By dying on your last life near the rightmost of the screen, Sonic will warp to the center and die again, but this will cause the lives to underflow from 0 to 255 lives.For example, it is possible to bypass the Bag Worm gates in Toxic Caves by grabbing onto the ledge. Good Bad Bugs: The game's infamously loose physics can be used to your advantage to clip into different areas.Goddamned Bats: The badniks in this game can't hurt Sonic but that doesn't mean they can't throw him off course.Funny Moments: One of the "did you know" facts in this game's "Museum" section in Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection is unusually snarky: "A Pinball Defense System, Robotnik? That was your big idea to stop Sonic? Really?".
Fake Difficulty: The game's clunky physics turn what would otherwise be an enjoyable pinball game featuring Sonic into a frustrating chore.Catharsis Factor: By the time you reach Robotnik, you'll be more than relishing the opportunity to dunk him into that sinking volcano he's trying to escape from.Even among pinball enthusiasts, there's a divide on whether this is a good pinball game or not, thanks to certain mechanics of the game feeling too luck-based rather than skill-based. Some see it as a fun pinball-based spin-off that fleshes out the pinball zones of the main series, while others find it a gimmicky, luck based mess of a game. Whether or not you'll enjoy Spinball all depends on how you feel about the pinball zones in the main series. Interestingly enough, one that shows the broken base happened long before the Adventure games. Broken Base: It IS a Sonic game after all.followed right thereafter by a Difficulty Spike up the Ro-butt-nik called "The Showdown". The Veg-O-Machine itself also turns out to be a Breather Boss. It's big and labyrinthine, but there are only two places to die (the twin drains at the bottom), so you can more or less relax and take your time. Breather Level: The Machine, ironically.In Showdown, the game's harsh instrumentation actually works really well, as it's an industrial/metal tune that perfectly fits the grimy technological theme of the level.Showdown, the final stage, is particularly bad with this tr- BUST BLOCKS FIRST!.To make progress in Lava Powerhouse, you need to BUST DOOR FIRST or BUST CORK FIRST.Welcome to the first level, Toxic Caves! CLUCK ALERT!.The game likes to constantly remind you of your objectives if you keep hitting the wrong targets.Alternative Character Interpretation: Is Robotnik an idiot for creating the Pinball Defense System, or is it because he wants to watch Sonic squirm? Or both?.
