Been a bit since the last Sonic Lost Bits video, but we're back and we're feeling the sunshine today as I finally check out Sonic R! This game has a really cool development history, and thanks to the games lead developer, Jon Burton, we've been able to get an awesome glimpse into some early builds of the game. Lots has changed or been removed from the earlier builds leading up to the final release, there's a really cool prototype of Sonic R that was dumped online and there's even some leftover unused content to boot! Hope you enjoy!

Like if SUPER SONIC RACING
Just finished watching the video. Super sonic rodeo
EVERYBODY
I'm Living in the City, Super Sonic Racing and you bet your ass I can feel the sunshine.
TRY TO KEEP YOUR FEET RIGHT ON THE GROUND
Can you make a plush
Would you consider doing a lost bits on Rayman? There are some unused objects for Rayman 1, an SNES prototype for Rayman 1, and a prototype for Rayman 2 that would play just like Rayman 1. I’ve recently become obsessed with Rayman and I’d love for some others to get to see its history!
Let's get this top comment guys, we all were curious
don't let this feller find mega man star force or rabbids go home.
Something funny about the publicly available prototype is if you look *very* closely at the sole of Sonic's shoes they're gray instead of red which predates Sonic Adventure by a year and one month.
This also marks one of two times Classic Sonic has gray soles as in Sonic Generations 3DS, the higher poly model used for Classic Sonic during cutscenes is also used during the results screen and uses textures from Modern Sonic for some unknown reason. This can easily be seen in-game when clearing a stage with an S Rank.
I still play the PC version to this day. Once you get used to the unusual controls, this game is great.
@@Ice_cube_tpothere before this sucks down

@@BlahoogaDMDhere before I suck down 🤤
@Ice_cube_tpot there are infinite universes and timelines the mental brain can wander through, and yet not one mind can find a single person throughout the infinite masses who cares about you being here before it gets popular.
Exactly
This is actually one of my favorite 3D Sonic games, despite it having very little content. It's just fun to go back to every once in a while.
Same, It's sad that the game is so short, I wish there were more levels such as idk, maybe an Ice level, a mountain level, a lava level, a cave level, etc.
But I still love this game with my heart and soul
grrrr you like sonic r??? how dare you!!!! 😡😡😡
If i had actual game development experience, i wouldnt even hesitate to make a remake of this game.
Boney pfp?
@@clichayedindeed.
I wish we could get those prototype versions of the OST. I love TJ's vocals immensely but I wanna hear that beta version so badly. XD
Omg, this was so unexpected but I’m so excited! This is one of my favorite games of all time for so many reasons. Not to mention Gamehut gave us some of the absolute best behind the scenes stuff of any game ever imo.
one day people will understand how incredible this game is. One day. 😅
Discovered this channel a few months ago after an accident i had and i couldn't wake up from bed for a couple weeks. You made my recovery wayy less boring man. Went back to see all lost and mistery bits. Only thing i did not found was any videos of crash bandicoot 3 warped or racing. Would be an awesome add to this channel man! Keep it going!
One thing i've never seen mentioned for this game is that in the manual for the PAL release of the game, it states that Knuckles has the ability to climb walls.
I was disappointed as a kid to learn that he cannot.
I wonder if this was cut or just an oversight?
If it's just the PAL manual then I can imagine they put that in as flavor text since Knuckles usually climbs in other games
@@DerMarcus_ Yeah, that was my assumption.
He mentions towards the middle of the video iirc that yes it was originally planned but ultimately scrapped
@@beansama7752 Yeah I wrote that comment before finishing the video, my bad
@@beansama7752 I must have missed that part. Did you have a time stamp?
Very nice how John Burton released all this info about these old versions!
Very cool. My first experience with Sonic R was the PC version and I was pretty young at that time and both me and my brother wound up hating the game for how hard it was to control, however a few years down the line we would wind up getting the sonic Gems collection and tried the game again and found.... that we still didn't like it, but maybe 5 years after that I would wind up playing Gems again and decided to give the game a good hard try and see if I could get the hang of it and found that I actually liked the game for how quick and relatively easy it was to beat once you figured out how to actually play it properly and have loved the game ever since so it was cool to learn about these early versions as well as the scrapped modes and the 4 player online capability.
Finally, a Lost Bits on one of the most underrated Sonic games!
True
it's not *TOO* underrated anyway
True! Sonic R AND ALSO Sonic the Fighters deserve more love!
@@ThisisTheUltimate Yeah dude, i know right!
But it does have an Over Rated Creepypasta "Tails doll"
that early city map would've been cool to race on in the final game
Bruh that prototype is from the DAY I WAS BORN
Same year and everything, it was red nose day that year too
That prototype is just as old as I am, that's wild af
The saw on Amy's car can also be considered a Speed Racer reference
AYOO
“Translate to English” 🫢 -> “COME ON”
👀
Bro how is this at the bottem 💀
Ah yeah
Bro how does this only have 9 likes
Sonic R's music is so good. I wish they could've got TJ Davis to sing for more Sonic games. The end credits theme for Sonic Shuffle always did sound like it was meant to have lyrics.
We are feeling the sunshine today
Say that to Saint-Petersburg
I hope Spamton participated in Sonic R's release, after all, game was released on his [Favorite Year]!
I owe you a huge [thanks] for covering this game.
A short but sweet game that showed off some really impressive 3D for the Saturn. Imagine if TT was given 6 more months!
It's a great game, but it's a shame it's so short
Its been forever since i watched a lost bits episode i love them grate work
The sonic game with the good music
You mean all of them? 🤔
@@emmastarr5242no not all of them.
Whoa, that Bit Gaming shirt looks pretty cool with all the characters in their corresponding colors!
Glad you like it!
I love this game. I grew up with the pc version. Great game overall.
Omg!!! U did a video on a game I have a genuine guilty pleasure playing! Thank you!!!😁😁
I never had the chance to play this game, but I absolutely LOVE its ost
I loved that moment when Tails doll said: "It's Racing time" and and overtook Super Sonic from the 1st place
Yea that was the best part!
finally
a very slightly more original version of this meme
This is my favorite Sonic game, let's gooooo!
TT more likely links to Tourist Trophy, specifically the Isle of Man TT, a motorcycle race held on said island.
This unlocked some old forgotten memories!
I think I had a PC release of this game!
Was such a wonderful game! Wish SEGA made a sequel! They should completely redesign the whole thing! It was such a great concept.
I always love seeing rare positive/historical content towards this game. Obviously when played under the expectations of something like Mario 64 or Adventure, Sonic R is a very different experience; but different doesn't mean bad and there's really so much to love here.
Genuinely, thank you for another video on my all-time favorite game. I first got it on PC in 98, then gems, and in 2020, finally Saturn. I've played it regularly since release (at least a few times a week) and I still find something new every time I play.
Also, Diamond in the Sky >>>>>>>>
Watch the Game History Secrets version of this because it might be a bit similar to this!
I would love to see this be remade in HD, with newer characters similar to how ToysForBob and Beenox did with Crash Team Racing by adding in characters from CNK, CTTR and Spyro the Dragon etc.
Unused content for my favorite racing game? Hell yeah!
thank you for doing this game i freaking love it and i might buy the merch
Thanks for watching !
Okay i didn't expect lost bit on sonic r
I adore the Ver. 0.1 build.
Sonic R content on Sonic CD's 30th anniversary. Nice
I love this!! Also 8:55 also some of the characters have different icons in this build
finally u did sonic R i was asking this for years
14:16 seeing everyone else just blast off like that is hilarious
that song is fire though 🔥🔥
I love this game so much.
Weak of you to use the instrumental versions of the soundtrack, though. The vocals are BANGING. I get it, artistic choices, words distract from your words, but still.
I really, genuinely think Sega should do a sequel to this game. I think it'd be fun.
Can you feel the sunshine?
You literally are so amazing
11:19 The song is Super Sonic Racing, it had to be hard to hear over the very enthusiastic Japanese fella.
That's not a random employee singing Super Sonic Racing (that's not Can you Feel the Sunshine, either-) for the advertisement.
It's still TJ Davis, just a demo recording.
did you know that the character designer for the modern versions of the sonic cast, yuji uekawa did the concept artwork in the beta for sonic r, super cool
I can feel the sunshine!
it would be very cool if they made sonic R 2, which is on newer hardware and actually fixed many of sonic R's slip ups and ofc, unlike other sonic racing games, actually has characters not in cars (except Amy Rose and Dr. Robotnik for obvious reasons)
Everyone is bad at controlling Sonic R, don't worry about that...
Also, It's epic that you have contacts that can give you info on prototype builds! This was a great watch. Very underrated game
It Been 84 Years Since The Last Sonic Video
Nothing about how Tails Doll got into the game? Jon admitted that it appeared without anyone coding it in.
He was definitely joking in that video haha
Fun fact: an unfinished build of Sonic R was actually available at retail on the Sega Saturn and PC, they actually never released a finished version.
One of the best sonic Rasing game
I've always wondered if there are any unused stuff in Riptide GP, could you do an episode on it?
I believe there was supposed to be a desert themed race track at one point.
We have a real TT race on the Isle of Man, which that game is based on, or at least inspired by.
I do not think that this game is bad. I'd love to see this game remade.
The playable proto art work was suppose to remain as the title artwork but they didn't want to spoil Metal and Eggman being in game. Luckily the head who was taking pressure for the team even getting their name removed from the credits until the newer rereleases. Manged to sneak it into the end of the credits so that way they could all still have it be used in some way.
Just realized that tetra doesn’t have over 1 million subs and thats an absolute crime
Just wait
We need a lost bits episode of sonic adventure
i don't mind this game, i only played it in later life on the gems collection, tbh if you want straight wins soon as you've unlocked the robo version of sonic you are pretty much unstoppable.
8:09 IS THAT THE MOAB ASSASSAIN?!
Wow, they worked FAST. No wonder there's only 5 maps.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONIC CD
Shane and Adam from Rerez absolutely enjoyed this game, and by enjoyed, I mean absolutely struggled through their video about it.
I fucking love this game!! Thanks lad,, appreciate it
Thanks for watching!
@@TetraBitGaming Ain't watched all the way through yet, but I like it so far, and I enjoy your content in general! Been getting into Modding the game myself, so this was a nice video to pop up in my recommended lol
The only Sonic game I have 100% multiple times. It is quite fun even if its very short, short and sweet if you will. :)
I remember being scared of yails doll back then lmao
Please bring more crash and Spyro videos of prototypes and deleted content
Those "prototype" models were used for the promotional renders in gaming guides hence their higher poly nature. You can even see metal Knuckles eye color difference matches the render compared to the game model.
Sonic R is one of those games that lives in the depths. You know about it, but then never think about it, forget it, and then when it’s mentioned it all comes back.
tails doll…
The biggest memoryi have of this game is that damn tails doll creepypasta lmao
Happy anniversary 🎉 ❤😊 thanks for showing and telling ❤️ you and your videos are awesome and amazing ❤️🙌🫶👍👌👏😊
EVERY BODY SUPER SONIC RACING! 🎉🎉🎉 I love this youtube channel I hope you never stop uploading! And no im not a AI or Robot.
The Legend is back
It’s been 3 days
It’s been 3 days stupid
you can see this game was made with love, the saturn version would be so great if it weren't for the janky controls
Tails Doll can feel the sunshine from this
Best video ever!
15:33
I mean, it is the Flame shield clearly.
They must’ve been using the textures over the electric shield until they got both power ups finished.
I'm going to hope you mistaking 'Super Sonic Racing' as 'Can You Feel The Sunshine' was not in the Script.
Ikr
new sonic vid yey
Damn the chemical speed highway zone looked awesome
Cool vid
carnevil arcade next ? If you want
This should be a fun vid! Not a good game but a good vid!
7:41 THE REAL SATURN MODELS
OMG IM SO HAPPY RN
Note, "TT" stands for "Tourist Trophy", a name used by several motorsports competitions, the most famous (or infamous) being the Isle of Man's Tourist Trophy, infamous for its high death toll and extreme speeds.
5:11 metal mario
Its fun to just ignore the race in this game and explore the worlds, theres a surprising amount of secrets
I swear if my Sega Saturn battery acts up and messes up my data, I’m gonna..
The timeless adventures of mickey mose
