Trivia / Socket

• Dueling Games: Came out a month before Sonic the Hedgehog CD and largely seems to crib most of its aesthetics and gameplay ideas off of previews of said game.
• Follow the Leader: This is a 2D Platformer released on the Sega Genesis starring a blue Funny Animal with red shoes. He runs at high speeds while collecting shiny yellow things and killing robotic animals. The Big Bad is fought at the end of every level, with a new gimmick each time. And while this is all happening some sweet tunes are playing. Does any of this sound familiar?
• Stillborn Franchise: The full title of the original Japanese version of Socket is Time Dominator First. Don't hold your breath for Time Dominator Second.
