Sonic Adventure Y

Sonic Adventure Y (working name) is the name of a collab project between Toroko and Laughball Interactive. It is styled after the Adventure-style era of games, albeit with some modern touches. The game will be exclusive on The V².
==Gameplay==
Sonic Adventure Y is a similar game to its predecessors, a platformer with expansive levels, unique characters, and collectable upgrades throughout the game. The player controls 14 characters over the course 7 stories - seven main characters with their own stories and seven secondary characters who appear sporadically. There are 14 levels (not counting the three hub worlds players access Zones through) with 3 Acts each; the first is a 3D level in the style of the Adventure games, the second is a 2D section similar to those found in Sonic Generations, and the third is a boss fight (typically in 3D gameplay). No story gets every level, and each has paths that can only be accessed by certain characters.
Every character shares the same basic abilities to run, jump, and grind on rails, but their differences lie in how fast they can move, how they deal with enemies, and their unique abilities like Sonic's Spin Dash or Hydro's swimming strokes. Each character can also collect upgrades as they go, such as Sonic's Light Speed Dash. The goal is always to reach the end of the Zone, fighting a boss in the third Act, but some characters like Tails have different challenges along the way, like puzzles.
Also returning from the Sonic Adventure games is the Chao Garden, with three locations accessible through the hub worlds. The Chao raising system builds on Sonic Adventure 2's, although with some modifications to suit Sonic Adventure Y.

Character	Info
Sonic 	
The blue blur himself, Sonic is back for yet another high-speed adventure, with his sharp wit and some classic skills. Sonic can use the Spin Dash, the Homing Attack, and even the Light Speed Dash as an upgrade. His story is good for beginners in terms of difficulty, featuring your average level of challenges.
Tails 	
Tails is out of the mech and uses his mechanic skills to solve puzzles and create contraptions for his levels. In many of his levels, the player can do either a easy puzzle to progress to the next intended part of the stage or take on a harder one that skips some of the level, acting as a shortcut.
Knuckles 	
Tougher than leather, Knuckles is on a hunt for the Chaos Emeralds after a mysterious encounter with a new foe. He may be a tad bit slower than Sonic, but Knuckles can glide slowly, climb rock walls, and fight his way through enemies with moves like his Spiral Upper.
Shadow 	
Known as the Ultimate Lifeform, Shadow has little memory of his past, and the hunt for answers has made him cross paths with Sonic over the years, as a friend and a foe. Shadow has fast-paced gameplay like Sonic's, with the addition of a weapon system, allowing him to take down enemies with a homing gun.
Rouge 	
Rouge is a agent of GUN (or at least, she says she is...) and the mysterious villain is what she's tracking. Her levels are exploration based and using her strong legs, the player can travel across walls and ceilings of levels. She can also glide and use a powerful jump kick to attack enemies.
Espio 	
Taking more of a main character role than he has in the past, Espio seems to be connected to the main villain in some unknown way. His levels are flooded with enemies, but he has abilities and moves to keep up his momentum and speed by chaining enemies together in battle.
Hydro 	
Hydro the Lobster is a new character introduced in this grand adventure. His stage take place underwater, but act similar to everyone else's stages with the exception of being able to swim strokes forward while in the "air". He uses his mighty claws to do powerful punches and strong grabs.
===Secondary===
Appear in other characters story modes and are based off the main characters in terms of gameplay, mostly being reskins of the main 7.
Character 	Info
Metal Sonic 	
Metal Sonic is of Dr. Eggman's finest creations, a cunning robot who can go toe-to-toe with Sonic time after time. It seems like this time, he's working on his own reasons after his latest reactivation. Metal Sonic shares his playstyle with Sonic, with cosmetic differences like using the Super Peel Out instead of the Spin Dash.
EggroboArt by E-122-Psi	
This mysterious model of Badnik was first deployed back when Sonic met Knuckles, and is quite often high up on the chain of command. This one is no different, appointed by Eggman himself to get involved. His playstyle is based off Tails, with his flight meter displayed as a fuel gauge.
Omega 	
E-123 Omega is the latest and perhaps strongest creation in the E-100 series, a violent robot who seeks to get revenge on Eggman and prove himself as the doctor's greatest creation. He is essentially a reskin of Knuckles, gliding using his jets and fighting with his massive claws.
Blaze 	
Blaze is royalty from another dimension, and the appointed guardian of her world's Emeralds. She's uptight sometimes but tends to be calm and level-headed, and she's definitely proven herself as being as capable as Sonic. Blaze's playstyle is based off Shadow's, although she uses pyrokinesis instead of a gun.
ZeenaArt by ZeroR102 	
One of the Deadly Six that Sonic fought not too long ago, Zeena is a self-centered cruel fighter who seems to lack motivation until given a reason she sees fit to fight for. Whatever it was that gave her a reason this time, she's joined the adventure for her own gain. Her playstyle is nearly identical to Rouge's.
Amy 	
Infamous for her dedication to Sonic, Amy Rose has gone to some pretty extreme measures in the past to see her unrequited crush, and has learned to fight hard enough to keep up with him. Her gameplay is based on Espio's, although she utilizes her Piko Piko Hammer in place of his attacks.

===Main===
Image + Name	Info
OMELET ONSLAUGHT	
Dr. Eggman's latest fortress, a giant airship built from salvaged pieces of past bases and battleships. Act One is set on the upper decks; Sonic has a clear path to run through, taking down enemies stationed at the ship's cannons, but Rouge and Tails have to work their way along the side of the ship. Act Two is fairly basic platforming through the ship's internal structures, taking out the engines to finish off the Act.
----
BOSS: EGG ADMIRAL
A giant humanoid robot resembling a ship's captain, built into the warship itself from the waist down. Players must find a way up its giant arms, like Sonic's Homing Attack or having Rouge walk along nearby control towers, and shut down its sweeping attacks while dodging missile barrages.
TIDAL STATION	
The battle against Perfect Chaos was disastrous for Station Square, but years of rebuilding have led to it becoming a uniquely built city on the sea. Act One is one of the most expansive levels in the game - Sonic and Knuckles traverse construction equipment and unique buildings while Hydro and Ego fight through an huge underwater section the other two can't fully explore. Act Two features strong currents and dangerous enemies, making it a fast-paced run through the coral reefs that have developed on underwater ruins.
----
BOSS: EGG ORCA
Taking a cue from the natural wildlife, Eggman built a robotic orca as a potential weapon, but mysterious circumstances have let it loose and out of his control. Sonic and Knuckles have to jump from rooftop to rooftop, detaching the three segments of its body, while Hydro has to throw nearby enemies to attack the boss.

==Trivia==
*The Y in the title is meant to represent a 3, as a Y has three points extending out.
*Amy was highly considered to be cut in the early stages as neither Exotoro or Pablo like her. She was kept mostly due to her relevance. 
*Ego was originally a piece of living seaweed.
*Several levels throughout the game feature ties to past games in small ways, to establish a better sense of continuity between games.
**Omelet Onslaught features pieces from past levels, such as generators from Flying Battery Zone and a similar chassis to the Egg Carrier.
**Tidal Station is explictly the flooded remains of Station Square from Sonic Adventure, and its music is an instrumental upbeat jazz rendition of Open Your Heart from the Perfect Chaos boss battle.
