Sonic Dork.
I have never understood why Oil Ocean in Sonic 2 gets disliked by a lot of fans. Probably my favorite gimmicks in Sonic 2 and it has my what I think is the best platforming segments in the game (the sloped wall run to the ascending square platforms I have always loved a ton).

Sonic Frontiers Revisited looks INCREDIBLE. I need to give it a try this week.

Every once in a while I get the urge to replay Sonic 3D Blast and am always frustrated by the fact we will probably never get a port of the Saturn version.

What I would give for a Saturn port that also somehow managed to include the changes made by Jon Burton in his director's cut.

Can't wait to see what people have been working on!! Hope to have something cool to show off one of these years too.

Out of curiosity, has having Sonic Unleashed more readily available via the Recomp and revisiting it in basically it's most "ideal" state substantially changed people's opinion on the game?

Think i need to play Shadow Gens again. I really love the fact that it treats its 2D stages like they exist in a 3D space with its paths weaving in and out of the Z axis and not just left to right. The game is just so dang polished and it really is the current Modern Sonic gameplay standard.

All PC games should have a quit to desktop option from the pause menu. Nothing more frustrating than having to navigate to the main menu in order to quit, especially if it requires sitting through splash screens before you can even get to the option. I can force quit, but I'd really prefer not to.

I think I've gotten to the point where I can say "I'm Here" is my favorite Sonic vocal theme and it's really not even close. There's so many top tier vocal themes in the series, but "I'm Here" is the only one that I would put in rotation alongside music I would be listening to outside of game music.

Over the last year I have really gotten into The Beatles.

Hottest of hot takes:

They're really good.

Really hoping the next mainline Sonic title brings back something closer to Adventure 1 and 2's jump and air controls. Lining up landings with a super tight turning radius just makes for so much more engaging small-scale platforming.

I'm working on a fun little creative project for the youtube channel! No concrete time frame on when it will be done, but it's a different type of thing from my usual discussion videos or game mods.

I've been out of the loop on Sonic discourse for a while. I'm not even sure what the discourse is lately, but to me it feels like a pretty good time to be a Sonic fan. The games have been getting better, the movies keep getting better, it's other forms of media are good, can't ask for much more!

I'm not huge on kart racers, so i expected not to care much at all for Sonic Racing Crossworlds but I changed my tune pretty quick after seeing people streaming it. It looks like a LOT of fun. I definitley will be picking it up, but still kind of wish we got a new Riders instead.

Absolutely loving the latest Sonic Galactic demo. Top tier Classic Sonic and aesthetically excellent. Drop dashing up walls is such a clever mechanic! Has anyone else been having issues with the checkpoint special stage entrances crashing the game in Verdant Isle Act 2 though?

The other day I was reminded that Rodea the Sky Soldier existed and I ended up deciding to check to see if my local used game store had it and it turned out they did for $25 so I ended up grabbing it mostly because of its weird development/release history even though I don't own a Wii or WiiU.

For those interested, my Natural Movement mod for Shadow Generations is now compatible with the Movie DLC update.

Well, I've made the jump! I still don't plan to be nearly as active as I used to be back in the day, but I still have occasional projects that crop up that I'm always excited to share.
