The link above will take you to a video made by @FireSonic225 trying out this challenge. In a completely radical sequence of events, they were able to complete that level.

Oh dear god he’s in the walls he’s in the god damn walls SEGA: what if we made a game with a story about war and have concept art that looks like the game would be promising but then change every thing later before the release slap on some paint that looks like it’s being stretched throw the Nintendo switch controller in there for the Nintendo switch users and have classic sonic be there for absolutely no god dang reason…
Which is interesting because if I recall correctly, most other boost games start you with either full or one gauge (In the what, one game that has multiple gauges?).
@@supersmily5811Only Generations, the Rush trilogy and Frontiers puts you with a full gauge. Unleashed you need a couple of rings and for Colours you need a Wisp capsule
@@bobbovine Both versions of Unleashed started with an empty gauge. However on the wii/ps2 versions pressing the boost button as soon as the text said go you'd get a free boost.
Unwiished is still peak boost gameplay, can't change my mind. Still sucks that people spread the myth that the Wii version has no good controlmethod because Classic Controller is literally right there.
What's funny is that the classic sonic stages would be possible if you carried any momentum like mania. But no, they can't even make it carry any momentum in the slightest.
I like how before frontiers, Sega absolutely INSISTED on having as little modern Sonic gameplay as possible in his own games. Except lost world ironically
Only reason it was like this is because if there weren't other styles the games would be done in an hour. Colors escapes it by having the game be 2d and more platforming based
My Grandma made the best deviled eggs I absolutely have a memory of playing Sonic Heroes while waiting for those eggs, absolutely amazing eggs, I really hope you enjoyed those deviled eggs after you finished recording!
Damn, I remember trying this and just leaving it as a wip... glad someone made it tho Edit: There are some tricks that weren't shown in this vid. Here's what I've learned while trying the challenge out myself... 1. Slide is a godsent. If you spam slide as either modern sonic or the avatar, you'll keep sliding since the initial slide gives a boost of speed 2. You can complete prison hall without any upgrades. The slide works just fine, especially if you use the slide trick 3. You can actually get through the lazer section of the pyramid with keen use of dashing down. It's tricky, but gives many a style point 4. Sunset heights does have a slide trick. Sidestep on the edge on and off of it, and your position will be misaligned slightly, leading to a slide. Sadly, it's impossible due to a spring that changes your direction, and is unable to bypass it 5. Once again, slide spamming works here too in the avatar level before the infinite boss fight 6. Cube wisp shreds infinite, and he usually stays in the center of the screen. If he moves, find a hire able avatar with either drill or lazer to deal long range damage and close in for cube 7. Imperial tower is actually possible, you need to use a drill and lazer wispon, and good use of their wisp powers all throughout the level 8. Sonics last level should be able to be cleared at the start with slide as well, but didn't know sidestep worked as well 9. The final boss, especially the avatar, it worked for me with i think drill and either burst or hover. This was a huge pain to beat, but it worked well. Just get towards the back, and repell projectiles with hover, using drill to move. 10. That avatar trick to turn around is something I only found by accident. It usually ruined a run instead of helping tho. That was about all I found. I hope this challenge was ok on your sanity, cus I know for me I never wanted to even touch forces after this
Hol up, Imperial Tower is possible?? Damn. How foolish of me. Would it be too much to ask for you to make a quick video of that? I’ll make a pinned comment with a link to said video so other can see it
11:30 I thought "equippted" was a bit in that video. This sequence gave me a laugh, thank you. (fwiw, I cannot say I've never done the same. "Hyperbole" is a tough word to pronounce from writing, "timbre" is bizzare, and while I can't remember them, I'm pretty sure there were a few relatively ordinary words I had wrong for a while)
I've done this before lol. In Mortar Canyon, at the beginning, if you spam the Slide button rather than holding it down, you get more distance! I didn't know the quickstep would work too!
I would not count myself as one of those five people who liked Forces, but a part of me wants to be. There are some good ideas here, they’re just wasted on this game. The avatar is my prime example. Character creation aspect aside, they were my favorite character to play as: maybe not that different from modern Sonic, but all the differences that were there had potential. The wispons were…kinda broken honestly, but open the gate for a mashup of Sonic speed and spectacle fighter, kinda like what the Spark the Electric Jester games tried to do. The grappling hook, while mostly just a homing attack substitute and otherwise automatic, would fit in great with that. Sure, these are just my own wishes, but they’re proof of potential in the avatar’s kit that wasn’t realized in Forces, and yet having those tools in the first place still made them the most fun to me. The squandered idea thing goes beyond wishful thinking, too. Still mainly with the avatar, a few stages seemed super cool, still kinda fun to play through, but just didn’t get their chance to shine with the tiny stage lengths. Aqua Road is my prime example: a fun little water ride to some nice music (yes I kinda like the OC stage music) in Forces, but it could’ve been so much more as a longer and more realized level, a maze of water slides where risking your life and launching yourself off to another segment is often rewarded. Prison Hall’s also on there for cool factor, though in that case it might actually be just the right length. And while many might see it as a negative, I enjoyed how the likes of Arsenal Pyramid utilized the wisps: maybe it’s a bit much for lightning to let you skip the entire back half, but I very much enjoyed the idea of getting access to new routes depending on what Wispon you bring in and thus what wisp type is active. I still can’t like this game fully: it’s short, it’s dumb, and the title character is either a nothing burger as modern or terrible as classic. And yet I still find myself liking almost everything about the avatar and wishing they were in a better game.
@@Capoodle Shame, but I'll summerise it for you: _"The Avatar is a really cool take on the basic Sonic gameplay (even if the Wispons are bit on the broken side), but the levels are too short to be fun, even if their concepts are awesome.

My first playthrough of this game I did a boostless run, turns out this game is about 99% beatable without boosting. The only part that requires boosting is the last segment of the final boss. (Just to clarify, I didn't count double boosts as boosting since the game does them itself without my input. That being said, the triple boost dose count since not spamming the boost button results in death.)
32:47 I'm looking forward to that. I still play Sonic Battle sometimes. It's the biggest grindfest imaginable, but it's a somewhat essential part of my life now.
@@artey6671 It's been years since I played it. Yeah, 100% cards is something I never even got close to. I just saw what I got as I went through story mode and tried out combinations, unlocked Chaos, got the Super Combos, repeated each mission for the secret Gerald logs, then did a bunch of runs of the Tails lab challenge until I got bored. I did small amounts of grinding, like, 2 or 3 fights every chapter or two just to get some extra cards. But not much.
@@calemr Grinding in this game is not particularly fun, but I kind of force me to do it every now and then. The thing is, the ultra skills are nothing compared to the ??? skills. I have almost all ultra skills, but only 2 ??? skills. They are almost impossible to get.
Your work is awesome. Your mentality of “be the change you want” is something I definitely admire. I check thr channel every now and then to see new uploads. It was also really cool to find someone else who likes shadow the hedgehog.
Fun story with me and Forces: it kind of sprouted the seeds for my main OC Ise (in my profile pic). First time around, I kinda just wanted to make Persona 5 Morgana, but for some reason decided against it and just made his fur green instead…only to unlock the Joker outfit after the first couple stages. Little guy didn’t mean much to me on that run, but fast forward a bit to when I was thinking of making a sona, and the fur color and fashion sense popped back into my head. Well, with some design changes to the coat of course: issues with just taking Joker’s aside, I wanted him to have his own style. A bit later, I made another run of Forces; with Ise now a fully realized OC, I went into avatar creation with his current form in mind. Couldn’t really make him exactly, but I was pretty happy with the outfit I ended up with. Funnily enough, he still wore the Joker coat the second time around, just because it’s the one trench coat in the entire wardrobe. Go figure.
@@littlemoth4956 Yeah, I can see how he’d look like it at first glance, especially in such a small window. I’ll admit to seeing the MLP Movie at the same time, and Capper being another inspiration for the physical design. However, he was never meant to be a straight recolor. Similar due to being the same species, but the smaller details are pretty much all completely different. Though…yeah, just from the tiny TH-cam profile pic resolution, it’s practically impossible to pick up any details on that coat, but trust me, the design is different from Capper’s or Joker’s.

Great video. Love the challenge videos and look forward to more! Figured Lightning and Drill would be the heavy carriers. Glad you got college and job stuff figured out. See you for the Mystery Dungeon video!
I felt that "equipped" segment too hard, man. I recently discovered I've been saying "processing" as "processessing" which wouldn't be a problem except I work in audio and I say it once every two sentences 💀
The fact you know enough about this game to even do this much is amazing considering how this game seems to have the power of being so boring nobody can remember anything about it
I’d say “beat 06 without encountering horrible glitches”, but frankly they were pretty kind to me when I played it. Not that my run was completely painless, but the issues I had involved the Havok Engine making explosives blow my rings into the stratosphere as they drop and, well, End of the World. Both things that aren’t actually glitches, just things working as intended that really weren’t thought through.
Aside from cookie dough (although that one slaps too), we have two same favorite flavors of ice cream. My third being this one that may be local to my area, but it's Martha's Vineyard Blackberry. Subbed for that alone. Also PHRASING 26:28
honestly, still having almost half of your game be completable without the analog stick is still a huge failure in a ogilvie maurice the hedgehog game. this was a fun run to watch - that lightning wispon is insane
About the Classic Sonic stages, technically this video is titled “can you beat Sonic Forces without the analog stick?” Never said you couldn’t use the D-pad
@flameosaurus1832 i think it gets hate due to the fact that the trailers promised so much, and when it came out, the hype had pretty much died down, and it was... mediocre, to say the least. I also feel like it's because the fans knew how much wasted potential there was therefore they hated it. I for one do occasionally play it for fun. (Also infinite had so much potential to be something more than just "I AM NOT WEAK" and "edgy the edgelord")
@@Danny-bl5tq It’s true that it’s an aggressively mediocre game, but a very vocal part of the fanbase (usually dark age fans) treat it like the worst game in the series
to answer the title question, All of them can be. On the switch version the direction buttons can be used in place of the analogue on ALL stages no problem.
I've never really been the biggest hater of Sonic Forces, but I literally just discovered that Shadow has the exact same quickstepping animation as Sonic while running, and I am now both deeply offended and disgusted 28:46

I wonder why (almost) no one noticed over the years that the wispon drill is a Gurren Lagann reference, we even got Kamina glasses for the avatar
I love how if you were allowed to hold the analog for 2 seconds once a level all the avatar and Modern stages could probably be completed
Cool, a video on my first sonic game!
It's a great day when you upload!
Don't tell RadicalSoda, he's already dealt with this game enough for one lifetime
12:37 FINALLY A PERSON WHO HAS WATCHED HOME FINALLY
honestly, still having almost half of your game be completable without the analog stick is still a huge failure in a ogilvie maurice the hedgehog game. this was a fun run to watch - that lightning wispon is insane
How?
Well I guess that's what nakamura wanted. Dashing like a maniac lmfao
No Oglivie Maurice the Hedgehog is great
Had to drop a comment appreciating the Home reference.
This deserves a fist bump 👊
Ahahahaaaaaaa 😎
Congrats on your job, hope it pays well enough.
Imagine the in universe reactions of Sonic’s friends and Eggman watching
About the Classic Sonic stages, technically this video is titled “can you beat Sonic Forces without the analog stick?” Never said you couldn’t use the D-pad
new Mawde Wilde video just dropped!! time for me to stop everything and enjoy the show!
"*insert level* It is a 2d level that stars Sonic" Mawde Wile 2023
Thank you.... I've been wanting a video like this for years
I gotchu dawg
a mans worst nightmare is a 2D level starring sonic
You;ve evolved a fgood bit since you did shadw the hedgehog, nice video
I really agree with you’re taste in ice cream
Your channel is awesome, I love it
I love your vids too
Remember, this is peak game design👌
Man, I don't care that Forces is simple and easy, I think it's fun AF.
It’s definitely not a great game, but Forces gets far too much hate
@flameosaurus1832 i think it gets hate due to the fact that the trailers promised so much, and when it came out, the hype had pretty much died down, and it was... mediocre, to say the least.
I also feel like it's because the fans knew how much wasted potential there was therefore they hated it.
I for one do occasionally play it for fun.
(Also infinite had so much potential to be something more than just "I AM NOT WEAK" and "edgy the edgelord")
@@Danny-bl5tq It’s true that it’s an aggressively mediocre game, but a very vocal part of the fanbase (usually dark age fans) treat it like the worst game in the series
Out of all the things to reference… Home is NOT a movie I expected to get referenced
i’m one of the three people who got the home reference lol
Sonic and friends save the world by cartwheeling all over the place.
One hand boosts are always the best!
to answer the title question, All of them can be. On the switch version the direction buttons can be used in place of the analogue on ALL stages no problem.
Alternative Title: Is it possible to beat Sonic Forces while looking at Rouge "fanart"?
The video chapters' names are hilarious
I get the reference to home in the video. Nice reference.
I've never really been the biggest hater of Sonic Forces, but I literally just discovered that Shadow has the exact same quickstepping animation as Sonic while running, and I am now both deeply offended and disgusted 28:46
I feel like a villain for liking the Classic Sonic music
I mean I like Sonic 4 music so I think you good
@mawdewile
What's wrong with that music?
Classic’s Forces music sounds like it came out of Sonic 4. I think people don’t like it because of the soundfont
@mawdewile
Okay
It only works for the 2D levels. The D Pad (or D buttons on the Switch) wasn’t built for 3D platforming.
I quite liked Sonic Forces!
this is the most fun sonic forces has ever looked…
I got the Home reference, you can sleep peacefully now 👍
I played the entirety of Forces without realizing you could sidestep without boosting
please never stop saying equippeded its so endearing
My guy ya wicked love the challenges
12:36 Wasn't expecting a refrence to Home here... Anyone remember the Netflix show for it.... I SURE DON'T!
