Sega Announces new 2D Sonic title

Rather than keep switching styles or transplanting the characters into new settings, they should focus on making a game that gives you that same childish warm fuzzy GLEE that the old games did. And for that they need to be simple and enjoyable. You have a clear goal, you have a clear method, you go and save the world. That's it.

It was a formula that worked and it never needed to be fucked with. Adding new characters or new gimmicks or new settings is just polishing a turd, basically.

okay! :9

I think what they need to do is to make the levels and the game feel like the old games, but with the addition of the new graphics technology to make it look as amazing compared to other games of nowadays as it was back then. Sonic's world was surreal, a tad inspired by art (see Sonic 1's Special Stage, Knuckles' Chaotix's Botanic Base) and very colorful. Not to mention level design, that should incentivate exploration and to know when to run fast and when to be careful. Sonic 3 and Sonic CD's level designs are the best. Sonic 3 for having more than just one ambient on a single zone or act, combined with an explorative level design that contributes to that feel, and Sonic CD for its creative and different level designs than the other games that shaped the whole level. You can tell which level it is in Sonic CD by just saying how the level design is like, and not specifying any platform gimmick element or anything. (like Chemical Plant's tubes, Angel Island's vines and waterfall disappearing platforms, etc).

THEN after that and the gameplay we should worry about characters.
