Reposted by Sonic RetroThe GHZ @theghz.bsky.social · 21/03/2026Where do baby hedgehogs come from? Not from company mascot contests, despite what you’ve probably heard (tho that was a thing that happened, too). How did Sonic 1 REALLY come to be? Plotting the milestones on a timeline is hard because we have so few concrete dates, but let's connect some dots 🧵 13920
Sonic Retro @sonicretro.bsky.social · 22/03/2026If this game is about Sonic and Eggman playing with toys, this just means Eggman has been into the Care Bears for years.

Sonic Retro @sonicretro.bsky.social · 14/11/2025Cel-shading was instantly hip with the release of Jet Set Radio. Sonic using it? Made perfect sense. Then we saw that intro. Woah, cool! This was destined to be even better than Mario Party. Did it succeed on that front? Well, that is up to you. 3101

Sonic Retro @sonicretro.bsky.social · 13/02/2025There's not one, but two stages based on Sonic and the Secret Rings! Ok, that feels like a bit of a deep cut.

It's so weird to me one of the characters I co-created in them continues to live on. We find out in a multiverse with PARALLEL realities, the cop who polices them lives sideways in the one PERPENDICULAR reality that runs through all of them. 57815
