It's definitely interesting how fall damage is universally seen as foul in 2D but fine in 3D. Think about it for one second and it is rather arbitrary.

[@spindash64]

@@quadpad_music It’s actually very simple: 2D platformers don’t let you rotate the camera to see what’s ahead, so you need to trust that the game won’t kill you for following its advice. Fall damage in a 2D platformer generally breaches this trust

[@sunmoonfx8251]

I think you deserve the win on the Bubsy run since it's a cutscene- if you don't have control of the character, then it shouldn't count against you. You still beat both the Wing Fortress and Death Egg levels otherwise. The cutscene is just completely bugged out. You got all three variations completed, if you ask me. Well done.

Funny thing is, if someone modded in Zero from the Megaman Zero Series with all of his moves you could play it kinda like sonic, since he has a spin attack in the air and a rolling dash on the ground, along with the regular dash giving quite a bit of speed and the recoil rod being able to bounce on enemies.

[@Key019]

Fall damage was cooler when Mario made his damage howl every time it happened.

[@rcblazer]

That and Mario could survive falling damage. In Super Mario 64, Mario could fall from really high up and hit the ground at terminal velocity, lose half his power, and get right back up. Give him some coins or jump in the water and he's fine again!

I actually played Bubsy games as a kid on the Super NES, and thought that was what Sonic games are probably like. I did have some fun, but I died a lot and it did feel unfair at times. When I finally got around to playing Sonic games later in life, I noticed that Bubsy felt like the platforming section of Sonic where you go slower, like Marble Zone and such. But Bubsy had nothing comparable to the speed stages and easier sections, because the faster sections in Bubsy were these river areas where you feel out of control and have to worry a lot.

[@40susman]

sonic: *showering in money* meanwhile yoshi and megaman beating the game 2.4 seconds before him: we need a raise

[@rcblazer]

Funny enough, the levels in Sonic 2, as bad as they are for Bubsy, they're actually not as bad as the levels in Bubsy 1, which he's based on. In Bubsy 1 they put enemies and obstacles that kill you in one hit right in Bubsy's path, making going fast anywhere a surefire way to get yourself killed.

[@invisibletuxedo]

20:22 ...so if an enemy is ever on the floor, it's best to just jump up and fly over them. They don't really find it funny either because "THE JOKE" GOES OVER THEIR HEAD. This was a really good line. Gotta give you props for that one. :P

[@Blaze4ification]

4:23 ye, something especially newer Sonic fans don't realize, Sonic's always been about exploration. True only Green Hill does this well in Sonic 1, but this is why Sonic 2 is significantly better, because they realized their mistake of slowing down what is supposed to be about speed for monotonous platforming. Emerald Hill is a good starting playground, because it teaches you certain paths give different amounts of fun and play experience. You go up you get more rewards, you stay lower in the level it's more treacherous, you try to stay roughly in the middle then it's faster. Sonic is all about speed, that was the tag line why he stood out from Mega Man and Mario back in the day, but this aspect of platforming, is truly what made Sonic stand out as a platformer, that there was exploration. Probably why CD was disliked for the longest time, because it was too much exploration, both sequels to Sonic 1 went different directions with how they wanted to handle the franchise. Each level is handled that way, in order to create your own experience, something Mega Man wouldn't do for some time, and while Mario had... it was just to cheese levels, short cuts to make it easier and skip content, Mario 2 (of which in fact the Lost levels would instead punish you for exploring and either rob you of the true ending or if you were unlucky could send you backwards in levels), Mario 2 Doki Doki, and Mario 3 all did this. Even Mario World which had been out by this point wouldn't be this deep with its levels, you still only have essentially 2 routes and only in certain levels, Sonic 2 was a jungle gym, with different things to play on, while Mario was a slide, you can have fun sliding down or climbing up the slide... but that's only 2 ways to play. Interested to see how you can make non Sonic characters beyond Yoshi (which honestly made sense, especially using the Yoshi's Island version, doubt Mario World Yoshi would function as well) work. Interesting experiment with mods, curious to see more, just explaining in more detail why Sonic 2 is that way with its maps. 13:52... it is at this point that I realize I should watch the video fully instead of talking 1st lol.

[@Shinepikavee]

So true about sonic always being about exploration. I actually love sonic because of his exploration. He is described as a character who loves speed and adventure. Adventure to me is exploration. That said most sonic games have exploration in some shape or form. Even the boost sonic games when you look at the werehog or hub, or generations classic mode. It's just most speed runners just speed past it all ignoring the exploration or get annoyed at it instead of enjoying it because they just want to go fast. Labyrinth zone being a victim of this despite having hidden rooms and interesting design for that exploration. I use to speed through sonic but became really bored because it all started to feel or similar to me. So I am glad sonic has the exploration option. Looking through the games I have, the only ones (minus spinoffs) with no exploration I have found so far is sonic storybook games because they rely on rail removing the exploration in favour of racing through the level. Everything else seems to have something to explore whether done well or poorly.

[@supercamborg4218]

It’s why Sonic 3&K is the best Sonic game imo

[@Cheesetendo]

The dropping of Eggman bombs is NOT random! It's dependent on where you are in relation to the boss when he comes down: If you are in _front_ of him, he launches the arms. If you are _behind_ him, he shoots the bombs.

[@TheBlazingBronzeBro]

Seeing these different characters go through Sonic seemed really fun. NGL didn't think Yoshi would do well, but he did. With X I had a feeling he would do great becuase of his playstyle and the creators got creative with him. Bubsy is Bubsy... that's all I have to say.

The thing about Death Egg Final boss is that if you're behind the Death Egg Robo (on the side of his jet engine back pack), that's when he will launch the egg robos. So the way you're supposed to fight this boss as Yoshi is to wait for him to go into the air and then stay behind him so you can get free eggs and pelt eggman with him. It's not random at all! EDIT1:The 2nd rom hack is a dope ass rom hack, but it was sadly never finished so it's left as a prototype more than anything (which Im sure you could probably tell.) GJ with that though!
