Sonic Robo Blast 2

released on Aug 01, 2006

Sonic Robo Blast 2, abbreviated as SRB2, is a fan game for Windows and DOS platforms. It is a 3D platformer developed by a group called Sonic Team Junior, using a modified version of the Doom Legacy source port of Doom, to allow for such things as optional analog control and true room-over-room (something not possible in the standard Doom engine), as well as the standard gameplay elements Sonic games are known for. It has been in the works since 1998 and is currently nearing completion, though several parts of the game are still missing. Sonic Robo Blast 2 is closely inspired by the original 2D Sonic games for the Genesis and attempts to recreate a game with this style in 3D, though it also borrows elements from the current Sonic games, such as Sonic's signature Air Spin Attack. Entirely original to SRB2 is its Multiplayer mode, a variation of classic first-person shooter games with Sonic elements. Due to being built with a modified Doom Legacy engine, the game is also very easily customizable. Custom levels, characters and even source code modifications can be created with the help of external editors.

This game is fucking awesome, its really hard but fun

3d Environment Classic Sonic Game

Me when I tried to play it like a Modern Sonic game: Damn this shit mid af

Me when I tried to play it like a Classic Sonic game: Oh my god...I get it

The greatest 3D sonic game ever made.
And Sega didn't even make it.

Being dead honest, I've barely played the modern version of this so this rating isn't really much for it.
I played A Lot of this around 2006-10 tho, maybe even earlier. At least early enough that Knuckles still had the really fucked up wall climbing sprites and jumping on the roof of that house in the first level sent you to hell. Also remember Zim's house being an official mp level in it and spending a lot of time on servers running that.
Still had an insane amount of fun with all the mods and hangout servers back then tho.

A top-tier Sonic game if you can accept the very different playstyle to the norm - though an argument can be made that this is better than the official stuff - and a testament to the devs' tenacity to work on it for 25+ years. Just don't expect a great storyline, and be ready to download some mods if you want something to do after finishing the 1-2 hour story outside time trials or Emblem hunting.
