Story:Sonic 3D Blast is a 1996 platform video game developed by Traveller's Tales and Sonic Team, and published by Sega for the Genesis, Saturn, and Windows. Part of the Sonic the Hedgehog series, the game abandons previous Sonic games' side-scrolling style in favor of isometric gameplay, making use of some pre-rendered 3D models converted into sprites. The game features creatures known as Flickies, which first appeared in the 1984 arcade game Flicky. Controlling only Sonic himself, the player's goal is to collect Flickies and carry them to safety, periodically sparring with the series antagonist Dr. Robotnik, who is imprisoning them within robots.Show more

I greatly enjoy this game to the point where I do a complete playthrough on original hardware semi-annually. It's a nice comfort game to me and I end up playing it in the now delisted Genesis collection on Steam when I get bored.
It is important to note that there are three distinct versions of this game: Genesis/Mega Drive, Saturn, and Windows 95. The Saturn and Windows 95 versions have different music, better graphics, and completely different special stages than the Genesis Version. It would be nice for the Windows 95 version to release here because GOG is mostly about PC games, this version never gets rereleased, and it wouldn't require a Genesis or Saturn emulator to run.
I grew up with the Sega Genesis version. I ended up owning it a few times through several Sega compilation games. This was among the first 3D Sonic games. They were inspired by Rare doing Donkey Kong Country series. In terms of an 2D platformer with some 3D aspects. Personally you are better off with Vectorman series. I will say the music is decent. The bonus stages are alright just lacking something. You get some rather interesting boss fights with Dr. Robotnik. Sonic must rescue flickies that are small birds trapped inside robots. This is sorta like a more ambitious 3D Flicky game. If you played Flicky you know what I'm talking about. Some levels are frustrating to get through. Considering this was the last Sonic game on Sega Genesis. I actually felt it ended things on a good note. This game often gets overlooked than anything else.
