Question for you all:
If you wanted to see a 3D Sonic level, what kind of environment would you want it to be, and would you want it to be more adventure game based (open ended exploration with collectibles and secrets and challenges to find), or more typical action stages (more linear and fast paced, focused on speedrunning)?
Also keep in mind the following:
-Grinding is not possible.
-Elemental Shields and some Wisps are possible, as well as other typical Sonic item box powers.
-Sonic has access to the Boost, the Spin Dash and rolling, the Homing Attack, the Jump Dash, the Light Dash, the Stomp, the Quick Step, a "Quick Turn" (like the drift, but not the exact same), and can also hang from bars which can be locked on to. He can also push objects.
-Classic Sonic-esque physics in 3D are possible.
-Water and it's physics are possible.
-Super and Hyper Sonic are possible.
-Something like a more cartoony, comic book style, with cel shading and black outlines, MAY be possible.
-Sonic 3 & Knuckles style special stages are possible.
-All of the typical Sonic stage elements (except for grind rails), like loops, springs, dash pads, dash rings, etc, are possible.
-The level can be quite massive in size.
