What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Sonic the Hedgehog: Game Gear version (PS4)

November 15th, 2025

I'm still so sleepy tonight! I had a blood test this morning, so I had to get up kind of early. It's weenie of me, but it's thrown my whole day off.

Yesterday, I sat down for about two hours and jetted through the Game Gear version of the first Sonic the Hedgehog. I knew it would have some different levels from the Genesis version, but I didn't expect it to have so many different worlds. So much of this game was in lovely pastels, and I loved all the fruits and vegetables around in the jungle levels! It had some hassle spots, but I was not too proud to save state through them, leading to my having a lovely time. I'm glad I finally played this!

I played a few more rooms of Labyrinth, which is still an enjoyable notebook game. My character took a lot of hits yesterday, but maybe my next play session will be luckier.

I used a morning break during yesterday's long work day to play Fitness Boxing feat Hatsune Miku, too. It was a nice break from spreadsheets, but overall kind of a bad idea. It did not help with my ability to stay awake and focused afterwards, though, so I'm probably not going to do this again.
