I fell into playing through Chemical Plant and Sky Sanctuary EXACTLY the way I had told myself I SHOULDN'T play Sonic, ie going slow. : P Told myself here that I was uh finding the good secret stuff and side paths to make later runs better~~but the slower I go, the clunkier the game feels--especially in the ACT 2 stages--and the less I want to keep playing. So I gotta go back to going with the flow and ripping through as fast as I can, like I did in Green Hill.
I was actually on the verge of dropping the playthrough thinking this session over afterwards; watching a full playthrough to see some neat-looking zooming through later types of stages convinced me to take another stab at it--and to avoid slowing down! Dargh c'mon self. And I kinda want to replay these two zones, go through playing as fast as I can.
The shop thing turned out less forbidding than I'd thought since it looks like I actually already had all the go fast powerups; the lives and stuff doesn't really matter I think since if you run out of lives you just restart the stage with five more lives. Weird!
But the whole game is kinda of weird like that, like they're still trying to figure out what to do with Sonic as a game. 2D or 3D? We can't decide, so here's both! Lives? Well uh yeah but okay you just continue infinitely. 'ppp'
Won't be too surprised if more skills show up in the shop eventually, hrm. Hopefully not though. : P Pick a gameplay and settle on it!
Jumping up on the zone titles in the hub world is kinda sweet.
I had the game volume too low. Range of volume in the game is kinda all over the place, which makes this a bit tricky. : P Probably best to err on slightly too loud for this type of game, though; like, Sonic kind of needs to rock.
DS4Windows did NOT end up fixing the game stopping responding to DS4 input after task-switching. : P
