Personally, I wasn’t a fan of Lost World, so I’m extremely happy to see Sega take a slightly different direction with the new Sonic game. Sonic Boom looks like one of the boldest games in the series yet. Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric - Sonic Jr in Cyberspace (2014 DLC Release - Big Red Button Entertainment, Rebellion Developments, Sledghammer Games, Infinity Ward, Neversort Ent.
We’re also focusing on a hard hitting combat system, with major playstyle differences between the four characters. Rise of Lyric is an action-adventure game with a stronger emphasis on exploration and combat compared to previous Sonic the Hedgehog installments, featuring four main characters whom players control: Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy. Sonic Boom will also have a much deeper combat, as Rafei noted that But we wanted players who weren’t as skilled to be able to follow the core path. We want players to have a clear path to follow but the worlds will consist of multiple spokes and wheels, allowing for branching paths for more veteran players. It’s more of a linear game with lots of little sandboxes, and not an open world. But now the shock factor is gone, so it might be the time to calm down and learn more about the actual game.īob Rafei of Big Red Button recently spoke to Destructoid about what we can expect from Sonic Boom‘s gameplay: If this theory holds true, Sega is ultimately responsible for letting the games turn out the way they did, but Big Red Button is also at fault for not having managed the project adeptly on their own.Sonic Boom definitely deserves its name, considering the internet exploded with fan outrage. If there’s more to this than what is publicly known, they still won’t talk about it. Our source also points out that immediately upon release, many of the people in Sega and Big Red Button became tightlipped, canceling interviews and similar press events. The game was greenlit after it became clear that there wouldn’t be enough in the cartoon and Rise of Lyric to tie them together.Īs our source explains throughout, his theory does not take Big Red Button off the hook from developing a buggy, problematic game, but it explains how such a high profile project could have turned out in this condition. Big Red Button had little communication with OuiDo, the animators behind the cartoon, leading to last minute changes in the game to tie them together.Īs for Sanzaru’s Sonic Boom Shattered Crystal, it is a last minute addition well after the other two projects were in development.
Based on other information collated from various sources, our source posits that Sega essentially mismanaged the collaboration for the Sonic Boom franchise as a whole.
