Conseguiram dar uma revitalizada legal na fórmula do Sonic 2D, numa época que a franquia estava se reinventando (e a SEGA quase falindo no caso).
Não é aquele jogo que o Sonic vai correr que nem doido, se aproxima mais do primeiro jogo inclusive, porém ele tem seus momentos.
Pontos para os gráficos que não envelheceram nada, e tristezas pela Angel Island Zone que é um saco.

Actually a pretty solid 2D Sonic game. Not as good as the classics but I still dig it.

The introduction of my favorite 2D Sonic games. Excellent gameplay and spritework, simplicity itself. It's got all you want from Sonic. Including unfair death pits. A lot of those actually. Maybe way too much. Okay it has some issues.

Neat little sonic game, but has a few things that hold it back from being up there with the classics for me.

The main issue I have with this game is that you feel quite sluggish to control, with jumps feeling very stiff and weird to get used to alongside an odd momentum gain that never felt that satisfying to me. The other issue is that the zones in this games latter half really like to throw a bunch of bottomless pits that kinda come out of nowhere to you so a lot of annoying deaths will occur (or maybe I'm just bad idk).

The game does make up for these annoyances however with a vibrant art direction and very expressive animation; the advance games have my favourite look from any 2D sonic game and I really hope the trilogy get a proper remaster one day. Each zone has a really nice setting and look to it that makes going through them enjoyable. Music is neat. Length is short enough to blast through in a comfy evening. Excited to see if they refine any of my issues in the second game.

Def play if you like 2D sonic.
