Marathon Run? My best time with Vanilla Sonic and Tails is a time of 43 minutes and 16 seconds. I wouldn't say I beat them, as there are glitches abundant to skip your way to the end of the stage like any other game. Just a little trick I picked up along the way of DSZ 1, but you can skip the entirety of Egg Rock Act 1 and 2 if you find your way into this little tile at around the halfway mark and spindash jump into it, stay in there for about 30 seconds, you'll be a press of a button to the signpost. -

[Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dey0I4x8NGA]
I know ppl have said it before but it really does feel like Bridge Island Zone was the most realized zone for Superstars, don't get me wrong there's other Zones I enjoy like Pinball Carnival Zone but Bridge Island really has satisfying moments when you try to play this Zone as quickly as possible that other zones don't really have...
this run is far from perfect but I'm happy w/ sharing this
I completely forget there is a Time Attack mode in Superstars oops...
Ooh, sorry about that. I kinda lost motivation to frequent the forums for a while. But I had to come back after a certain black hedgehog got his name on the year. (Waiting for someone to make a thread on that, by the way.)
And... hey, Sonic Superstars. I don't have it, so I can't really compete that run, but from what I understand, this is a really clean run!
Sorry for not having much to say. Still a bit burnt out in general. But since it is the Year of Shadow, I guess I'm legally obligated to beat Shadow '05 and TA that.
All hail Shadow. -

I completely understand though, I'm actually really busy this month w/ moving and job related stuff so when I come home the last thing I'm thinking abt is spending my time trying to speedrun games
(I assume that someone may be me, the forums have been pretty quiet again...) trying to do Shadow runs would be fun since his year was announced and then maybe even when Sonic x Shadow Gens comes out later this year everyone can try and TA that too! -

At the start of this thread, I had mentioned fangames are also fair game when it comes to posting Time-Attacks... but I also mentioned Score-Attacks, which we haven't been doing much. Runs prioritizing highest score instead of lowest time.
So I was rummaging through my videos folder and I found I could kill two birds with one stone. With one of my favorite Sonic fangames, too!
(Music is the Raisins battle theme from South Park: The Fractured But Whole, by the way)
If I can go on about this game for a second. I used to play the original release of Sonic World, before Release 10, and its a fangame I hold near and dear to my heart for being one of, if not my first Sonic fangame I've played outside of Flash games. It was all kinds of jank but it was a prime example of quantity over quality, tons of stages and characters from all over the Sonic games, along with mod support. It was a Sonic fan's dream!
... Even though back then I barely knew any of the other character's names and had no idea who like 85% of the playable characters were...
Anyways, years later, Sonic World DX comes out, a current work-in-progress meant to polish up many of original Sonic World's issues (of which there were a lot). And right now they barely have as many characters and levels, but the gameplay is phenomenal, and is actually what got me so interested in doing Score-Attack runs in other Sonic games, this one is actually kind of tough to get S-Ranks on.
Nothing more to add. Just diversifying the selection even more. -

Mighty has to be my go-to character for Sonic World DX, yes.
I find him to be the most versatile character in the game. That sliding kick for a quick burst of speed and passing through obstacles, and double jump that works both for homing in on enemies and platforming are way too good. The air kick as well is also good for that bit of extra air time it gives you and also how it allows you to do the wall cling like in Knuckles' Chaotix (although I found the wall cling to be kind of useless).
Overall, I find the all other characters to be fun, but as far as I know, Mighty is the META. -

Good point.
