Something that confused me while I was preparing this video, and I did look it up to confirm: despite having beaten Rooftop Run Act 1 Night - which should unlock further Night Acts - I didn't find any last time. Because there aren't any for some reason, despite Spagonia being a "big" world with 3 Day Acts. Weird!
(discounting DLC of course)
Anyway, I also did a weird level kinda perfectly first try so that's cool. We're now caught up with your votes from last time and in another round of votes...which happen to be going to be tackled in the order I show off level locations today. Convenient!

Sonic Unleashed was released in 2008 for XBox360 and PS3. Its ambitious engine struggled to perform well on both consoles, with the former being locked to 30 fps and the latter uncapped, but rarely reaching high values. Only ten years after its release, with being made available on XBox One, could the game reach its potential. And now, there is a fanmade PC port for people who don't own that console!
This is where you can get it: https://github.com/hedge-dev/UnleashedRecomp
You will need legally obtained files from both the game (360 version) and your console. I do own both.
I am going to show off Sonic Unleashed playing this PC port, because I really like the game, warts and were and all. It is really difficult to be optimal at Sonic Unleashed (both from a gameplay and a collecting all things perspective) and the game auto-saves, so I will approach this a bit more casually. I will make some mistakes and miss some things, at least at first. I do think that I'm competent enough to present this game in its best light and shadow - I hope you have fun with me!
