Sonic fans when a 2d game is hold right to win: "oh dear, oh dear. gorgeous."
Sonic fans when a 3d game is boost to win: "you fucking donkey!"
On a more serious note I have to go against the grain and say I do not particularly like this art style. The level design is awful; when it isn't boring and automated it's "where the fuck do I go". The physics are fine I guess, except the drop dash, which is TERRIBLE in this game; half the time it slows you down. The special stages are boring, and the bosses are awful. As a whole this is just really bad imo.

Once again Sonic fans make a better Sonic game than Sega has in quite some time. The art direction and visual style are perfect. I especially love the Kirby sound effect samples. No Sonic game has looked this good before. That being said, sometimes the visuals can be overwhelming. There are a decent amount of creative ideas in this game. You will ride a rollercoaster in a volcanic area, fly with a plant propeller, or fight a train. The level design is easily the weakest aspect of this game. It is very simplistic with little to no enemies. A lot of the time you will just hold right. The super peel out from Sonic CD is back, which is nice. I typically use it more than the spin dash since it is faster, and I don’t need the defense from the spin dash. I love how Sonic’s legs get all squiggly when he charges up the super peel out. The music as with most Sonic games is top notch.
