Sonic Omens | The Worst Fan Game Ever Made

foreign [Music] Gomez a few days ago got the last episodes released and I played them because I was stupid that day Sonic Goldman's is not good I'm just gonna say that right here right now the only thing going for it is the music the level design is awful the story is very fan service the controls are weird and the buses are either boring too RNG based many people are raving about it calling it the best 3D Sonic game even better than what Sega desos I made in the past decade but it is that really true that's the one question I really want to answer but first let's delve into the controversy of this game [Music] so back in 2020 this game was under the title of Sonic 2020 and everyone loved Akon is the best Sonic game ever when there were a lot of problems that I will go into then a year later the game got a new demo to rename Sonic Omens which added a few new levels and a boss or two then a year after that in the glorious year that we called 2022 we got the last three episodes now people may be wondering why is this game so controversial when you put it in the title of this segment well it's because of this the creator of this game who goes by Ball online is directly profiting from this fan game through a patreon page where they would give incentives towards more game content such as pay me this much money and I'll make this level next now this is a new cause bull got for this back but it's like 2020 was out but it appears for this new one they've instead changed the patreon to the name of the a game Studio you attempt to make it less scuffy or suspicious it's the big problem because it will cause sake of America to get rid of fan games and if this keeps up and come on y'all I need my solid 306 silver update like please I think I need somewhere Ollie please okay I think that about does it now on to the controls [Music] Sonic or shadow in this game controls weirdly you got the infinity controls and the generation controls I went for the generation controls because where the is gonna boost up the right trigger Sonic and Shadow are a bit slippery in this game like they slide all over the place boost Jing is the same it's always been in this game you have a double jump which is a positive because platforming this game makes pulling teeth look easy you have the bounce move I forgot this was in the game because I used it once the Quick Step is useless because with the parts you're supposed to use it and it feels like it never goes far enough from your starting position and the Light Speed Dash which I also forgot existed because the game barely has a use for it now for shadow he has chaos Powers chaos beer Dash control and blast I never used Blast even once I never used it once and I also don't know how to use it because the cane didn't teach me in Shadow's tutorial level great level by the way Chaos Control I barely used I only used it in the movie uh boss fight and the Swamp Thing boss fight Casper I only use for hitting switches and destroying robots in the jungle level I only use Dash because it's the most useful for the platforming again that's about it but nothing is as bad as the tornado sections in this game you see to control the tornado here's the right stick up to go forward down to go backwards left to strafe left and right to strafe right Edge move up or down you use the camera stick you can boost up the right trigger and move him using the camera stick there are also Barrels guns and Rockets the camera in this game is at the camera barely focuses on the pots or the segment where if you don't pay attention you die and if this camera is better than the one in God of War 2018 we're gonna have the problem because God of War 2 18's cameras is basically bad now before we continue I want to say that the socks Act is actually really good with some great compositions to fit with the stage foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] thank you [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] foreign [Music] [Applause] Sonic Omens is atrocious if I were to put it this way it feels like it's trying to mix the adventure formula if the Boost formula and that doesn't work before you see the adventure formula levels are made for exploration and pinpoint platforming and the Boost formula is made for speed and spectacle and that doesn't work for this game since you are slippery in the air it is hard to make a pinpoint platforming section work and when you are boosting you can't just do it everywhere because you will die the game even tells you that you will need the Boost Esser in areas the battle areas in this game are awful first you have too much space which means that it will take forever to repeat these enemies second there are either too many enemies like in Shadows Arena or annoying enemies with big hit boxes like in Sonics some ending placements are annoying like this one and me and Sonic's on this level the tornado stages want you to go slow and fast after the same time and that doesn't work either and in the tornado's last level the tornado is trying to keep you away from progressing now let's talk about my two least favorite levels in Sonic Pokemons tree Palace is garbage its design feels like a treasure hunting level this stage is made to be like a maze and it's awful there is a box spring that doesn't work and you have to walk underwater to find a switch to activate its spring just to go up in the trail trial and error platforming don't work the Citadel of lotus is everything wrong with this game terrible platforming annoying enemy placements janky wall running Spike against the death and the worst battle arena in the entire game I spent 14 minutes trying to beat this stage on my second playthrough and I'd rather be getting the S Rex at Sonic Unleashed in this garbage now I'm not going to talk about the story in this game because I don't like it basically Chris work with the meta rex or something you know that Chris is dead and The Meta Rex is going to command genocide or something just to travel back in time I really don't care about it that much for now I want to talk about the bosses because they are not included Dragoon e0 is boring he does attacks and wait for his weak spot to show up really fun the snake thing is annoying you're in tornado and you must attack his head it's hard to do that if you are trying to drive the stiff ass tornado while fighting something and it's a very common thing in these tornado sections The Vortex is annoying just attack him over and over and Chaos Dash to avoid his attacks next metal Amber is annoying you are too close to him that Dodges attacks and you can't be too far away or he'll shoot die Maria is the worst boss in the game yeah the Dodge many things and with the annoying camera it's basically impossible to do that and the exiled phase one is as bad as Maria or basically at the will of the RNG Gods to make sure you don't die from his moves you can't Dodge Space 2 is basically the same though it's easier to dodge them because you're boosting all the time let's keep this going needless to say don't play Sonic Omens it's a fan game that I don't like and I don't recommend it it has bad level design bosses that aren't good a fan service story and stuff yet lose controls if you want a good Sonic fan game if it's 3D I recommend either playing sonic p06 or sonic GT they are far more replayable than Sonic if you like today's video consider leaving a like And subscribe before more be sure to follow me on Twitter and litter box Link in the description until then I'm Avatar
