This whole video can basically be summed up as “X is actually useful now”. It’s amazing how many features of 06 were superfluous in the original game, and how pretty much everything was fixed here.
One other big thing I like about this game is how taking damage works. Your rings really scatter around when you get hit. They don’t just make a nice little circle around you. So you need to go out of your way to recollect one. You can’t just ignore damage in this game. That will eventually get you killed. Unlike almost every official 3D Sonic game.
Another small critique I’d give this game is that the red gem is now pretty useless, since it slows down the player too. I’d say revert it to how it worked in 06, minus slowing down the timer.
I was initially not sure if I wanted to do a video on P06. Felt like I said everything I had to say in my Fan-Made Sonic Remakes video. But I hope this was a good watch. I mainly wanted to show off the gameplay and how fun this game can be when you get in there.
I was actually debating for quite a while whether or not to give fan game reviews the SWAG title. But putting them into some other category is like treating fan games as lesser than official games. Which is something I definitely do not believe. There are nearly as many great Sonic fan games as there are official ones, and they quality of them can often be comparable or even better than the official stuff. They deserve to be given the same respect.
Here’s a link to my spreadsheet where I link to all my recommended mods and versions of Sonic games. btw, P06 has a mod loader.

Holy crap this looks like so much fun, I wish I would’ve gotten this game in Christmas 06 instead of the dumpster fire.
This a really good bruh while honestly strongly disagree with the controls in the older 3d cuz they control responsibly especially adventure 1 and 2 i can't tell rather its skill issues they everyone has when people played them or something but either way its nice to see a 06 being a decent game still not as good as unleashed or adventure 2 but its close enough tho 😗
I personally like SA and SA2's control, when it comes to Sonic. SA2 has issues with the mechs, and the treasure hunting stages prevented the controls of Knuckles and Rouge to Shine brighter.
In SA however, i think everyone controls pretty well. I believe that including that including SA and SA2 in the category of Sonic games with bad controls would be a little bit overboard.
From Sonic Heroes onwards, yes. There's no question about that.
At this point, a Sonic Boom remake wouldn't surprise me. The fans are incredible…. Congratulations to the team!
How is Amy being invisible useless???
Honestly Chaos X has massively improved this game when it comes to gameplay, in game cutscenes and graphics. Obviously, there's no fixing the lame story imo, it's there. And if he added the extra dlc levels and/or boss fights but improved, that'd be just as awesome.
But one this I would LOVE to see, is if him and other talented individuals, remade the cutscenes. I've see his Twitter of 06 characters interaction from specific scenes (like when Sonic runs into Silver again) and the expression from these characters look amazing. I wouldn't mind waiting another year or 2 or even 3, if he (along with help if needed) decide to remake these cutscenes and add more personality into it.
Pipe dream ik, but jeez that'd be freaking amazing 😊

The adventure style games may have fucked up physics but those games were always more fun to me than the boost games
I'd love to see the bosses, hubs, missions and eventually all of story mode remade in P-06, really just to completely make the original game completely obsolete. I also think it'd be really interesting if modders took SA1 and SA2 levels and ported them over just to see how they'd work with P-06's mechanics. Imagine playing SA2's treasure hunting stages with the new Knux/Rouge, or playing the mech stages as Omega.
Reading the description, does that mean woull be tackling more fan gme rojects on uour channel?
they should just remaster it
"The Year is 2006, Things….. Have Changed."
Seems like the only thing P-06 is missing now, is context.
Oh great more praise to the polished turd that Project 06! I find it funny that fans tell the journalists to let 06 go and stop talking about it when Project 06 is living proof that fans can’t let it go either just in the other direction! I may say journalists need to stop bringing up 06 but at least I put my money where my mouth is and truly leave 06 in the past and don’t bother saying it should be fixed or it’s some kind of unfinished masterpiece! I truly want to leave 06 in the past and the only way that happens is if Project 06 is cancelled and dies!
Ayy sick vid man, as a p-06 speedrunner this update is full of really good shit, (minus some nerfs to sonic…) but something cool with blaze is you can triple jump by fire clawing in the air after a Jump canceling it the you can jump again!
God is indeed good for letting me live long enough to see the complete 180° of 06’s popularity. 17 years of bitching and the same uninspired talking points now turned into a serenade of compliments. About damn time some respect was spat on this tired game’s name.
When the Sonic 06 Fan Remake is so perfect the only way it could be improved is removing the Sonic 06 from it.
This project just conforms what fans have been saying for over a decade. The game had a lot of potential. This fan project has finally realized it. Once the project is finished and optomized it's over for the original game, might as well make P-06 official.
man loved the video! i was thinking the same thing about making a whole new game. i wish this was an official project, it’d be so dope to have these characters as their best selves officially. would also be dope to see the chaotix or somehow for them to implement heroes mechanics.
I think it's interesting hearing this and how much of P-06 has the best features or whatever of a sonic game, and to think that's what Sonic 06 was going to have had it been finished XD 06 really is the best game in the series in a sense
This is the first Pariah video I watched where it didn't sound like he had to go "lawyer mode" to defend something. It sounds like you had genuine fun playing this game. Glad it made you happy.
