May be they are.
May be only few things that SEGA allowed them to do.
Unlike SEGA HARDLight, Gamefam is still a third party company.
I hope Gamefam will be allowed to use some of HARDLight's characters.
That's nice to hear. Was last year like this too?
I don't recall it being as hot last year... nor as worldwide of a heatwave.
It feels like it's set up to celebrate Halloween.
I doubt it. Neither Archie or IDW seem to had bothered much over seasonal specials. They could of made a Halloween special during the Metal Virus Arc. Zombies are a staple monster in Halloween, it would of worked to make some sort of "of the Living Dead" parody comic special with Metal Virus victims. Especially if they release the special for
free on Halloween.
Funny thing is Tails wasn't playable in Sonic 3D.
Should've taken places from his Game Gear games.
He wasn't playable, but he and knuckles were still present on Flickies Island... as doormen to the Special Stages. I imagine the comic specials is what Tails got up to on the island when not standing around waiting for Sonic.

I wouldn't mind a Sonic game maker as long as it's in 3D. Take a look at the custom stages made for Sonic Generations. Those stages were made in Blender and I dunno how they were ported over but imagine if Sega released developer tools to the public allowing us to make our own Generations or Forces stages with ease.

These are alright, but kinda long-winded and slow. I think TailsTube paces it more well.
