I think the wisps were done pretty well in sonic colors. They weren't really forced on you (except for exactly 10 times), and they were used to give the levels a lot of extra depth. Most of them aren't even slow, if you use them properly. It can be really satisfying to use a wisp in a creative way to get a red ring.

Took me roughly 7 years to play the Wii version of this game. I actually started with the DS version, which is basically Rush 3. It's basically the same game with different levels and its own fun little twists, slightly different bosses, an actual final Super Sonic boss, MIDI versions of the music, and also less acts, and slightly better story. I basically spent all my time on the DS before I got my hands on other devices. So yeah, despite being pretty shotty in terms of story, this game is still pretty good. This is pretty good for only needing 10 Wisps.

[@xdfeverdream8122]

Considering the announcer calls out each of them individually and you have to press the wisp button for each wisp I would say the final color blaster counts as 7 wisp uses.

[@MegaGlassguy]

Seeing those tiny mandatory sections for Laser really highlights the biggest gripe with the wisps as a concept for me: they don't enhance the gameplay so much as they just act like fancy keys to pass through one specific area every time. Just look at 21:06, you could be wall jumping if they had just put another wall but nope, just grab the wisp and fly all the way up. And since they're all one-time use their purposes just end at that. And yet Lost World would double down on this philosophy... Really the only time they feel somewhat rewarding is when find a non-mandatory passage without the required wisp sitting next to it, that way you're rewarded for early exploration by being able to access another area later on. But even then, they really should think of something more interesting if they plan for them to stick around.

[@florid1ty]

You don't have to boost in the aquarium park crab part. When it throws a punch you have to quick step to the opposite of his punching direction. Let's say it's punching toward the right. Right before it punches, quick step to the far left.

Haven’t watched the video yet, but I just wanted to say that I mapped the boost to the right trigger (so I would use it less) and found the game much more enjoyable and evenly paced. I have a feeling the game was mostly designed without the boost, and that they chickened out of just making a simple Sonic platformer and shoehorned the boost in.

[@VaniRoyal]

Since you’re counting refilling the wisp gauge mid-use as part of a single wisp use, you could’ve reduced the number of hover wisps you used in starlight carnival.

Really good character, and her spinoff with Tangle is a great read.

[@sonicthehedge]

In starlight act 2, you can try to damage boost through the spikes to get that tails save in which has a button that opens the door. The spike gap is tight whicg is normally intended for the spike wisp but like i said you can damage boost, normally trying to damage boost sends back (to the right) and fall down so you can't use your invincible frames but if you face right and jump left but not so much where sonic switches directions, sonic will be sent to the left and thus you damage boost through the spikes Then You go through the door and fall down and climb a few platforms to get the goal much faster.

[@konajohnson6182]

I’d say the reason everyone hates the wisps now is because almost every game after colors had no reason for them to be included. In this game they were a part of the story and each was used and placed perfectly in each level. Still, the white wisps in each game isn’t that big of a deal as they actually serve a purpose of giving you boost!!

[@clink3582]

I watched up to the end of Tropical Resort and decided I wanted to try this myself, so here's my results compared to yours! I was playing the original game on Dolphin, but it's near identical between versions, so it doesn't matter much. For the first few zones, our results were the same, up until Starlight Carnival Act 5. This one's a doozy. I thought it took two hovers, but while watching your video I had some ideas that I went to test, and managed to bring it down to one. Here's how I did it: first, defeat all the enemies right at the start of the 3D section. A long ring chain will appear that you can use the light speed dash on, which is important since you don't lose Wisp energy during the dash. Grab Hover, and jump into the line of rings such that you can dash immediately after activating the Wisp. There's a few places you can do it, it's not too difficult. Then, once you reach the top, hold forward and mash the dash button like your life depends on it. For some reason it makes Hover last slightly longer (probably because of the way the light speed dash works), giving you just enough time to defeat the enemy on the platform and refill on energy. Keep moving up the tower, defeat the next enemies on the platform for another refill, and from there you can reach the top without issue. You can also defeat the guys on the left to grab the Red Ring if you want to be fancy, lol. In Starlight Carnival 6, I ended up with the same number but a different solution. With some tight timing, you can light speed dash up far enough to refill Hover and reach the top, even without the mashing strategy. No need for crazy homing attacks! Planet Wisp Act 1 can be done without a boost. All you need to do is bring it back to the Adventure days and jump with good timing on that slope, giving you juuuuust enough height to reach the platform above. Act 3 you beat me, I didn't consider either of those strategies, that was awesome. I just used a Cube at the start and booked it to the second container to get a refill, one Wisp total. Of course, since I wanted to keep track of this, it begs the question how many Boosts it costs. I can easily pull it off in 2, and I think it might be possible with one, by rationing boost just right such that you run out during the jump and can use an air dash instead of a Boost, but that's a bit too elaborate for me at the moment, lol. I'll test it more thoroughly later. That brings our total to 2 Boosts and 7 Wisps. According to other comments Aquarium Park Act 4 can be beaten without Boosts, but I didn't notice that, so I came out with 1 Boost. Just start Boosting at the last second before dying to make it through the first section, then get as many rings as you can in the second section to survive all the way to the end. Asteroid Coaster 3 left me rather annoyed since I knew it was possible, I had heard of it being done before, but I didn't know how. I forgot jumping on an enemy without using the homing attack gives you crazy height, lol. Act 6 is of course the big one. I checked out the speedrun and found that trick myself, but after a little while I just couldn't pull it off, couldn't even get through the wall at the start. I'll keep trying later. Last but not least, the final boss. I don't fight it with boosts anyway since I find it more fun, so that wasn't a problem. Though, the final move is described as "Unlimited Colours", so... Nothing mattered in the end and the total is infinity! Woohoo! Gotta say, that challenge was a really fun one, and the video was great too. I'd love to see more of these!

27:46 That was me when I had to fight Tails in SA2 lol

When the crab boss in act 5 AP attacks with a punch if you step into the direction he's punching from and it won't hit you

[@ac3kard284]

23:00 you can just quick step to avoid every attack from the mini boss also great video

[@ac3kard284]

By side stepping to the side that he punches btw

14:15 You can skip this wisp use if you mash during the hover, because for whatever reason, mashing the button dramatically extends the duration by around 15 seconds. However, I don’t know if this works on any version besides the Wii version.

You can actually skip the boost in the ramp in planet wisp act 1 at 17:04 by jumping right as your about to complete running up the ramp, but I guess it doesn't matter since you dont count boosts

[@dominicbrock4350]

coming back to this video, you couldve boosted due to the perfect homing attack. it could still count as long as you dont pick up a white wisp, but the minute you do, the boost is off limits

[@sonicmaiden2871]

It is possible to beat the game without the wisps and that's what I love about this game! The wisps are required to beat Sonic lost world tough. I would like to see a video about if it's possible to beat Sonic lost world without wisps next.

[@banobobot]

I know you loath wisps, but I kinda like them, considering that I grew up with Sonic Colors. They kinda fit in to Sonic, considering eye color and brow ridges. Please don't kill me.

14:09 actually, killing the enemies at the beginning of the ship will give you rings to go through, and could help

[@blackdot105]

4:23 uh oh

[@ChuckE.CheesesIllinois]

Its a good evening when Chaomix uploads

[@TheRiddler6129]

Oh wow, I was not expecting this to actually be possible with less then 11 Wisp uses!

[@varenemerald]

Wisps are..okay. but like yknow. There's a large variety of chao that they can just replace wisps.

[@tatarkhan33]

You are becoming a better and better youtuber every time you upload

[@Shigademesh]

Actually guessed right on the money thank god for that final boss forcing you to use a wisp 😅
