Not like our future, that’s for damn sure

best case scenario: Astal or maybe Keio Flying Squadron 2

given the market situation back then i doubt a Sonic side-scroller on the Saturn would be fully 2D, it probably would look like Bug!, Klonoa or Pandemonium

Sonic X-treme was going to suck/bomb Saturn no matter what. the appeal of the first 3 games and mania was a sense of blinding speed and the ability to spin through levels with some relative ease. X-treme wouldve been a glorified 1 special stage or even a 2D version of 3D blast but without the flicky collecting

A Sonic game in the style of Bug! sounds like a bad move. Sonic with 2D movement and 3D models like Klonoa would be cool, though.

Bug is the second 3D platformer ever, right? It should’ve been groundbreaking but instead it’s just this weird little cult game. What went wrong?

Kinda? Sonic Jam games were ported, not emulation. They're natively running on Saturn hardware, and also include the special modes with different level layouts. I'd say Jam counts as an original Sonic game.

What would a proper sequel to Sonic 3D Blast on the Saturn have looked like?

An arcade style Sonic The Hedgehog game. Something similar to Sonic CD, but with better stages.

Best case scenario, I'd say probably something like the GBA or DS Sonic games.

A Saturn 2D platformer Sonic wouldn't have looked like Mania at all, too much 16-bit visual rehashes in that game, it works nowadays because nostalgia.

It would have been pre-rendered 2D like Lost Vikings 2 and Johnny Bazookatone or something with polygonal graphics.
