Recently the long lived franchise received a much needed boost that came in the form of Sonic Colors. Previous to this, fans had been disappointed with much of the output of Sega. Many fans have turned to posting their own Sonic games online.
One of the most popular of these games is Sonic Ultimate Flash by Dennis Gid. This game attempts to recreate the feeling of the classic 2D games, as well as some recent ones such as the Sonic Advance series, by using flash. There are things that are heavily reminiscent throughout the application, starting with the first level, Leaf Forest. The look of this level reminds you of Green Hill Zone from the first instalment featuring the blue hedgehog, a palm tree beach level that has become a staple of this franchise ever since.
These levels are generally pleasing to the eye and simple enough that the player can get used to the dynamics of the game without losing lots of lives in the process. As this is the speedy blue spiky-furred critter, the level set up of these initial stages are generally set up to exercise the speed of the main character, before the more complex platforming of later levels. Sonic Ultimate Flash is no different.
Leaf Forest is a pleasingly bright and green introduction to a suitably nostalgic game, and it is easy to explore and difficult to die, with an emphasis on playing with speed. If you are not familiar with Sega, this is a good way to become used to the game, although this particular fan project seems to be designed for those who are already fans of the old games.
This feeling continues as the levels progress, although there is a good deal of the Advance series in here, in particular, Advance 2. The music is from the classic games and the Advance series, with Leaf Forest having the recognisable music from Angel Island Zone of Sonic the Hedgehog 3. There are also the familiar sound effects that we associate with collecting and losing rings, and smashing robots.
The available characters are Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Cream with two more secret characters to be unlocked. The hedgehog still has his speed and Tails still flies, although Knuckles now, for some reason, lacks the ability to glide or climb. Cheese the Chao also does not have the skills that made Cream such an easy character to play in her debut game, but this does not stop this from being the closest thing to a real Sonic game that you can find, online.
A common trend in fan made projects of well-known franchises is the idea of putting a character from one into another. This has been done with this franchise in particular numerous times, but surely the combination that must stand out the most is that of the blue hedgehog and Super Mario Brothers. In Sonic Lost In Mario world, our blue hero is indeed, as the title says, lost in the world of Mario. Instead of animal powered robots and egg shaped scientists, he is now fighting the turtle-like koopas and the mushroom-shaped goombas. Instead of rings, he is collecting coins. The concept is simple, yet the dynamic movement of the hedgehog works surprisingly well with the precise platforming of the world of Mario.
As well as the Mario crossovers, you will find things like Sonic in Pacman or Final Fantasy, but that will generally be in looks only, with none of the associated gameplay conventions. There are, however, several good examples of Sonic games online.
