@Oshabot 16 honestly I was gonna be like "wow did I seriously just straight up link to a subreddit in a youtube comment months ago" but then I saw my comment and was pleasantly surprised with how I actaully did something with that tired trend with that in mind your response is perhaps the perfect response to my dumb shit
Someone who gets me, holy shit. I'm gonna be honest Sky Chase Zone from Sonic Adventure is probably my favorite rendition of the plane gimmick, all classic and modern games included.
I don't get how MS act 1 is better than SC, they're literally the same except MS act 1 has the 15 second train moment. It's terrible and honestly makes me wanna play Knuckles' route JUST to avoid MS act 1.
8:12 Huh I've played through this game 5 times and not once have I seen that part on the final boss. Completely new to me. You'd think just by chance I'd have been sent there atleast once. On the topic of those bosses. I have a hunch they were unused bosses, so instead of scrapping them entirely they just added them into the final boss.
After watching this video (yes I realize I’m more than a few years late, I just re-entered my sonic phase) I decided to buy this game. And I’d just like to say that no review ever made could possibly convey the pure and absolute joy I felt in playing this game. I only ever encountered one or two parts where I got annoyed, and even then I knew it was my fault and not the games. The game was made with more love and passion than I could’ve ever imagined. From the returning mechanics, the countless references and easter eggs, the music, the gameplay, the art, and the almost completely bug-less run through, you could tell… no… you could FEEL the passion these devs felt in making this game. (And by almost bug-less, I mean I literally can’t even remember the only bug that happened because it was so insignificant and didn’t ever happen again) Everything they did in this game was so faithful to what Sonic represents, without just simply falling back on nostalgia to sell copies. When I played old zones and recognized old mechanics, they didn’t feel old at all, in fact, they felt like a completely new and different experience from what they originally were. And by god the controls were so smooth, I never felt like I was getting screwed over by level design or by slippery/clunky controls. The difficulty surprised me, as I consistently felt challenged but not to the extent to where I was frustrated with it. (I was never very good at the genesis games so that’s why I had difficulty.) Overall, I can’t stress enough how fantastic this game is, and how much praise these devs deserve for giving us this absolute fucking masterpiece. 100/10
Yeah, and there's so many references and surprises that even though I spoiled myself on a few thumbnails and videos waiting for the PC release, it still felt like a blind playthrough. I don't find it as replayable as others do, but it was a really fun experience regardless. Looking forward to Evening Star's next game
I loved the shit out of that one too. On a related note, every time I see a Sonic-themed game at an arcade that I haven't seen Cybershell mention, I ask whoever's near me "Is *_this_* the most obscure Sonic game?"
"THESE GUYS KNEW WHAT THEY WERE DOING!" Hell yes. Hang your heads in shame, Sega. It should not have taken this, but thank the gaming gods we're finally here.
I love Sonic Mania. But I think what makes it so sweet is the bitterness developed along the way. If they released a game just like it after 3/Knuckles I don't think it would be as awesome
Sonic Mania 2 with digital lock-on tech that allows for both mania 1&2 to be played as one full game with the super emeralds and hyper forms as your reward for completing all 14 special stages as well as a playable Amy!
Does anyone else think it's weird that Amy doesn't roll into a ball even though she's a hedgehog? I mean even Tails rolls into a ball and he's a fucking fox.
Ok guys. You know the thing Cybershell was saying about being able to use every ability? You can! Go to the level select screen, (at the title screen, press *up up, down down, up up up up* to activate level select. You need to do it after Sonic appears, but before the *press any button to begin* appears. go to no save, put on debug mode, select any other options, but make sure debug mode is on. Then start the game and hold square on PS4, don’t know about any other console.) then put into the sound test 9001. That lets you use every ability at once! Also, 6124 lets you disable Super Music, meaning that you can still listen to level themes while Super!
The music ended up being my favorite part of playing this game. The levels were incredible, the bosses were great, but the music is the binding force for everything. It almost makes up for the missing transitions because everything flows SO WELL.
In Press Garden Act 1 there is a point pretty far into the Act that falling to the very bottom, you'll find yourself in a pit with two Splat jars on both sides. If you stand against the wall, they likely won't be able to hit you and they'll just keep spawning. Spin dash back and forth and let them spawn a bit and keep it up, you'll get to either 10,000 or 100,000 points on each badnik (can't remember right now) and it's a good way to farm 1-ups. You can also get a lamp post right before then so if you time out? Who gives a shit, go get yourself 30 more lives
@@moonman2183 Nah, pricing aside Origins looks great. all the Retro Engine versions of the Classic games and now 3K is finally getting the same treatment.
I have ideas on what the missing transitions can be: Flying Battery -> Press Garden:The player jumps off FBZ through the roof of PGZ/FBZ crashes into the PGZ and the player leaps off the remains. Stardust Speedway -> Hydrocity:The player reaches Robotnik in his eggmobile who is overseeing the construction of his statue,and he uses the Phantom Ruby to warp the player to HCZ. Hydrocity -> Mirage Saloon:Robotnik rises from the wreckage of the Laundro Mobile and uses the Phantom Ruby to warp the player to MSZ. Oil Ocean -> Lava Reef:Robotnik,covered in oil,splashes up to the surface of the oil and uses the Phantom Ruby to warp the player to LRZ. Lava Reef -> Metallic Madness:Sonic/Tails jump onto a teleporter that brings them to Little Planet. Metallic Madness -> Titanic Monarch:The player jumps into a shrink ray and climbs through a tight metal crevice,and jump out onto the construction site of the TMZ.
Simply put for anyone who's like me and has to rush the video do to being late for work, Mania is a love letter to long time Sonic fans who happen to be that much into the series and all its cut content, like many of us are. A game by fans for fans is how one could phrase it.
Im surprised with the amount of Chaotix references in Mania, I feel like one of the bigger standouts is Encore Mode, which is actually quite similiar if you think about it. (Getting your partner back uses a similiar animation, all characters are playable, different time of day in Encore levels, etc.) Even the Blue ring makes an appearance, now all I wish is a possible remaster or sequel to Chaotix & Knuckles since it flopped the first time around.
15:07 I actually had an idea for that, after knuckles landed in mirage saloon the act would have starting animation of hit putting on a hat that he found on the ground and then just throwing it away after wearing it for a second.
As much as I love this game, and I love it... I wish there were more Sonic 1 levels that were added/revised. Marble Zone and Starlight Zone from Sonic 1 would have been great; those are two of my favorite.
ya know...I agree with you on the transformation part, Cybershell. I always thought it would be interesting to see new transformations. maybe incorporate the aspects of the elemental shield your character had active at the time into the transformation...so that, instead of going super, they would transform into an elemental form based on the shield that they were using.
this is what the internet is all about... talking about a super fast blue mouse thing with spikes' lastest and greatest rendition, and listen to a fellow nerd talk about shit i already know but still love to hear again and again and again. Thank you internet, and an absolute great thanks to Cybershell
I’ve been heavily considering for the longest time, the reason for my indecisiveness being that I’ve never been good at 2D sonic games (my first 2D game was Sonic Chaos if that’s any indication as to my start, and my very first sonic game was Colors) but this decided it, the second I get the chance I’m downloading this game. Thanks, pal
I kinda feel like I'm the only one who's not a fan of Mania. I'm glad others like it though. The fact there's so many people buying it makes me reassured that there's gonna be more Sonic games.
I wasn't a huge fan of Mania either, the only new stage I enjoyed was Press Garden, and IMO if I wanted to play the Genesis stages, i would just go play the Genesis games instead of playing Mania.
6:09 to hell with Izuka. He didn't design any of the original characters, And I doubt he came up with the concept of a transformation for sonic. Just because he's the current head of sonic team, does not make him the Word of God on sonic lore, at least in my eyes. This guy made some really questionable decisions with sonic, so it's doubtful that he has any good reason for hating the super emeralds.
He was one 5th of the original sonic team, but I don't think too much of him either. He'd act like a rock star back in the day, and had kind of an ego, but that's fine, I mean when you help make sonic, you get to be a bit cocky. When he decided to screw over the development of Sonic Xtreme, that's when I lost respect for him. You see, he didn't want to lend them an engine, unbeknownst to the developers who used it in their development of the game, as they were desperate for an engine, and already effectively worked like slaves. This act, to me shows that he symbolically cut ties with the IP, as this game might have been a saving grace for the franchise at the time, and he refused to help. He threatened to leave the company if they went ahead with using this engine, and just like that the project was cancelled. I doubt he'd want to come back, and I personally wouldn't want someone that toxic to work on sonic again.
PiousMoltar We don't need Yuji Naka back, we just need Izuka to either resign from his position or fuck up so badly that he gets fired. I'd honestly prefer he just resign; that way he gets to leave the company on a high note with complete dignity.
We don't need anyone back, we just need Sega to fire the entirety of sonic team and hire some competent people. Good games do come from Sega, very rarely from sonic team.
I legit though ever since I watched this that he was being honest. So by the time I got sonic mania, i played through that stage, and beat it on my first try. It's only after I watched the fandub of Shadow the Hedgehog did I get the reference.
How could you forget the Heavy Rider when he makes his jumps? "YEAH! *confetti* And I ABSOLUTELY agree with the level transitions; it was my biggest gripe too. Weird how we think so much alike.
I'm guessing the "Who the hell are Bean, Bark and Fang?" video will take as long to make as the SONIC 2 BONUS VIDEO? Never mind, I'm an idiot. Found the video. Can't believe you actually made it.
Metallic Madness is basically Scrap Brain but with better music so makes sense that they picked it I adore the fact that they actually referenced the Sonic OVA in this game. I watched that thing a million times as a kid
Why not? She's cute. Maybe to give Eggman more expanded stuff for his family or something. Plus I think we need another villain who doesn't die off in the end, or useless wastes of space (cough dEaDlY sIx cough).
This video makes me so sad. It’s a constant reminder of just how excited we were for a sequel to sonic mania. But…that’s not happening. Not now, probably not for the next 10 years. The mania devs are making their own game right now, and there are rumors that a mania sequel got scrapped. Whether or not the specifics of that is true…there’s no denying that we aren’t getting mania 2. Let this be a constant reminder that sega AND sonic team will always, and I mean ALWAYS choose the worst possible option for this series, no matter what
Yeah... The best we can do now is support and recommend their game whenever it releases. It won't give us a Mania sequel, but I definitely have more faith in them than I do Sonic Team
@@gamejitzu you know they’re going to create an absolute BANGER. There’s no deadline they have to meet, and as sonic fans, I’m sure they know what’s good game design from bad lmao
I don’t like the difficulty progression with the levels being long and easy and the bosses being hard on your first playthrough until you figure them out. and being widescreen and 4K gives an overload of visual information especially with all the layers of background and foreground with parallax scrolling makes it hard to focus. I would’ve preferred a 4:3 and 240p game
I would like to inform you that this feedback on anti-jokes has helped me with come up with better comments. Thank you for your feedback, and have a good day!
I thought I would be okay with a "no lives" type, but having that in Sonic Forces gave me such a feeling of revulsion over it that I realized I can't play sonic games without the lives system.

Stardust Speedway -> Hydrocity:The player reaches Robotnik in his eggmobile who is overseeing the construction of his statue,and he uses the Phantom Ruby to warp the player to HCZ.
Hydrocity -> Mirage Saloon:Robotnik rises from the wreckage of the Laundro Mobile and uses the Phantom Ruby to warp the player to MSZ.

I legit though ever since I watched this that he was being honest. So by the time I got sonic mania, i played through that stage, and beat it on my first try. It's only after I watched the fandub of Shadow the Hedgehog did I get the reference.
We need another classic sonic game with all original zones and even more features
the fact that they took your criticism and added zone transitions in plus
7:03 the uses for the abilities are all different enough that you can have them on the same button and it’ll work great
How could you forget the Heavy Rider when he makes his jumps?
"YEAH! *confetti*
And I ABSOLUTELY agree with the level transitions; it was my biggest gripe too. Weird how we think so much alike.
Black_C*cks I'm guessing that the "YEAH" is a reference to the "WOO" in the Palmtree Panic (or whatever it's called) music
I'm guessing the "Who the hell are Bean, Bark and Fang?" video will take as long to make as the SONIC 2 BONUS VIDEO?
Never mind, I'm an idiot. Found the video. Can't believe you actually made it.
before mania: sonic lol that sucks after mania: OMG SONIC YES COME TO ME LORD JESUS
(Some people Still after Mania) lol Sonic Sux. (Why do people do that?)
I dunno people are confiusing sometimes
Sonic 3 sonic 2 sonic 1 sonic 3&k and cd are at your door with a knife
Metallic Madness is basically Scrap Brain but with better music so makes sense that they picked it
I adore the fact that they actually referenced the Sonic OVA in this game. I watched that thing a million times as a kid
Plot twist
You were exiting Hydrocity to get to the Tornado in order to fly to Mirage Saloon
ok but sonic 3 bonus video
EXACTLY!!!!!!!
snoop dogg in a funny hat I love your name lmao
ChineeFoo and his hat
No where's sonic mania bonus video
smoke weed
I wouldn't be surprise if Sonic Mania overshadows Sonic Forces.
Agreed. Forces is looking bad imo
And guess what? Forces was bad and Mania overshadowed it. Fucking Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back was better than Forces
Viewtiful Z
I wouldn’t go that far with that last statement. But yeah, Forces was definitely lacking
Amethyst Maelstorm YOU PREDICTED IT
Boost formula needs to go, bring back the Adventure style gameplay
Did anyone notice that at 11:43 knuckles has 32x lives
( his own game was on the add on 32x)
It wasn’t his own game. It was only called knuckles chaotix in America
I like how most of what you brought us was addressed. You can turn time off. You can also select the sonic abilities from save files.
My favorite part of this game will be the transition into Super Sonic in the final zone of the game. It just feels so good.
Am i the only one who thinks the hardboiled heavies theme sounds like the squidsisters from splatoon are singing it
Huh, i had the same feeling that an Inkling was singing the Metallic Madness act 1 theme.
I still play it . So good! I hope they keep making more and expansive
I’m blue sphere guy
Blue Sphere guy here, confirming - we do f*cking exist.
The fact that Sonic Mania was released 3 years ago makes me feel really old
2020 doesn’t count
Nearly 5 years now :O
props to the guy at 16:20 with the name "Cybershell Gets Me Hard"
Wheres the playthrough where you jump and say " im sorry SEGA!"
2:57 was that a reference to shadow the hedgehog “Wheres that damn fourth chaos emerald” 😅😅😅
I recently got a physical copy of mania plus, and not only is there a reversible cover, but there is an art book which is just stunning
There is no shot the devs didn’t see this vid before making Mania+
My hardest special stage was
THAT DAMN FOURTH CHAOS EMERALD!
How'd you feel about the 'eggette' idea boyo?
Fun idea from the community or bs :P
its bs
modern fanboy ^^^
It's a good idea
Why not? She's cute. Maybe to give Eggman more expanded stuff for his family or something. Plus I think we need another villain who doesn't die off in the end, or useless wastes of space (cough dEaDlY sIx cough).
So where’s that Bark, Bean, & Fang Video?
Right after the Sonic Mania Bonus Video.
Right here.
EpicsonicFTW you that this comment is gonna get old
EpicsonicFTW wheres the bonus video
I'm glad they fixed the transition problem in Mania Plus
I found it fascinating that game gear sound effects happen in Heavy Magician's fight, it's a very specific sound effect too
"The true sonic the hedgehog 4"
Bonus Video 3 & Knuckles
Stop it theres already a sonic 3 and knuckles bonus video
@@kaylupp6594 no not a sonic 3 & knuckles bonus video but a bonus video & knuckles
This video makes me so sad. It’s a constant reminder of just how excited we were for a sequel to sonic mania. But…that’s not happening. Not now, probably not for the next 10 years. The mania devs are making their own game right now, and there are rumors that a mania sequel got scrapped. Whether or not the specifics of that is true…there’s no denying that we aren’t getting mania 2. Let this be a constant reminder that sega AND sonic team will always, and I mean ALWAYS choose the worst possible option for this series, no matter what
Yeah... The best we can do now is support and recommend their game whenever it releases. It won't give us a Mania sequel, but I definitely have more faith in them than I do Sonic Team
@@gamejitzu you know they’re going to create an absolute BANGER. There’s no deadline they have to meet, and as sonic fans, I’m sure they know what’s good game design from bad lmao
You cant scrap something if it was never their plan to begin with
@@mikoaj5002 did I ever say it was scrapped?
@@flamingoodness4923 oh no, i just meant for the rumor. I only wanted to state that its fake, thats it :P
Where's the cooking meth with Cybershell video?
SaddleDaddle *bonus video
ed, really
3:33 Indeed, I was. The minute I unlocked the Blue Sphere minigame in the extras menu, it was as if six hours of my life just disappeared.
"i don't think there should be a time over, no one would care."
there's an option to turn it off, very cool
thanks dad
I don’t like the difficulty progression with the levels being long and easy and the bosses being hard on your first playthrough until you figure them out. and being widescreen and 4K gives an overload of visual information especially with all the layers of background and foreground with parallax scrolling makes it hard to focus. I would’ve preferred a 4:3 and 240p game
@Tom4704 I have and I do
4:54 speak for yourself
Ken Penders owns the concept of Knuckles wearing a hat. Lol
Mania plus has act transition in every level
And mania plus added a no time over option
5:16, it's called Sonic mania plus
Where's the Sonic Mania bonus video?
Shiny Emerald up ur arse
I would like to inform you that this feedback on anti-jokes has helped me with come up with better comments. Thank you for your feedback, and have a good day!
I thought I would be okay with a "no lives" type, but having that in Sonic Forces gave me such a feeling of revulsion over it that I realized I can't play sonic games without the lives system.
Him: says DAMN 5th chaos emerald
Everyone and me: IT’S THE DAMN 4TH CHAOS EMERALD!!
