about the cutscenes, they weren't actually hand animated, they accidentally left over the cutscene files in ultimate before they removed them in the next update, so then blu managed to get them working in godot and then pretty much record the cutscenes from there and make them video files (which is why they now look more in line with the new look the stages have)
The mod has only been in development since august 2023, it actually just started out as a basic generations sonic mod that bluwolf asked me for help with. Then it took off from there.
3:46 fun fact: sonic colors actually had all of the original cutscenes in the files fully animated ready to be put in another engine the developers just opted to ai up scaling it, this version is using those versions on the files.
SEGA leaving Sonic fan content alone is the greatest publicity they could ever get because they sure as heck would never do cool stuff like this themselves.
Yes because they are a company and need to make business decisions. They aren’t gonna remake Colors Ultimate, make it look better, and then sell it for money.
This genuinely looks like a generations mod. The cutscenes aren’t done in blender, the animation files and scene settings and models and everything was left behind in ultimates files, they would have been rendered in game and screen recorded and put in to the mod. If you play with gameplay and ui fixes you can restore the life system
Funfact: The gamefiiles of Colors Ultimate containd the raw Animation files for the Cutseans. So if you are know what you are doing you can easely Update the Grafiks and render them out.
I literally just replayed the original Colors for a video last night. Im glad this mod is going to get more people to try out Colors. I think it's pretty underrated by fans now. I've really grown to love it over the years.
Sonic’s reflection model is in Sync, this really is Ultimate 0:20 You can see the squash & stretch on Sonics Double Jump 🤩 15:42 Never new how much I missed Sonic growing out his quills 28:04 Sonic after eating truck-stop chili dogs 31:36 I keep getting flashbacks to Gens what the heck 36:21 Sonic heroes ahh face 44:39 Sonic has a green tint on his quills the Illumination is phenomenal 48:15 Eggmans seeing stars after that for sure 56:49
3:54 Actully they had access to the games cutscenes but blind was way to lassy and just AI upscale them, im so happy that Sonic Team it's not doing the same with SXSG
Awesome Video! 4:34 What do the Wisps do while inside Sonic Tummy? That's a mystery that no one except me talks about. I wonder why know else was curious about that. If you do a Sonic Colors Fandub where you can make the characters say whatever you want. I would love to see that.
This mod single-handedly made me want to buy the game. I mean, I already own the original Wii copy of the game, but since my Wii disappeared, I figured I may as well buy the game again... when its on discount, of course.
It goes on steep sales pretty often thankfully! This is much more convenient than setting up my Wii with my current setup so I think it's close to the definitive way to play.
honestly i feel like this is another "SONIC FANS DOES WHAT SEGAINT" honestly there's a reason why I didn't buy Sonic Colors Ultimate or even Sonic Origins because it lacks corrections and above all it seems to have no effort
I prefer playing on dolphin than the remaster, with dolphi I can export my save to my sd card and pop it on my wii and continue playing on the same save
Hopefully for now on Sega works on Sega remasters and don't have other companies remaster their game since they won't put that much effort than Sega would. If they gave Sonic X Shadow Generations to Blind Squirrel it would not be as good as what Sega gave us.
@@DolphynsDeck Fr. It would or just been one level with Shadow in it. Nah it would just have Shadow be a playable character and not add any new levels for him.
Good thing Colors DS existed! I definitely knew people who only experienced the handheld version of games growing up. Jokes aside, it would be interesting to see a full 2D game on this scale.
It looks good but honestly it just looks like the OG Colors but a bit flatter, like those Generations Colors Stage Mods. Maybe playing it myself it would look better but from just watching footage it really just looks like OG colors which negates the point of a remaster. Small things like the squash and stretch in his jump animation (unless that’s another mod you’re using), the ring models, and the screwed up Animation Blending is a turn off, hopefully that gets fixed/made optional. The new Cutscenes are a huge Plus though.
The resolution and unlocked framerate alone makes this worth it me. It's not like upscaling on an emulator where you see all the edges. It literally looks like Generations. Sadly I couldn't render this one in 4k though.
That would be incredible but I don't even know where modders would begin with custom boss fights. At least with levels it's all about placing assets but custom code and animations for a fight sounds crazy. It's been done before but it's a huge undertaking
I think I cut the segment but I did mention how I wanted them to add more than one new Wisp, even just the ones from the DS version. It would take some work to redesign the levels so I kinda get it
IMO I think Sega should put other Sonic characters in their Sonic games if it matter for the story if It doesn't then no need for them to be put into every Sonic game. Why would it make any sense for Silver to randomly appear in Frontiers?

Yeah and it’s a mod so they’re still profiting off it
That's literally their buisness plan ever since like Heroes
If Nintendo was like this, we would have had a new sprite-based 2D Mario game like Sonic Mania to properly celebrate the 35th anniversary of SMB

Now this... this is the real Sonic Colors Ultimate.

You can see the squash & stretch on Sonics Double Jump 🤩 15:42
Never new how much I missed Sonic growing out his quills 28:04
Sonic after eating truck-stop chili dogs 31:36
I keep getting flashbacks to Gens what the heck 36:21
Sonic heroes ahh face 44:39
Sonic has a green tint on his quills the Illumination is phenomenal 48:15
Eggmans seeing stars after that for sure 56:49
He's no longer having a dance battle with himself
someone noticed the stuff I added no way
My brain can’t process sonic having an actual mouth…
Fun fact! FINAL COLOR BLASTER is a super sentai reference! I think they also got the same guy in Japanese to voice that line
THE BLOOM GLORY BECAME THE CRISP GLORY
LOL
Fun bit of headcanon for this game: The Metal Sonic races are something that Eggman hosts to make even more money, he could charge to spectate
Reminds me of how Kingpin, one of Spider-Man's enemies, makes a profit on Spider-Man merch every time he does good
Profiting off the enemy type beat
@@DolphynsDeck that is actually genius lmao, Spider Man has some fun villains
3:54 Actully they had access to the games cutscenes but blind was way to lassy and just AI upscale them, im so happy that Sonic Team it's not doing the same with SXSG
Let's go Peak game, Peak mod
🗣🔥🗣🔥🗣🔥
YEAHH THE COLORS FEEL SO RIGHT
THE COLORS FEEL SO RIGHT
I'VE NEVER FELT LIKE THIS I'LL KEEP ON RUNNIN'
@Ivan210bluboi IM GONNA REACH FOR THE STARRRRRS

might have to buy colors now
Definitely grab it on a sale if you can! Super worth.

I actually watched the full hour omg
REAL ONE 🔥 now you will grow huge muscles
14:40 The debug mode mod lets you use free cam
Yup, that's how I got the thumbnail images :)
If only Sega could do this
Sega didn’t even do ultimate
They own sonic wtf you talking about-@@Therealones745
If Sega made this game instead it would be better than whatever Blind Squirrel gave us.
i love playing sonic colors ultimate
It's a good time, actually!
With the mod, right?😊
Right?😐
@@justiceiria869 eh
squash and stretch? 🤨2:51
yeah that and the shine from the original jumpball are present in the mod
Hopefully for now on Sega works on Sega remasters and don't have other companies remaster their game since they won't put that much effort than Sega would. If they gave Sonic X Shadow Generations to Blind Squirrel it would not be as good as what Sega gave us.
Blind Squirrel Sonic X Shadow would just be an Episode Shadow skin pack ngl
@@DolphynsDeck Fr. It would or just been one level with Shadow in it. Nah it would just have Shadow be a playable character and not add any new levels for him.
I feel colours should have been a 2d game like the rush games, the game doesn't have enough 3d to me for it to be called a 3d game.
Good thing Colors DS existed! I definitely knew people who only experienced the handheld version of games growing up. Jokes aside, it would be interesting to see a full 2D game on this scale.

Aww they got rid of the updated Nega Wisp Armor design, that’s freakin sucks.
The resolution and unlocked framerate alone makes this worth it me. It's not like upscaling on an emulator where you see all the edges. It literally looks like Generations. Sadly I couldn't render this one in 4k though.
Is it me or is the jump ball bouncy unlike the original?
The mod just came out bro, stop locking in
LMAOO
16:00 that was one of the major acts, not one of the padding acts
Still no Nega Mother Wisp battle 😢
That would be incredible but I don't even know where modders would begin with custom boss fights. At least with levels it's all about placing assets but custom code and animations for a fight sounds crazy. It's been done before but it's a huge undertaking
Wish they added the other Wisps from the other games, Wasted Potential
I think I cut the segment but I did mention how I wanted them to add more than one new Wisp, even just the ones from the DS version. It would take some work to redesign the levels so I kinda get it
Knuckles should be in the game
I'm fine with him not being in this one tbh. Doesn't fit the vibe as well
IMO I think Sega should put other Sonic characters in their Sonic games if it matter for the story if It doesn't then no need for them to be put into every Sonic game. Why would it make any sense for Silver to randomly appear in Frontiers?
It seems im the last one to hear about this
So how the hell do you install this mod I have been asking everyone and have not received a single answer
You should be able to just drop the Re-Rainbow folder into the Colors 'mods' folder :P
