What the fuck were they cooking?
No but like seriously, on a serious note.
What the actual fuck where they cooking?
This game is so atrocious. Every remotely good review is obviously single player mode which completely defeats the point. This game was obviously intended as a multiplayer experience given how it was marketed heavily as one. So my mate bought it for me - "hey, i dont mind mate, itll be fun for all of us, itll be awesome, ill be happy to".
And so with controllers in hand you set out to game on the first of its kind 4 player sonic game (although we were only 3).
And then you see it, and my heart sank a little.
"Made in Unity."
I felt like the uncanny face meme.
You start the game and the in game intro cutscene is atrocious - poorly rendered in 3d with no fucking shadows. They unironically shipped this game as a finished experience. You have to bare this in mind as your mate flies off to the right toward the end of the level, and you think, "oh wow haha we got to catch up to them, theyre blasting through!" But because they ran ahead of the group in a game where you get sent on loops and ramps out of your control they actually die and get forced to respawn with the rest of the group, who are also on a set of springs so you respawn and immediately fall to their death. I think in total over the two hours we played and managed to get halfway through the game, each of us played a collective amount of like 10 minutes each if that. We just kept putting down the controllers we were that fed up of going off screen and dying. Theres also a respawn limit. WhaT the fuck were they cooking?
But the best part is the bosses, they are so epic. They take 1 trillion hours to complete cause of cool waiting mechanics but youre not allowed to respawn so if you died, fuck you, you have to watch your mate play. And then you beat the boss and it throws you in a solo level so the rest of your friends cant do anything.
A hard 2 out of 10. I offered to do chores at his house because I felt so bad that he spent his money on this dogshit. "WOW GUYS, HE RUNS IN THIS ONE!" Except you barely even get to do that becahse youre flying off screen constantly.
EDIT: This game is a 2/10 because it might be more enjoyable if the games framerate didnt grind to a halt every 2 seconds, and the only reason its not a 1 is because for about an hour the travesty of a game is rather funny, so if it was on sale for like 3 quid ljke most sonic games inevitably do, then it woyld be worth it if only for that. But not 55 quid.
