In high school, Sonic Generations style remixes were what exposed me to the video game remix community. I used to spend HOURS listening to modern/classic style remixes and white space hub style remixes from artists like Shirojyu, Ashzone, Tee Lopes, Nefault1st, the Segatenderations team, and so, so many more.

Listening to all of those remixes over the years gave me a crazy idea: what if I made a Sonic Generations fangame, but with a twist. Rather than the game's zones pulling from Sonic's OFFICIAL history, they'd draw from his FANGAME history instead! Thus, "Sonic Fanerations" was born! It'd be a big fat celebration of the Sonic fangame development community and all the amazing titles they've put out over the years, many of which I grew up playing!

I couldn't stop myself from diving headfirst into making the theme for the game's "White Space" hub world as soon as I got the idea. In-game, this music would dynamically switch depending which zone you were standing in front of and loop until you entered it (just like in the original Generations!)

At this point, I'm not sure if a fangame like this is something I could make happen on my own, especially considering the resources and time it would take (a lot of original art assets would be needed and I'm also in my final semester of college and am SUPER busy right now; not to mention level design, either finding an engine or building one from scratch, testing, etc. etc.). But it's a project I'd really love to see brought to life so I honestly forsee myself at least trying to make it at some point in the future (likely with some help from some fangame dev veterans in the community since I've never made a fangame on my own before, lol)

In the meantime, I hope this medley makes all of you as nostalgic about Sonic's fangame history as it did for me making it.

Happy listening!
