A new version of the Ashura: Dark Reign Tech Demo has been released. Play as Sonic as the playable character in two acts, featuring 6 different environments.

Below are the loading screens for each map, and at their ModDB site you can check out a video. The team is also looking for texture artists, modellers, animators, mappers, coders and sound effect creators.

Sonic handles like a squirrel on ice skates, but thats how he handles in the original games, so that's fine :p

I very much like the speed aspect and the overall look and feel of the levels.

The only thing I'm gonna complain about is those GODDAMNED invinci-missiles in the second level. God, most annoying thing in the world or what?!

Beyond that, I'd say think about maybe restricting where sonic can go in the levels; I'm looking forward to the next release, gj :)

This looks absolutely amazing, and fun... great work.. BUT, have you got permission from SEGA to use Sonic? otherwise you could get in trouble with them if they hear about your mod.. (I hadn't heard about this mod until now, so maybe they also haven't)..

Fatal flaw in that reasoning: Those pics have color

No **** Sherlock. The UE3 have desaturation effects, you just don't need to have them on. UT3 looks like **** without desaturation. That is why people tend to use it.

True, but the stock UT3 levels are desaturated to the point where they look washed out. I don't think it makes a lot of sense to just take the whole level and remove X% of the color from it. Sometimes bright colors are needed, even in a setting like that of UT3.

At any rate, this mod is really sweet. I want to see more!

Correction, the stock UT3 maps look like **** without desaturation becuz the LDs didn't seem to give a rat's ass about lighing. I've managed to get satisfactory result using PP without any desaturation.

The magic of using anti-aliasing and anisotropic filters and bloom effect :D

SEGA absolutely ignored us. Fortunately they don't care about putting Sonic in fangames and rom hacks -Sonic Robo Blast 2 for instance.
If they get angry we just have to replace Sonic, Robotnik, rings, and most sound effects. Everything else is Epic's or ours.


Stay on topic people, please.

It was clear for me that this is for UT2004...because of the trailer and use of 2004 effects and sounds etc it must be clear...Also I noticed samples of one Unreal track at one track here in this trailer, I think it was Fifth or Fourth(I think this one), dunno now.......
Also I think perhaps samples of one known unreleased track.......I can hear them there, if anyone says they are not there, he's wrong...

There's gonna be one for UT3, right? Well, what about making it Jazz Jackrabbit game instead of Sonic? I was never much fan of Sonic stuff.............
