“How the fuck are you playing so much better than me?! You’re not even looking at the screen!”
“It’s a simple game, Vic, not my fault you suck at it.”
“Oh come on! You’re cuddling your little fuckbuddy and STILL beating me at a game that came out two decades ago! How!”
“It’s the first level, it’s easy.”
“Siren magic, more like, dark magic. Am I right?”
“You’re not wrong, but it doesn’t take siren magic to press buttons.”
“Okay, smart ass, best two out of three, we’re gonna do this all night even if we have to!”
“You haven’t even gotten to the end of the level once yet.”
“Alcohol and chips and pumping through my bloodstream and I’m ready to fucking beat your ass!”
The blue pony groans in response to all the noise. “I’m starting to regret letting you in my house, Vic.”
“You’re not even playing the fucking game!”
“Neither are you, look at that, you just got hit.”
“Fuck!” The pegasus focuses his attention back to the TV.
The unicorn giggles at the antics.

Wow an actual background! It almost didn’t have one, but it looks so much better with a few added colored shapes.
Since I have tons of sources to cite, let’s get started.
Okay, for the Sonic shirt, that one’s easy, I found this video (which is from a longer video that you should watch but don’t watch the first like 1 and a half minutes if you don’t wanna see someone taking shit, seriously) of Oliver wearing that shirt and I wanted to recreate that ever since I found the video last month, but I didn’t know how as I couldn’t find decent photos of that shirt online. The first one I found was downright tiny so I kept searching, and the biggest one I found was this which isn’t even that big, so I got mad, and I REALLY wanted to make him wear that shirt, so I just went “fuck it” and I just vectored it all myself from that reference. It’s not perfect but it looks good enough in small scale to satisfy me.
As a bonus, have some videos an image and an Instagram post that prove how much of a Sonic fan Oliver is so you know I’m not just pulling this out of my ass. Extra.
The purple shirt is this and the white shirt is this. One poster on the wall is this and the other one is basically this just with the logo added below it.
All the drinks are names after album titles for the hell of it. Count Your Blessings is BMTH’s first album (which isn’t very good). Let’s Cheer To This is SWS’s second album (which is quite good). And A Flair For The Dramatic is PTV’s first album (which is also quite good). The chips are named after a song.
Also they’re playing on a SEGA Mega Drive because Oli’s British. Even the controllers say this. It took me an hour to grab the screencap as my emulator was playing tricks with me and had to be uninstalled and reinstalled like a dozen times, worth it I guess, tho I didn’t manage to make it perfect as I was trying to time Tails getting hurt as Sonic was walking. Oh well. (Also Sonic has 69 rings, that was not planned) Gets the point across.
I spent way too long on this image, but I like how it turned out.
Long-ass description.

I know that much
No, but they did add the Hidden Palace Zone.
Oh, ok
I don’t know. I only know of romhacks that add it.
Didn’t they add dust hill in the android/ios version?
Dust Hill never had proper finished graphics, Wood Zone might have had better luck tbh.
I can get through all of 2… until Wing Fortress Zone. Metropolis zone was a tad annoying, mostly due to those annoying stars, crabs, and ugh, slicers. But there were no bottomless pits at least.
And then the final boss is a tad tense due to no rings. I wish the steam version of sonic 2 added the cut dust hill and hidden palace zones.
If the 32X itself wasn’t such a bitch to setup, and the cart not expensive I’d just play it that way.
Agreed, “Knuckles Chaotix” has only got a rerelease on GameTap, (is that service even around still?) so it’s definitely overdo for an official rerelease. Though, hopefully not as half-assed as the “Sega Forever” line. (Which really needs fixing, or an improved emulator.)
Saturn and 32X re-releases would be nice.
Never got to play it. (Seeing as it never got a rerelease, but the Genesis version has many times.) The Sega Saturn version had differet Special Stages, I hear. Probably more 3D.
Sega really needs to start rereleasing their Saturn games somehow. (Despite failing in the states, the Sega Saturn did very well in Japan.)
3D’s special stages were super easy. Dunno ’bout the Saturn version tho.
The first few are easy… The rest get crazy! You’d have to memorize them perfectly to beat them.
The official Christian Whitehead Mobile version of Sonic 2 is a li’l better, sense it made the stages actually 3D, and with a smoother framerate.
Mobile Sonic 1 was improved too with a Mode-7-style smoother rotation animation effect for it’s Special Stages.
The only Sonic game where all the Special Stages are easy is surprisingly, “Sonic 3D Blast.”
I can’t do the special stages if my life depended on it.
Sonic 2 isn’t exactly “easy,” but I can breeze through it easily now. …Except the 7 Special Stages still give me trouble to this day.
