I suck dick at Blue Sphere

it alrights

This.

Blue Sphere is the worst part

How anyone thinks it's good is beyond me

I want more UFO stages, just for fun.

Tip for blue sphere: You can jump infinitely but only turn at the blue sphere. Orange spheres are your worst enemy and if you want perfect, go for Ringable spheres first.

To be frank, it's a lot easier since they ported a majority of the blue sphere stages from the originals.

they sure are, but fuck me the special stage rings are so hard to find

in s3&k you couldn't move without touching 2 of them per act now i struggle to find one every 3 stages

>The boss of Chemical Plant

Thank god it was set to easy difficulty.

Looks more like Sonic R

We're not plebs like you that's why we like it.

But did you play it. You repeat laps like in NiGHTS

Is this some shitty eceleb meme?

I cant enjoy the game because my autism dictates that I must get ALL the emeralds as soon as possible, so every time I fail a special stage I quit the game to try again. Because of that I fought the Studiopolis Heavy 4 times.
Currently on Flying Battery act 1 on the 6th emerald.

>the special stage rings are so hard to find
They literally went TOO FAR with the size of the zones

probably

I love everything that involves Sonic running forwards. Its faaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssst

2d Sonic is more Pinball desu

You repeat laps in Sonic R too(duh it's a racing game)

No I didn't because Sega are cunts and delayed the PC version and still no fucking torrent
Just fuck my shit up

How the hell do you set up multiplayer with just 1 set of joycon?

So is it me or does the game's difficulty border on autistic fan game territory? I like it so far but goddamn so many parts of it just feel like shit. Stage layouts are all over the place, it's almost like a bad version of Sonic CD at times. Why is the game so difficult? Glitches aren't the only thing wrong with this game. Anyone else notice this?

you buy a ps4 with two controllers and sonic mania

Puyu Puyo was a mistake

I think I've failed the fourth one ten times now.

these I'm good at though

...

i think you're just absolutely godawful at the game friend

take that back

I thought that, but I'm not so sure. It's reminding me of rom hacks like Sonic Megamix. A good romhack, but the stage layouts can get retarded.

You're just shit. The game definitely is harder than 3&K but that one was piss-easy.

I keep hearing about people bitching about the difficulty and game overs when here I am at the final stretch with 30 lives.

I literally have like 10 lives on my first playthrough and probably have died like 3 times and I'm like 2/3s through the game

I haven't played a 2D Sonic in over a decade and I finished the game with 26 lives.

I'm slowly getting better.

Can someone help me with the Press Garden time attack? This is the best I can possibly get. At the moment, I'm 2nd on the leaderboard. The guy in 1st has me beat by 9secs. Am I missing some super secret path?

>so NiGHTS

It's literally nothing like NiGHTS

I can't control sonic here. Also it may be my TV but I have some input lag.

here is a hilarious live reaction from a streamer for that part

youtu.be/JkLfzkHRMXk?t=1100

I marathoned the original games last week and it's pretty noticable that Mania is a lot more difficult. Anybody saying otherwise is a goddamn liar.

>Get wombo'd by spike-lid kills where grace periods won't save you, you die mid-fall
>Get stuck juggling getting out of the oil, not getting trapped under platforms, avoiding bullets and being in a ball when touching Eggtopus
>Oh fuck game over
>Act 1 with 3 lives

Oil Ocean is exceptionally, ridiculously hostile compared to the rest of the game.

Sonic Team on suicide watch.
How can they even compete with Sonic Forces?

It's more like Knuckles Chaotix in that respect. Same with the "using rings as time" mechanic.

This is fucking great. Do any other bosses live up to this? I haven't played the game yet, and I'm really excited to, but I can't until Thursday. Does the game live up to the hype overall?

well ask the dude in first

git gud

oh good. I thought I was just disgustingly rusty at sonic or something since I ate so much shit at Flying Battery, Oil Ocean and the Titanic Monarch.

Couldn't make it too far into that video. Jesus what an obnoxious person.

It's actually really fucking funny how Sonic Team have been completely BTFO by a random gaijin fan game hyper autist

Blue sphere comes easy to me. This UFO shit is bananas

So is it safe to say we're probably getting a Mania 2 at some point?

Oil Ocean didn't stand out to me difficulty-wide other than the boss. In fact the whole time I was thinking about how much smoother things were going since those seahorse badniks don't immediately attack anymore.

ignore the sony niggeryou set up controllers from the dashboard on the switch.

not the pieceofshitstation

use the drop dash

I honestly found Hydrocity to be the hardest. This particular incarnation was pretty balls to walls difficult. Oil Ocean never gave me trouble, save for the bosses.

I replayed most of S2 earlier today and Mania is pretty much at the exact same level of difficulty, maybe the bosses are a bit harder (or more interesting, at least)

Who would have thought the fans of Sonic would want a game that plays like the original?

I dunno it feels like NiGHTS. The way you collect orbs and also have a feeling risk/reward by collectings ring for time and ceratin routes slowing you down and stuff.

Amazingly yes, people are generally saying it's on a similar level of quality to the originals, though not necessarily the best one

am I going crazy someone has to have the same opinion

It just shows you no matter how good you think you are there is someone better

Also, the sonic team was out of touch with their source material, people don't want sonic 06 they want this

UFO is garbage
Fucking horrible hit detection

What does that stage even do for you? You obviously don't get Chaos Emeralds or powerups, so what does it do?

in a way they already admitted defeat letting the game happen.

Iizuka is the Vice President of Product Development and Creative Services huh? according to the credits

thats a mothful

I was setting up a four link combo when the boss suddenly died thanks to the two link combo I scrapped together right at the beginning.

I don't even play puyo games.

I'm infinitely better at blue sphere than at the ufo thing.

In Mania it seems to unlock moves like Insta-Shield, Super Peel-out and some modes

fucking hell, lads

Mania is the Force Awakens of Sonic games. It's so flaccid and relies too much on nostalgia-pander to actually be considered intellectually stimulating.

stimulate my blue sonic balls

It's safe to say SoJ will react to any success with jealousy and contempt, downplaying it with a "that's nice" while going all in on Forces marketing. Their last input on Mania was effectively "oh right, that, guess we'll see how it does lol." We'll get Forces 2 before Mania 2.

(You)

>the cause of all my deaths have been mostly being crushed
I hope I'm not the only one.

NOT TOO FAR

Please tell me there's an unlockable Puyo Puyo mode.

There is indeed

Well Japan has no say in Sonic, because Iizuka is the US. In Famitsu he said that he was involved in the Level Designs every step.

More Mania will happen

yeah, there is. just get enough blue sphere medals

yes

I managed to die on Mirage Saloon 1 by jumping off the plane while the train was going by. Tails just didn't follow me and I fell off the screen.

>here is a hilarious live reaction from a streamer for that part
I wish you would develop a sudden nut allergy while deepthroating a peanut coated cock.

They thought of EVERYTHING

Well at least it doesn't have Snape/Voldemort in it

...

Is there Super Tails too?

>MFW I own PC+3DS+Vita+WiiU
First time this combo has failed me like this.

I love the Sega 3D Classics so I would actually adore a 3DS port of Mania but it'd never happen.

I suck at this, stuck on the 5th chaos emerald damn thing is way too far ahead

Blue Sphere is fun. Although Mania has it pop up way too frequently.

Nah he gets to be Titan Tails

The secret final boss you get to play Titan Tails for is Ken Penders.

UFO is the most artificially difficult special stage yet
Prove me wrong.

Knew it.

Thank you Ken Penders.

I bet he's fuming at the positive reaction to mania while 3d sonic is well known as being complete shit. fuck him

Are the Act 1 of every old zone exactly the same as the original? I only played the first two zones before I had to put it down, but Act 1 both times were "I've already played this level". If every Act 1 is like this for all 8, that's 1/3rd of the game (which is already smaller than S3&K) I've already played, which is bad

>that obnoxious whiny voice while failing a simple puzzle game
>hilarious
Jump off a cliff.

No.

Sonic 2 special stages outright require trial and error and punish you heavily for not going into the damn options beforehand and getting rid of tails.

THE EMERALD LEVELS ARE TOO FUCKING HARD, IT'S NOT FUCKING FAIR

>Half pipes have a ton of janky ass turns that don't let you see upcoming rings until it's too late.

UFO requires trial and error for the camoflage bumpers, try again.

>Aw shit fucking blue spheres I was pretty good at this in S&K3
>Suddenly hit a dead end and fucked up like several times now
My skills. They're fading.

Hydrocity act 2 remix is every bit as underwhelming as Flying Battery act 1 remix

Sasuga Tee Lopes
Should have brought somebody else to handle the non-CD remixes tbqh

Reminder that Sonic Mania is controlled opposition.

>level transitions get autistically corrected and perfected in Sonic 3 complete
>level transitions are a jumbled mess in Sonic Mania

WHY

CD were the worst. Terrible depth pereception

does this game have built in codes like the old ones? if not it failed
