In 15 minutes from when I’m sending this post, the DireX I mentioned last week will be premiering! Tune in.

As developers, we like going back and improving things already made. For Version 1: we revamped Emerald Coast and its encore entirely. This gives a glimpse of what’s in store, including collapsing bridges, a more innovative encore and more Type paths.

For those who prefer the original, don’t feel left out. It will remain as the second mission as a time attack.

And yes, enemies no longer rotate upon death, we heard a wide variety of thoughts on it and have corrected this.

The next video shouldn’t take as long to come out, and will announce a highly anticipated addition.

A new type of mission that allow a whole new range of stages. Race x amount of laps to complete the mission. This is shown off in a brand new mission of Test Stage and Seaside Hill, showing off the new features of this mission.

In order to show off the modding potential of Sonic World DX compared to the original, we have made a faithful recreation of Bob-Omb Battlefield from Super Mario 64.

This showcases a brand new mission type: Collectathon, where you have to obtain a certain number of collectibles to win!

In order to add the 8 Red Coins, we have added Moonrings! These can be set on a timer and can unlock rewards such as switches!

Related to switches, they can now toggle specific meshes. Add a switch appear attribute and assign it to a switch and it can act like a gate or appearing platforms!

A feature that wasn't mentioned in the video for time is switch meshes! You can toggle the visibility and collision of a mesh using a switch, causing even more stage possibilities, such as opening a gate or causing a platform to appear. pic.twitter.com/X2AFYX6DfI

This will release as a Day 1 mod in order to show the potential of DX. As a companion piece, Odyssey Mario will also appear, with a 64 skin.

Even better, Adventure Sonic will join them, with both their DX and Dreamcast incarnations, containing ripped animations!

We’re pushing Sonic World to be more and more as the Modders’ Sonic game, and hope these additions and examples can help convey how accurate we can be.

Take your first look at the passionate hammer-wielding hero, Amy Rose!

At 12pm GMT [Half an hour from posting this], a roughly 25 minute presentation showing off upcoming features for DX version 1 will premiere.

See you there!

You’ve been waiting for an announcement, you’re getting one! Sonic World DX WILL have a demo at this years Sonic Amateur Games Expo! See you on September 5th! More information will appear as we get closer to the Expo date.
