ahhhhhhhhh love to play sonic the hedgehog for sega genesis, the game all about going as fast as possible all the time!! *hits a spring that was intentionally placed to slow you down* *hits a wall that was intentionally placed to slow you down* *encounters a puzzle that was intentionally placed to slow you down* *enters a water level that was intentionally placed to slow you down*
sonic mania take. i'm sure you can guess what i think of it. minor spoilers maybe
i bought sonic mania recently because i've heard so many good things about it and i played a bit
it's... better than the genesis games, slightly. but it's still a sonic game. they thankfully cut out the shitty puzzle sections and underwater bits (okay there was one underwater bit but it was short) that dragged down the genesis games so much, but for some reason they decided to implement the godawful special stages
i stopped playing at flying battery zone because that was clearly where they gave up on the "making a platformer game about going as fast as possible is a good idea" thing and just decided to make it a dull, mediocre platformer
the mean bean machine bit was good though. i liked that. and the aesthetics and music and presentation all kicked ass. but the gameplay itself... bleh

@lynnesbian I feel you on this. The Mean Bean Machine minigame was... pretty rad, and a nice surprise, and made me realise how much I goddamn love Puyo Puyo.
But wow.
just... wow.
I mean it's a great sonic game, but... it's also a huge wakeup call that ... even the original Sonic games are... not... great.

@lynnesbian @Nine they did a full game of Mean Bean Machine and we used to have it on an emulator it’s so good!

@softmetals @lynnesbian I never got it because I kinda... didn't like the AoStH stylings they used, but in hindsight I probably should have because it's just a reskinned Puyo Puyo and that game is rad as hell.
