I feel like I see people either in love with this game or think it's mid. Personally, I'm more of the mindset that its mid,
I feel like the level design is very restrictive and Tbh, and I'm still playing through it, but it feels like a complete chore at times, especially with the boss fights and I'm not having a lot of fun with most levels. Sonic and blaze’s control is fast and it’s amazing but it feels kind of out of place. there are so many pitfalls you can accidentally fall into and annoying enemy placements that can screw you over because of enemy stun leading you into a pitfall. Special stages are pretty good though I can see why people really like them. I also really like the ranking system it’s a bitch and that’s how I like my sonic ranking systems.
Maybe I’ll come around to this game when I replay the levels trying to get A ranks.
