Labyrinth of the Sky

Labyrinth of the Sky |
---|
First Zone, Sonic Labyrinth |
Number of Acts: 4 |
Boss: Mecha Gorilla |
The first zone of Sonic Labyrinth, Labyrinth of the Sky, is a skybound area with a checkerboard floor pattern. Common obstacles are slick floor panels, which speed up movement but also makes it difficult to control, and conveyor belts. These features reappear in subsequent levels too; perhaps the most annoying hazards unique to the Labyrinth of the Sky are the glue-spitting Peppepe badniks, who make Sonic squelch to a halt before slowly trundling into the hedgehog to dislodge his keys.
Instruction Manual Description
“ | Welcome to the great wide open! Bumpers and flippers fling you across the maze like a little blue pinball. Springs let you leap to higher levels. Badniks fire sticky wads of glue to slow you down so they can attack. | „ |
