Been a bit since the last Sonic Lost Bits video, but we're back and we're feeling the sunshine today as I finally check out Sonic R! This game has a really cool development history, and thanks to the games lead developer, Jon Burton, we've been able to get an awesome glimpse into some early builds of the game. Lots has changed or been removed from the earlier builds leading up to the final release, there's a really cool prototype of Sonic R that was dumped online and there's even some leftover unused content to boot! Hope you enjoy!

Something funny about the publicly available prototype is if you look *very* closely at the sole of Sonic's shoes they're gray instead of red which predates Sonic Adventure by a year and one month. This also marks one of two times Classic Sonic has gray soles as in Sonic Generations 3DS, the higher poly model used for Classic Sonic during cutscenes is also used during the results screen and uses textures from Modern Sonic for some unknown reason. This can easily be seen in-game when clearing a stage with an S Rank.

Would you consider doing a lost bits on Rayman? There are some unused objects for Rayman 1, an SNES prototype for Rayman 1, and a prototype for Rayman 2 that would play just like Rayman 1. I’ve recently become obsessed with Rayman and I’d love for some others to get to see its history!

Very cool. My first experience with Sonic R was the PC version and I was pretty young at that time and both me and my brother wound up hating the game for how hard it was to control, however a few years down the line we would wind up getting the sonic Gems collection and tried the game again and found.... that we still didn't like it, but maybe 5 years after that I would wind up playing Gems again and decided to give the game a good hard try and see if I could get the hang of it and found that I actually liked the game for how quick and relatively easy it was to beat once you figured out how to actually play it properly and have loved the game ever since so it was cool to learn about these early versions as well as the scrapped modes and the 4 player online capability.

One thing i've never seen mentioned for this game is that in the manual for the PAL release of the game, it states that Knuckles has the ability to climb walls. I was disappointed as a kid to learn that he cannot. I wonder if this was cut or just an oversight?

One cool use that the Fire Shield could've had would be that it could activate unique traps through the course. Y'know, burn wooden bridges so that characters could accidentally fall into the water, or light puddles of oil on fire. Maybe even break some wooden doors or crates blocking short cuts, stuff like that.

I always love seeing rare positive/historical content towards this game. Obviously when played under the expectations of something like Mario 64 or Adventure, Sonic R is a very different experience; but different doesn't mean bad and there's really so much to love here. Genuinely, thank you for another video on my all-time favorite game. I first got it on PC in 98, then gems, and in 2020, finally Saturn. I've played it regularly since release (at least a few times a week) and I still find something new every time I play. Also, Diamond in the Sky >>>>>>>>

The playable proto art work was suppose to remain as the title artwork but they didn't want to spoil Metal and Eggman being in game. Luckily the head who was taking pressure for the team even getting their name removed from the credits until the newer rereleases. Manged to sneak it into the end of the credits so that way they could all still have it be used in some way.

It's a shame that travellers Tales never made a mainline Sonic game on the Saturn. I get one would taker longer to develop than this, and it would require gameplay similar to that seen in Sonic Jam. But even a short game would have been interesting. Sonic R looks closer to a full 3D Sonic game than the ridged None Boss Engine section of Sonic X-Treme.
