Sonic Blast

Then again, I played it the most when my grandma died and my parents were splitting up, so perhaps that has something to do with it

I actually saw a theory that Sonic 3 is a follow up to Sonic 2 8 bit bad ending where the 3 half represents the 5 stages of grief
1) Denial is Angel Island where it's the run of the mill green level where Sonic pretends its fine
2) Anger is Hydrocity Zone where Sonic's primary fear is water, and most in grieving lash out in the face of their fears
3) Bargaining is Marble Garden since that has more than 7 special stage rings, allowing for multiple chances to get the chaos emeralds, unlike Sonic where he failed to save Tails
4) Depression is Carnival Night where Sonic does his best to drown his sorrows away by being in a happy place to distract him from his sadness
5) Acceptance is Ice Cap where Sonic comes to terms with the cold truth of death as he learns to conquer his fears and be a better hedgehog
>for fun
6) Launch Base is moving forward as he stops Eggman and then it continues into the &Knuckles half

So maybe that answers your question?
