Sonic's gameplay in concept is meant for speedrunning. The classic developers often talked on the philosophy of their games and they made so speed would be rewarded to players who played multiple times through a stage. That's what many people dont realize and I think later games in the series only struggle with the balance of what level design is and isnt too punishing for the average player. Sonic games are entirely dependent on level design being pitch perfect. Mania and Sonic 2 are prime examples of this working perfectly. So in a sense, you're absolutely correct. Maybe not exactly the way dev's thought, but this is more of a top level version of what they were going for.
This is amazing. This isn't me bragging but I'm close to almost every one of these times and it kills me sometimes to see some new tech I never even thought used. It's always impressive to see how other runners play this game, helps me learn a lot myself. Keep up the speedrunning my friend you're killing it.
@@tylerd1297 I've gone back and forth a few times myself. Especially on stages like Studiopolis Act 1 and Lava Reef Act 1. But I never recorded myself so nobody knew haha. I should start getting a capture card and do that.
@@stormcutter59 don't you use the built in feature for replays/saves (in mania itself)? It's not very good but xbox also has a built in cc that can upload directly to TH-cam
@@tylerd1297 Actually I have the game on Switch only (I'm "Thunder" on the Switch Leaderboards FYI). And on top of that my Replay feature is broken. Not that it would save straight to TH-cam anyways. I think I might get the game for PS4 if I end up doing this. Seems like the best option.
@@stormcutter59 Ahh. Isn't the switch like the worst one to Speedrun on? I could be wrong I just heard it ran the worst. But that sucks I also remember my replay feature not working. This dude eventually pulled way ahead of me within a month of not playing anyway.
At 0:17 seconds you see how you jumped and you stayed in that solid blue animation I believe you see if briefly before drop dash but I see you can activate the animation through jumping and normal spin dashes …I’ve always been so curious how to do this no matter how fast I go I never see it when I jump or spin dash sonic still remains a transparent in his ball animation . Any tips on how to do it ?
this animation bug happends deppending on the fps on the screen, because depending on the fps, when sonic fast spins, the monitor can only reproduce one of the sonic spinning animation. SEGA have added two sprites tipes on sonic spinning: the spin, and the blue ball. When sonic spins fast, one frame is used for the blue ball, and other frame is used for the spin sprites, but some monitors cannot reproduce a really fast changing of frames, but in 60 frames per second you will se what sega want you to see a, smooth sonic spinning (Sorry for bad explanation)
@@lemmiwinks8689 Thanks and speaking of which I was wondering what do you do to get that early off screen jump towards the left side of the stage? I always go for the right side and drop dash to the left but I've tried it your way and I'm not sure how you're doing it while painting momentum. It feels like a tight window
At the very end of the first level how are you able to speed down the tunnel and jump all the way over to bounce off the crab at the end? Iv tried a million times and come nowhere near the crab?
I hate it when a glitch cheapens one. But surprisingly few glitches, even so! Most of this was really awesome. I wonder what the records for other characters are (especially Knuckles since he gets his own stage).
the sonic speedrun pros usually press all 3 jump buttons one after the other extremely fast until they have charged the spindash 6 times and then they quickly release the spindash to not lose the speed they got after charging it

My Xbox has been unplugged for a while but I used to run specific stages and this guy would always 1up me every time 😂

Imagine playing with competition mode and this is what you do
I can't even imagine how fast he could go in 3 air with the drop dash
ya see that glitch at 28:14? damn!
1:49: Ok I climbed the platforms so fast the water couldn’t hit me but wt?!

It's the Sonic Mania *TAS that I never thought would happen 🙏
people : the drop isn't that powerful
me : 0:18
Your the legit best it took me 8 minutes to do the first stage when it took you peanuts of time (27)
Either you take it slow, or memorize the entire game and go super fast.
That's pretty much how I was able to avoid getting a total game over.
As Tails
Dang, this is really cool!
I was just playing sonic mania and i saw this video and i was like "oh yes a perfect video for me after struggling on metallic madness"
This man went so fast that he timed himself with the music 0:06
o:
Fr lmao
Xandre69 are crazy...
Amazing🔥
How sonic moves through these masterpieces.
Incredible!!! I'm speechless
taking faster than the speed of sound to a whole new level
These compilations you make occasionally are sick. it makes me want to come back. Maybe add the date of upload to the video title for extra clarity?
I actually thought that my 39 sec record in Stardust Speedway act 2 was good...
But it seem like not
Epic Gamer Moments
Sonic movie moment:
This is… So ridiculously fucking fast… and I thought my times were good!

@@brenothehedgehog8432 thanks pal
Still not as fast as me when i hear an Ice cream truck
I always felt like this is how sonic mania is meant to played
I love that you put my avatar in it lol. Really cool video!
Your chemical plant run still blows my damn mind man. I can only dream of getting that kind of time.
@@stormcutter59 lol thanx. It's a hard time to beat but the more you practice the less impossible it's gonna be. keep it up

@@stormcutter59Just before the jump, when i see the camera go up i hold left and jump. You can get it pretty consistent with practice.
@@lemmiwinks8689 On the stages you're good at, you're an absolute gamer bud. Keep it up lol
Safe to say I did see this man in the world records and my record was so close to his I just needed to not choke
same. I'm usually about 5 seconds behind even when I take slower paths. Now that I know about new paths I keep slipping
You is gotha go fast
Que foda mano. Speedrun de Sonic é top demais
At the very end of the first level how are you able to speed down the tunnel and jump all the way over to bounce off the crab at the end? Iv tried a million times and come nowhere near the crab?
Gotta say, Sonic is BEYOND Super fast in this game. Makes sonic 1 sonic cry.
I had very good times like a 43 I think second speedrun of green hill zone and it deleted every single time I had in every zone and act for no reason
This reminded me that dropdash exists
I think I just witnessed a deity
Sonic going to the toilet after eating taco bell:
Funny
I also had a like 1:20 speedrun of chemical plant
27:22 this was sick
I'm confused why do you take damage in HCZ1?
wow
If sonic used 0.01% or his actual speed
does anyone have any tips on getting the jump at 1:39 consistently?
you need to be sexy
True sonic speed without mods lol
No mirage saloon 1 for obvious reasons
Mania of Speed
Please send the link of sonic mania plus speedrun
Someone beat your zone 2 green hill score. It’s about 17 seconds. Idk how.
Looks like i think ultra speed

WHO THE HELL IS Z AND HOW DOES HE HAVE 11 MILLISECONDS
I hate it when a glitch cheapens one. But surprisingly few glitches, even so! Most of this was really awesome. I wonder what the records for other characters are (especially Knuckles since he gets his own stage).
Next time i Will be the speedrunner

Sick to my stomach,,,
So perfect its disgusting 🤣✌
Ur So Fast
What if.sonic got high on hydrocity 2
1:19
I only have Sonic mania plus
Hi
I’m sorry Xandre but I think you aren’t really smooth enough at speedrunning or mayeb it’s just me or the level
how is yo spindash so fast
the sonic speedrun pros usually press all 3 jump buttons one after the other extremely fast until they have charged the spindash 6 times and then they quickly release the spindash to not lose the speed they got after charging it
