running at high speeds, then shot in the face.

when i reviewed the fan game Bionic the Hedgehog, i said that if the game was a platformer, it would be huge disappointment. well...THIS is the game it would have been. the fact that someone made a Genesis-style Sonic game is pretty sweet, but because of all of the flaws, it fails so horribly bad. for one, there is no music.none. I wouldn't care that much, but they stated there was some in the game, which makes me wonder whether something got messed up pre-upload or if they lied. there are only sound effects, though one of them is used wrong, but I'll let you guys find that one out yourselves. also, it's designed as a pure platformer, so no loops or turnpipes, unfortunately,but that's not a big deal.. the one negative that absolutely kills this game, however, is the fact that THE RINGS DO NOT WORK.at least in Sonic for Game Gear they blocked you from damage before losing them all. this game, you can have 80 rings, but if you run into someone JUST ONCE, you die. ths may not sound that bad(after all, the final levels of the original Sonic games gave you no rings), but when you get to the second area, you will NOT be able to get past the first part. I'm totally serious. but it gets worse-when I was trying to figure out how to get past that part, I accidentally hit SHIFT, and you know what happened? I skipped to the next stage. It made me wonder what the hell was the point of striving through levels when you can Just hit SHIFT until you reach a boss(one of the few good things about this game.) and this wasn't an accidental thing,no. it was like as if the creators knew they messed up, and put this for people just to say,"you can't beat this level, huh? well why don't we put this button so that you don't have to play through the poorly designed parts of this game!" as a pls, it makes speed runs easier. but the worse thing is all tese glowing reviews around mine-were we playing the same game? was ythere less problems when they played it, or something? I mean, I hate to sound so cruel-I really do- but they could have done so much better. for sonic fans, avoid this and go play the silver the hedgehog game instead. 3.5/10
