2D Forever

One of my favourite birthday memories as a kid was the birthday I got Sonic CD. Sounds sad, I know, but as a 7 or 8 year old it was the most important thing in my life at the time.

Before the days of unboxing videos on YouTube, my parents did a great job with boxing up my Sonic CD. It’s all I wanted for my birthday so I shredded through all the obvious CD-sized items to find it… Looking depressed but trying to be grateful to my parents by putting on a weak smile, I had one giant box left to open. I’m sure you get where I’m going with this. I really was an ungrateful shit as didn’t care whatever it was, but when I got to the bottom and found Sonic CD I was ecstatic …and probably foaming at the mouth a little.

Anyway, I love Sonic CD. Not just for the unboxing magic, but it is actually a fantastic game. One of my favourite Sonic games by far. This was a quick sketch for the Sega Blog’s competition. I’m assuming I didn’t win (shame), so I’m posting it up anyway.

It’s Sonic mid-dimension as he moves between the time zones. I remember thinking that whole idea and the effect for the transition was really strong. But not as strong as the awesome special stages – Those were simply brilliant.

I love the movement and the color in this, Sonic really looks like he's having a (Sonic) Blast!
