* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: The sword, compared to the mechanical use of a sword in VideoGame/SonicAndTheBlackKnight - no motion controls aside, this game's use of a sword is ''much'' less gimmicky, being a legitimate utility weapon as well as a compliment to Sonic's regular abilities. Smashing through thin barriers aside, the sword also provides Sonic the ability to do more damage and also damage enemies that either are normally can't be damaged at all by Sonic's spin state or can't be damaged in a specific state, at the cost of being unable to spin in the air and preventing Sonic from using the spin-dash and super peel out moves while the sword is in use. When fully upgraded, the sword is an incredible offensive tool, but Sonic needs to put it away to be more mobile.

* GameBreaker: Level 3 Sword's aerial attack becomes a [[EverythingsBetterWithSpinning spin attack]] that registers multiple hits and chops a boss' HP with no drawbacks. It even makes the aforementioned EGGATS battle less time-consuming.

* AwesomeMoment: [[spoiler: When Eggman manages to take over Sky Empire with the magnetic energy he amassed, the real Dr. Ucano isn't allowing that to continue as he not only shows up right away and leads civilians away from the city, but he unlocks the three power sites in Sky Speedway Zone to let Sonic disable the power supplies run into the city, preventing Eggman from getting any more stronger. Dr. Ucano notes that, by doing so, the Sky Empire, his greatest creation, may slowly plummet to South Lakes due to power failure, [[AngstWhatAngst but he disregards that in favor of the civilization]].]] ''[[ButWaitTheresMore And then]]'', as Sonic races through Sky Speedway Zone, the AwesomeMusic of ''VideoGame/AceCombatZeroTheBelkanWar'' rolls in, all tracks signifying the decisive moment.
** [[spoiler: The final boss uses [[AwesomeMusic "It Has to be This Way"]] from ''VideoGame/MetalGearRisingRevengeance''.]] Enough said.



* MomentOfAwesome: Admit it. The ability to perform a Boost in a Classic-era Sonic game, fan made or not, is pretty badass.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: At one point, you're allowed to play as both Sonic and Gerem by switching between the two, and Gerem pretty much plays like Sonic with his sword. Problem is, there's no one to swing your sword at, [[GuestStarPartyMember and you actually won't play with him for more than one Zone]]. There's also the princess of the Sky Empire that hardly gets much screen time, even being plot-irrelevant at that (she's only mentioned one final time [[spoiler:during a PlotTwist]] that she was too young to rule over Sky Empire).

* NightmareFuel: [[spoiler:You run into Sky Empire, [[NothingIsScarier with no music playing]], a transparent static filter in the screen, and the whole city abandoned and road cones dropped, along with holographic messages of evacuation around the city. Once you reach the end, Dr. Eggman reveals to be the fake Dr. Ucano, and tells how his plans came and will come to frution. Dr. Eggman's plan to take over Sky Empire? ''Override the city with the magnetic mass' darkness''. He disappears in a mass of darkness, and then the city starts to rumble as a red tint appears. Once you escape, the plan's end result is the city covered in a dark dome, with the figure of Eggman's head at the top.]]
