. They're probably side effects to the latest bugfixes. Thank you!
Cool Fan Game

Hello! That's Act1 actually! There is a collision-less ceiling tile in that wall. I'll fix it right away! Thank you! This one was nasty!
EDIT: Fixed for 1.13! Thanks!
YEAH!!!!
i found too before that update (this image is before the recent update)
sorry with my bad english

Once more, thank you for reporting, Mastakirby! The camera ones will be rather easy to fix, and I'll find a way to fix the other two as well.
Did you tackle the achievements added with V1.10?
I saw the list and I can say these won't be easy, but I'll give it a shot!
But without the zip
Can you also add sonic 3d in 2d for Android and iOS?
no because legal stuff
Ok thanks I already set up the controls and keyboard IL wait for the fix
can you fix the special stage control cause i cant move
Hello, the problem you have is related to analog stick controls that affects some pads. I think I managed to solve the issue and I'll release a fix with version 1.13.

I would like this some more character cream the rabbit and blaze

Could you make the player slower in the SP stages to fix this? or have more giant rings?
I like how you reused elements from other Sonic games. Especially love Rusty Ruin, it's like my 3 favorite levels put together. :D
There's one thing I'd like to ask. Is it intended that Knuckles doesn't deflect projectiles while gliding like he used to in S3&K?
Yes, it is intended. Despite being a slight nerf to the character it seems more correct this way to me.
hi again, i have 2 things to say
1: no matter how many times i try to input the MIS1 and OLDPAUSE, the game still go with the same speed, i'm already fine playing like that, maybe is some compatibility issues with windows 10 or i just have bad luck
2: is normal to enter another zone with a shield? i will explain more, i'm playing with knuckles and got a electric shield in rusty ruin act 2 and defeated eggman, then when i was teleported to spring stadium i'm still having the electric shield, google can't help to know if this is something normal in sonic 3 and knuckles or not so i can call it a bug or not

Compared to Sonic 3 & Knuckles this game has lower chances to get a shield, so this was added to reward good play and offset the lowered shield chance a little.
At the moment there is a bug between Rusty Ruin 1 and Rusty Ruin 2 and in that case the shield doesn't carry over. It will be fixed when 1.10 hits.

Sincerely, A fan of you work
How do I get the cheat system for the game? The special stage is ridiculously hard! Anyone else having the same problem? Love the game otherwise! The attention to detail, dedication, and creativity are amazing! Thank you for putting this game together! I've been playing it almost every day!
Thank you for playing!
Don't give up with the spcial stages, they are not as hard as they seem:

Do not worry too much about them in your first game, you'll be able to repeatedly play Green Grove Zone and try the special stages as many times as you need, just like S3K or Mania.
Thank you for the reply and tips! It is so greatly appreciated you taking the time to help me! I did get one emerald on my own, starting to get the hang of it!
I was finally able to get all the chaos emeralds and beat the game. Amy brings a whole new challenge to the game! Wow!
Yes, Amy is a great character if you're looking for an harder challenge.

hi, i watch a gameplay about this game and i want to play it, but my internet connection fails on every try, it's possible to add another way to download this game?
This game is also available on Gamejolt, did you try from that website as well?
i didn't know it was there too, on the next actualization i will try from there (after many tries, it actually finished the download, but takes so much time)
For any Linux users out there I have made some Lutris installers for the last couple of versions of S3D2d. Lutris is a Linux game client that aims to make Windows and other games easy to install. The installers can be found at https://lutris.net/games/sonic-3d-in-2d/. The installers haven't been blessed by the Lutris devs yet, but seem to work well on my laptop with Intel graphics. Hope it is okay that I post this here. Thanks for the hard work Sotaknuck!
It certainly is!
I really appreciate your effort, as it allows people on a different platform to enjoy my game! I'll put the link into the install instructions as well!
esto solo es una sugerencia cuando estara android
Could you add an option to chose a bigger resolution than 2x or at least with full screen keep the aspect ratio the same and not just forcing it to 16:9
How do I even make the windows shortcut have MIS?
Nvm found out
I went to turn Super and I got froze and this is the end result
Ouch! Thank you for reporting! It will be fixed for 1.10!
Hello, do you think that you could make a video tutorial on how to add custom music? The instructions in the Loop Info file aren't clear enough for me to understand.
1 - Put the music you want in the Custom folder (Example "mymusic.ogg")
2 - Open LoopInfo. Let's say "mymusic.ogg" is the music you want for GreenGrove Act1. Look for the tag of the stage and put the file in the File= line without any quotes like the example below
If you want the music to loop at a specific moment, you write the loop times in milliseconds. If you leave 0 the music will repeat at their end instead.
3 - Save the file and start the game. Go to the Music Options, find green grove act 1 and press A to switch to your custom music.
4 - Press B to listen to your track, then go to Accept to save this setting.
That's it.
thanks!
Hello. I'm new to this and not sure how to make the exe file. Everytime I run the game regularly, I can't move in the special stages (I can jump but can't move directions). I'm using a logitech controller. I hope this is address in 1.10 because It's impossible for me to get bonuses.
Hello, not sure what causes the problem with logitech controllers. May I suggest you to set up the keyboard for the moment? Also, can you try to make a shortcut with the /OLDPAUSE command and see if your controller works in special stages with it?
not sure how to do that. I have windows 10 laptop
Right click the game and create a shortcut.
Right click the shortcut and select properties.
In the properties window into the destination tab after the quotes add /OLDPAUSE.
Hit OK and play the game through that link.
Warning: in OLDPAUSE mode you get out of pause by pressing ENTER on your keyboard, no matter what your controller configuration is.
Is Super Amy not a thing in this game?
Amy corresponds to the hard mode in the game, as such she has no super mode to take advantage of.
Something changed after version 1.10... get all of the Achievements and...
Oho
