![]() It doesn't help that it helped inspire Infinite, the big villain for Sonic Forces.The screen is noticeably less intimidating in the Japanese and European versions, due to the boss theme in those versions being funky and upbeat rather than disturbing. The notorious "Fun is infinite" screen, with the boss battle music and the repeating creepy Sonics making disturbing expressions in the background. It shows that Robotnik is so evil that he doesn't even care about his own creations and leaves them to rust. Many of them look sad, as if they know how broken they are. Some of them still try to fire weapons that fell off long ago or no longer work. The visibly-decayed and run-down state of the badniks in Bad Futures can also be disturbing, moving slowly and usually missing most of their powers.If Scrap Brain Zone was creepy for looking like a polluted hellscape, this place is what happens if the early days of Robotnik were to get his way: all organic life giving way to technology and destroying all hope and geography to get his way. The American themes are bad enough, while the Japanese themes are a bit more frantic and groovy, but it's practically an endless sea of nothing but machinery, as if you're running through the literal metal layer covering Little Planet and holding it in place. Metallic Madness is kind of an unnerving area, even compared to the rest.On top of that, the instruments on the road are destroyed. Stardust Speedway has an evil red color scheme with lightning flashing in the background.Wacky Workbench has been rusted and rotted beyond repair.What at least looked like water in the past and present has been, you guessed it, pollu- dried out and replaced with more space for machines. Quartz Quadrant has been overmined and has become a dark place with machinery everywhere.Tidal Tempest is dark, the water is polluted (yet again), the plant life is dead, and the pipes are broken. ![]() Collision Chaos looks like a rusty, abandoned amusement park, full of flashing signs with random lines.Palmtree Panic is an environmental disaster! The grass is dead, the trees have been replaced with machinery, and the water is polluted.Every stage in the Bad Future has settings that look like post-apocalyptic hellholes:.
