Sonic Runners: A New iOS / Android game?

[Happy Cat]

the man himself confirms it

[Radrappy]

off cause it is

[Happy Cat]

good to see Sonic Team is writing the dialogue again for Sonic games. I was getting sick of the unfunny writers writing the story for the last few games.

[Radrappy]

uhhh on the other hand, knuckles cursing feels extremely out of character.

But is the one that unlike Sonic doesn't chuckle


At least is nothing like ow the edge-Shadow stuff.

This is a really shitty game. Im not the most experienced or knowledgable mobile gamer but I have played some endless runners. This has been the worst so far. My main gripe is one that probably doesnt last long, but it instantly gives a bad first impression. The pop ups and constant tutorials handholding at the start is a lot worse than sonic dash, jump or other endless runners and really tested my patience

[Nirmugen]

You mean the 4 notifications and the tutorial? Well, at least you can wait until next updates when they changed some things..

or hit 'skip' on top. Is it annoying? Yeah, but took me like 2 seconds to skip it all.

[CrazyT]

I just went back, and they still occur. Just had the game showing me how to do the roulette, use a partner, pop ups for wisps, pop up for facebook sharing, pop up for every passing goal. Just saying I think its done better in other games. The endless running itself gets old fast and doesnt motivate me to keep playing.

Edit: what i mean to say really is that i dont like mobile gaming f2p traditions, so anyone who's more accustomed to this stuff, I am not so excuse me if I sound ignorant.

[TimmiT]

The tutorial stuff is only the for the first ten minutes or so? They still do tutorial stuff in story dialogue but aside from that it's not really that bad.

Japanese iOS users love Runners right now. From Friday 27th, it reach the Top 3 in free overall Apps and it still there

You know. Where I come from 'damn' isn't really considered a swear word... I mean 'bloody hell' is worse and even that is acceptable in children's books like Harry Potter.

[George]

I don't think 'damn' has been a curse word since like 1960.

[Radrappy]

Not sure if you guys are kidding or not but

a) 'Damn' absolutely is still a swear/curse word; you're not allowed to have characters say it on any major children's television network and it does officially go towards a movie's language score in the MPAA rating system.

b) Regardless, Knuckles has never spoken like this up until now and it feels super weird coming out of him.     

c) it's probably in all honestly just a poor translation of the Japanese "darn it."

d) the last time sonic characters said damn was in shadow the hedgehog.  nuff said.


this is all probably just a taste thing but it definitely makes me cringe hardcore.

Rad, I understand you work in the industry of films, but really the MPAA is bullshit. Honestly find the whole idea of 'bad language' bizarre. Honestly, who is offended with the term 'damn' and why does the MPAA dictate what is good or bad language?
