"Sonic Mania is a true return to form for the mascot, in his 2D 'Classic' guise at least. It celebrates the glory days of the original games while also enhancing their qualities and taking on new ideas. From new areas, imaginative second acts and some delightful boss encounters, the development team has poured a lot of passion and talent into the project. The occasional bug and a couple of brief and cheap areas deprive it of Sonic-style perfection, but it's pretty darn close.Is it the best Sonic game ever? It's in the conversation, though the classics it's honouring may stake a claim for slightly greater 'flow' in the campaigns. Frankly, it's better just to call it a dead heat and skip the argument - Sonic Mania belongs in the company of the games to which it pays tribute - the Blue Blur is back."

About
Sonic Tameshi is a fan-made platformer where Sonic battles to stop Dr. Eggman from exploiting a secluded island’s resources. The game leans into classic speedrunning mechanics like Drop Dash and Wall Jump while adding new moves such as Peel Out. Players navigate tight levels filled with hazards and environmental puzzles, all set to a tropical theme. The lone campaign focuses on disrupting Eggman’s theme park project and rescuing a hidden paradise. Built on the Sonic Worlds engine, the game stands out for its precise controls and return of older moves that veteran fans might miss. While the story leans into familiar Sonic tropes, the level design and action sequences keep things fresh. Community feedback notes the game works best for those already comfortable with advanced platforming techniques. The PC port is stable and runs smoothly at higher frame rates.
