There’s no community quite like theSonicfanbase when it comes to taking matters into their own hands if they want to see a projectSegahas no interest in come to life. There are loads of fanmade Sonic games out there, and potentially being added to the mix soon will be one called Super Sonic System.Created byOMinecraftera(thanks,Time Extension), footage from Super Sonic System has been shared on Twitter. The game clearly pulls inspiration from a lot of different places. Most notably the original Sonic games, but as is plain to see, and has been pointed out by its creator, the game is also inspired byDonkey Kong Country.RELATED:Fans Want To See Sonic R, Sonic The Fighters, And More In Sonic Origins PlusCreated at a time whenNintendoand Sega were still bitter enemies, Donkey Kong Country is considered one of the best games in the series to this day, almost 30 years after it launched. On the one hand, it certainly would have made sense for Sega to pull from such a popular game for whatever it had planned next for Sonic. However, a game that has clearly pulled from the iconic DK title like the one below might have been a little on the nose.
Donkey Kong Country isn’t the only place from which OMinecraftera pulled inspiration for Super Sonic System. The creator mentions in the comments that it was modeled after the Sega Saturn’s style of game, and there’s even a level that takes place on the Saturn logo. Had the first level, which is called Green Passageway, not been given a Donkey Kong filter, it also wouldn’t have looked out of place in Sonic 3 & Knuckles.
While the next official Sonic game probably isn’t going to look like this, Sega has already revealedthere will be more 2D gamesin the hedgehog’s future. The studio also confirmed thatdue to the success of Sonic Frontiers, whatever’s next in the Sonic series will get a higher budget.
