    It was early morning in the Gold Leaf Galaxy as the Rainbow Line Express pulled into the station, or rather, poofed one into existence on the Comet Observatory; ah the magic of imagination. Imagination is a wonderful, powerful source of energy, any sentient being of sufficient intelligence can produce it, it can light the world and make the impossible possible. I learned that lesson long ago when I became the Red Trainger, I’d explain how that happened but that’s not what this story’s about, this is about how I married the literal Princess of the Cosmos.    “PLEASE STAND BEHIND THE WHITE LINE DURING DISEMBARKING!&

    I’m sure this isn’t the first op-ed article, sometimes video, explaining what the author thinks the problem is with Sonic and the franchise that you’ve read or watched. If you even clicked on this that is, I know I usually scroll past or ignore them unless it’s from a creator that I know and frequently watch because too many times in other videos or articles does it start out somewhat analytical before devolving into a mudslinging contest towards one era of Sonic or another; with the occasional jab at the fanbase.     I’ll admit I really never wanted to write this even though I already had all that you̵

    In Digital Narratives this semester we spent the first 2 weeks playing a game called Lasers and Feelings a game, not unlike D&D, you've got character classes and styles and so on. Reading the actual instructions would help best so here's a link to it. I was a Sexy Doctor serving on The Raptor, a Well-Armed Ship with a Grim Reputation and Cloaking Device sent on a mission to stop the Space Pirates from Occupying the Quantum Tunnel which would destroy a solar system. This is the assignment he gave us, to surmise the events of the game from our Character's perspective. Journal Entry 324: 10-21-3242 My Last Day on The Raptor     Being a

Sonic’s For Children, So it Can’t be Dark! Part 1        As part of my Game Design II class, my professor had us keep a journal of what was essentially us analyzing the design of existing games, game mechanic ideas or anything that is design related. So long as what we wrote wasn't a review or if we did say whether we liked a game or not we had to discuss what about the design that caused us to like or dislike the game. This is one of those Journals.     OK. So. Out of all the arguments for not making a Sonic game that is darker in tone, this is the absolute WORST argument. Ever. Its also a topic I feel very passionate about if

Sonic’s For Children, So it Can’t be Dark! Part 2 “I think you make impacts by taking risks.” - Actress Shenae Grimes    As part of my Game Design II class, my professor had us keep a journal of what was essentially us analyzing the design of existing games, game mechanic ideas or anything that is design related. So long as what we wrote wasn't a review or if we did say whether we liked a game or not we had to discuss what about the design that caused us to like or dislike the game. This is one of those Journals.    So in the last journal I ran down the Sly series, stated that even though it was series aimed primari

Sonic’s For Children, So it Can’t be Dark! Part 3 “You can't be successful in business without taking risks. It's really that simple.” - Current President and CEO of NASDAQ Adena Friedman    As part of my Game Design II class, my professor had us keep a journal of what was essentially us analyzing the design of existing games, game mechanic ideas or anything that is design related.

Good Gameplay does not make up for a Bad Story    As part of my Game Design II class, my professor had us keep a journal of what was essentially us analyzing the design of existing games, game mechanic ideas or anything that is design related. So long as what we wrote wasn't a review or if we did say whether we liked a game or not we had to discuss what about the design that caused us to like or dislike the game. This is one of those Journals.     Thoughts brought upon by TGX’s review and story analysis of Sly Cooper Thieves in Time which I recommend for at least the story analysis.https://youtu.be/JMYvaIjZVSo?t=1h14m18s     So I

            Remember my Previous Sonic Forces document? Well I submitted to a group and another user by the name of SAJ-Man also sent in a doc with his thoughts on the game. So I read his, most of it anyway because we seemed to share a lot of the same opinions on the game, so i left a comment with a link to my own document and he read it and he left a comment and I responded, and he responded, and I responded, and he responded, and I responded, and he responded, and I responded, and he responded, and I responded. So I took the comments, copied them onto a document, took a keyboard and spell check and implements of destruction and went over th

Some Preliminary Thoughts on Sonic Forces.    I originally wrote this in the comments section of SomecallmeJohnny's review of Sonic Forces.    SEGA Sonic Team really does need to get some new ideas along with taking some risks. Because the only real risk I saw with Forces was Eggman taking over 99% of the world and... and... that was it. I mean there was so much they could've done to make this game better, for one thing either not having Classic in the game at all or make his presence worth it. How would they do that though you may ask, well for one thing don't have Eggman's conquest take place entirely offscreen. Show it, show his forces

    One day in a Skype Chat that is no longer used, the greatest game yet to be made was born. It all started with one video.    NeoZeroNumber 2: ... What am I watching? More importantly, why am I watching it?    Shane Leath (Me): Magic. Because it's amazing. It is afterall    Caleb Leath (Also Me): THE GREATEST ANIME EVER MADE!    NeoZeroNumber 2: ye... goes back in time? What? I think I have lost the ability to even.    Caleb Leath: Yes    NeoZeroNumber 2: He saved America and ended the slave trade. OK.    Shane Leath: Shhh... Shhhh... Just let it happen    Caleb Leath:    NeoZeroNumber 2: How have I got half way through without
