Freedom Planet separates itself from the games it draws inspiration from through its pure sense of freedom. Each have their own unique abilities, like Lilac’s ability to air dash and Carol’s ability to climb walls. Three characters are available to soar through the levels – Lilac the Dragon, Carol the Wildcat or Bissa the Basset Hound. Massive levels lend themselves to a perfect balance of speed, exploration and combat.
While the design and fundamental gameplay of Freedom Planet is still clearly inspired by the Sega Genesis classic, I personally believe that this platformer deserves to be celebrated for being a great game in its own right. Originally created as a Sonic fan game, it evolved into its own project with a unique cast of characters.
When Freedom Planet was released in 2014, many reviewers (including Nintendo World Report) coined it as the next great Sonic the Hedgehog game.
