Considering this is a fan mod using what I believe to be the worst Sonic game as the template, this is surprisingly really well made! It's not perfect due to some of the issues that come along with Forces, but unlike it's source material, it's actually fun to play. There's a few bugs I had and I feel like some of the levels don't have visual clarity since there were some parts where I died and felt like I couldn't react well to some of the scenarios well. This is strengthened by the fact that some parts of certain levels require the Boost but they don't give many Wisp Capsules to allow for Boosting, which I thought was strange. Even so, that's the worst I can say for this mod. Everything else excels pretty well, from the fun levels with lots of branching paths for replayability, difficult but satisfying to earn S-ranks, amazing OST (which is worth mentioning as A) This is a fan project and B) Forces has one of the worst OST's in the series), and the decently lengthy levels (good because most Forces levels end before they can do anything good). Also I'm so glad Classic Sonic isn't in the game. It wouldn't make sense with the story but I found Classic Sonic to be the worst of the three and considering they don't change how Modern Sonic and the Avatar control, this is a really good decision as Classic Sonic doesn't even control properly. Overall, really solid mod and exceeded my expectations, though there are a few issues I'd like to see improved on, whether or not they release a patch or release a future project (though if they don't, that's totally fine because this is honestly really impressive in itself).
