I love how you give an in-universe explanation for the special stages and the sign posts

[@robert-asdf]

that is cool.

[@konanmoaye1]

I can't wait Mr James

[@StarlightWarriorGamerJames]

I just loved Sonic's face when Eggman dropped the spike ball on the seesaw. He knew exactly what to do.😂😂😂

[@isysmoran6186]

Right here? 😂😂😂 3:16

[@StarlightWarriorGamerJames]

​@@isysmoran6186 Eggxactly!😂

[@GiornoGiovannaTheBossofPassion]

Scrap brain and Sky base zone as an added touch in the end This should be legendary to see on his next retold video

[@HyperPwangeFred]

Yeah and I made two comments for him I'll tell you them: that is Sky Base and Are you gonna do Sky Base Next?

[@IvanFranco120]

Neat 3D effect on the Special Stage scene. And so, the zone.

[@LUSProductionsOfficial]

We've reached the level of not just sprite edits & effects, but full 3D animation. This is what was SEGA wanted to achieve in the early days of Sonic's legacy, & now it's realized in these animations!

[@bigmacsama]

Hooray it’s finally here! I do hope to see you do scrap brain zone and sky base zone next after this one.

[@somania.]

how did ur comment is 19 hour but the video is 23 minute?!??

[@sansundertale2090]

Commented when it was unlisted?

[@bigmacsama]

@@somania. Is that a really serious question? Also does it really matter right now?

[@JuliRocket]

@@somania. you need to use grammar correctly in order for people to understand your reply.

[@DiamondNoobie]

Awesome!!! Especially liked the 3D part!

[@masonjesse24]

YES!!! I was just found this series and watched labyrinth zone yesterday!

[@katsusashima6365]

As sonic the hedgehog would say" Wow, that wasn't just radical, That was waaaaay past cool!" That animation was so enjoyable I look forward to any more you create oh. And the special stage setup was awsome!

[@Hamond1989]

This is always such great work, I especially like the special stage, never though one could make Sonic 1 special stages look awesome :D

[@stolenalt]

That has to be the best remix of starlight zone ever.

[@GMKGoji01]

The 3D though! C'est Magnifique!

[@DiamondNoobie]

Hope sky base will be there!!! (After scrap brain, of course)

[@bigmacsama]

Don't worry, it will.

[@MintyFox_2009]

Ok the special stage is the best part, so much effects with 3D perspective. So good man!

[@garbagesharkk]

Yall be talking about the amazing animation and the incredible 3D part but NONE OF YALL ARE TALKING ABOUT THE MUSIC????? BRUH, THIS S&*T BE HITTIN DIFFRENT

[@CheddarVG]

That special stage is just incredible!

[@godzillathehedgehog93]

I've been here waiting for the longest time I can't believe it's real

[@anael2]

Gosh these ae so good i hope he uploads another episode fast because hes making us wait 2 months per episode

[@polyplayer]

I love John Tay's music!

[@charsonic1771]

This looks great and I’m excited for the next one

[@GBb-g6g]

And you had the best videos ever

[@thewizardslime6764]

OMG THE SPECIAL STAGE RACE WAS SO COOL! This thing is peak

[@Finalflash50]

this is a real showcase of good animation skills

[@dimitrisniaris]

OMG FINNALY STARLIGHT ZONE

[@socheata643]

Yay Sonic 1 but more animated!

[@Born_EZ]

This was awesome and the music as well was so good and the racing special stage scene was cool also well

[@TheAngryAnimator]

Been a while huh? Such a nice refresher to the Sonic Retold series. Excellent work as usual. Garfield Kart stream when?

[@utf64guy]

Wow!Special Stage Race Was Really Cool And Good!

You are correct, my good sir!

[@Leonzxx_01]

Finally!

[@PipProductions]

Man, that special stage scene rocked

[@WaffleVee]

It has been 4 months since part 14 (Labyrinth) came out. This episode is going to be good.

[@thejellyjar]

Great video! Aww man now I'm caught up 😢 now I gotta wait!

[@adrianamamede081]

Wow James, this episode is amazing!!! Sonic's race against Eggman on the special stage to see who gets the chaos emerald first was a genius idea!!! 🤩 And now Sonic has three chaos emeralds, while Eggman there are three to use on your machines in Scrap Brain, Sky Base and the Final Zone!!! 💎 Now I can't wait to see what happens next time!!! Next stop: Scrap Brain!

[@churuidleaf7794]

This Sprite Animation video is Awesome.

[@FlamingFoxProd]

Gotta love how the FIRST THING I hear when I open this video is someone's fan music (in this case, John Tay) and... It's credited nowhere. In fact, there's a LOT of other similarly stolen music here. But eh, what else do you expect from the modern sprite animation community? It's kinda just like that. Although, It's weird to see someone who's so talented with making their own work not bother to respect the hard work of other artists. Like if this was a shitty low effort animation, that would be one thing, but no, you're clearly someone with a lot of talent and skill - so it's baffling to see someone like that not snow the most basic, baseline level of respect to other artists.

[@HyperPwangeFred]

4:27 That Is Sky Base!

[@bigmacsama]

Nope, Scrap Brain Zone is next, dude. He's already working on Sky Base right now.
