Sonic Rush - Altitude Limit S-Rank (Sonic - Act 1/Act 2/Boss)

[@MitchTH]

That moment when you realise the 'stage clear' jingle is actually from this zone

[@thederpyinkling]

Mitchel Jansen no the stage clear jingle is in here not "from here"

[@SeiyaTempest]

@@thederpyinkling You really think they took the stage clear music and used it for a stage? More likely the other way around, like how the "select your character" theme is part of the Dead Line theme

[@danofsteel785]

And the 'boss clear' jingle comes from the 7th boss theme

[@tinyclover3849]

​@@SeiyaTempest honestly i feel like both is equally likely.

[@AnthonyVCL]

i swear when i heard this song and it went to THAT part it felt like when you somehow connect the dots of a wider mystery, seeing how this and that is connected and part of a larger whole? man it brought such a feel of whimsy very little has given me

How long ago did you play rush?

[@lawuro]

I played rush years ago, I lost my 3ds and card, beat all special stages EXCEPT THAT ONE. Just switched to Blaze’s.

this stage is hard but feels satisfying when you beat it

[@HammerBro101]

This Zone is difficult as all can be, but it's miles better than Sky Canyon, Techno Base, and Egg Utopia from Sonic Advance 2.

[@lostsoul3089]

Almost every level in a Sonic game is better than Advance 2 levels

[@meno3104]

​@@lostsoul3089I disagree except for Sky Canyon

[@dymaz_azure]

sky cannion is ez, altitude limit es FUCKING hell

[@ivonnesaysmiau]

skill issue these stages are piss easy, altitude limit still kicks my ass every once in a while

[@imme9246]

This level was tough

[@DatOneCat]

@3:09 This entire section on my copy of the game is bugged out to the point that it's impossible to get through it as Sonic. When I break the barriers and get launched off the spring onto the first descending platform, it randomizes the 5th or 6th platform's position placing it way too high for Sonic to reach at times and sometimes just completely removing it altogether.

[@JudgmentWaltz]

I'm not sure what do you mean by randomizing it or how it's bugged, but it is a BS section overall. You have to be fast enough to reach the farthest-right platform with precise jumping to keep it at a height to reach the goal.

[@DatOneCat]

@@JudgmentWaltz What I meant by "randomize" is that sometimes the platform is positioned just out of reach for Sonic's maximum jump height where you'd think you can make it, but you're just inches out of reach and fall to your death. And sometimes it's at its normal position only for the next few platforms to be bugged out in a similar fashion. It's really annoying and it has prevented me from ever finishing Sonic's side of the game.

This is already enough footage for me to at least willingly see more footage of this game.

[@yrrr4871]

*THE MUSIC IS THE SAME AS WHEN YOU COMPLETE THE LEVEL*

[@MarioMastar]

Should've called this stage "Patience Limit" cause if you're not, you'll lose it real fast. XD Hardest stage in the game. Probably in 2D Sonic overall.

[@NerfedFalcon]

...Wait, you can boost through the spikes on rails?

[@JudgmentWaltz]

...Yep.

[@NerfedFalcon]

@@JudgmentWaltz Huh. I never knew that. That'll make replaying the game a lot easier.

i never did as a kid… i had to return to this game now so i can beat it and i just beat act 2 of this stage in one attempt im so proud of myself lmao

[@desmondmalone438]

Wait, you could break the spikes with Boost?!?!?!?!?!? WTF I WENT SO FUCKING SLOW FOR NOTHING

[@marianalucia6537]

“Get edgy” XD

[@namefart-zp3ov]

I love this zone it gets bad at the end of each act but still really fun to speedrun i also like the parachute and the weird rocket thing you stand on they work pretty good as breathers

[@keenadoringmemefg565]

I remember I had 15 lives and I lost them in this stage because of platforming and the extreme speed of the boost

[@UltraSTH]

This zone, Special Stage 7, and Egg King (Normal Mode) are all extremely hard, I miss when Sonic games were actually hard

[@kingstarscream3807]

Sonic games aren't known for their difficulty. Sonic Rush is a standout. All prior 2d Sonic games are easier.

[@40mihirkulkarni44]

Horrendously late comment, but I've had this game since 2012, and I never realised that you could use Y boost while midair, or you could use invincibility frames while jumping on spikes to finish the act faster. I feel like a massive idiot

[@personaaddict852]

This was my favorite level when I was a kid!

[@SeiyaTempest]

And my least favourite, so difficult...

[@Adalz27]

dude this was torture for me, could never get past that annoying boss. that is the reason i couldn’t finish the game as a kid.

[@flux2242]

@@Adalz27 This is pretty embarrassing to say but i used to own sonic rush when I was young and ending up breaking my ds just because of the boss. I used to mash like crazy and I would die to the boss no matter how bad and ending up pretty it by flicking it too hard from what i remember

[@iceclimberswereamistake]

I wonder how many people just threw their computer out the window in anger because they realized that the whole time you never had to jump over all the spikes on the grind rail in act 2...

[@SeiyaTempest]

I figured it out by accidentally boosting into them 😅

[@iceclimberswereamistake]

Me too, saved me nightmares. (Though I can’t say that about the final boss...)
