It's impressive how accessible game development has become over the past 30 years, and especially how people have adopted this medium. Like, yeah, not every Sonic fangame is a winner, but there's a definite climb in quality over time as people have analyzed and optimized the process and how game feel really works. It's incredible, really.
Imo it feels like the first two were the most technically sound until the late 2000s. But honestly, it's insane that for almost as long as Sonic has been around, there have been fangames being made of him.
That 1993 one is incredible. I saw the full video linked in the description and it has a 3D special stage, and much more accurate momentum & jumping physics than many official 2D Sonic games, it's crazy.
No Triple Trouble 16-Bit and SRB2? Those two are literally some of the best Sonic games ever made, regardless if they're official or fan made… *Death.*
honestly you may have not encluded some of the most well known fangames but i got to learn about other fangames ive never heard of, so honestly thats honestly cool!
i observed a lack of Sonic Time Attacked lol, seriously man old Sonic Fangames have an unbeatable aesthetic to me, this video was a great way to discover some older fangames like Mi Ni Ikuzo Hedgehog and Chaomega
Respectfully I'm not a huge fan of the games included, like the early versions of SRB2 must have been some of the first 3D sonic fan games of all time. Not only that, but games like Sonic GT, Sonic Venture, and Sonic Onset Adventure were absolutely revolutionary in terms of their gameplay and abilities to stand on their own against official titles, let alone Project-06!
Thinking about Sonic Mania: Metallic Madness Zone here and wondering if Christian Whitehead played Mi Ni Ikuzo! Hedgehog 0:30 in 1993 and thought, "This is cool and cute. I'd like to have this in my game some day." lol
I'm surprised Sonic Robo Blast 2 is nowhere to be seen on here. It's by far the best fan game ever made and it has been in development since months before Sonic Adventure came out
I miss the times when Jrpgs were just Jrpgs and they didn't have to adapt to the standards to get as many people as possible to buy them, because before they were created they already had many loyal fans. Now JRPGs are a million spinoffs of Persona 5 and some shit like Metaphor
This video doesn’t include it, but I really like a game called Sonic vs Darkness. It was first released in 2011, followed by a remake called True Nightmare Revived in 2016, and then Combat Beta, which came out in 2023 with further development. I’d describe it as a 2D version of Sonic Unleashed, with smooth controls, thrilling gameplay, and an amazing soundtrack, all of which are really well-crafted.

Mi ni ikuzo! Hedgehog is absolutely stunning for a 1993 fan game, better than quite a few official releases
Mi Ni Ikuzo! Hedgehog looks and sounds like the game was made off of the Sega OutRun arcade hardware.
its fun too
no
It reminds me of a pico8 game
Sonic pico right @@Slimewizard36

6:12 OH MY GOD THE NOSTALGIA
Ultimate sonic flash was the first sonic game I had played on a pc. It's accurate to sonic advance trilogies but had a good screen resolution too.
0:36 Wow, this looks great! This fangame should get a remake or something like that, a 30+ fangame having really cool sprites is amazing.
6:09 everything started here for me.
You forgot that one obscure sonic fangame made by a 6 year old with little to no experience in 1994
What's games.

Triple Trouble is overrated
I like how the classic physics get more and more accurate with each passing year
Ultimate Sonic Flash is the game that everyone played before, and we all love it.
it is an absolute crime to skip, SRB2, Sonic GT, and Triple Trouble 16 bit
And also that one russian fangame that continues Sonic X's story.
And sonic utopia

Sonic Freedom is the game i've dreamed of making since i saw that Sega Cd ad. Someone did it. Damn.

1:06 that’s not a fan game that’s a Bootleg.
3:37 the earliest prototype recreation
5:07 This, alongside Sonic Unity is what introduced me into the fangames made by Magicgrafx back then. A shame that they've since been cancelled.
you forgot sonic robo blast 2, anyways nice video
such a great video
4:36 🤯 wow! How were they able to put Marble, Hidden Palace, and Hilltop in one level?

Punishment for forgetting Sonic Utopia 2017 you must speed run it with no damage
the exclution of sonic robo blast 1 and 2 in this is painful seeing as 1's final version was in 1998 and robo blast 2 started development in 1998
Kinda surprised SRB or at least SRB2 wasnt on the list
Please do fan-games of both Super Mario and Street Fighter next.

Sonic and the Fallen Star

you had ONE JOB to include a 1996 sonic fan-game made in tgf and you chose SONIC BOOM. OVER SRB2!?!!?!?
