Well sorry for the outburst, your not a moron, but how do you like any water level in Sonic?

As a kid, I had a fear of drowning and the concept of such in a video game got my attention at the time. Other games would just have you die by touching any water, but Sonic demonstrated the actual necessity for oxygen. I found it encompassing. What can I say?

What you already said

Although it's certainly not my favorite*, I didn't hate it, and I think Moz has a good point. The way the water level was (well) implemented in Sonic 1 was relatively novel (I won't say it was the first game, because it probably wasn't - NES Megaman games probably had this, no?). Instead of going into a "swimming mode" like in Mario (or, IIRC, Alex Kidd) you moved as in land only with more resistance / jumping higher - and it may have been the first to have the "oxygen" thing, whereas Mario seems to have gills (I'm not saying Sonic is realistic, how can he keep his feet on the bottom all the time?)

* I haven't voted because I don't remember the stages very well - I should replay it one of these days.

Nah, there's no drowning in the Megaman games.

I know Megaman doesn't drown, I meant just the fact that you walk on the bottom but jump higher (instead of going into "swim mode" - mode which is often not that well implemented and sort of unplayable because it only occurs on a small % of the game so the devs didn't bother).

i didnt i voted for spring yard.

[deathred]

its funny how green hill zone is getting the most votes... im guessing cause its the first level and many probably didnt get past that.... or dont remember anything after that at all.

[raztat]

I voted Green Hill Zone, I dont remember past marble zone except for the water zone which I always hated.
