I LOVE IT YUM
Rudie, you were right, this owns. The level design is indeed pretty good! Beautiful aesthetics and music too. They really get what was great about those games and they reproduce it artfully. Unfortunately, the demo crashes about half the time I leave a special stage, so that makes it kind of hard to play… But it owns.
Feeling my age seeing teens on twitter doing Sonic Heroes revisionism, and bolstering a greater psychic connection with the movie heads telling ppl to hold off on the vulgar auterism to consider that modern stuff is often just noticeably worse than equally cynical crap from the past.
they got these little guys at wal-mart for five bucks, so i grabbed one today. unlike these other mini sonic toys i have, fang isn’t made of sub-par materials, and can stand on his own two feet instead of having to lean on something.
What is this Nack erasure
why does Sonic have to accept her true self to put on some damn pants
sega mandated a few years ago that male characters have to be naked from the waist down
(this is actually true)
(nobody has figured out why)
does Sally still get to roll around in just a vest and a tuft of fur implying breasts
or exist
Nope they put her in shorts post-Penderswave
but she has not been back since Archie Sonic died even tho Ian Flynn is open to it
Also this is a good time to introduce my AU where Sonic puts some clothes on
which i had to check my defunct insta to find and confirm loki & i have been on this tip for awhile :B
j. axer should just show the execs nine inch tails, and they’ll immediately see the error of their ways
I transformed into Super Knuckles during Sky Chase Zone in Origins and I was able to run right off the plane.
That’s blast processing, baby
wowie i also want to talk sugar about sonic galactic its so purty and fun. i cosign everything Rudie said it’s really well designed and feels up there with mania in well-tuned Sonic level quality. i love that the fully underwater level works by making so many of the various gizmos that shoot you around the level also give oxygen. i can see what they’re going for with like, creating a hypothetical game between 3 & knuckles (doing more with its per-character level branching even) and mania. It kinda does just give mania but im not gonna complain there. also, the music rips. obligatory really
i wanna shoutout the original character, Tunnel the mole
really cute, spot-on oshima-style design and he’s a blast to play: he can dive into the ground, plant himself there, and aim like a turret to blast at badniks/chain between walls and ceilings. feels like it’s tailor-made for wild move tech speedruns
ALSO i am so happy to finally get to play Fang the Hunter, aka Fang the Sniper aka Nack the Weasel (he is a jerboa btw). i always liked the look of him as a kid but he was the rare obscure Sonic game character i didnt get to meet! (didnt even know about Ray or Mighty or Bean or Bark or) if you can tell me the name of his airbike without looking it up, you will win a smile
i played thru with those two but i appreciate the little tweaks the other boys got. Tails being able to drop out of his flight into an attack is excellent!
oo i also wanted to highlight a neat lil thing the tutorial does, visible right at the start: you can learn the vertical/horizontal character movement in tiles by checking the grids in the background
wow!! Video games!!!
i keep seeing tunnel as shaved sonic
