There’s a new demo, if you fancy trying it for yourself.hey find it here on Itch.io.

The base marker for judgement of any post-Mega-Drive Sonic game is: which sidekicks have they kept in?

Sonic Galactic seems to have the right idea.

The game otherwise fits my memories of the Mega Drive games like a glove.

The chiptune soundtrack, meanwhile, has that pacey wistfulness I associate withthe series at its best.

Sonic Galactic was announced back in 2020, and doesn’t have a release date yet.
