Why Sonic GT is my FAVORITE Sonic Fangame!

Because of SAGE '23 happening I got in the mood to talk about other fangames, specifically my favorite one, Sonic GT.
If you’re curious about any other thoughts I might have about the game, ask me in the comments or in my Discord server.

I love how GT is still getting love to this day. I loved working with Greedy on this project as a creative consultant and alpha tester.

[@SonicDaHog]

Wow, that's really cool that you got to help with the game.

[@Gnidel]

What a humble credit, when you made Bumper Engine, which was used as a base for this game.

[@bussie.BMC.]

A few maps mods and this would be legendary

[@Volt_Fortnite]

I remember playing sonic gt in school and it was so much fun playing a high quality sonic fangame

[@Akabalthy]

Also known as "Sonic Goku Time"

[@SonicDaHog]

Interesting way of thinking about it

[@VGlevelz]

“Stay tuned for scenes in the next GT”

[@DonutSwordsman]

The last level when trying to best your own time gave me some of the best thrills of speed running, and I'm a casual and never do that so I think that says something

[@Treyshellz]

Ok man, I liked this review of GT. I did a review on my channel 9 months ago at the time of me typing this comment, but yours feels way more professional than mine. I personally disagree with the dialogue. I don't like how Sonic was being a jerk to Shadow. To me personally, it felt out of character for Sonic. How did you not care for Classic Sonic? He's the third best character in the game and I got Hill Top Zone as my favorite song in GT. One thing I want to point out is your criticism of the game. It's rare to see people criticize fan games when they get nothing but praise. GT is a fire fan game, but it isn't without it's flaws and you pointed some of them out like level design being too big and the player getting lost too easily. This was a great video essay and I hope you do more like this in the future

[@SonicDaHog]

I agree with Sonic's aggression to shadow, over time while editing and watching through this part the thought was coming to me, but it took some time for me to come to that thought. If classic sonic could bounce and stomp, I would like him a lot more but the versatility of those two actions plus the homing attack is why I find him useless, the extra speed and height can be fun though. I might do more videos like this but I hate audio editing so probably not soon.

[@Jerry_joemama]

i’m a big fan of this video man, i’m kinda mad that you don’t get the recognition you deserve tho.keep up the good work bro

Thank you for the encouragement

[@blazeneko3384]

In SA2 for the DC at least, holding down button only makes you faster going down, you also keep or pick up more speed by moving left and right, this is only in DC, it's my fav type of grinding, it's sad it's never got as good in latter games

[@SonicDaHog]

That's true, rail grinding has fallen off since sa2 but I never knew holding down did anything on the Dreamcast version

[@blazeneko3384]

@@SonicDaHog holding down the B button makes you tilt forwards like in the GC, but only on down hills, they made keeping top speed skill base, failing it punishes you, but that's only for going left and right, and because it doesn't work on any other game, people can't go the top seep, because you can go ridiculous speeds on the grind levels

[@blazeneko3384]

@@SonicDaHog remembered it wrong, when holding down the B button you press left or right to keep your speed on turns, as you lose speed if you don't, there is a video called the definitive way to play Sonic Adventure 2, he explains it a lot better than I can

[@DonutSwordsman]

It's still one of my favorites. Put on some ost and just go into the zone

[@user-js9sn9sr9f]

sonic fans on their way to make fan games that are better than most of the official one(i am also a sonic fan but i'm too lazy to program)

I'm too busy making videos about sonic to make games about sonic

[@user-js9sn9sr9f]

both of us are saving energy, we are equal@@SonicDaHog

[@This-is-a-commentt]

great video... what are your thoughts on the boost anyway?

[@SonicDaHog]

That's a really good question, I think the boost is ok if the level design is made for it and I think unleashed does theat the best because the stages aren't just boost to win it require having good reactions speeds and knowledge over sonics controls to be able to boost for a while, or you could go slower and use the boost when you know what obstacles are in the way. Forces has basically none of that and is mostly just boost always until reaching a platforming section (if there even is one). Sonic GT is probably the best example of how a possible non boost 3d game could work with the level design but if there was an official Sonic game without a boost and that style of level design it would probably have more, but shorter levels. That's a long answer

Project 06 is on my list just wait (a month or 2)

[@echos.ofsilence]

i really do love sonic gt i hope it has another update where they just make tails playable

[@SonicDaHog]

Yeah, that's something I wish was in it but the game is finished so I don't expect any updates

[@echos.ofsilence]

@@SonicDaHog it would really make sense if u think about it considering the role tails played maybe they'll add a mod loader or smth

[@bluudevil4483]

This wouldn't really flow with tails play style, this game was going for a different type of 3d sonic game, hence why all the playable characters are subtle variation clones of sonic himself which was a intentional choice form the dev I'm sure. Sonic project hero before it went classic esthetic only was perfect 3d control for sonic tails and knuckles.

[@echos.ofsilence]

@@bluudevil4483 he could be a character meant for exploration or something, the faster you go the longer you can fly or smth like that

[@enjyfine]

Hi dude. I advise you to try playing a game called Spark the Electric Jester 3. This is a cool 3D platformer based on Sonic Adventure

[@SonicDaHog]

I've heard about that but I would rather do it in my free time cause I don't think it would do well as a video, but thanks for the recommendation

[@bendyboy7179]

We need a sequel.

[@SonicDaHog]

Hopefully

[@sourlab]

I dont know how i can find ppl who still say omens the best and bash on gt saying it a demo

[@SonicDaHog]

Omens is ok I played it recently and it was pretty fun but hass some flaws that I don't feel like talking about now, GT is just a short game but its a finished short game

[@sourlab]

Extremely late answer but i completely agree ​@@SonicDaHog

[@tjunior5238]

How are you playing sonic fan games? Are you on a PC?

[@SonicDaHog]

No, I recently got a gaming laptop, and compared to other fan games like omens, sonic gt doesn't require as much power to run well

[@tjunior5238]

What is the gaming laptop called, and what website do you use to play Sonic Fan games?

[@SonicDaHog]

Asus rog zephyrus g14 2023, I download them from sfghq or gamejolt

scroll through the comments some more, you'd be surprised at how many there are on a sonic video

Personally it would be great if it kept going but just ends on a demo

[@SonicDaHog]

The game is finished, it's just somewhat short

[@lordx8844]

@@SonicDaHog the problem is that it's short

[@KervinAbreu]

What about sonic robot blast 2

[@SonicDaHog]

I've only played through the first zone of that, but it's mainly carried by mods and playing online. At least form what I've heard and seen

[@KervinAbreu]

try to play sonic omens and sonic time twisted

[@SonicDaHog]

I played through all of omens a few weeks ago, but I haven't heard of time twisted, so I'll check that out

[@randomistough0]

can't disagree. there's like 3 levels in this game and I've already favoured it way more than sonic robo blast 2. I'm sorry but I just like sonic GT more.

[@SonicDaHog]

I agree, good gameplay can make up for a short game

[@peety0792]

Dragon ball GT??

What's next sonic super get it db gt and dbs dragon ball z

I'm assuming this is a reference that I don't know, someone explain it

[@zorancuga1236]

@SonicDaHog after dragon ball z ended toei wanted more from the series so they made dragon ball gt its kinda like a continuation/alternative universe with alot of stuff such as super saiyan 4 yeah there's 4 super saiyans now And given the fact the game is called sonic gt I made that reference Now dragon ball super is the modern series of dragon ball with alot of the current content like movies games ect and if you put the series in cannon dragon ball gt comes after super in the timeline despite it not being cannon but yeah there's the reference watch dragon ball it's f**king awsome

Thank you for the explanation
