Aaaand here’s our last boy!!! (Well last of the first 6 out of 13 main characters anyway)
Knuckles represents “Courage” in Sattk.
This is a post talking about the Setting of Sattk - Before the Fall (the tech demo)
The plot of the tech demo and the source of the evil you fight in the main game both lie within the confines of the glorious city of Babylon. Thousands of years before Sonic the Hedgehog and his friends fight their ongoing battle against Eggman.
In fact the 3000 BC in the header image refers to 3000 years before the Chaos incident wiped out nearly the entirety of the Echidnas.
In a time that long most of Babylon’s history was destroyed of lost. But fact is it was once the capital of the greatest empire in all of Mobius. It was founded by travellers who came from the stars in search of a new homeworld and riches. Their technology was so far advanced compared to that of the ancient mobians that they were readily accepted as deities. What they really were, no one knows. Maybe they were gods or maybe they were mortals from another world.
Their technology anyway made Babylon the great city it was. They were capable of harvesting the sun’s energy and convert it into electricity. Powering the entire city and a wide array of weapons with unrivalled destructive force. Suddenly mobians were able to travel the skies, have electric light during the dark hours, and create moving and thinking creatures out of mere rocks.
This glorious and magical city is yours to explore (to a point) in the demo.
Now I’m sure you noticed that Sattk’s Babylon does not exactly match to 100% with the Babylon in the official Sonic games.
We’re deliberately taking some liberties here. We’re for example completely ignoring the whole “We’re descendants of real Genies” part of Sonic Riders canon. There’s no Genies happening in Sattk. However the hanging gardens of Babylon are still a space ship,a powerplant and a weapon. We’ve redesigned the thing a little but it’s still close enough to its appearance in the Riders games.
We’ve also taken some liberty with Babylon’s energy source. In canon the hanging gardens are powered by an artificial black hole. In Sattk the black hole engine is still a thing but it lies dormant and is only used for space travel or to transform the gardens into a weapon. The main energy source which the city of Babylon uses to power the whole city are the sun sails attached to the gardens.
They resemble wings or feathers but really they’re translucent solar panels harvesting the sun’s energy directly and without being in danger of lethal instabilities.
All in all we wanted to stick close to the human Babylonians in this sense because they worshipped the sun above all else. Their symbol of the sun is synonymous with their highest god. Thus, we decided to make the sun a crucial element in every aspect of the game.
Let us know what you think about all this.
Here’s our youngest boi! Still a badass though just like the other heroes!
Tails represents Joy in Sattk!!
“SATTK - Before the Fall” Tech Demo Release
Yes, you read correctly! We are VERY happy to announce that SATTK has a present for you all.
In early 2019 (exact date tba.), we will be releasing the SATTK Tech Demo, “Sonic and the True King - Before the Fall”!!!
It will show off some of the game mechanics that are unique to SATTK, like the fighting system and one of the different puzzle types. But also visual novel typical things, such as branching storylines based upon player choices and an affection points system (sort of… it’s not exactly ‘affection’ you’re earning, but for a lack of a better description let’s call it that for now).
All that will be wrapped up nicely in a little stand-alone story that is loosely connected to the main game’s plot. More information on the demo will be coming in the next weeks, such as who the demo’s protagonist is, and which setting you’ll be playing in.
For now we would like to give a big thank you to the following people who’s OC’s will appear in the demo! The following lovely OCs will also be posted to this blog after this post here goes up. So keep your peepers peeled!
@caydebug with Razor the Hedgehog as a Villager
@ask-allistair-and-patches with Iris the Caracal Cat as a Villager
@sonic-vverehog with Lady Sprocket as a Villager / Temple Assistant
@axisthewolf with Axis the Wolf as a Bar Visitor / Villager
@rrosyan with Ash the Dog as a Bar Visitor / Villager
@nanasity with Marshall the Lynx as a Bar Visitor / Villager
(There is also a few others who don’t have a tumblr account or are not being listed here for similar reasons. Those will be named in the credits at the end of the demo properly)
To those of you who’s OCs are going to be in the Demo: After the Demo has been released you will be given high resolution character art of your characters. You will be free to use and upload them how and wherever you wish, though of course we would appreciate to be given credit for the art <3
The same OCs might also re-appear in the finished game in some capacity.
Thank you again for your support, without your beautiful characters the world of Mobius would be a bland and empty one. We sincerely hope you will like the way your characters have been portrayed in the game.
On that note we still need some Villagers. So please keep sending in your lovely children <3
WELCOME TO GREEN HILL ZONE
Since we’ve shown you some character art now, we figured, you’d be interested in the look of the world. And as a loving homage to all the Sonic games we love, we’ve decided the first you should see is the Green Hill Zone.
Now, this background differs from the other Game Backgrounds in a way. Usually when making environmental art there should be a ‘path’ of some sort leading the viewer into the picture as if you opened a door and looked into a painted world. It should ideally give you the feeling that you can just take a step and you’ll be inside the drawing.
However with the Green Hill Zone we wanted to stay true to the side-scrolling platformer aesthetic, so all paths in this drawing lead from the left to the right, instead of INTO the picture.

Meet… YOU
You are not a hero.
You are a scientist in service for doctor Eggman.
Maybe you joined the doctor because you had someone to protect, or maybe you are actually on the doctor’s side.
Either way, the job you signed up for was to sit in your little laboratory, dating rocks and deciphering ancient texts. It wasn’t your job to ask questions nor was it your job to worry about morals.
But everything changed, on that fateful day, when the mining crew, at the digsite you called your workplace… dug a little too deep. They found what the doctor was searching for. And you… you are the only one who made it out alive.
Now it’s time to pick a side. It’s time to define yourself, and your role in the terrible events that are surely about to come.
Dev-blog upadates weekly!~
Stay tuned
WELCOME!
To the official dev-blog for “Sonic and the True King” (Sattk), an upcoming, fan made visual novel.
Sonic and the True King plays some time after the events of Sonic Forces (ignoring the IDW storyline because this project was started before the comics came out).
Mobius is peaceful once more and people are rebuilding what was lost in the war, while Sonic and his friends from the resistance, fight the remaining Egg-troops. That is, until Silver returns with more bad news from the future he thought he saved by beating Eggman. However, it seems the doctor had another plan up his sleeve. One that lead to a future of ice and eternal darkness. A future where even Dr. Eggman, himself, had fallen victim to his own misguided plan.
In Sonic and the True King you will follow six heroes on an epic quest
to prevent the evil doctor from carrying out his plan in order to save
Mobius and the Doctor himself. Uncover an ancient Babylonian mystery and defeat the greatest evil, yet.
This time, the heroes will need help from an unlikely ally.
And maybe that ally will be you.
Or maybe not.
Such is the beauty of Visual novels. In the end… it’s your choice if you want to see the peace returned, or if you will pick an entirely different route.
The fate of Mobius lies in your hands.
