Dr. Robotnik's Ring Racers: Custom Sealed Stars/Special Stages

Hello. In this video, I will be playing some custom special stages from fanpacks of Dr Robotnik's Ring Racers. These are very clever and I hope more of the modding community make more sealed stars. Onto the courses themselves:
Boulevard: 0:00
From the Ruber Pack created by Ruberjib, Boulevard was designed intentionally to be very easy and it shows. A long straightway towards the exit, there is no shortage of zippers and items to attack the UFO catcher.

Database: 1:10
From the Pro Pack X created by TheTrueEpicPro, Database is actually based on the song it used, Database from Sonic Frontiers. The actual special stage is a giant castle where you have to catch the emerald before it leaves the palace. Not really hard to lose or die in this place, but keep vigilant

Garden: 3:34
The following 4 special stages are from the Super Mario Kart pack created by Piksqu. The first one being Garden. As the special stage for the Mushroom Cup, Garden is easy. In this long windy special stage of a wonderful garden, the only challenge is making sure you keep path on the roundabouts and not fall into the river. Sidenote, none of the following will play the "Emerald Get" song when you catch the Emerald. I hope Piksqu fixes that.
Slide: 5:57
Betraying its place in the Flower Cup, Slide is actually the toughest the sealed star in the pack. Based on the slide course from Mario 64, every hit on the UFO catcher counts, especially during Time Attack where damage carry over. However, what works against you is that Slide is a very short stage and if you don't keep your ring counter up, good luck catching the Emerald on the final stretch
Block: 7:00
The Star Cup's special stage, Block is a nagivational sprint to keep up. The catcher gets a very large headstart at the beginning. There are shortcuts but they have their pros and cons. Do you use the shortcuts to make it easier to catch up at the cost of less time to complete? Or do you stay the path where items will be harder to aim on the sloped corners, but you get more items at least? Either way, eventaully you'll have to traverse the parcurious blocks to reach the end
Broken Spectrum: 8:21
The Special Cup's special stage and the only one without a one word name, Broken Spectrum lives up to it. Taking place on a rainbow road, the UFO catcher loves to fly over pits where your items can't hit it. However, you're given a hefty amount of item boxes so you can go all out. Watch out for the 90 degree corners and the homestretch after the spring

Cool to see people making custom special stages and exploring their thematic potential.
Also, hey, cool to see Metal Tails here as well! I'm good friends with the guy who made it.
