Sonic Pool is a Sonic X-treme minigame with a loose billiards theme. Originating as a Sonic Saturn minigame, the bonus round was initially considered for inclusion in X-treme during its Project Condor phase. Lead developer Christina Coffin recalls that, despite the two games sharing a roughly-similar art style, STI Burbank's sphere-rendered Sonic was so drastically different in appearance to X-treme's pre-rendered one that it was decided to include everything from Pool with the exception of Sonic himself.[1]
Coffin states she never actually received any source code, just their art assets. As a result, new versions of Sonic Saturn's sphere-rendering engine and Sonic Pool's gameplay programming were recreated by Coffin just for Condor.[1] A single known screenshot from this attempt is known to publicly exist.Media:SonicXTreme-RedSands.png[2][3]
