So, Sega took a known romhacker, gave him a budget and said "work your magic". This is what we get. Sega, PLEASE do this more often.

@OutlawMantis 7 лет назад

The guy was known for fan games and custom game engines. Regardless, I agree, they should have done this a long time ago. I'm just tired of the trite games Sega keeps pumping out. Hopefully Sonic Mania will live up to its expectations and gets a sequel. It's all I need really.

@enriquepinero707 7 лет назад

They should do the same for Streets of Rage and release Streets of Rage Remake.

@MiaowGaiGar 7 лет назад

Now if only Nintendo could figure the same thing out.

@doribunbun 7 лет назад

Bruno Travassos who was the rom hacker again?

@MiaowGaiGar 7 лет назад

It wasn't a romhacker; it was Christian Whitehead -- who's credited in this, by the way -- a fangame creator, who also created a custom engine running what would become the commercial re-release of Sonic CD. I believe he was also the guy that made that dig at Sega in the form of single-handedly developing a GBA ROM for the first level of Sonic 1, in response to Sega's own atrocious port of Sonic 1 to that system, to prove that it didn't have to suck. He put Tails and Knuckles in for good measure. His signature of adding little touches like that would show up in his later official ports.

@Kiruklee 7 лет назад

They just took the "Chemical" theming idea and RAN with it! All the additions just FIT so seamlessly, adding something new without being excessive or misplaced!

@linkthepringlesman3951 7 лет назад

Wait. Did Tails just air lift Sonic... in single player? Best Sonic game.

@mvnkycheez 7 лет назад

Single Player features the ability to have someone play as tails and fly like in sonic 3

@Krabs_Is_A 7 лет назад

munky cheez In mania you can make tails carry you by pressing up and jump. without player 2

@dse763 7 лет назад

It comes from Sonic 1 and 2 remaster on smartphones.

@mvnkycheez 7 лет назад

Holy shit that's awesome, I think that's in the Christian whitehead version of sonic 2

@danielmartin2116 7 лет назад

DSE 76 I had no idea you could do that on mobile. Thank you, you kind soul

@MooCartoon 7 лет назад

This is the Sonic game I want.

@ajayrious 7 лет назад

Yeah hopefully it will do well enough to convince Sega to continue making these types of Sonic games instead of the "modern" ones.

@nilesdobbs4215 7 лет назад

You don't like Forces?

@ranchdressing 7 лет назад

Not likely. But there might be more classic games, for sure.

@aleksandarsherbula2081 7 лет назад

They are making what sells, so if everything goes well with this game (which is a strong possibility imo), then you better believe they will make something like this again.

@MooCartoon 7 лет назад

I want that too! ....but not as much as I want Mania. :P

@mryellowpikmin 7 лет назад

YO this music rocks!! this remix is so gooood

@whatanethan2858 7 лет назад

OH YYEEAAHH!

@LyokoGem 7 лет назад

Marble Quiñones Better than both Generations remixes, imo.

@verysmolgunnernozomi6082 7 лет назад

So true.

@mryellowpikmin 7 лет назад

Lyoko Gem i agree

@RedheadButNotReally 7 лет назад

Marble Quiñones Just so you guys are aware, RU-vid user B0M made a super clean rip of that song, among others. ^_^

The homage is so real. HE STILL RUNS FASTER THAN THE SCREEN! It's the little things.

@FunkyFranky80 7 лет назад

What should i say about this...it's my most anticipated game EVER. Welcome back in business Sonic. Good to see you strong again like in the Mega Drive/Genesis days :D

@elijahtoombs3524 7 лет назад

FunkyFranky80 I prefer modern

@elijahtoombs3524 7 лет назад

UtherSwagBringer but they are bringing this boost back in forces

@LeopoldLitchenstein 7 лет назад

UtherSwagBringer I love the Boost gameplay, but it does have issues, like the fact that Unleashed and Generations both end up being very focused on holding a button with little player input unless a section requires you to slow down and platform. Forces is more like Colors in that regard as it seems to have more of a focus on platforming than it does Boosting

@EthanBradburyVlogs 7 лет назад

FunkyFranky80 Most anticipated ever? hahahaha

@fullsdready 7 лет назад

I'm surprised that with all those nods to Sonic CD (even in the music), we wouldn't get any actual level from it.

@SimonZellox 7 лет назад

Foulaisedé Rédi I already saw stardust speedway in one of the trailers.

@Dresfvae 7 лет назад

Foulaisedé Rédi Stardust Speedway is confirmed. In the animation trailer, it showed Knuckles fighting a giant Snake in Stardust Speedway (Past)

@d3fod 7 лет назад

1:50 that a dirty placement for the badnick

@misledchip 7 лет назад

to be fair it's not half as bad as some of the placement in zones like metropolis zone

@ultimatecosmic6053 7 лет назад

d3fod of course it was a reference to metropolis zone

@Anthony16Bit 7 лет назад

Oh god, I can hear the scattered rings

Chemical plant zone: Home of dirty badniks and sick tunes

@Mikeywf 7 лет назад

This remix is so good. The music and the level its self too. I wish generations did like this game and gave us new takes on old levels not just going through the same level in 2d and 3d. I'm so excited for Mania it is going to be amazing

@Jestahz 7 лет назад

actual chemicals in chemical plant? GENIUS!

@The94Venom 7 лет назад

Let me guess : you cut off right at the time you were getting to the boss. Happens every time, goddamnit

@maximmikheev8172 7 лет назад

hop193 or SEGA just doesn't want to show spoilers.

@otakusofthenight6810 7 лет назад

It would be so cool if you do something battle Robotnik in a round of Mean Bean Machine for a boss battle

@maximmikheev8172 7 лет назад

hop193 and they did it again. They just ended the video near to the boss place.

@pearsareawful9006 7 лет назад

Максим Михеев no they didn't there is more to the stage, you can see this in a interview with one of the sonic mania devs, really the person here had a certain amount of time to play, and they wasted it by checking every corner that was off screen

@SurfingKyogreNL 6 лет назад

Otakus Of The Night HOLY SHIT! ARE YOU FROM THE FUTURE!

@theamazingaustin3360 7 лет назад

I love the remixed stages and am so pumped for them but, I hope the new stages are gonna be just as memorable.

@dreamcastdazia4753 7 лет назад

AA J I think your wish is granted. I mean look at Studiopolis and Mirage Saloon zone :')

@Jakeneutron 7 лет назад

So does each act usually have an alternative version of the track? Cool!!!

@ranchdressing 7 лет назад

Yep...I am officially in love with this freaking zone.

@sunnyta1990 7 лет назад

i've never really been into classic sonic, but i have to say this game looks fucking amazing. the taxman is great at coming up with awesome level design, gimmicks and mechanics. even better than sonic team themselves. and THAT SOUNDTRACK.

@BaronOfAnarchy 7 лет назад

This is the best Act 2 music version of Chemical Plant I've ever heard.

@spacethegamer6426 7 лет назад

Sooo we see spot where the Special Stage Ring is supposed to be, but when are gonna see the special stages themselves?!?!?!

@ultimatecosmic6053 7 лет назад

SpaceTheGamer i guess until the game releases

@mariamn1903 7 лет назад

SpaceTheGamer , in one of the streams with Aaron Webber, aka ruby eclipse, he said that they are mostly showing old returning stages and keeping the new stages and other new content secret until much later. later most likely being when the game releases.

@jf820 7 лет назад

Act 2 is so beautiful. It's the Remix. I can't wait 2 months anymore

@playoffpj515 7 лет назад

Who needs Sonic Team when you can just get Daddy Whitehead to make all your Sonic games for you?

@Alienrun 7 лет назад

^ Based comment right here!

@phatoume227 7 лет назад

this is how you revive a dead horse and bring magic back. This is how you revive an 80's to 90's childhood.

@crystallinegazer 7 лет назад

0:51 Angel Island zone badnik! What are you doing here?

@mvnkycheez 7 лет назад

Mario Playthroughs Fits right in though right?? They also have the bats from Marble zone in green hill act 2 caves

@crystallinegazer 7 лет назад

Good point. Maybe Marble and Angel Island are returning in Sonic Mania?

@PharaohTutFazbear 7 лет назад

Mario Playthroughs No. if anything, having nods to past levels means those levels WON'T return to the game

@crystallinegazer 7 лет назад

Well, It was leaked that Angel Island might return. Same with Palmtree Panic

@PharaohTutFazbear 7 лет назад

Mario Playthroughs You DO know that wasn't a leak right? It was literally just the Japanese website for the game reviewing the classics. (You'd also know this if you translated the website)

@SuperLink9 7 лет назад

This stage looks absolutely incredible.. one of the best stage designs I've ever seen in a 2D Sonic maybe

@bandicootsauce4569 7 лет назад

Something about this game reminds me of those old toy sets where you build a Rube Goldberg contraption, drop a marble in and watch it roll all the way down through a series of plastic pipes. Seriously, I'm not the only one seeing this, right?

@Juniorgrava_ 7 лет назад

OMFG THIS REMIX IS SO GOOD AND I CAN DANCE IT HERE!! 😎

@MeguhCorey 7 лет назад

This is the Classic Sonic I'm talking about. It's about time.

@keeganandersson4281 7 лет назад

Holy infinite pathways 😱

@mvnkycheez 7 лет назад

Keegan Andersson This act looks HUGE

@Alienrun 7 лет назад

Reminds me of that old Sonic 2 hack called "Sonic Boom"...look it up its awesome!

@chiisuchi1102 7 лет назад

theres so much to do its overwhelming. i need it

@keeganandersson4281 7 лет назад

munky cheez Exactly. It's just like metropolis zone in that sense

@sonicmastersword8080 7 лет назад

munky cheez It might even be larger than the largest level in 2D Sonic, Lava Reef Act 1

@imveryangryitsnotbutter 7 лет назад

I like the placement of the invincibility box at 2:18. I can almost hear the level design itself speaking to the player. "Oh for the love of... you went _left?_ Seriously, we even put a steep downward slope to guide you to the right and everything! Okay, okay, you're obviously not very experienced with these kinds of games. Tell you what, since you obviously need the help, we'll give you a mercy item. Now head back to the right, and try to stay focused, okay?"

@Jesturd63 7 лет назад

Anyone else notice how HUGE this level is for a classic sonic level? It got 4 and a half minutes in and the level still wasn't complete, but it seems like the level is paced so well and flows so smoothly I didn't even notice. Then again, that remix of Chemical Plant is distractingly awesome.

@BuzzsawtheHedgehog 7 лет назад

So far, so good. I know some people don't like the fact that Sonic Mania are using levels from past 2D Sonic games, but hey, the likes of Green Hill and Chemical Plant look absolutely beautiful. Mania has a LOT of potential to be a winner for the Sonic franchise this year.

@Mattdoggydogg9909 7 лет назад

I have faith that this will be one of the best sonic games ever made.Sonic 3&Knuckles is my all time favorite.I'm so pumped for this game and can't wait to finally get to be able to play what looks to be a masterpiece.

@paulolameiras861 7 лет назад

This will be an amazing nostalgia trip!

@TheRealXenosapien 7 лет назад

I love how these remixes of OG tracks(and the other original tracks they've revealed) have a Sonic CD vibe to them. SCD is a game I haven't played as much as 1-3&K but the soundtrack was awesome to say the least.

@trevormeikle968 7 лет назад

Digging this new version of the Chemical Plant music and also glad that it's confirmed that the zone acts will have different variations of the same song like in Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

@asrog6880 7 лет назад

Amazing. They even kept the fact that, at moments, Sonic go faster than the screen.

@RM2011ish 7 лет назад

Sonic Mania NEEDS to be a series. Not a one shot deal. Whitehead is a miracle worker.

@ZeitGeist_TV 7 лет назад

*THIS and DBZ FIGHTER* Really surprised me this E3 the *Nostalgia nearly had me in tears.*

@cjflash99 Год назад

For some reason, the gel’s in this zone give of a slight portal 2 vibe, I love it!

@JBJones66 7 лет назад

This is everything.

@oNifty 7 лет назад

Love how Sonic has a "Changed up Mighty sprite" in some parts. I like it;)

@moltimor4370 7 лет назад

Sega is the best company for making this possible

@glenwhitt1163 7 лет назад

I love how they added sprites and other elements from S3 into this stage.

@pigjuice6499 7 лет назад

From what I'm looking at this could look like the best sonic game ever. The saddest thing though is Sega didn't make this. They're only funding and publishing it. :/

@vGhost01 7 лет назад

SuperGalaxyMedia Yeah, it's being made by even BETTER developers

@Dre_aka_sleepysandman 7 лет назад

SuperGalaxyMedia well look at it like this. If this is very successful. I'm sure they would let them make another.

@elijahtoombs3524 7 лет назад

SuperGalaxyMedia Sega doesn't make the games, sonic team does.

@elijahtoombs3524 7 лет назад

ViltzuGhost watch as sonic forces will be extraordinary.

@dreamcastdazia4753 7 лет назад

Elijah Toombs Yeah. Both will

@voidflakes 7 лет назад

Absolutely brilliant to hear a Sonic CD-inspired remix of the Chemical Plant music :) Glad to see so much S:CD influence in Sonic Mania, it was a fantastic game. And yes, the DNA bubble is AWESOME!!!

@LightspeedGaming 7 лет назад

Wacky Workbench and Metallic Madness hints in the song, omg I love it

@James179 7 лет назад

and they appear in the level design, the bouncy floors from wacky workbench and the multi path pipes from metallic madness

@slimmy478-6 7 лет назад

Classic sonic is back in business!!

@Enclavefakesoldier 7 лет назад

with level design and music like this, sonic mania is the beginning of a renaissance or renaissonic if will.

@eppskevin 7 лет назад

Sonic Mania is the reason why I decided to keep up with E3 this year..

@NoName-mb7ng 7 лет назад

I am so stoned and so hyped for this

@Gamesmarts194 7 лет назад

Not even a minute into the level and I'm already loving this.

@SolidSonicTH 7 лет назад

I like the helix lifts, even though they're a bit strange (not sure how they fit in with the theme of the level but they look neat). Also it looks like Tails retained his controls from the mobile versions of Sonic 1 (where you can still manipulate Tails even in solo by holding up and jumping).

@DylanDude 7 лет назад

0:20 Techno Hill Zone? Is that you?

@mvnkycheez 7 лет назад

>srb2 a man of taste I see

@dse763 7 лет назад

The bouncy liquids are a bit different between Mania and SRB2 : In Mania, the color of the liquid affects on how high you will be thrown. Just hit and envoy your not quite flight. In SRB2, you sink in the liquid and make surface before being thrown in the air. The height you reach depends on how deep you plunge into the liquid. Oh, after a while you can walk on the liquid (not as fast as solid ground).

@DylanDude 7 лет назад

+DSE 76 Fair enough.

@mvnkycheez 7 лет назад

I remember when the liquid was just Chemical plant act 1 water and it was basically a death trap

@ProfessionalismTrash 7 лет назад

lmao I remember playing Srb2 a looooooonnngggg Time ago... Like in 2012 or something

@maximianoezequielmaciel6200 7 лет назад

The game isn't even released yet and i already want a sequel...Please Sonic Mania 2 ♥

@finnmarr-heenan2397 7 лет назад

Sonic hysteria

@sonicmastersword8080 7 лет назад

This genuinely looks like one of those games that people will play years later and still discover new things about it.

@BKSF1 7 лет назад

game designers: the objective in sonic is to go fast. speed is really the name of the game here polygon: hold my drink *painstakingly takes about 30 seconds to grap a 1up they don't need*

@NoahNCopeland 7 лет назад

This kind of interweaving level design isn't not easy to make or pull off!

@dcdids2011 7 лет назад

And thats what many are loving about this game: it takes what worked from the classics and cranks it up to new levels of creativity and imagination. Sega knew that hiring high qualified fans to do a game like this was a smart move and its paying off BIG TIME.

@jasonharris3502 7 лет назад

Dig them Krazy Khemicals! HOW DO THEY DO IT!? They took one of the most memorable Zones from Sonic 2 and not only give it the Sonic 3 treatment but add a little pinch of Sonic CD as well as mix in a few new chemicals of their own?

@MatthewRhodes 7 лет назад

finally! A Sonic game!

@Vintagesonic1 7 лет назад

Can I be the first to say the new Chemical Plant looks and great and that outro is amazing!

@chickbowdrie4750 4 года назад

Best Act 2 remix

@Lakitu1134 7 лет назад

I swear, in earlier builds, didn't Tails have a different animation for when carrying Sonic through the air? I remember him straining himself and even sweating.

@BubblegumLefty 7 лет назад

Yes, I guess you just need to hold Sonic for a certain amount of time before that animation pops up. Or maybe they have an option of turning it on or off. Dunno. 😃 We'll see when the game releases. 😊

@bbbazzinga 7 лет назад

Looks like a ton of classic good old Sonic fun.

@Mafr0 7 лет назад

It's mind blowing to see such a perfect expansion of Sonic 2! Can't wait to play this

@starphaser 7 лет назад

Woah! Sprawling! This game is gonna be AWESOME.

@amarait2 7 лет назад

i hope sonic mania will be the game everyone expected to be, sega did the right thing noticing a romhackers hard work and hiring him.

@onihaiena6152 7 лет назад

Things I love about this New level design Awesome remix The fact I can watch this in 60fps

@marianokaz1503 7 лет назад

Childhood Revival, that's all i can say about this masterpiece!

@emuscoot2325 7 лет назад

When that invincibility theme kicks in a raise the volume and giggle

@gundamgamer7060 7 лет назад

Man, these levels have so many oaths that you can take.

@onslaughtiscool 7 лет назад

this is the sonic game i never knew i wanted

@Kill_Binho 7 лет назад

Much more excited for this than Forces.

@wmvnotmp4 7 лет назад

they both look amazing to me. They're both gonna be my games of the year

@Tmoney-oi7uf 7 лет назад

I feel like in act 2 you infiltrate the chemical plant because of the beginning siren in the music, the bouncy liquid, and the background transitions

@SMUS16475 7 лет назад

I love what they did with Chemical Plant. Did anyone pre-purchase the game already on Steam?

@garymcewan868 7 лет назад

I bet you any money the boss was literally a few seconds away before the video ended...

@davecross3071 7 лет назад

@jettxjordan 7 лет назад

Holy fuck this music....

@djcoolvibes 7 лет назад

At 2:29 those springs... this reminds me a lot of Sonic CD, to gain speed to warp through time..!

@GoldenGrenadier 7 лет назад

the heart monitor is an excellent if out of place musical instrument.

@MiaowGaiGar 7 лет назад

This redesigned Act 2 really makes the stilted design of the mostly-the-same Act 1 stand out, doesn't it. The stage design does a much better job of leading and keeping the pace in the new Act 2.

@KenShackler 7 лет назад

I guess the fact that the Catakiller jr badnik is in this stage, pretty much confirms that Angel Island zone won't be in Sonic Mania. I'm fine with that as long as Mushroom Hill zone is included. Also the fact that the bat badnik is in Green Hill zone probably confirms that Marble zone won't be in Mania either.

@Arkonoid404 7 лет назад

This is what Wacky Workbench was trying to be.

@quesocoatl21 7 лет назад

I just realized the spring goop has the same sound effect as the floor of that Sonic CD level.

@HisDudeness1986 7 лет назад

The theme's arrangement gives me a Streets of Rage feel!

@MamboSauce 7 лет назад

Flying battery theme is virtually untouched, why did they make this one so much different than the original?

@abjgamer9946 7 лет назад

I hope they do more less remembered stages like Launch base, spring yard, and Aquatic ruin.

@James179 7 лет назад

not spring yard, anything but that!

@samuelanthonysmith 7 лет назад

Unsure about the remix track and level design here as Chemical Plant zone is my favourite sonic zone ever! Still hype for this game though.

@king_ka0s893 7 лет назад

I kinda wish Polygon wouldn't curl up when he was in a high speed area or when he was shot through boosters. It's cool to see Sonic at full speed!

@James179 7 лет назад

yeah, that top speed run animation is sick

@kingoverseas9052 7 лет назад

It looks as though you can make Tails fly and control him mid flight as player one. I hope that's the case. Such a simple yet worthy addition.

@wmvnotmp4 7 лет назад

yup. if you look up and double tap the jump button and hold it, sonic can use tails to fly without using a second player

@TheMightyYiffer 7 лет назад

Don't get me wrong, I love the new song for the invincibility, but why would I want it if it stops the pure awesomeness that is this Chemical Plant Zone remix?
