What I like the most is the sense of flow the level has despite being 8 minutes long on a rather speedy playthrough. And even the times your momentum was halted, it never felt unavoidable or cheap. Also, need I say more for the music. Definitely buying Spark 3 day 1.
same, i was in utter awe in how long the level was but so full of things to do and how well everything flowed together. Lake is Truly one of the best to ever do it
I can't believe how clever you were to actually have the distant stuff in the background be places we actually go to in the level. It's such an ingenious use of needing to scale up the size of things, for such a fast character, and it just adds to the hype. I NEED this game in my hands right now, it's so good.
Honestly, most anticipated release of 2022. I've been around since before Spark and I'm SO glad to see that not only have you kept your touch, you've improved in every way. I was just thinking about how the later levels in your games get chaotic, and I'm definitely not disappointed at all. Absolutely expert level design and skill-based gameplay.
I'm just really hoping it's 2022 because the demo came out a year ago with movement and combat that seemed fully done, and he tweeted that he finished making the last level not too long ago. I'm just guessing he doesn't want to be held to an external deadline.

Either way, love what you’re doing man! Thank you for showing this off when you did, it looks exhilarating!
@Jay Talents majority of 3d sanic is hot trash, if official sonic games are just gonna keep disappointing me and not be what I feel a sonic game should play like ya know basically just good controls and level design and fully 3d with zero automation with momentum being a strong focus. If sonic team ain't gonna give me that I'll take my money and go play something that's like sonic but better in everyway in terms of gameplay it's self. For me this is what spark is bringing to the table and is exactly the type of sonic game I've been looking for along with rewarding challenge, enjoy your furry frontiers sonic game. Sonic = 🗑
I eventually want to make my own speed based 3D platfomer with open levels, so seeing the work done for games like this gives me hope cuz this looks so fantastic!
The verticality of this level looks awesome! The way the road is wide enough to run dodging obstacles, the way the road seamlessly turns into a highway and goes full 360 around at high speeds... It just looks really fun! And the obstacles in the lower sections look fun too since there you have lots of freedom to avoid them. Thanks for your job Lake.
Man I was worried that the OST wouldn’t be as good since the old composers weren’t returning but that fear is completely gone after hearing this track, so good! Anybody know who the composer is??
I am way more interested in this game than Sonic Frontiers. This level, whilst quite long, seems like it will be a blast to speedrun and the music in this stage is amazing. Also love the atmosphere and level design here too. Loved the demo and appreciate the gameplay clip!
I cannot ovestate how excited I am for this to come out! I started playing Spark 2 around 2 weeks ago and I've already put 40+ hours into it, gotten all the speed medals, have done every Tour Mode, and on the fast track of gaining 100% completion. The sheer freedom of how to approach the levels (especially with the powerups) combine with the extremely tight level design creating an infinitely replayable experience that I can't put down. Spark 2 is everything I've ever wanted in a video game, and that first 4 hour playthrough will forever be etched into my memory as one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had in my entire life. I really hope that this is the breakout hit for the Spark series. It's hard to see such a masterclass of 3D platformers be so niche when it's up their with the greats in terms of its mechanic and level design. Best of luck Feperd, best of luck.
Man that was amazing Lake! I cant wait to get my hands on this. The railgrinding segments reminded me of Final Rush from Sa2 but much more polished. Especially the balancing mechanic. Adds much more interactivity. Hope youre doing well!
Just wanted to point out how absolutely MASSIVE this is. Look at sonic or mario games. When you have a city level, it's feels like just a couple of square blocks, or something equally as small. At the beginning, for most games, you'd think it's just a set piece to have a giant hole in the level. Here you actually run the entire width of the ring 3 times over and go 3 cities underground in ONE LEVEL
This game easily blows Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 out of the water already, and upon its release, will most likely dominate the market for 3D Sonic platformers for the next decade. The fact that this is also being done by a single man is absolutely incredible. I'm really digging the soundtrack so far as well. Pacific Abyss sounds like if you took Sonic and Shadow's stage themes and mashed them up perfectly. Definitely gonna be boppin' my head to this one for a while
Sonic Team should be embarrassed at how one guy can make a game so much better than any of their recent AAA Sonic games. I'm glad to say that I'm genuinely hyped for Spark 3
Note: Signs at 0:27 state "In case of Jester, seek shelter and alert a force office." Looks like he's breakin' da law. Also bits and checkpoint briefly sync with the music.
Absolutely lovely. I like how long the stage is and I love the location itself to, interesting place in the strange world of the Formies I see the speed cap has also been increased
Damn.. that grind section at the end kept me on the edge of my seat just from the speed, the height, and the music setting that badass vibe. Love this game and cant wait for it to release
From a spiritual successor viewpoint, this has everything I wanted from a new Sonic game in the last decade. I’ll take this over Frontiers any day. The moment Spark 3 comes out, it will be a straight up snag and my personal game of the year. Edit: With both games being out now, I can confirm I had tons of fun with the two and definitely feel bad for dunking on Frontiers lol
Lake, this is astounding!!! Everything looks so crisp and polished. These environments are so humongous that it's hard to believe that this game was only developed by 1 man. Already impressed by the work that went into this and I hope you had fun developing it. Spark will soon come into his own. Make a Spark and Fark plushie to sell after you get the spark series released on consoles (throwing you an idea)
If people in the 90s saw this after playing the mess that was the Mega Man DOS games there’s no way that they would believe that one person did this and it’s just incredible to see how far we’ve come
Personally, I think 9 minutes of 1 act of action stage is non-ideal. When 06 (for all its faults) had 10-minute stages, it split them into four acts, including a different character. 9 minutes of straight running is too much
@@waytoobiased I think having about 10 minutes in 1 act is perfectly fine to me, as long as it's not filled with dumb and tedious gimmicks (Werehog in Unleashed, for example). I mean who wants to pay 60 bucks for a AAA title that lasts only about 2 hours, that's ridiculous!
This looks so amazing, the level design, the music, the gameplay, everything looks just as good as it did in the first demo I played. Congrats on the dev team for such an amazing job throughout the Spark games!
Looks incredible, I cannot wait to get my hands on this on my Series X. Spark 2 is one of my favorite games in years and this looks even better. Keep up the great work! My most anticipated game bar none!
@@aggromango534 Hopefully. Xbox was the only console to get a Spark 2 port because MS was the least difficult/demanding to work with. I was so happy because I don't have a gaming PC and Xbox gets ignored/skipped constantly even for multiplats. It was a rare Xbox W lol.
I just want to thank you for making this. It's become one of my favorite games. The level of creativity, sense of speed, and high skill ceiling makes for an unforgettable experience.
Spark the Electric Jester 3 has literally every single thing Sonic fans have wanted to see for 16 years. And instead of going to play that or going to wait for that, Sonic fans would rather waste all their time and energy waiting for Sonic Frontiers footage that they already know they're gonna hate. Guys...., guys, alternatives exist. Guys, you have the option to play good games instead. Guys-... Guys just LOOK at this for a second- It is LITERALLY SONIC ADVENTURE 3, but with a BETTER VERSION of the PARKOUR FROM LOST WORLD. WHY ISN'T ANYONE LOOKING AT THIS!? DON'T LOOK AT FRONTIERS, LOOK AT THIS.
The thing I'm most impressed with is how damn smooth and slick the camera is. Specifically in the large tube segments. Most games, and yes Sonic too, just kinda freak the hell out during segments like that.
I’ve seen a lot of people in this comments section dunk on SEGA, and I can understand why. This is better than anything Sonic related that SEGA has put out in the past 10 years.
I’m new, and this looks sooooo fire man. The levels of details, the music, and the gameplay is mind blowing bro. Will definitely play this as well as your older titles as soon as I can
The high-speed sections seem much more involved now! Spark 2's equivalent sections could sometimes feel quite automated a la Sonic Adventure 2, where the player isn't required to input much. Big improvement this time round. Already really enjoyed the demo, but looking at this level has made me quite excited! Edit: A wee note: I love the mechanic of using the rings to slow your descent, but the camera whipping up with them mid-fall is a little jarring. Is it possible to reduce camera motion there?
The amount of control you have is fascinating. And with constant action this video even felt short to me. There being different "areas" to the level looks fun as hell. No restriction like "you took the left path, no going back now", run anywhere you like. I hope more people will experience this.
Imagine playing a game where hitting a speed boost on the ground makes it so the speed doesn't just disappear seconds later, but is maintained as you move forward and you can get even faster than that through other means. A game with amazing and visually interesting level design with multiple paths, multiple powers and a comprehensive move-set and a rocking soundtrack to boot. Honestly ashamed of what we just seen from Sega in comparison, especially since they're supposed to be a AAA dev team, but I'm now definitely looking forward to this game a lot more!
I wouldn't even call them a AAA dev team. Their quality of games has been much lower over the years and they keep making bad decisions during development. There's a strange pattern with how they've been developung and releasing sonic games lately and it's always a red flag that it will be a huge letdown.
@@solblackguy, well except for Iizuka. But you all hate him and want him fired for having bad publicity or something. And Jun, that guy’s still around.
This is what Sonic Frontiers actions stages should be like and need to be played. Immersive speed, challenging levels, tight platforming, engaging ost, etc.
I keep coming back to this vid. Love the stage and the way Spark traverses it (love the new mechanics BTW!) And THAT BGM! Man I wish the audio was uploaded here! Every song on the demo is here but this one because it's not on the demo! Dang! But I digress! From the looks of things, we seem to be witnessing either Spark escaping from the Fark Force or infiltrating the Fark Force. Will be interesting to see!
I just want to say that I have been eagerly waiting for the release of this game and the more I look at previews, the more excited I've been getting about this game. The variety in level designs has been a treat to see. Esoecially with the spectacle shots I'm seeing in this trailer (basically, that long windy trip towards the bottom of the building structure was a really cool setpiece.) One thing that thoroughly surprised me was the sudden change in combat to make it more robust. For me it's a very welcomed change since I'm a big fan of action oriented gameplay. I cannot wait to see the final product because I know for a fact that it'll blow my expectations out the water.
Daaaamn this game looks so cool While I'll refrain from being toxic by comparing it to Frontiers like everyone else, the momentum looks absolutely stellar and lots of fun to mess around with, and the level design compliments that perfectly
This is what modern Sonic games should be like. Honestly, you could replace the assets with Sonic ones and call it SA3, and I'd be totally fine with it. It's such a perfect evolution of that formula. I tried the demo last night and it was incredible. Day 1 buy whenever it comes out.
This is very impressive, it all looks and sounds so good. I've had the Spark games on my Steam wishlist for a couple years and will definitely give them a try now.
For a second I was about to fall asleep, but I saw the live show in its entirety and I must say... it was.... THE LIVE LIVE IS INCREDIBLE!! I loved! can't wait for the release!
My dude…where is your patron? Because This looks absolutely Incredible. & it looks Sooo Fun. You literally put so much into this game & things that I’ve always wanted to see in my normal sonic game💙. Momentum, Combat, etc. Take Your Time with this game bro. & I promise it will masterpiece.
This whole Sparks series needs more love. It's always a good setup, when there are parts to speed through and parts where platforming is required and the player knows it.
As a person who's a bit terrified of exhilarating speeds, falling or heights, I love the fact that this game literally gives me that exact feeling of going so fast. Although I don't have money myself, I will do everything in my power to get this game when it comes out.
@@muhammedraashid3667 idk man holding a button to go fast just doesn’t feel the same and even then its not nearly as fast as some of the sections in this gameplay preview the Boost games also feel very automated at points
@@jess648 Which boost games? Sonic unleashed and Sonic Generations do have automated sections mostly for spectacle reason but so do this game. Otherwise the control is perfectly in your hands. Also you boost in this game similar to sonic boosting by pressing a button. How's that any different?! Sonic unleashed goes way faster than this game ever did.
Oh man this is how Sonic needs to be. I'm definitely getting this over Frontiers. Sega And Sonic Teams pathetic excuses to not make an Adventure style game is BS...They also canceled the Remake. I'm literally to the point where i don't want Sega and Sonic Team to even touch the Adventure games anymore.
I would say its good that they didn't remake the adventure series after the failures they have been making with the marketing lately for both sonic frontiers and origins
There's already a lot of comparisons between this and the newest sonic game, but you know the biggest difference from their gameplay trailers? For this I'm NOT thinking "oof this looks rough, maybe it should be delayed", I'm thinking "This looks awesome! I cannot wait to play it!!"
@@deedoubs yeah because this game has fall damage now. Its pretty easy to cancel though so im hoping these gravity rings(?) are gone for the higher platforming difficulty settings.
I know this is such a small detail, but I love that Lake actually gave the city a GROUND. Like..... it's not just a black pit (which from a game dev perspective, I know why that's done so often in platformers). But he actually put in the time to do that.... the lighting, ambient occlusion, the lighting, the textures...... so much love put into this. I can't wait for this to drop.
Me looking at this game that i never got the time to see it properly Speed ✓ Speeeeed ✓ Speed boosters + speed = SPEED OF SOUND ✓✓✓✓✓✓✓✓ Level design ✓✓✓✓✓✓ Music ✓✓✓✓✓✓✓✓ good ASF it's actually a bop Wall running?!? ✓✓✓✓ Expectations of this beautiful game, insane and I'm looking forward to play it.

Such a meaty and fun looking level! I can't imagine the amount of time and effort to design that.
The wall running and tube sections look stellar
And that’s just the main path! Its crazy how much bigger the stage seems when you start hunting for exploration medals
Honestly, most anticipated release of 2022. I've been around since before Spark and I'm SO glad to see that not only have you kept your touch, you've improved in every way. I was just thinking about how the later levels in your games get chaotic, and I'm definitely not disappointed at all. Absolutely expert level design and skill-based gameplay.
Could not agree more but the fact that we haven't gotten a date yet means this is probably 2023
probably 2023

I love the length of the stage.
Feels like an adventure getting from the begining to the end.

I kind of agree. But it's also a good idea to put forth your best stuff when trying to show something to people
I love how vast and deep this city stage is, it really gives it some spectacle.

Looks great. Keep up the great work. Amazing level design and music as always
This is what Sonic Frontiers actions stages should be like and need to be played. Immersive speed, challenging levels, tight platforming, engaging ost, etc.
I keep coming back to this vid. Love the stage and the way Spark traverses it (love the new mechanics BTW!) And THAT BGM! Man I wish the audio was uploaded here! Every song on the demo is here but this one because it's not on the demo! Dang! But I digress! From the looks of things, we seem to be witnessing either Spark escaping from the Fark Force or infiltrating the Fark Force. Will be interesting to see!
I just want to say that I have been eagerly waiting for the release of this game and the more I look at previews, the more excited I've been getting about this game.
The variety in level designs has been a treat to see. Esoecially with the spectacle shots I'm seeing in this trailer (basically, that long windy trip towards the bottom of the building structure was a really cool setpiece.)
One thing that thoroughly surprised me was the sudden change in combat to make it more robust. For me it's a very welcomed change since I'm a big fan of action oriented gameplay. I cannot wait to see the final product because I know for a fact that it'll blow my expectations out the water.
the action, the speed, the momentum, the MUSIC, all of what i saw was just amazing
What's ironic is this has a more Sonic feel than Sonic does nowadays.
From all your Sonic fan games I like nothing can break 1st Place than Spark the Electric Jester!
It’s just too amazing for me! 🤩😎
3:33 Spark gets high lmfao
Daaaamn this game looks so cool
While I'll refrain from being toxic by comparing it to Frontiers like everyone else, the momentum looks absolutely stellar and lots of fun to mess around with, and the level design compliments that perfectly
^
This is what modern Sonic games should be like. Honestly, you could replace the assets with Sonic ones and call it SA3, and I'd be totally fine with it. It's such a perfect evolution of that formula. I tried the demo last night and it was incredible. Day 1 buy whenever it comes out.
Twitter brought me here.
I'm now intrigued by this game and I subscribed to your channel. 😎👍
Love your first two games! People on my channel love your game.
This is very impressive, it all looks and sounds so good. I've had the Spark games on my Steam wishlist for a couple years and will definitely give them a try now.
For a second I was about to fall asleep, but I saw the live show in its entirety and I must say... it was.... THE LIVE LIVE IS INCREDIBLE!! I loved! can't wait for the release!
Man does this look fun, I can’t wait to play it on consoles
It's looking like my criticisms of Spark 2's gameplay are definitely being addressed in 3, consider me interested.
This stage has such an incredible sense of scale and speed. Didn't think I could be more stoked for this game!
You are so freaking talented, I can't wait to get my hands on this!
4:43 woah these actually did something in a platformer for once lol
My dude…where is your patron? Because This looks absolutely Incredible. & it looks Sooo Fun. You literally put so much into this game & things that I’ve always wanted to see in my normal sonic game💙. Momentum, Combat, etc. Take Your Time with this game bro. & I promise it will masterpiece.
Don't fuck with this Jester!
- Spark probably
Love the mechanical depth thats been achieved here. Hell its more triple A than what sonic seems to be throwing. Day 1 purchase right here
I’m amazed I hadn’t heard about this game until just the other day. It deserves so much recognition.
I just love the music and the way the level looks. Awesome job 👍
nice to see more fan inspired game i can tell lots of effort when into this keep up this astonishing work.
Same
Absolutely amazing, every second of gameplay looks incredible.
I have 6 hours in the demo on steam just replaying the same levels over again. Its probably the most fun 3d platformer ive ever played
This whole Sparks series needs more love.
It's always a good setup, when there are parts to speed through and parts where platforming is required and the player knows it.
As a person who's a bit terrified of exhilarating speeds, falling or heights, I love the fact that this game literally gives me that exact feeling of going so fast. Although I don't have money myself, I will do everything in my power to get this game when it comes out.
That was exhilarating. This looks pretty much ready for Steam this year and I'm guessing consoles will be 2023. Can't wait.
very few games let loose and just let you reach insane speeds like this
I don’t even remember the adventure era Sonic games being that fast
Sonic unleashed?
Sonic Generations?
@@muhammedraashid3667 idk man holding a button to go fast just doesn’t feel the same and even then its not nearly as fast as some of the sections in this gameplay preview
the Boost games also feel very automated at points
@@jess648 Which boost games?
Sonic unleashed and Sonic Generations do have automated sections mostly for spectacle reason but so do this game. Otherwise the control is perfectly in your hands.
Also you boost in this game similar to sonic boosting by pressing a button. How's that any different?!
Sonic unleashed goes way faster than this game ever did.
Oh man this is how Sonic needs to be. I'm definitely getting this over Frontiers. Sega And Sonic Teams pathetic excuses to not make an Adventure style game is BS...They also canceled the Remake. I'm literally to the point where i don't want Sega and Sonic Team to even touch the Adventure games anymore.
I would say its good that they didn't remake the adventure series after the failures they have been making with the marketing lately for both sonic frontiers and origins
It seems, Felipe will do something really good with Spark now. I intrigued.
There's already a lot of comparisons between this and the newest sonic game, but you know the biggest difference from their gameplay trailers?
For this I'm NOT thinking "oof this looks rough, maybe it should be delayed", I'm thinking "This looks awesome! I cannot wait to play it!!"
I love how fluid this looks. My only gripe is how the downward dash circles reset your downward camera angle.
Still has a better camera than most Sonic Games.
Those weren't dash circles, they were sort of the opposite of that... like brakes.
@@siraxolot4262 most? try all of them.
@@deedoubs yeah because this game has fall damage now. Its pretty easy to cancel though so im hoping these gravity rings(?) are gone for the higher platforming difficulty settings.
Good news, he fixed it by the time the game released!
What a charming little fellow he is! This looks very good!
Wow the sense of speed in this is so exhilarating! its like the SA2 formula perfected! If only I had a PC to play 😩
I know this is such a small detail, but I love that Lake actually gave the city a GROUND. Like..... it's not just a black pit (which from a game dev perspective, I know why that's done so often in platformers). But he actually put in the time to do that.... the lighting, ambient occlusion, the lighting, the textures...... so much love put into this. I can't wait for this to drop.
Not only is there ground, you can run around on it too
I don't have my Steam Deck yet, but I'm so excited at the thought of playing Spark 3 on it. This looks incredible and I can't wait to play!
I'm in love with all have we seen about Spark 3, I really hope the game achieve success, thanks Lake
Awesome work! I cannot wait to get this game on launch.
Me looking at this game that i never got the time to see it properly
