"Sonic Dream Team", a new sonic game for Apple Arcade coming Dec 5th, 2023



SEGA has released a brand new video today for a new title in their Sonic The Hedgehog franchise, titled "Sonic Dream Team".

The game is a full 3D platformer featuring Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Cream and Rouge, each one with their own unique abilities, throughout what seems to be dream-like stages, to save the world from Dr. Eggman and retrieve an ancient artifact that makes dreams come true. The trailer shows a few levels, with very vibrant and detailed stages, as well as unique enemies and bosses.

Secure your spot in the adventure of a lifetime. Pre-register now to be among the first to join Sonic and friends in this Apple Arcade exclusive, launching December 5th! Follow their quest to restore balance, help a new friend, and save Cream the Rabbit. Find the Dream Orbs, defeat bosses, and be part of the ultimate dream-weaving experience!

Wave the dream!

seems already like the most interesting sonic game besides sonic mania / sonic colours from the last 2 decades. propably will never play it because of apple arcade. rayman mini is stuck in that garbage service and some other titles.

If there was an architectural jump at some point, that was justifiable to lose compatibility.
Pretty sure that was the reason for it. Newer devices don't support the old 32 bit games, and even for older devices, compatibility was dropped in firmware from iOS 11...... Made it quite the trek to be able to play Monster Hunter Freedom Unite again lol

Who's playing on Apple Arcade fr ?

That's thing. Apple finances development of games to build an exclusive repertoire to attract people to subscribe.

Not only that. Back in the day at least, you're define a max version when publishing and app and you had to bump it with newer OS versions, that meant you needed to keep updating the app. There was also SDK changes that required you to do more than just bump the number to compile stuff.

Kinda reminds me of srb2, wonder if anyone at sega got inspiration from what is arguably one of the best sonic fangames out there.
Also the community already modded the base games in so many ways.
You can play as a multiplayers Persona like game or even as a kart racing game (SRB2K)

Tell me you did not read the article without telling me you did not read the article.
To be fair, everyone just jumped on the “Fuck Apple” bandwagon the second they entered this thread. I hate Apple but honestly the Anti-Apple crew are kind of annoying as fuck.
On the topic of the thread, I will probably check this game out when it comes out.

Touchscreen controls. Tap here and there, and move to the next part.

Touchscreen controls just suck for gaming.
Apple Arcade games are launched simultaneously for MacOS, tvOS and iOS. They typically support both controller inputs and touch inputs to accomodate the three systems (you can use controllers on iOS but most people don't use). That's not a thing inheritant to the game but a platform requirement.

It is with a proprietary adapter, but it does introduce some input lag from experience so I wouldn't recommend it. Not to mention how expensive that adapter is (like £60 to £80 last I checked? there might be third party ones though).
