I find it strange how SEGA never rereleased, let alone even acknowledged Sonic: Dungeon Crawler for the Game Gear in any collections or retrospective media :/

One obscure little Sonic thing that always lives rent-free in the back of my head is the Bad End to 8-bit Sonic 2, where it's implied that Eggman followed through on his threat to kill Tails since Sonic didn't bring him the Chaos Emeralds. It's ambiguous, so people who just don't want to think that happened can believe that, but the music cues in the updated re-release of the game and the fact that Tails just isn't with Sonic in the Bad End (and why wouldn't he be, if he were alive?) suggest otherwise to me.

Anyway, setting aside the fact that I don't think Sonic let Eggman live for very long after that (because there are a lot of things that Sonic can forgive but killing Tails isn't one of them), I also think about how Sonic would have to live after that knowing Tails was dead, knowing it was because he failed to save him . . .

. . . but also, thinking about multiverse shenanigans, I also think about, what if that Sonic encountered canon!Tails . . . a Tails who was successfully rescued / protected by his Sonic, who got to grow up to do amazing things like save Station Square from a nuke, and protect Sonic just as many times as Sonic protected him, and create amazing inventions and clean energy that helped the planet instead of hurt it.

And of course Sonic from the 8-bit Bad End would be proud, but also he'd be hit by the fact that . . . wow. His Tails could have done all that. His Tails could have grown up to be so brilliant, so amazing, such a positive force for the world, if he hadn't been murdered when he was 4 because Sonic didn't have all the Chaos Emeralds when he went to confront Eggman that one time.

It would be hard for Sonic from the 8-bit Bad End to look at Tails for a number of reasons, not the least of which being he misses his own little brother so badly—but also, knowing all that his Tails could have accomplished if he'd lived, and knowing that he'll never ever have the chance? Yeah, that would add a whole other layer to it, too.

#sonic the hedgehog #miles tails prower #unbreakable bond #in the updated release of the game that came out for either Game Gear or Master System (can't remember which came first)#the Bad End credits has more somber music than the Good End credits #which is what implies a darker fate for Tails imo #apart from Tails just not being present in the Bad End credits #plot twist: 8bit Bad End Sonic becomes the main villain when he kidnaps the first Classic Tails he can find #& refuses to give him up for anything #including the Classic Sonic who would rly like his lil bro back thanks #sth

Rig Fixing Day 37 (Super Kinda): Frontspin

Yes, this took 2 days because I was depressed and tired. I might also be late this weekend because of travel reasons. (If you're looking on discord, please click the post to see the rest of the animations with actual characters.)

Okay, so I know we've done the Red Raw mix of this, ages ago, but we've never done the original. So let's do it!

This might be one of my favorites off the soundtrack. It's just so blissfully 90s dance flavored, so crisp and clean. I love how the piano is mixed here, the little trills and high mixed synth lines. And of course, TJ Davis sounds amazing per usual! And it even has a modulation up a step at the end of the track to cap it all off. It's so easy to dance to and just such a cool jam. I have the chiptune version I made a while ago as my new ringtone, I like it so much!

Just as a little bonus, I'll upload that one below since my Soundcloud premium expired on my chiptune account to show it off. Enjoy!

#work it out #sonic r #sonic the hedgehog #sonic #music #crying my chiptune stuff is like 8-10 years old now...#preemptive chiptune faq: no i don't use a tracker i use the magical 8bit plug in from ymck and garageband. doesnt' sound too bad though!
