Sonic Zero: Remastered is a fan game currently in development by Mr.Kaosu, and a number of other team members and contributors. Sonic Zero: Remastered was originally just Sonic Zero, and was developed by Max Stunner in 2001. Since then, ownership is now in Kaosu's hands.

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. It has since received heavy modifications again with the help of Gardow and Gamenerd Advance. The games newest redesign brings it closer to its original form as it was ten years ago.

Knuckles Gameplay

Gameplay

The engine of Sonic Zero: Remastered is that of Sonic Worlds. The game itself is also meant to be an example of the powers of Sonic Worlds, an example of how it can be modified, and how useful the engine can be. Graphics and controls are borrowed from the Genesis era games, giving a Chaotix and modern vibe.

Character wise, you have a choice between Sonic, Tails and Knuckles. All characters retain their original abilities from Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Level layout is designed with all three players in mind, and includes vasts amount of exploration and alternate route possibilities, making the game comparable to Sonic 2 and Sonic 3K in some aspects.

Zones

Some Zones in Sonic Zero: Remastered have yet to be revealed, but Palmtree Parkway and Generic Garden have returned from the 2009 and 2010 demos, with heavy modifications.

As of the SAGE 15 demo, around 3 zones have had graphics worked on at least. This has since boosted up to around four zones.
