Then you play through the remixed levels with the extra ability of being to switch from Sonic to your new friend and back again at will. Mighty and Ray show up in the new Encore Mode, which slightly remixes the existing Sonic Mania levels and adds a short re-imagining of the Angel Island Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog 3, where the player has to pick either Mighty or Ray at the end of it. I personally couldn’t get him to glide for more than a few moments before I crashed him back down to the surface. Ray could theoretically make it through an entire level without ever touching the ground, though he is entirely vulnerable to whatever enemies decide to smack him. You have to push back and forward on the d-pad or left analog stick so that he swoops up and down. Ray has the Air Glide that lets him glide across pretty much an entire level, though his gliding takes some getting used to.
Mighty has the Hammer Drop that allows him to break through certain areas in a level, and he’s immune to spikes. Both characters play quite similarly to Sonic, but have their own powers that help them traverse across levels in different ways. First, the two new characters: Mighty the Armadillo and Ray the Flying Squirrel. Sonic Mania Plus doesn’t add too many new things, but what it does add is great. Okay, now that that’s done with, let’s talk about the new stuff. It’s filled with five new levels and eight remixed classic levels from Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Sonic & Knuckles, and Sonic CD, and uses the same 16-bit graphics you remember from your youth (or you remember your parents talking about from their youth). It is fast and fun, and exactly like the original 2D Sonic games you remember from the Sega Genesis (or Mega Drive). Sonic Mania is fantastic, and you should all be playing it on whatever platform you prefer.
