Sonic 3 theory: original ending?

Sonic 3 left us with many questions regarding the future of the series. And some of the behind the scenes information we've gotten since then might give us a few answers.

Back on January 12th of last year, there was a MASSIVE leak with storyboards from both the Knuckles show and Sonic 3. The latter depicted Robotnik and Shadow's sacrifice and it is very....different from what we got.

Just like in the movie, Robotnik decides to sacrifice himself, but then sees time reversing around him. This version is more open-ended regarding the doctor's fate, leaving his story on a more ominous note.

This leak (along with the Terminator reference in the post-credits) led to the popular theory that Robotnik was sent into the future. But new concept art gave us THIS:

Robotnik, dressed in full emperor attire, standing in front of a post-apocalyptic city with Metal Sonic by his side. You can even see Super Sonic's quill on his staff, likely what he used to make this bad future happen.

This is very different from the post-credits scene we got, but it brings credence to the theory that Robotnik survived thanks to time travel and built Metal. Then there's THIS:

Amy Rose saving Sonic, not too different from the final version. Instead of Metal, there's a giant robot with one red eye like the Egg Drones (and the Death Egg Robots from Sonic Forces). But look at the background! The same red skies and destroyed buildings as the previous image.

SO WHAT IF, the original plan was for Sonic 3 to end on a cliffhanger where Sonic returns to Earth, only to learn that Robotnik used time travel to rewrite history? He would then be saved by Amy, the hero of this new timeline.

Obviously these are just concepts. A lot has changed since they were made and a lot more will change once Sonic 4 enters pre-production on February. But this could give us an idea of what we could expect.

Btw the best design of all time was Fleetway's version of Amy rose where she was a butchy British dyke with a crossbow.

Absolutely and utterly fucking peak.

Side doodle I did while @shoogles Shorty design (on the left) was staring at me while looking at the Tekno reference

Shadow and Commander Tower's relationship is so funny. They tried to kill each other. One invited the other to meet their grandchild. They are coworkers. They are enemies. They relate to each other more than anyone. They don't talk. They have known each other since they were kids. They are a teenager and an old man. They have the same sister.
