Sonic Utopia (Early Demo) - Green Hill Zone (Extended)

I really enjoyed listening to this Green Hill Zone remix (it's one of a kind in my opinion), so I decided to make an extension for it.
Disclaimer: All music and images belong to their respective owners. All I did was extend the original soundtrack through some audio editing.

[@ona512]

The track sounds happy, free-spirited, excited, and lonely at the same time. Whatever the leading instrument is, it gives off this tone of being happy in solitude, but not forgetting exactly was solitude is. The drumline isn't overbearing, so it leaves only a small impact and lets the softer instruments make most of the music. The soft instruments make up the happy and free-spirited tones. Also I think I hear a violin and violin-sounding things. Violins usually are gloomy to me. Since the model is a smol little Classic Sonic, the whole atmosphere of the game is mysterious and makes you want to explore, since it's known that Classic Sonic doesn't talk. Non-talking characters are usually mysterious, especially in the mental department. Because of this careful mix of music, it does express what I think is Sonic's mentality: free, a little melancholic but all as well eager to get out there. It gets you into the mood of playing as Sonic in a new place. I'm sure he would be as excited as we are to check out every corner of the game, and this music does so good in giving us that final push into common ground, if you weren't on Sonic's wavelength already. Hello I'm like this 👌 close to making a five-paragraph essay on this song. haha

[@ona512]

thanks, let's hope they find a quirk to work a gametype like this in one day? :3 maybe a big collection game like the Spyro series?

This game took the intro cutscenes from sonic cd and turned it into a game, and it's glorious.

[@shadowmariogaming9702]

Actually I think the creator went for more of a Sonic OVA run-around style game, check out the first action cutscenes of when Sonic and Tails run through the land of darkness. Even some of the animations are like that. Like how sonic runs into the spring and snaps out of his ball form to jump, and how he snaps into ball form when rolling or doing a homing attack in a standing animation. If you don't see the second point run off a ledge and hit the jump button, he'll snap into a spinning ball like Sonic OVA

[@acecanti4175]

The aesthetic of CD and the ova is just so fucking good

I know this would be lovely for mania but no close to perfect. The song is suppose to represent the beauty of what can be done with classic sonic in 3D!
