I absolutely love that the Chaos Emerald designed to give you a clue where Froggy is just shows him swimming in a pond with a fuckload of fish and the only identifying feature was a water fall visible in the back. These godly powers and it's just: "He's in a pond! GO FIND HIM!"

[@Exidel]

To be fair, if you sit there long enough on it, the music changes to indicate the location. While he was on it, it swapped to the Chao Garden music, indicating he was in that region.

[@kokorikopi]

Unironically this is a genius idea. The coolest part of the Big levels in SA1 that most people don't get to see is that the levels are HUGELY extended with entirely unique portions for him. The roguelike mode is cool but I also think it'd be neat if there was a "permanent" mode with, like, incentive to catch regular fish and buy upgrades with rings.

[@Triff3599]

Hearing Big talk aggressively is probably the funniest thing to me, as someone who likes the character unironically lmao (Also watched a friend, who's a fellow Big fan, play this on a Discord call last year, and we were surprised how much detail was put into this game's world, even with the clear mixing of preexisting Sonic game assets; makes me kinda legitimately want a Big or Knuckles game like this but obviously with more substance to the gameplay lol)

[@MrOofio64]

That's when you know you fucked up. If you made Big mad, _make sure you run._

[@Triff3599]

"It's not nice to tease my friends," Big said while sharpening his fishhook and glaring at you. You took a step back, but the feline had already begun his cast. There was nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. The cat was out to catch something other than fish and frogs today.

10:05 I hate the fact that I'm such a huge Sonic obsessor, that I just KNOW that the UFO is actually a scrapped asset in the background of Marble Hill Zone, which was shown in early screenshots but never made it into the actual game, and was also recently seen in a development build.

Actually, the weird spherical object seen at 9:56 might not actually be the Saturn logo! Given that the part of the map is supposed to be Marble Zone, it's actually likely the scrapped UFO element of Marble's background in earlier versions of Sonic 1. If that's the case then this is a pretty neat thing to reference, since I always thought the ufo's were a really interesting element of Marble that got cut in Sonic 1.
