Gave up on the Golden Capital Act 2 boss fight, so really I only had like 5 levels left after that. But, I was not having a good time even from the beginning. I think the looks sold me on this game, and that's all there was to it. Just the looks. The controls weren't horrible, but it was a matter of how fun it was to play. It wasn't. I know the levels did have some branching paths, but even then it still managed to feel oddly linear for a 2D Sonic game. That and some levels lasted way longer than they needed to. Every act 1 had an extra boss, so there was a boss each level and all of those were just as bad. Especially the Golden Capitol one I gave up on that was a 5 minute autoscroller that reset to the beginning if you died. So just a mix of shit levels, shit bosses, not much feeling of accomplishment after everything lasts way longer than it should, and another problem I haven't seen many people mention, the camera being a bit too close to the screen. Idk, I think I'm just even more disappointed after expecting a 2D Sonic game to be decent. Like even my least favorites (SA2 (sorry), CD (also sorry), and Shuffle) have more redeeming factors than this. It just felt like they knew Mario Wonder was in the works before it got announced and were like "hey we can make that too". Didn't work out too well imo.
Hard af and I'll never beat it, heard 2 improves on that but it was too late.
Shame because Blinx had huge mascot potential, just needed something a bit more accessible to everyone. John Halo is fine, but he's not a cat. Just not a fan of more serious mascots like him, personally. They gotta be scrimblos like Blinx.
