'''''Knuckles' Chaotix''''' is a [[1995]] platform game developed and published by Sega for the [[32X]]. It is a side game in the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' franchise, featuring Knuckles the Echidna as the main character, joined by four other characters known as the "Chaotix": Mighty the Armadillo, returning from ''[[SegaSonic the Hedgehog]]'', and three newcomers in Espio, Charmy, and Vector. They work together in order to defeat Dr. Robotnik and Metal Sonic, who are attempting to obtain six powerful "Chaos Rings" that will give them control over a mysterious island. During gameplay, two characters are connected to each other via a tether, and the player must make use of rubber band physics to navigate through the stages. The game was played on ''[[The D-Pad]]'' in [[2011]], preceded by a quickly-abandoned LP of the [[2010]] [[Wii]] game ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I]]'', with the two games serving as the fifth and sixth (and final) games in ''[[Sonic Week]]''. The entire LP was recorded in a single session and uploaded to the now defunct dpadup.com website as one long episode on June 25, 2011. It was later edited into 16 shorter episodes and released on YouTube on weekdays from October 14 to November 5, 2011.
 +
 
 +
The game was revisited on ''The D-Pad'' in [[2017]], preceded by a brief LP of '''''Sonic Crackers''''', a [[1994]] [[Sega Genesis]] prototype build of ''Knuckles' Chaotix'' featuring Sonic and Tails as the main characters, as the twenty-second and twenty-third games in ''[[The Super Sonic Let's Play]]''. The LP consisted of 15 episodes, released on weekdays from January 9 to January 24, 2017.
 +
 
 +
The game was played on ''The D-Pad'' a third time in a one-off episode by Rick in celebration of the 10th anniversary of ''Sonic Week'' in [[2021]], as the fifth game in ''[[Sonic Weekathon]]''. The episode was streamed live on the dpadfm Twitch account before being uploaded to YouTube on June 25, 2021.
 +
 
 +
The game was played on ''The D-Pad'' a fourth time in a one-off episode in 2021, as the fourth game in ''[[The Complete 32X]]''. The episode was released on November 2, 2021.
  
'''''Knuckles' Chaotix''''' is a 1995 platform game developed by Sonic Team and published by SEGA for the [[32X]]. It is a spinoff game in the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' franchise, featuring Knuckles the Echidna as the main character and unique "rubber band" physics. ''Knuckles' Chaotix'' became infamous on [[The D-Pad]] after they played it as the 6th and final game in ''[[Sonic Week]]'' (acting as a hasty replacement for ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I]]'') - the group were amazed by the game's poor quality and consistently referred to it in later episodes as one of the worst games they'd played on the channel. The game was played a second time by the channel in 2017, as the 23rd game of ''[[The Super Sonic Let's Play]]''.

  |ShortSummary = After dealing with some technical issues, the group begin the intended final game of Sonic Week - ''Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I''. Rick enters the first act of Splash Hill Zone, but is confronted with frame rate issues (none of which are visible on the video itself) that make the game nearly unplayable. He completes the act, then gives up on the game, changing to ''Knuckles' Chaotix'' instead. Rick plays through some of the opening area, controlling Knuckles and picking up Espio as an ally soon after. He briefly enters Practice Mode, a tutorial, but decides to exit it before learning all of the controls.

  |ShortSummary = Rick explains some of the history behind ''Knuckles' Chaotix'' while playing through the remainder of the intro stage and trying to get used to the controls. Upon reaching the end of the level, he enters a giant ring and plays a special stage, which he completes to obtain the first Chaos Ring. Afterwards, he is given the option of changing character and picks Mighty, then gets Heavy from the Combi Comfiner at C/J's suggestion. The random level selector sends Rick to the first stage of Marina Madness, which he completes. Back at the level select, Rick switches out Heavy for Vector and heads to the first level of Speed Slider. As he plays through the stage, the group discuss the future of the ''Sonic'' franchise. Rick reaches the end of the level with few problems.

  |ShortSummary = Rick accidentally gets the useless Bomb from the Combi Confiner, and ends up going to the first stage of Botanic Base. He completes it, and exchanges Bomb for Espio, only to be sent straight back to Botanic Base for the second stage. While in the level, he briefly enters a bonus stage through a ring, but hits an exit almost immediately and gets sent back out, leaving him confused as to what he even played. By the end of the stage, he has enough rings to enter another special stage. Despite some close calls in the second half of the stage, Rick completes it and earns a second Chaos Ring.

He enters the second stage of Speed Slider and completes it, entering another special stage at the end. He is forced to replay the second section due to not having enough spheres at the end, but eventually succeeds and gets the third Chaos Ring. At the level select, Rick switches out Charmy for Espio and heads to the second stage of Marina Madness. As the group remember a bad experience at a convention, Rick plays through the level, and encounters another bonus stage along the way, but does not finish the stage with enough rings for a special stage.

  |ShortSummary = Rick enters the third stage of Speed Slider, but becomes lost trying to find his way through the confusing level layout, with the game's awkward physics only making the situation worse. He eventually gets to the end and enters another special stage, but runs out of rings in the second section and fails. He then goes straight to Speed Slider's fourth stage as he talks about musical motifs in ''The Legend of Zelda'' games. Rick completes the stage fairly quickly, without getting enough rings for a special stage. As he does this, the group realize that there are in fact five stages in each zone, not three, meaning the game is significantly longer than they anticipated.

  |ShortSummary = Rick heads to the third stage of Marina Madness while the group speculate on the future of the ''Sonic'' franchise. He reaches the end of the stage and enters a giant ring, but falls off the course early on in the special stage. Back at the level select, Rick is sent to the first stage of Techno Tower and plays through it, but once again becomes stuck for some time trying to figure out which way to go. Eventually, he makes it to the end and enters another special stage, but falls through a small gap in the course almost immediately and fails yet again.

== Trivia ==
 +
*''Knuckles' Chaotix'' was originally never intended to be played as part of ''Sonic Week''. ''Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I'' was the planned final game, but was abandoned after only a few minutes of gameplay due to severe lag issues that made the game unplayable. ''Knuckles' Chaotix'' was hastily swapped in as a substitute game.

Knuckles' Chaotix is a 1995 platform game developed and published by Sega for the 32X. It is a side game in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, featuring Knuckles the Echidna as the main character, joined by four other characters known as the "Chaotix": Mighty the Armadillo, returning from SegaSonic the Hedgehog, and three newcomers in Espio, Charmy, and Vector. They work together in order to defeat Dr. Robotnik and Metal Sonic, who are attempting to obtain six powerful "Chaos Rings" that will give them control over a mysterious island. During gameplay, two characters are connected to each other via a tether, and the player must make use of rubber band physics to navigate through the stages. The game was played on The D-Pad in 2011, preceded by a quickly-abandoned LP of the 2010 Wii game Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I, with the two games serving as the fifth and sixth (and final) games in Sonic Week. The entire LP was recorded in a single session and uploaded to the now defunct dpadup.com website as one long episode on June 25, 2011. It was later edited into 16 shorter episodes and released on YouTube on weekdays from October 14 to November 5, 2011.

The game was revisited on The D-Pad in 2017, preceded by a brief LP of Sonic Crackers, a 1994 Sega Genesis prototype build of Knuckles' Chaotix featuring Sonic and Tails as the main characters, as the twenty-second and twenty-third games in The Super Sonic Let's Play. The LP consisted of 15 episodes, released on weekdays from January 9 to January 24, 2017.

The game was played on The D-Pad a third time in a one-off episode by Rick in celebration of the 10th anniversary of Sonic Week in 2021, as the fifth game in Sonic Weekathon. The episode was streamed live on the dpadfm Twitch account before being uploaded to YouTube on June 25, 2021.

The game was played on The D-Pad a fourth time in a one-off episode in 2021, as the fourth game in The Complete 32X. The episode was released on November 2, 2021.

Trivia

  • Knuckles' Chaotix was originally never intended to be played as part of Sonic Week. Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I was the planned final game, but was abandoned after only a few minutes of gameplay due to severe lag issues that made the game unplayable. Knuckles' Chaotix was hastily swapped in as a substitute game.

Notes
