Shadow the Hedgehog 2

Shadow the Hedgehog 2 is a 3D platforming/third-person shooter for the Nintendo Flow developed by Electrosheep Studios and published by SEGA. It is the sequel to the original Shadow the Hedgehog game from the Nintendo GameCube and generally improves upon the original's gameplay within levels alongside overhauling the tediousness of the original's split paths.
The game follows Shadow the Hedgehog working with the remnants of G.U.N. after the events of Sonic Forces as he takes down Eggman Empire holdouts led by an evil alternate universe counterpart of Maria Robotnik. Seeing this broken version of Maria causes him to question his life; fighting with whether he should push past his feelings to take her down and move on, or succumb to the urge to save her broken life.
==Gameplay==
At a base level, Shadow the Hedgehog 2 follows similarly to the original as it is heavily based upon the Sonic Adventure series style of gameplay, though with a bit more emphasis on speed and the removal of the lives system. Shadow can jump, perform a spin dash, and use a homing attack to defeat enemies and picking up 100 rings will lead to brief invincibility for a short time.
Weapons return as well, however they are readjusted to act more like temporary power-ups with set ammo- in which the weapon is discarded and cannot be picked up again. Ammo packs are found around levels that refill ammo in weapons, however they do not work on weapons that have already been depleted and only impact a currently held weapon. Only one weapon can be held at a time, but they can be dropped in favor of a different weapon if one is found. The dropped weapon, if not empty, will still be equippable if the player changes their mind. Weapons also no longer resemble real world guns with some minor exceptions. Vehicles, however, do not come back from the original game.
Outside of basic gameplay, each level also has individual missions that Shadow can complete to go down specific routes which alter the story dramatically. Yet these missions are not exclusively "defeat X amount of this enemy", and in fact there are only a handful of those types of missions- most of which are focused around defeating a small amount of mini-bosses rather than numerous normal enemies. 
==Main Characters==
Image	Name 	Description
 	Shadow the Hedgehog 	The main protagonist. Shadow works with G.U.N. after making amends with them a few years ago and is now hunting down the last holdouts of the Eggman Empire following it's defeat by the Resistance.
TBA 	Maria Robotnik δ 	The main antagonist. She has taken up the moniker of Virrolein as a result of her heavy focus in biology and virology, using biological monsters against her enemies. As a result of a colder relationship with her Shadow and the pity of one GUN soldier, she survived the ARK attack and grew resentful of the world around her.
 	Commander Tower 	Shadow's boss (on paper only, of course) and the leader of the G.U.N. Remnant that helps Shadow in guiding him on his missions while on a neutral or good route.
TBA 	Sonic the Hedgehog δ	The alternate, and somewhat younger and rather odd looking, version of Sonic whose main nemesis is the dreaded Virrolein whom he fights on the regular. Yet when he realizes his nemesis has been missing for far too long, he investigates to find she's teamed up with Eggman in this universe.
 	Dr. Eggman 	Though mainly present through screens and voice calls in cutscenes, Eggman still plays a major role in the story because- well- how could he pass up an offer to mentally torture his second biggest nuisance?
