Little did we all expect that an official sonic board game was just nearing it's release. Pretty cool video though ^^ , shame I couldn't find it on itch to play it uu.
Very cool concept here! Those meeples are indeed gorgeous. I think you could have printed random token values directly on your tiles instead of tossing tokens after the tiles are placed, because at the moment there is no difference between the tiles (except for the save point one), so there is not much value in shuffling them and placing them face down. If you added other playable characters and made it a race to robotnik, I would enjoy this a lot as a print & play game.
Yes, I agree the tiles themselves are a little irrelevant. They originally were supposed to do more but I wanted this game to be accurate to real life and thus not using much computer generated randomness to generate the board. Multiple characters are a neat idea!
I find it really amusing that so much time was spent with anything but game design. 😂 Don't get me wrong, this happens to me all the time. I wanted to make a video game version of a card game I am developing, in the hopes that this might help me with solving some issues, and I spent those days with coding scripts that wouldn't be necessary for the core game play instead of actually making that core. At least I was able to resist the urge to make the elements more than colored squares and text. Still found myself trying to animate projectiles at some point.

It's been out for 3 months. How did I just now realize that I didn't post the link. Thank you

This is VERY cool!

This just came to mind: maybe you've already created the whole gameplay and this was more about making the assets and assembly 🤔
if you can turn sonic into a book then you can turn sonic into a board game
