After this pseudo-jumpscare, I was taken to a Sonic 3-esque save select, but the background consisted in the red clouds from Stardust Speedway's bad future, there were only 3 save files and the level preview image was just red static for all of them. Something else that called my attention was that Dr. Robotnik was one of the playable characters along with Tails and Knuckles. Unfortunately, Knuckles and Robotnik were still locked, so I picked Tails's file first. The game froze for a bit and, for some odd reason, I heard Kefka from Final Fantasy VI laughing. Sadly, Kefka himself was nowhere to be seen. Missed opportunity, if you ask me.
