Crazy Gadget is underrated AF

[Shadow The Hedgehog]

Just as the title suggests i think Crazy Gadget is massively underrated it's one of my favorite levels of the game!
There is so much creativity and effort put into the level and honestly if you hate the camera angles so much there is a mod that fixes it so yeah those are my thoughts what do you think?

It’s a really good stage.

But it’s also one of the more difficult stages.

So many who play it just once end up not liking after dying many times or maybe loosing all lives and having to start over.

But for those who play the game and try to go for ranks. They’re bound to practice and learn the stage design

Honestly I think it's difficult just because of the camera angles other than that it's a well designed level

Its the first Sonic stage that really starts using insta-kill pits often. So thats probably one of the reasons. The end section too, but taking that carefully makes it not too difficult.

And that one homing attack chain that ends with rings, but if you miss the light dash then you bounce to your death. Its easier to just ignore the light dash suggestion and homing attack across.

I can say this after 100%ing the game. Initially the level is a frustrating experience on first playthrough that is quite enjoyable on additional playthroughs for A rank. I dislike the hard mode a bit with these later levels, but learning the super bounce and using it at the end of the stage a lot like lost world in SADX was good

i agree alot. the stage is amazing but it's the crappy difficulty curve that's the real problem. it's like Metropolis Zone in Sonic 2

This and people who have only played it once will try do the puzzle properly. Switching about 4-5 switches instead of either jumping off the red block and onto the one with the artificial chaos. Press one switch for rocket and the ball switch on the side of red block. Do a big spin dash jump and get goal ring.

Or the other way of super bouncing on red block spin dash under the rocket and then walk over the kill plane under the goal ring and get an easier A rank. These unintended glitches are what makes the game more enjoyable imo
