(Warning: 🤓) So uh the actual story of both the original Sonic.exe and the offical remake SONIC 2011 (which you included an image from in the thumbnail but didn’t mention at all) is that a being named X was birthed from “the void”, and is obsessed with humanity and the Sonic franchise (the latter was way more emphasized in the true original in ways you DO NOT want to know). He steals the souls of human victims and takes them to his world where puts them in the vessels of Sonic characters and tortures them in his “games”. While basically none of this is hinted at in the original story, in the remake the character’s names in the bottom left corner change to their real human names a bit before their deaths. The game is still a really long walking simulator though, but this time it has a lore reason in that X is just bad at making games (the creator does admit it’s a fair complaint though). He does have more of a personality though, which you can read more about on the Sonic Oddities wiki. If you do want to play the remake, turn your antivirus off, you’ll see why (it’s not a virus). Just a reminder that some of these games aren’t really meant to be “games” in terms of actual gameplay. Also you should look up “sonic gameplay” and watch the video uploaded by Springless Music.
Unfortunately after checking, I think it’s just a very, very similar scream, you can hear a bit of difference at the end. I wish it was the FNAW3 scream though, that would be hilarious
A 'bit' if a late comment but a game that really deviates from the normal formula of EXE games is called Sonic.EXE: The Disaster. It's an online multiplayer survival game where the goal is to work as a team against EXE and survive until the exit spawns, the game is worked on by a singular person and its honestly very impressive + fun when you really start to get the hang of it. The only downside of the game is that its hosted on Roblox, BUT there is a very hard 2d remake of the game which is also a must try
I like alot of your points, but I think the criticism's to one more round's unwinability are kind of missing the point of the game. the entire point (at least I think) is that it is a play on those unwinnable versions. that's the story. it's different if it's just to be cool, but this is a play on that trope done with high production.
I understand that. In my mind I guess high quality visuals (they are very good to be clear) just don’t make a game, and it was sort of frustrating when I played for like an hour and the game just told me no, it felt sort of primitive like they just forgot to include a victory. But the point is to play off it and I understand that better now. Honestly it is probably my second favorite Sonic.EXE game, I hyperbolized probably a little too much for the flow of the video
Froogy Here's the explanation you was talking about at 7:06 Enjoy: A demonic force came to earth (aka Green hill zone) and the force wanted to eliminate people but he couldn't risk being stopped so he took a look around and saw Sonic, The fast and powerful so the force took over Sonic
I think spirits of hell and whisper of souls are some of the vest games, even though their cutscenes are kinda jank, especially whisper of souls in the translation department. Luckily the gameplay is amazing and also tough af.
First of all : Both of the Spirits Of Hell games are getting a remake Second of all : Remember "Nightmare Beginning"? Well, it's got a sequel (Continued nightmare) that has WAY too much story & lore, a third part (Finished Nightmare) which is a step in the right direction in the gameplay direction of the series, & many animations uploaded in maker's youtube channel, & also Nightmare Beginning is getting a remake In short, it's perefect in cutscenes, story, gameplay,... (the first two can be a little weird but Finished nighamre is pretty good)
Not really, level design is unintuitive and unfair, visuals of the levels are done lazily and most of the time it's either flat floor or just some platforms thrown together with no art direction to speak of, and the story/lore/universe is way too convoluted for its own good. Also I'll never understand why he brought s*x and r*ape of all things into his story :v
To me all these games, even the best ones, have the same problem, they're too in your face. Jumpscare after jumpscare, you just get numb to it. The later games might have better gameplay but I still consider the original to be the creepiest. As dumb as it is, it's somehow the most subtle, which isn't saying much. I've never programmed a game in my life, but if I were making one of these, I'd make it a slow burner. Randomized levels to make the experience more personal, each level getting slowly eerier and eerier, a lot of puzzle elements like rpg horror games, a sense of mystery as you slowly uncover what's happening, lots of quiet moments with no music and a lot of ambience, new enemies that'd be minions of X, similar to Iblis and Mephiles, maybe using assets from other fitting games like Metroid and Castlevania to add some much needed atmosphere and spice up the scenery. If any Sonic.exe developers see this, please contact me! I'm a well of ideas lol!
the sonic exe downplay is approved by a majority of people cause hes mid in writing but if people decided to research sonic exe and realised his feats and abilities they would realise hes op ive tried too explain this to many people but some people just dont listen so there's no point of explaining to them
the thing about sonic.exe games is that there not meant to be played. Most of them are just streamer bait. The highly realistic sprite art? great thumbnail bait! The non gameplay? The streamer plays it so it doesn't really matter.
In my personal opinion-and keep in mind this is coming from a writer and designer in primarily the horror field-we should really stop making remakes of the same game over and over with the same new tropes at this point. Just enjoy the original game even if the story sucks. It's okay to take inspiration from the source material, but when you're just copying and pasting it to your work and saying it's a 'remake', it makes you look unoriginal and devoid of any writing ability. Make your own original games, please. Stop remaking the original fangames over and over until we're all extinct of human life.
ZAMN 😍 who edited this?!?!
Nobody. The video just appeared one day

To me personally, Sonic.EXE one last round is my favourite, I like the aspect of feeling like there is no escape, but I get where you're coming from.
(Warning: 🤓)

This was a good video!
No it wasn’t! GRAAAAHHHHH 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
Agreed
@@froogy666 well I Appreciate your brutal honesty

Hey, isn't the jumpscare sound just a altered version of the jumpscare sound from Five Nights at Wario's 3
Probably 💀
Unfortunately after checking, I think it’s just a very, very similar scream, you can hear a bit of difference at the end. I wish it was the FNAW3 scream though, that would be hilarious
Just wait till pc port fully comes out in 2025 (probably) it will be PEAK (trust me)
i was about to comment about the spirits of hell and then i saw it pop up on screen...
😔.
I’ve been defeated.
?
@@Cvntastrophy how so?
Don't feel too bad
Also just be glad you are first

In spirits of hell it uses a unique exe called exeller who is killing to keep sanity
also whisper of soul is getting a remake

Honestly, I think the Sonic.exe games made by JaizKoys are pretty good too: they can be scary at times and its Sonic.exe has character too

How can you say all sonic.exe games are bad when you never played .eyx or one last round (a remake of one more round)
