Hi! I'm gonna make russian language translation for this game ^_^
Hello and alright then !
By the way, do you have Telegram or Discord ? I wish we can chat in private.
I have discord
Alright. I sent you an invitation.
By the way, sorry for the late reply. I was working on Sonic Advance International ^^'
maybe I should these in here?
Well... I guess this is fine ^^'
Anyways, I uploaded the v2.1.1 of the game. You can actually find the Chinese font in the game assets.
When extracting the game, look into "assets/fonts" and look for the "chinese-font" image.
By the way, I credited you as a Chinese retranslator ;3
cool!
But when I updated to this version, I found that，Getting rings will make the game slightly laggy
Well, I don't think this is the case anymore.
GdGohan has also taken care of fixing the sound effect lag since the previous update.
By the way, the Chinese font is meant to be used for the bigger text during stage gameplay.
I really want to know how to use custom level on mobile.
I'm about to upload the full version of the game today. Hold on !
OK Thank you!
There you go !
The full version is now released !
I've already played.Anyways,this's a very cool game!
And I also played Sonic Advance Mods you made,it was cool either!
I like this mod, and i hope this mod get release(or demo 3/4)
The full version will be released between October 4th to 12th, as this mod is part of the Sonic Hacking Contest.
We decided to release the full version once the entries will be available.
Nice to see the Simplified Chinese you updated
Although some places may no look perfect
The game name can be changed to '索尼克飞越巅峰'(Because there is a Chinese version of this game translated as '世嘉索尼克飞越巅峰' Remove the word '世嘉(SEGA)', the rest is a more reasonable translation)
Two characters in the game can translate their names like this:
Sonic: 索尼克
Shadow: 夏特
If there will be other roles in the future,I will recommend some more official translations
Amy: 艾咪/艾米
Tails: 塔尔斯
Knuckles: 纳克鲁斯
cream: 克里姆
And also,If possible, would you add the diagonal jump like that Pleasant Goat game into here?
PS: The intro animation of that slot machine is exclusive to China Mobile's Game service,，although this service has been suspended for a long time
About Classic Music ,You can try using SF2 file remix those midis
but Java/J2me Edition and Android Edition have different midis though not so big
And why this icon can't full showing in my desktop? where is the stageselect menu?
I modified the original soundtrack, due to some music tracks not having good audio quality. It was a little too loud, and I didn't like how it sounded. So the solution was to turn the .mid tracks into .ogg
However, it is true that I could keep the soundtrack as .mid and use a soundfont, but I don't think this will change anything.
Whereas the stage select menu, it's not there, because Sonic Jump Anniversary is currently a demo. The full game version will come out later.
In any case, thank you for the comments. I will take all into consideration when the weekend is done !
Oh, by the way,the Java version of MIDI is slightly different from the Android version.That doesn't sound that uncomfortable to Android one,although the Android version's midi of the instrument is a bit more than java one
This is why I turned the MIDI soundtrack into .ogg files. This is the only way I could find to improve the sound quality.
However, I could include the .mid soundtrack from the first version of Sonic Jump as well, but GdGohan refused ^^'
By the way, I won't update the Sonic Jump Anniversary demo before a few weeks later, as I'm busy updating Sonic Advance and doing other things. I guess GdGohan is also busy working on other projects at the moment ^^'
ok,thank you for your reply.I got it
Okay. Thank you for the advice !
I will update the Chinese translation after this weekend, because I'm busy for now.
And about the diagonal jump, I will talk to GdGohan about it, as he's currently taking care of the game development more than I do ^^'
In fact, when I asked him for help, he worked on so many ideas. He decided to add the new game intro ^^'
THX!
Hello !
I'm back working on Sonic Jump Anniversary ! :3
I've checked the Chinese text, and it seems like there is a confusion about the game title. You see, I named the game "音速小子飞越巅峰" and not "世嘉索尼克飞越巅峰".
I used "音速小子飞越巅峰", because this is how the game is named. However, I forgot to mention that it's a demo. I'll change that soon if possible ^^'
I will also make the Chinese names for Sonic and Shadow. The other characters names aren't necessary at the moment. But thank you anyway ^^'
By the way, I just asked to GdGohan about the "diagonal double jump", and he agrees to add them. He will try to implement them if possible.
Oh ! I completely forgot to mention that the reason why you can't see the app icon is because GdGohan uses mipmap icons, instead of traditional icons. Mipmap icons are meant to make the icon taking the whole height and width of the icon size for recent Android versions, but this type of icons have some compatibility issues. I also admit that mipmap icons aren't great ^^'
Great,I hope this game can become more complete
Because during the JAVA era,the Chinese version has always been called ''音速小子索尼克(Sonic Boy/kid Sonic)'' instead ''刺猬索尼克(Sonic The Hedgehog)'' .Maybe the Sinicized person at that time didn't think it looked like a hedgehog
Hello !
I saw that you found another Chinese version of Sonic Jump. I'm trying to track as many versions as possible ^^'
The one that I would like to get is on this link:
https://pan.baidu.com/s/10dH0NzK_CY8AFMEMQGTIMQ?pwd=rsjh
I can't download it though. Can you pass to me this file please ?
Also, is this .jar file a modded one or an original version ?
I'm sorry for taking so long to reply.This link was uploaded by me.The content inside is Tencent's Chinese version,but someone has cracked the payment function.Tencent's version is similar to the international JAVA version, but with an additional ranking function. In addition to viewing local personal ranking(personal best), you can also view other QQ user's ranking board.If you need this version, I can send it to you if you needed(If I remember correctly, it seems to have been sent once).I just don't know if you can create a local ranking list.
Alright then. You can send it to me anyway.
I don't know if it's the same .jar package as I already have, but I'm still curious.
https://www.mediafire.com/file/ikg0cz7fh7z3yvj/sonicjump.jar/file
The link is here, I'm sure I've sent it before
Because that Netdisk link was uploaded by me,So I know what's inside it.
Oh. It seems like I already own this build, but thank you anyway ^^'
In any case, the full game will be released during mid-August for the Sonic Hacking Contest. There are a lot of surprises coming up ! :3
There is actually a Chinese version, but it has been lost
Hello there !
Sorry for the late reply, I didn't see your comment ^^'
Well, thank you for the info. I'll try to search for it at one point.
By the way, do you know why the game isn't working when playing on Android 8+ ?
UPDATE:
I actually tried to search the Chinese version of the game. I did found a few sites where you can find the game, but there is no download link to the game. Instead, there is only a link to the store app.
I don't know why it can't run on higher versions of Android
Perhaps this software is too outdated
But a Pleasant Goat game based on this production
This game is called''喜羊羊大跳跃'
This is the download link I used from a free netdisk
I don't know how to download from here
download link:https://wwp.lanzoup.com/iCEZV2l6gi3c Extract code : 2aj9
Oh ! This is interesting !
Looks like this game is using the same assets as Sonic Jump.
Come to think of it, this reminds me of Contra 4 Redux, which there is a bootleg version named Classic Rambo ^^'
Anyways, I'll take a look about this goat game soon.
Well... this is something that I'll take care of.
After modding another game, I guess I found the problem, but I'll take care about it soon.
At least this game is officialAt least this game is official
As early as Pleasant Goat，Before partnering with Disney, Sega was already a partner in China
Perhaps Chinese version of the game like this will be better than the original one?
I haven't found the Chinese version of Sonic Jump yet，So I dare not draw a conclusion
By the way, the JAVA version of this game has not been lost，So I think you can provide these versions, the entire Chinese version
Alright then. I'll do more research about the Chinese version of Sonic Jump.
In the meantime, I managed to play the Pleasant Goat game, and I have to say that this is not only an official game, but also better than Sonic Jump ^^'
In fact, I believe that this Pleasant Goat game feels like the true successor to Sonic Jump and what Sonic Jump 2 could have been ^^'
Also, this game actually works on my phone using Android 8. Meaning that there is a possible way to make this version of Sonic Jump running on modern hardware. But I have to figure out how to fix it.
By the way, I have a question : Do you think it's a good idea to make mods of that Pleasant Goat game ?
Game crashs on actual hardware can you fix it? Please?
Unfortunately, I can't do much about this issue :/
Which is why it's recommended to play this game using BlueStacks.
I wish I could fix this problem, but I need an Android programming expert to see where the crash comes from. If the crash will be fixed somehow, the game project will be fully updated as the "Definitive Version" of the game.
Ok, so I guess for now I'm gonna have to wait to get a pc or I can try a virtual android on my tablet and see if it works
I can probably help you out w your problem. Hmu if you want my help :)
Hello !
If you want to help me, I hope you understand Java/Smali programming and Android compatibility, because this crashing issue comes from the game's code.
Pretty much, yeah. I know how to write code in Java and know my way around Android Studio. Do you have the official source code of the game? Can't do much without that as I'm not fluent on reverse engineering
Alright !
Though I prefer we can discuss somewhere else to see our comments faster. Do you have a Telegram or Discord account ?
Hello !
I wonder if you are still around. It's been a while since we haven't contacted yet.
Hello ! Are you still around ?
I'd like to know if you are interested of improving on the Sonic Jump mods ?
