The first demo of Sonic Zero: Remastered was released during SAGE 14, and was given a rating and gameplay video by Lacktardo. The video was highly praised by many viewers as well as others who played the game. However, most criticism was against the sprites, and a small occasion the level layout. Since then, the game has taken a development leap with the help of LarkSS and Sparks. After SAGE 15, the game had a 3 Act demo released. Since then, progress hit a standstill for roughly a year. This has been due to revised plans taking effect.

Sonic Zero: Remastered took its criticism from SAGE 15, and has been revamped in several areas. However, SAGE 16 will be the last SAGE to release Sonic Zero in that condition. Development has been in progress for awhile which will include an all new graphical style based on Knuckles Chaotix(seen on this page) and new zones. There is no set release for this newer version.

Since then, the game has taken a development leap with the help of LarkSS and Sparks. After SAGE 15, the game had a 3 Act demo released for SAGE 16.

Gameplay

The engine of Sonic Zero: Remastered is that of Sonic Delta, which is an evolution of Sonic Worlds being created by Mr. Kaosu and LarkSS. The game itself is also meant to be an example of the powers of Sonic Worlds and Delta, an example of how it can be modified, and how useful the engine can be. Controls are borrowed from the Genesis era games, while graphics are mostly custom, with certain graphics borrowed when there's a shortage of manpower.

Character wise, you have a choice between Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy Rose. Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles retain their original abilities from Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Amy Rose, whose sprites are courtesy of E-122-Psi, plays like how she does in Sonic 3 and Amy Rose. Level layout is designed with all four players in mind, and includes vasts amount of exploration, alternate route possibilities, and bonus areas accessible to certain players.

Palmtree Parkway

First zone of the game; The remains of Green Hill Zone after Robotnik turns it into a highway. Inspired by Green Hill Zone and City Escape.

Tidal Tubes

A flooded high speed labyrinth within a futuristic garden, not unlike Chemical Plant Zone, Aqua Planet Zone, and Hydrocity Zone.
