The drop dash was pretty cool to bring over, and the zooming past levels days were gone.īut man, other than that, I'll just say this - AUTOSCROLLERS. Also the bounce physics on enemies were an improvement to Generations. I still like the gameplay in SG though because zooming past the levels is fun.Īs for Forces, I'll give it the fact that they realized how overpowered the spindash is and removed the button for an instant spindash, requiring you to hold down and mash. And while the level design kind of complements this playstyle, it still took away what Classic Sonic had that was unique and major to his gameplay in the old days. Just a second of holding the button down and you're instantly at top speed and have no worries to even care about momentum. The spindash in SG disregards this because it is overpowered as hell. Best example is back in Sonic 2 Chemical Plant Zone, you had to build your momentum by spinning down the steep slopes to reach the upper path, granting a faster route and whatnot. There wasn't much because you can skip an entire level by the press of 2 buttons.ĭue to this overpowered spindash, it took away something Classic Sonic had back in the days - Momentum. The thing about Classic Sonic's gameplay in Generations, was that it was basically holding down spindash and spamming it + jump to carry yourself to the end.
