New Sonic Café title
This month’s Sonic Café release takes a break from milking Sonic and instead focuses on Amy with the bizarrely titled Amy’s American Page One. Despite the strange name, the title is a simple card game. Being something of a secret suffragette, Amy has invited fellow females Cream, Rouge and Hero Chao to prove their card playing skills.
^ A card game may be the mobile equivalent of giving Amy a gun, but at least we can pretend it is a nod to her tarot reading abilities.
More details can be found at the Sonic Café website.
Sonic Channel Updates
A number of updated have been made to Sonic Channel, including a Knuckles character profile and wallpaper download, a new fan art section and an Eggman shockwave game.
Roger Hector Interview
Interview with former STI boss
HXC, a member of the ever resourceful Simon Wai’s Sonic 2 Beta community, recently managed to secure an interview with Roger Hector. Hector was director at STI from 1993 to 1996 and worked on a number of Sonic games, including Sonic 2 and 3 and Sonic Spinball.
Part 1 of the interview, which can be found here, reveals a number of interesting development secrets, including Michael Jackson’s planned involvement with the Sonic 3 soundtrack and the specifics of Naka’s and Yasuhara’s roles in the production process of the Sonic games.
HXC will be posting the second instalment soon and is asking for suggestions for questions.
