A Sonic game that was made accessible via a QR code from a McDonald’s Happy Meal. It was made to promote the second Sonic the Hedgehog film, so features the Sonic design from the film.

Sonic runs forward on his own and when he approaches a junction, you press left or right to take that corner. The aim is to collect rings, emeralds and boosts. It feels very much like a modern version of the LCD Sonic games that McDonald’s used to give out in Happy Meals due to the simplicity of it. Even if you do absolutely nothing, you’ll still get a good score.

One bonus feature is that you can use your camera and have it be the background of the stage.

I thought I understood the standards and means to create games and thought we were reaching the apex of how good games could be inside the medium in terms of technical limitation and creativity.... then I played "Mcdonalds Sonic The Hedgehog 2" on google chrome on my browser and realised I knew... NOTHING about the medium this game is enlightenment and I can't go back to playing any other game after this.....

Funny ha ha tee-hee game that seemingly exists for everyone on Backloggd to get their one good joke in on, and that's apparently all the McDonald's corporation puts out. Slop for your slop hole. Well guess what, fuckers, i'm the fattest hog in town

anyway i don't think i loaded the right browser game because my PC is currently locked out and screaming at me to send Ronald McDonald bitcoins to access my files

I always knew people gave Sonic 2 way too much credit, but wow it's even worse than I remembered! Why are the buttons here so big that I can't press either when the game prompts me to do so? Why is the music soundin like generic mall pop with weak riffs? Is my new 1440p monitor so powerful that edges are disappearing as I move along or is Sonic's speed over-tuned to the masses? What were they thinking?!

I don't know this existed, but it being solely half stars is really funny.
