This will not be surprising to anyone who has actually played Freedom Planet, but over time, creator Stephen “Strife” DiDuro decided that remaining too closely affiliated with Sonic would hold the game back. The most recent game where this has happened to me is GalaxyTrail’s Freedom Planet, quite possibly one of the finest video games I have ever played.įreedom Planet first came out for Windows PC in 2014, and there’s quite an interesting story behind it: it began life as a Sonic the Hedgehogfangame.

This may not happen often, but when it does, it really leaves an impression on you. Sometimes, however, “the good” is so blatantly obvious that you can’t help but be taken aback by it somewhat. Longstanding readers will know that here on MoeGamer, I dislike focusing on negativity rather, I much prefer to make a specific effort to try and “find the good” in games, particularly those that have had a rough deal from the mainstream press or community.
