Good News everybody,
The second episode of Sonic: The Shining Road is just around the corner.
As I was working on the second half of Shadow's Story, I recieved a message saying that I could not go over 16,000 frames. Because of this, I am splitting Shadow's Story into 2 parts. The second part will not be in episode 2 but I am making an Episiode 2.5 which just includes the 2nd part of Shadow's Story.
Anyway, in order to lower the frames I had to cut a lot of stuff off.
The battle with Sonic and the battle with Shadow is now significantly shorter. (I had to lowered the Enemy's HP)
The two optional locations in Sonic's Story are sadly no longer there.
Because of this, I will be adding an optional location and battle in Episode 3.
I know most of this is bad news but because of this, I won't have as much to work on.
So what I wanted to say is that Episode 2 will be published within 1 - 2 weeks from now.

Originally, the optional battle was going to be Sonic vs Knuckles.
Now that it is scrapped, I want you all to post ideas for the optional battle in Episode 3.

Rule #1
It must only include the characters that were introduced in Episode 1

Rule #2
Despite the first rule, you can choose Shadow to be in the battle if you want.

Rule #3
Keep in mind that you can choose who to play as during the battle and the scene afterwards will change depending on who wins. So pick two characters that you can both play as and not just who you want to fight against.

Rule #4
You can't pick the Gizoid (Which you will find out what its true identity is in Episode 2)

I will choose the one that I like best.

OR

If there is more than one request for the same two characters, I will choose the one that was requested the most.
