Yeah, I get that. But they should remember they have two audiences: (1) Those who are new to the series, and (2) Those who have played the classics and want more games like them.
Personally, I don’t think BOOM would be that good for either, because 1 has the series ruined for them and 2 doesn’t get what they’re looking for.
…is what you get when I post something. 
Sorry everyone!
Except that you get SO popular you just about HAVE to end up in court.
I get that by now. I totally get that by now. If there was one gain I could tell you guys I got from this, it’s that I now know that copyrights are no joke. It’ll probably be better in the end anyway. Look where Freedom Planet got with that strategy!
As for being compared to A+ games, did I mention that Super Smash Flash (the first one, not the one that is EPIC) got tons of plays? It seems to have gotten really popular on the net, but the game-play is very different from the actual Smash Bros.!
I dunno. When people decided violence was “mature” and the games got so popular, and there were so many, they had to call them something else. Maybe us Sonic fan-gamers will someday get our own name for our games. SCGs (Speedy Creature Games). I like it.
The only part I still can’t understand, or shove into my brain, is why we can make zero money off something and have people sue us about it. Or even get jailed for it. It’s for the community, not us. Now, using copyrighted content (such as 3D models) that a company is making money off of, THAT is a whole different story. But something non-profit for the community?
