... Sonic 2 who?
Good lord, this is such a good game. Which is funny, considering I absolutely hated it when I was little and super into Sonic.

"Sonic is supposed to be fast! What's up with the weird maps and this time traveling stuff?" I'll tell you what's up with 'em, 10 year old me: They're peak, that's what they are.
If you pick up Sonic CD expecting to take your time and explore stages thoroughly instead of trying to get to the goal as fast as possible, as I did in this last playthrough, you'll have a great time.

Beautiful FMV cutscenes, cool zones with tons of visual variety, my favorite special stages and favorite soundtrack; CD has it all.

I guess my only complaint is that the timer shouldn't really be there. Having a Time Limit system in a game where exploration is encouraged is very counterintuitive. That aside, absolutely goated. 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐

UPDATE 28/03: Platinum'd it. This game is so good.
