There are two kind of players. Those who intuitively use the up and down arrows to manipulate the barrel... and those who think jumping over it is the answer. :'v
Actually playing this game after so long, I finally got to this zone... Now I feel the grief of all of you... the barrel stories were true... Ice cap zone literally "Cooled" me down after that torture...
Kevinade ikr I got the grasp of it in 30 seconds. I saw it go up and down, then remembered something similar in another 2D platformer I’d played, and did it.
Michael Jackson thought Sonic was a Thriller of a game but when he bought it he was Bad at it he just couldn't Beat It though the songs were his Jam and thought Robotnik to be a Smooth Criminal, he soon sold it he joined the Sonic hater club, they told him They Don't Care About Us and You Are Not Alone, but one night Sonic in his dream said Will You Be There for my games then Michael said I Will Be There Michael then said I Just Can't Stop Loving You he woke up with a Scream and then a Smile and said I Want You Back and bought Sonic and started it up he saw the tittle of the game he said This Is It Sonic in his mind said Love Never Felt So Good, he saw the load screen and said Wanna Be Startin' Somethin', the Human Nature of life was to play Sonic, Emerald Hill stood, he started playing, collecting rings Sonic saying Don't Stop 'Till You Get Enough, running freely but Sonic telling him Remember The Time, he wanted to Heal The World from Robotniks rein, He soon started to call Mile's Tails Bilie Jean and Dirty Diana, He knew the badniks were Dangerous, In Aquatic Ruins he felt like a Stranger In Moscow, from all the playing he started to see a Man In The Mirror couldn't tell if it were Black or White. All the dying made him say to Eggman oh The Way You Make Me Feel, When he finished a stage he said We Are The World and i'll Rock With You Sonic ti'll the end and soon saw his P.Y.T buddy go down, finally at the Death Egg ready to fight but soon died at the Silver Sonic and said oooh you Rockin' Robin - All Michael Jackson songs
Before I knew about barrel tip, all i remember was endless hell trying to jump repeatedly as Super Sonic. Hoping I can get pass that reincarnation of Mystic Cave's death pit.
I really like Carnival Night. I mean, the barrel is not the easiest thing to understand, but the stage itself, it's music, bosses and artistical side in general is amazing in my opinion.
Kiernan Howell-MacKinley Because it's the only point in the game where the "Press up and down" gimmick is used, coupled with the fact that jumping up and down on them causes them to lower and raise, so you assume that's how your supposed to deal with them.
I recall Carnival Night Zone, act 2 being the longest Sonic level on any Genesis game...I'd actually occasionally run out of time and seldom complete the level in under 8:30 (and this was after I had learned the barrel trick)!
What's so striking for me is that after 25 years when I played this and was on the verge of tears over that stupid barrel is that countless others experienced the same thing.
* stops playing this game for about 8 years and comes back to this level * * Presses up and down * me:........THAT'S WHAT I HAD TO DO ALL THESE YEARS?! excellent use of such a daunting red and black for the text color scheme..because let's face it, this stage was all of our worst nightmares lol
All these people talking about the barrel, does anyone remember that one-way wall at the beginning of the first act that pushes you away when you try to go through it and when you go through it on the other side you have to go all the way back? I ran the timer out so many times trying to get past it
I spent about most of my childhood trying to figure out the barrel. My six year old daughter plays my mega drive now it took her approximately six seconds to figure it out. She thinks I was crying because I was proud of her. Let's leave it at that.
I just now realized what was that other tune that plays when Act 1’s part ends. It’s the beta theme of Act 1. I didn’t know it, when I first heard this a while back
I loved this stage when i played Sonic 3, i could totally see this in Sonic Generations. Too bad Lego Dimensions didnt make tracks like that..... btw I love the S&K Collection part! Well done!

In all honesty, I was a bit confused about the barrel at first, but then I was like, "Oh, I gotta do it *this* way!" Then I figured it out SUPER fast. Still was pretty confused, though.
I always thought this was the weirdest song in a Sonic game until Sonic Rush came along. I guess that's the Michael Jackson influence on the game's soundtrack for you.
I always loved this fucking level! it was so huge and full of shortcuts and hidden zones. Then the music was cool and when knuckles were turning off the lights??

This level is the reason why you should never complain about Omochao.

The Sega hotline never failed me during megadrive/genesis.

with help from the internet of course

I can't go to any Carnival Night music video without some mention of barrels in the comments.

then they come back on 1:41
then they go off again 3:24
and back on 3:58

For those who don't know what I'm talking about, the part from 1:07 to 1:42 is Carnival Night Zone Act 2 from Sonic and Knuckles Collection

I like Act 1 more than Act 2

Nice. The hard drum rhythm sounds like Michael Jackson's "Jam" even more than the original game version.

as if the original tune couldnt get any better, great stuff.
Michael Jackson! That is why the description is so wierd...
This is probably one of my favorites of these Generations remixes.
im still surprised people got stuck at that barrel, I figured it out rather quickly due to me experimenting with the previous barrels
This just isn't the same without the smashing glass sound near the beginning.
