This looks really good, and seems a lot faster than the original Riders. I would say the next step would be implementing dynamic camera angles during jump sections or air refill sections (like in Metal City) in order to hide some of the stage clipping and other visuals that are usually hidden in the original.
If you've played it, there's a lot more stuff that needs fixing before they get to the camera lol. It's only 2 dudes working, so it makes sense, but yeah.
I'm pretty sure this runs on the actual riders engine since when I downloaded it there was no exe file for it. So I'm guessing you need dolphin or something. I'll look into it later and maybe I'll make a video on it myself
SAGE 2021 is here!! And we have a look at this amazing remake!! The graphics are simply gorgeous and I really like how it handles as well. Holding down the button to boost is an appreciated change. Also I know alot of people are giving ChaosX credit, but I believe the main developers Beatz and Giygas as the menu says. All I know they all did great. :)
Man, you stole my idea😕 But I really hope that this project will go further in development. As a wish, can't wait to see some playable tracks from other SR games. And how do you think, is it good idea to put in a game more sprint tracks? Guys from linked stream wish you a good luck. They already played that demo(same as other games). th-cam.com/video/0HZzBQQ9FPw/w-d-xo.html
@R1ftzy same here, it was my first sonic game. I remember on my PS2 I have sonic riders / zero gravity, sonic unleashed and sonic heroes. Omg the nostalgia, I still have my PS2 today and still play sonic riders on it. The other games got lost and the sonic heroes disk got broken. But at least my favorite sonic riders game didn't get destroyed. So I just have sonic riders instead of zero gravity. I want to but sonic riders zero gravity for my Wii to relive my childhood. And get sonic heroes for my Xbox 360. Man I miss those game so freaking much ❤️
This looks really good so far, not just being a graphical boost, but also making the game look overall faster and (hopefully) a lot less janky leaves a lot of promise.
It's absolutely unlikely that SEGA will take this down since SEGA themselves likes their fans making fangames based on their IPs. I do agree with you, this game is epic!
Just tried this myself, it feels absolutely incredible to control and looks incredible to boot, so excited to see where this goes! Can't wait for Online to be implemented.
_"Sonic is _*_BUILDING UP MOMENTUM!!!"_* _But on a more serious note, so far, this is looking incredible, but although it's a massive improvement visually, it's definitely lacking in other departments, weirdly enough the animations still feel very sluggish and robotic in comparison to the originals, that made great use of the squash effect._ _The physics feel off as well, especially during jumps, although that could be the camera angles that show a different perspective from the original._ _Other than that, I have to appreciate the fact that it feels much faster than before, it isn't something major, but it does help with the excitement._ _Never really understood why SEGA just didn't remake Sonic Riders, tweaked Zero Gravity's and Free's tracks to fit the original style and released the entire thing with a proper online multiplayer experience, it would have been a game that would attract a massive player base and could go on for years as an active game._ _Nonetheless, props to the person/team working on this, it's still early days but it already looks incredible, can't wait for the final product!_
I like the small detail that non flight characters can use the flight rings still, it just doesn't make them fly. I want more of those kinds of reactions, like maybe a non speed character when they hit a rail will bounce off and have a small trick opportunity
I like how they remade the game graphics and textures but to me the camera might be a bit strange since originally it would zoom out Slightly after doing a high charged jump off of a ramp but other than that it looks amazing!
This has a ton of potential for modding for new characters, vehicles and stages. I am loving it all so far, and I hope this can reach completion! SEGA has always been the best at fast-paced, colorful racing experiences, and I'm SO glad there are some fans eager to carry that spirit on to fan made projects!
Want my sonic riders back so badly. It was unique and made sense for Sonic as a racer, Mario had karts, Sonic had hoverboards. It was perfect and then Sonic free riders happened and now they think this series is a failure. Team sonic racing is fine but it's basically Mario kart imitation, Sonic riders was VERY unique from all the other racers at the time and to this day, still haven't seen anything like this game. I just want Sonic riders to make a return.
Further suggestions (some of which you may have considered) - Remastered soundtrack (check out AshZone's cover of Splash Canyon; it's the same feel, but it breathes new life into it) - Custom characters and boards (either Sonic Forces with extra flexibility, or with flexible modding in case programmers have a crossover idea) - Custom tracks (similar to above; using an interface or mods) - Custom music option (helps personalize racing for more engagement; playlists?) - Reverse tracks (think WipEout's Amphiseum; the same, but different) - New tracks (if you could put the track in the intro animation, it would be a dream come true) - Nerfing Auto Slider so no one cheats - Online tournaments (not just online matches; offer prizes, maybe) - Story mode with the original anime style (may be s stretch, but I'm brainstorming) - Original turbulence graphics - Maybe some airbrake mechanic similar to WipEout - Definitely work on those pro shortcuts! Like the one Tails couldn't take. - Check out WipEout and perhaps Kirby Air Ride and F-Zero for inspiration. Especially WipEout. Any more ideas can be listed in the replies.
sega is too confused to understand that sonic riders is their best ip, and they should put in the resources needed into developing the already existing cast into an actual story
It's so sad that free riders killed the riders franchise , it was my favorite racing game series , and even the one one Kinect was a fun time when it worked properly . I wish Sega would bring it back
Fácilmente Sega puede contactar con los creadores de este Remake, mejorarlo, exportarlo a las consolas, añadirle el juego en línea; y traerían de regreso esta saga. Que esperas SEGA. I don't commented on English language (or less translate), must to that gives me bored.
I think it says a lot when a fan recreation of a spin-off looks better than Lost World and Forces combined. Not to say this looks bad, though. It honestly looks better than Mario kart 8.
You know what I used to play sonic riders on ps2 and seeing sonic riders x on HD is cool so you know WE NEED THE GAME TO BE REMASTERED TO PS4 AND PS5 SO THAT WE ALL ONLINE PLAYERS CAN DUKE IT OUT IN AN ONLINE MATCH
Personally I think this is a great idea, but having actually tried it myself, It's far from perfect. and I'm not saying that's bad either, I understand it's a work in progress. In particular one thing I've noticed is the rail speed is beyond too fast. meaning major adjustment is needed to pull off the tricks, as someone who played the original and flipped out when I discovered how to even use the rails, flying off due to a mistimed jump is equally as frustrating as my 10 year old self felt lol. Major props for the progress made so far tho!
its nice and all im just really sad about how static the camera is like how it doesnt go up and down while doing jumps and the air depleets incredibly fast why??
Nostalgia hits sooooo hard. One of my favorite games and you guys nailed it. Lots of luv and support. Also : What track was that during Knuckles race? Is it an original one or one I just wasn't aware of in previous games? Either way that is so cool
@@metalsonic5202 Very much so it was ! Just between the two I’d shoot for a remaster of Riders. But now since Ultimate dropped I only hope for Riders to come back!
I like how the Fans are making a Remake for Sonic Riders before SEGA even does it lol.
Sonic P06 3.5, Sonic Adventure Chronicles
Can't rely on SEGA when fans are literally doing what we always wished for :D
I wish this was official tho
Hmmm
Fans: "Fine,I'll do it myself"
Sega surely busy working in the sa remakes ………………….surely………………..maybe for the 35th anniversary……………..one day ……………………………………right?

Sonic Riders has a lot of potential to be a perfect Sonic Racing Spinoff game and it shows in this fan game! Awesome work by the fans who made this!
ChaosX didnt make this lol
@@Angel-qj1ep He didn't? I thought he was making some riders project. Guess I will edit my post then.
@@Sonic_-cy7lk it’s made by sgiygas and beatz I believe. Chaos WAS making his own but killed it off I believe.
@@Angel-qj1ep he's still making it, but is trying to implement more free riders stuff it seems. His is going in a different direction than this one
I wished that I could play this on Nintendo Switch

These guys have put a lot of work to make this remake
Thank you SAGE
Isn't it two different projects?
@@s.r.v.f.7298 Yes confirmed by Beatz, ChaosX has his own and , Gigyas and Beats have this one.

THIS LOOKS SO CLEAN NOW THIS IS A SONIC RIDERS REMAKE RIGHT HERE
Whoever made this fangame...PLEASE DON'T STOP!!!
The increased speed in movement, tricks, jump charge etc is a massive increase on this great game's quality. This project has a ton of potential.
This fan game is so awesome.
I really hope Sega makes a new sonic riders. I remember playing sonic riders and zero gravity when I was little so much.
Agreed, first game is still my favorite, 2nd game is good but the music and story gives me good memories
@R1ftzy same here, it was my first sonic game.
I remember on my PS2 I have sonic riders / zero gravity, sonic unleashed and sonic heroes.
Omg the nostalgia, I still have my PS2 today and still play sonic riders on it.
The other games got lost and the sonic heroes disk got broken. But at least my favorite sonic riders game didn't get destroyed.
So I just have sonic riders instead of zero gravity.
I want to but sonic riders zero gravity for my Wii to relive my childhood. And get sonic heroes for my Xbox 360.
Man I miss those game so freaking much ❤️
That trilogy was hated, they're not going to bring it back
Gonna have to keep tabs on this. Feels just like the original, I'm glad you were able to capture that.
This is amazing, looks even better than how I imagined it all those years ago on ps2
I want to cry, it's so beautiful, my favorite spin off remade there my heart
Wow this is really amazing, will be spectacular with zero gravity powers and vivid colors from Riders Zero Gravity too. Great gameplay
I'm so glad there's more than 1 Sonic Riders project and I LOVE THE SPEED OF THIS GAME. PLAYABLE BUILD WHEN?
You can play this one right now! Check it out in the description.
This looks really good so far, not just being a graphical boost, but also making the game look overall faster and (hopefully) a lot less janky leaves a lot of promise.
I like how one of the stages is the dream hoverboard racing stage form M&S Tokyo Olympics, and it fits well too for this
My childhood feels complete... I've waited for that moment so many years.
I pray for this project actually getting finished and not taken down by SEGA, this has so much potential, it looks great and so smooth and fast 🤩😍
It's absolutely unlikely that SEGA will take this down since SEGA themselves likes their fans making fangames based on their IPs.
I do agree with you, this game is epic!
Something tells me that they are playing it right now and realizing that the fans want more riders.
The camera feels a bit too stationary compared to the original, but this is still incredible.
Just tried this myself, it feels absolutely incredible to control and looks incredible to boot, so excited to see where this goes! Can't wait for Online to be implemented.

_Nonetheless, props to the person/team working on this, it's still early days but it already looks incredible, can't wait for the final product!_
YESSS! my childhood was this game the songs were so fucking sick god
I like the small detail that non flight characters can use the flight rings still, it just doesn't make them fly. I want more of those kinds of reactions, like maybe a non speed character when they hit a rail will bounce off and have a small trick opportunity
This feels so smooth! I'd pay for a full game
This definitely needs more attention
There's some missing details like the jump camera and the wobble animation when the board is going low on air
my inner childhood is mindblown, like I can't believe what im seeing.
it's just perfect
Oh hell yes I'm down for this Sonic riders was my favorite sonic game growing up and to see it like this makes me cry
Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better...
*Hideki Naganuma music in the test stage*
...suffice to say I will be watching this one closely.
do you know the name of the song?
@@bobel_gum I can’t remember it off the top of my head, but IIRC it’s from a game called Dead Heat Riders.
@@eggbreakerdotexe thank you!
@@bobel_gum It’s called Black Hot Vodka
It is beautiful, keep it up bro!
Sega needs to Remake this game. This is one of my personal favorite Sonic games. I was only 5 years old when I was playing this so much.
Shame they won't
Why am I in tears right now? This looks so good!
When I saw Metal City, I breathed in more than usual.
The graphics remind me of free riders, this is amazing!
I like how they remade the game graphics and textures but to me the camera might be a bit strange since originally it would zoom out Slightly after doing a high charged jump off of a ramp but other than that it looks amazing!

First Project 06 and now this. Chaos X is on a roll when it comes to the Sonic remakes
ChaosX is so awesome! Love all the projects he works on. But yeah guess ChaosX is not involved with this.
@Giygas oh my bad. I thought it said Chaos X in the description. I knew he was making a Riders fan game too so sorry for getting confused.
The nostalgia hits like a train
So clean, keep up the good work I'll recommend you to many friends about this game, we want this the ultimate sonic riders of all times
Considering this game now gained a great competitive community this project has quite a potential
The physics looks like it's getting more and more alike to the real game! Love it!
That's important, and im glad its meeting that criteria!
Holy crap. This is epic. Let the sage begin im hyped

It won't because it was a failure, you've said it
aside from trick animations being kinda off, this is a really fucking good project holy shit
Just a nitpick but I hope tails' tails spin when he flies in the air with his board
same.
Further suggestions (some of which you may have considered)
- Remastered soundtrack (check out AshZone's cover of Splash Canyon; it's the same feel, but it breathes new life into it)
- Custom characters and boards (either Sonic Forces with extra flexibility, or with flexible modding in case programmers have a crossover idea)
- Custom tracks (similar to above; using an interface or mods)
- Custom music option (helps personalize racing for more engagement; playlists?)
- Reverse tracks (think WipEout's Amphiseum; the same, but different)
- New tracks (if you could put the track in the intro animation, it would be a dream come true)
- Nerfing Auto Slider so no one cheats
- Online tournaments (not just online matches; offer prizes, maybe)
- Story mode with the original anime style (may be s stretch, but I'm brainstorming)
- Original turbulence graphics
- Maybe some airbrake mechanic similar to WipEout
- Definitely work on those pro shortcuts! Like the one Tails couldn't take.
- Check out WipEout and perhaps Kirby Air Ride and F-Zero for inspiration. Especially WipEout.

Sonic fans: Please return Sonic Riders to us.

Sonic Fans: Fine…I’ll do it myself.
my childhood is being brought back to life, can't wait for the final product!
Thank You for this awesome remake. 😘 You did a great job!
I love this game. Why doesn't Saga realize there are fans?
Nostalgia going insane rn
That 4Kidz Line Up Brings Memories😔💔
Very bloody cool and you get 10 points for the recreation of the track from Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games
This bring me good old memories with my PS2.
I love that Remake !
Petition to have another Sonic Riders Game again.
let's go!!
Petition declined by me
It's so sad that free riders killed the riders franchise , it was my favorite racing game series , and even the one one Kinect was a fun time when it worked properly . I wish Sega would bring it back
Heh, they won't
Now this is what Sonic Free Riders should've been!
Awesome more Sonic fangames that will never be finished, my favorite.
I feel like the trick animations should kinda flow better into each other, but otherwise this looks FANTASTIC thus far.
WTFFF Thats look soo clean! I realy love this remake
FANs :can we get a remaster or sonic riders ANYTHING?
Sega: No but sonic colore though..
FANS: Fine i'll do it myself

It is really fun!
@@sonicovertime A lot of these games this year seems to be can only be played on PCs.
This looks so good I can't believe it's not official
I wish this was on console.
Knuckles seems not quite finished.
If this can be played online then this will be the best new racing game for a good while
This is a remaster.....holy crap you sonic fans have done it once again
And they'll do it anytime while SEGA just looks at their own asses
Game looks amazing, nice work! (Well, old stages from sonic riders 1 need a bit of work on poly count, but it's already pretty good!)
Oh my lord, this is stunning!!!! Downloading this right now.
Splash Canyon, my favourite track of the game, but remastered.
Im so happy :')
I think it says a lot when a fan recreation of a spin-off looks better than Lost World and Forces combined.
Not to say this looks bad, though. It honestly looks better than Mario kart 8.
SEGA needs to hire these people ASAP
It’s missing that jet noise but otherwise it looks great!
this game like change so much its SO REALISTIC DUDE
I never really played riders but I did play zero gravity a lot. I had a lot of fun with it.
I NEED THIS GAME TO BE COMPLETED
I need this project funded by Sega *immediately*.
_I prefer this over Colors Ultimate love colors don’t get me wrong but Sonic riders was the shit_
ahh the game of my childhood
This makes the game look like Free Riders. Stellar.
You know what I used to play sonic riders on ps2 and seeing sonic riders x on HD is cool so you know WE NEED THE GAME TO BE REMASTERED TO PS4 AND PS5 SO THAT WE ALL ONLINE PLAYERS CAN DUKE IT OUT IN AN ONLINE MATCH
Shame
i’d love to hear the voice lines when you attack like in sonic riders zero gravity
I really liked this project, Especially that's graphics!
I kinda prefer the boost aura from the original game, tbh
THIS IS AMAZING!!
Oh god I wish we could somehow remaster the cutscenes as well. Are you going to be working on Zero Gravity?
This entire free riders
series needs a remaster
For me only one thing that i would love to see is slowing time on the bends rest looks perfect 😍

That's a problem with your skills, not the game... Not to be rude.
Why isnt the Demo Stage song listed anywhere in the credits?
Needs lots of improvements and fixes but dang this is WAY PAST COOL. Had to say it.
This is the masterpiece
It’s classic game to me
I’m happy 😊👍

Not gonna lie , I personally feel that if Sonic Riders was remade, SEGA would’ve gotten way more kudos than remaking Sonic Colors.
