@@seematahir5970it’s a joke bro leave him alone bruh 💀
It's the only o-Oooooooooh...Noice joke mate! 😂
0:17 Bruh didn't expect that💀
I was afraid on what you were gonna say on Frontiers because although it’s a change from the zoomed circles we’ve recently been getting it actually felt like a fit to the overall vibe the frontier landscapes gave off.
The Generations 3DS version was similar to the console version, but it was red instead of green. This version of the reticle is also the one used in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Also Unleashed used a red reticle in the Wii/PS2 version
Also Sonic Lost World 3DS one is red again but there's an Orange Version that appears when you gonna attack a stack of Enemies
sonic unleashed reticle is still my favourite. there are just about zero levels with green as a primary colour so using green to stand out from sonic’s colour scheme and the enemies colour scheme was a super great idea i feel. the lock on sound effect too did its job incredibly.
2:40 nah that's just average Sonic Colours Ultimate gameplay.

I get what you're saying about fancier homing attacks, but I think when you get into the grit of it, it doesn't have to be super decorative. At the end of the day, if it fits the overall design of the game and maybe has some animation flare, simple is probably the better way to go.
I don't enjoy Forces, but they probably made it green because there's already a ton of red going on in the visuals, which would've made the homing attack harder to see. Green is complimentary to red, so we'd notice it faster.
Edit: That said, I'd have picked a white or yellow for Forces so it'd fit the color pallet for the majority of levels better. Maybe white with a yellow stroke or vice versa.
My favourite is the lost world reticle. I like the simple design and the sound effect of it is so satisfying-
Personally, I always wanted it implemented in the least obtrusive way possible, a colorless simple thin-lined pair of brackets would be enough for me, no beep sound, no animation. I think spark 3 is like that. I also believe homing attack could very likely be tuned to just do what you feel it should, with no indicator, by advanced input reading methods now. It never constantly broke in adventures, it was just inconsistent in specific areas, and when paired with the bad forced camera. From back since then I think it could be perfected.
You got me to watch a 5 minute video on homing attack reticles 😭
new sonictuber to binge instead of spouting fbi crime statistics to my family
I don't know I can still jump on enemies just like the classic games in Sonic Adventure without the homing attack I never really thought about it lol
I like the Frontiers one because it's not so "in-your-face" but it still sticks out enough to see it and it matches the games art style
Leave it to this guy to make even the most boring things interesting

mom! i stumbled upon a pretty damn underrated channel
Thank you! Trying my best to get bigger and it’s proving to be difficult but I’m gonna keep going
@@oreogod1985 idk why difficult when ur channel has everything to start competing with the millions oh wait there is something u dont have
over saturated thumbnails and lankybox type content
looking at it its better that way lel
@@surpriseman yeah I feel like I could improve my thumbnails but im not sure how
@@oreogod1985 ur thumbnails are good i was just mocking lankybox and these type of channels thumbnails
for how cool the reticle can be
i'll never forget how many times It has fucked my time in Generations
I love how theres a sonic video for literally fucking everything. amazing
And there’s tons more to come lol
i like the click sound that the homing reticle makes when it appears in sonic frontiers, it's very satisfying
I love your editing
I have literally not l never thought this hard about the reticle. I'm just thankful it's here
fun fact: sonic frontiers “loading” triangle slowly turns into a circle as you progress through the game
no really it was a hexagon at one point
I remember at the final boss it becomes a full circle, kishimoto said that its supposed to be sage’s character evolving through the game
@@oreogod1985 please rearrange sage for a moment… i literally just thought of it
Coming back to these Older Animation videos for inspiration.
3:19 I started laughing idk why
I think they have the reticle a bright red/green to draw the player's attention. Our eyes are easily drawn to bright colors after all
núnca creí encontrar un canal que hable de estos temas, increíble
Green is Sonic's eye color.
Serect rings and frontiers are my favorite
I noticed that through out the games the homing attack reticle has been green multiple times and I'm assuming, that they were implying how Sonic saw his enemies in the action
Green eyes and Green reticles, you know what I mean
The homing attack was in Sonic 3 & Knuckles / & Knuckles for Hyper Sonic, but it doesn’t have a reticle.
never liked them, wish there was an option to turn them off honestly. but frontiers has the best imo. very subtle
After the reticle was introduced I find it harder to go back to the games that didn’t have it.
0:17 lmao
2:59 Actually, Sonic Generations’ HA Reticle reminds me of the time stone from the MCU because the time stone is green and Sonic Generations is kinda like time travel so I think it’s okay.
Rush series and Colors DS and even generations 3DS : guess we don't have a homing attack...
I grew up with sa2 for many years as a kid, never moved on from it till colors released and I honestly didn't like that circle appearing, still don't cause it just doesn't feel right for me
I can see how it’d be weird for sure
0:17 you ok robot?
Great video
Honestly, I've never really been a fan of the homing attack reticle. I get why it's there, but I wish there were an in-universe reason for it.
There doesn't need to be an in universe reason for it
It's just for gameplay purposes only
Do you want an in universe reason for the ring counter as well.
@@teamdarkfan317 You miss my point. I think they're ugly, the games would look better without them, and the only way I'd accept them is if there were either a non hand-hold-y or an in-universe reason for them being there. There isn't, so I don't like them.
@@thedanverse I mean homing attacks themselves are hand holdy
press a for game to play itself
@@thedanverse Sonic and the Secret Rings: AY!
What I’m wondering is why none of the reticules have used a shade of blue. (Project 06 does but that’s not an official release)
Sonic Adventure is my favourite one xd
For those of you wondering, the Homing Attack reticle in Smash Ultimate is the one from Colors
Edit: it’s the Generations one but red, ignore me
Well actually it’s the generations one, colored red
@@oreogod1985 oh yeah that’s interesting, what do you think of that, then?
@@UltraSTH hmm…it already looked kinda meh so being red doesn’t change much for me. It’s neat it’s even in smash at all though
@@oreogod1985 that’s fair
me when i run out of things to talk about
Nice video
That..FUCKING perfect homing attack noise in colours ultimate GRATES MY FUCKING EARS
Resuming: some guy hating the color green - 2022, colorized.
Unleashed Wii uses a red reticle
Sonic and the Secret Rings ?
I thought it was Sonic Unleashed
First we have circles, now we have triangles. What’s next? Squares?
I’m holding out hope for the diamond fandom
sonic lost world had the stacked reticle which i thought was cool
FYI the PS2/Wii version of Unleashed used red reticles instead of green.
Rewatching this video made me realize how little attention I pay to the recticle in the games but Ig I am more focused on completing the levels fast
lost world being simples serves another purpose: you can charge up the homing attack and the reticle gets more rings added to it... hey i didnt say its groundbreaking or amazing, just pointing out that you havent mentioned that which i think is a good way to indicate it to the player (once they figure out you can charge up the homing attack anyway)
You overlooked one thing.
Secret Rings has a two-stage reticle.
When in range while sliding/charging a jump, four green diamonds in a spaced out X-type pattern show up.
Somehow you have it in the example footage but overlooked it.
People had trouble with what enemy they wanted to hit? Huh...
in my opinion, i think green is a better color scheme for the reticle simply because it stands out more.
i dunno why, but i can barely ever make out the reticle whenever it's given the color red.
like, imagine placing a red reticle in a stage that's completely dark or has little lighting in it.
sonic colors is a prime example of what i mean.
also, i do not find that homing attack sfx to be satisfying at all in colors ultimate.
it may be pleasant to hear at first, but eventually it'll start to get really annoying quickly.
i'd say a sfx like that should only be used in fewer occurrences than on a common basis.
Isn't there an auto reticle in smash ultimate. I know it's not a sonic game but hey it could have been nice to look at.
It’s the same as gens but it’s colored red lol
@@oreogod1985 so slightly better. All is well in the world
@@smashman600 Technically, the red version of the Generations reticle actually originates from the 3DS version of Generations
Yessssss
Actually It Was From Sonic & Knuckles Because Hyper Sonic Can Homing Attack
Oh shit lol you’re right
the best to me is forces its my first sonic game
TFW you're so content-starved yoy made a video on reticles
Liked it anyway
What is that adventure level you’re playing man, it looks like windy valley but it isnt
I feel like I’m the only person who never had an issue with no reticle. Sonic always attacked the enemy I was aiming for back in my Adventure/Heroes/06 days. The addition of reticles has only got in my way and the only two I do kind of like are Frontiers (because it’s subtle) and, funnily enough, Generations (probably because it’s one of the most boring like how you described). The only game I ever had an issue with a lack of reticle was Shadow the Hedgehog, but that was mostly because of the stupid out of control spinning he did whenever you tried to attack a group of enemies…. But yeah, I always managed just fine without one. Maybe you all just need to git gud.
HEY HEY HEY IM SONIC THE HEDGEHOG DO YOU WANT TO SEE HOW FAST I CAN GO??????
Unleashed H.A >>>>>
Yuh
I could have sworn I saw this same video months ago. Did it get deleted or am I tripping ?
Yeah my old channel got screwed since TH-cam has weird rules about monetization and age, so I started over lol
@@oreogod1985 oh
3:54 Kill a duck
I really don't like the reticles that are flashy. In a game where you are moving at mach speed. I prefer a reticle that isn't visually noisy so I can tell when to home
you forgot smash bros reticle
The smash ultimate one is the best
alright man you either have too many video ideas or no ideas at all
either way i respect it
I have a ton of ideas don’t worry lol
To be honest, i don't like reticles at all.
How? They literally do nothing but improve the gameplay. I don’t understand it is objectively an improvement.
@@zf10studios52 While being able to know where is going your attack to hit is indeed an improvement, the reticles can ruin the while visual armony on the screen, they just take a lot of space in the screen, they fix our aiming no matter what, thus making us not able to choose which enemy to hit freely. Also, they make an irrititing sound everytime they appear on screen, the whole experience just become predictable, boring, and even irritating. Changing some details like the color, the sound, the size of reticles can improve more the experience, but right now they suck.
@@lausonic11 my dude it’s like 16 pixels tall, it’s only large in the storybook games.
@@lausonic11 and plus, they don’t change your trajectory, you’re equally as free as the adventure games, it just tells you where the homing attack will land based off of your position. It’s the same system, they just show you where you’re going. A good example is project 06. Zero difference whether or not the reticle is on.
@@zf10studios52 No, the game physics and mechanics dont work the same in all the games, not even close like they did in the adventure games, still you only talked about the playable point of view and not the visuals, which is almost as important in a game as the gameplay and the whole sound and audio aspect. They're irrititing.
He ran out of ideas.
u skipped smash bros sonic reticle :/
It’s the same as generations but it’s red, didnt feel like including it since itd be kinda pointless
I really wish they kept the Perfect Homing Attack mechanic.
