Even though Im a
fan Im NOT going to lie, of course the
game isn't perfect,

games since - Iizuka met Christian Whitehead, which lead to the creation of
Sonic Mania - there was talk of another port, but Iizuka thought
fans would desire something new from the old
games - this is the first time Iizuka partnered with a team of devs spread across various countries - Iizuka said this team had a greater passion to create - this was in comparison to companies that set decisions on a pre-determined schedule (in meetings, etc)- the team had so many features they still wanted to add after the beta version was complete - since there were only a few spots with text that needed to be localized, they could bring the
game to more places quicker - the
game has Japanese, English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish support - the Studiopolis stage is included due to receiving the most requests from the
Sonic Mania development team - Iizuka actually considered reducing the amount of stages at one point in order to meet the development schedule -

for the final
game - the team felt the need to continuously connect stages from various eras, which is doe with the Phantom Ruby story -
for Sonic Mania, it was decided that the technological limit would be set at SEGA CD, - this is higher than the Genesis but lower than Saturn - in creating a SEGA CD - grade special stage, they would intentionally make SEGA CD - grade polygons
- Iizuka has received a ton of requests from
fans to have their own original characters appear in
Sonic games - while that couldn't happen,
Sonic Forces» custom character recognizes that
