On whether we’ll still see a decent amount of Eggman in the game… That’s a very fun dynamic that was very cool to create, these two guys have an uneasy partnership and we’ll be talking about that more at E3. We wanted him to pass down the torch in terms of introducing a new villain. On how Eggman fits into everything since Sonic Boom has a new main villain… In collaboration with the TV writers, we wanted to have a consistent approach with their personalities and the show really plays up on that. He’s our go to guy for the punch line and I think the show does that as well.

A lot of times, the things he is saying tend to be funny because he is trying to process what is happening. He’s the most fun character to write for because he’s a little slow on the uptake. There are some places that only she can get to. She’s the only character, from a pure mechanics perspective, that has a triple jump. She is very agile, she is very acrobatic, and very graceful. The goal was to have her be appealing on her own. We didn’t want her to be fawning after Sonic. We wanted to have a strong, able-bodied female character.
