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!!
Sonic and the True King - Sonic’s Theme
It’s the middle of the week! So here’s the second custom piece of music Cleffy created for us! It’s a fantastic Sonic nostalgia medley and I’m not gonna lie I’ve been listening to this on repeat while drawing for the game. It will serve as Sonic’s own theme song and the Green Hill Zone theme. I cannot stress enough how much I’m personally in love with this song.
Please check out Cleffy’s youtube channel and their tumblr blogs @doublecleffmod or @doublecleffmusic and give them some love!
Sonic and the True King - Trust
I would like to say a massive “Thank you” to our incredibly talented composer, Cleffy, who did an absolutely perfect job on all the custom music pieces that they have created for Sattk so far. And we’re more than excited for any future pieces.
Please check out Cleffy’s youtube channel and their tumblr blogs @doublecleffmod or @doublecleffmusic and give them some love!
Sonic and the True King - Music
Hello everybody!
This week we have a bit less visual stuff to show. But not to worry. We have something -just- as good!!!
We’re going to talk about the Music in Sattk! And soon enough we’ll even give you some music to listen to as well.
Now, Sonic and the True King, is an entirely non-profit project that is being created by a tiny tiny team. So the budget for this game is virtually non-existant. Thus, most of the music used in the game was composed by the incredible Kevin MacLeod who’s Royalty Free music you can find on incompetech.com (I would put in a link but tumblr has recently made posts containing links hidden in the tumblr search feature)
Alls his music is completely free, and yet really good in quality, which has a good- and a bad side.
On the good side, it means we have access to a diverse soundtrack to fit all the scenes you’ll be playing through in Sattk.
On the bad side, there is a high chance that you’ve heard the same tracks in other indie-games before.
BUT, I said most of the music comes from incompetech.com, not all of it.
In fact one part of your tiny tiny developer team happens to be an incredibly talented composer who has already created two amazing tracks for the game which we’ll be sharing with you soon! And they’re also in charge of composing the game’s official theme song. That, however you will most likely have to wait for, until the game’s release.
We hope you’re looking forward to the two tracks we’ll be sharing with you in the next days because we’ve certainly been listening to them on repeat since we got them.
Hey, this post may contain adult content, so we’ve hidden it from public view.
SATTK - Before the Fall Protagonist reveal!
In Sonic and the True King - Before the Fall, you slip into the non-existant shoes of a crafty little Urchin. One of the many original characters we created for this story! Your entire 8 years of life, you’ve spent in the slums of a glorious city. Feeding off of what the rich threw away.
But there is something about you that makes you different from other kids on the street. And one fateful day, you meet the one person who is willing to see past your dirty rags, and gives you a chance to prove yourself.
Play your cards right and you may just be able to find a welcoming home for a stray kitten like you… and more!
Stay tuned for more information about the SATTK tech demo “Before the Fall”. And of course feel free to shoot us a message if you have questions… we might just have answers for you!
(granted there will be no spoilers)
“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
You asked for the Edgelord? Here he is!!!
Shadow represents Justice in Sattk.
