DEPRECATED : Use this version instead (Community version) : DashEngine 1.3
DashEngine is an Unreal Engine 4 Sonic Framework/Devkit which provides all the tools, gimmicks, and gameplay needed to start building awesome (or not...) 3D Sonic fangames. It is shipped with an Adventure Sonic gameplay style and a Modern Sonic gameplay style. And with some tweaks you can even create a Classic Sonic gameplay style in a 2.5D world !
Everything can be customized in DashEngine... From the model of your character to the amount of momentum sonic will earn.
This repository currently hosts Version 1.1.0 of DashEngine and it is maintained by Marvin, Dynu, Novarek and all the others contributors from the community.
To install DashEngine on your computer and start building levels follow these steps.
