Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Sonic Lost World 12 minutes of gameplay

Nem on 07 June 2013

So, this is better than what i was expecting. Only 1/3rd of the game is bad, the levels with modern sonic gameplay. But the dreamcast era and 2D era gameplay levels look enjoyable.

The 3DS version doesnt seem to have modern sonic levels so its fair game for me again. I will be getting that version.

I was honestly surprised they are that far along to have a demo with the game being announced a few weeks ago. It could be an interesting holiday with 3 platformers on the market. Sonic, Rayman, and Mario

And Puppeteer!!! don't forget Pupeteer!!!!


Hurray for Platformers :D

Its literally going to be the Platformers galore starting with Rayman.

We can add Kirby, Knack and the rumoured Banjo Kazooie to the list of platformers coming this year! never thought I'd see the day when they made such a triuphant return :')

I dont know if your getting your Sonic terms jubbled or what but there is NO modern sonic gameplay( the system that started in unleashed) at all in this game.

Gameplay wise they're finally acknowledging some serious faults which have always held the series back.

Its less important but visuals the game is a big step back from Sonic Generations, both technically and in terms of art direction. The Wii U version looks like a 3DS game but without jaggies. Generations however was quite stunning to look at.

I was expecting the game to look more polished and beautiful, like Generations, but after seeing the game in action I really like the look of the gameplay in Lost World and the full interactivity of the levels.

Check the ruins area act 2.

Windy hills act 1 is dreamcast era gameplay cause you can move freely in all directions.

Something ruins act 1 is 2D gameplay.

Ruins act 2 is modern sonic gameplay. You cant stop sonic on that level and i imagine its the same automated "lane changing" gameplay.

This all on the Wii U version. Ruins act 2 is missing from the 3DS footage.

Looks fantastic, is it confirmed that the 3DS and Wii U versions will be different ? Is yes, I will get both !
EDIT:" the 3DS version is "not a port from the Wii U version" but features "totally new level design to match the screen size and hardware so players can enjoy both versions with a fresh feeling."
Yeah...will get both :P

Just as I thought you are using the term in correctly. Modern sonic is defined by the boost mechanic and game/level design being designed around that mechanic. That is a just automted section that actually is just like 06 high speed sections in the sense that is automatically moving forward without input from player except left or right movement to dodge obstales.
