Draw Sonic Fan Art, Learn Project Needlemouse’s True Name
A couple weeks ago Sega issued a challenge to Sonic fans. Those dedicated hedgehog enthusiasts were asked diehard Sonic trivia questions and their reward was learning that Sega’s original mascot will be the only playable character in the upcoming Project Needlemouse. Now that we know this is a purist’s Sonic game, Sega has issued another challenge…
Upon seeing fake concept art like the Metropolis City mantis Badnik below, Sega dares Sonic fans to throw their fake concepts their way. They love it. If 100 Sonic fans can submit concept art by Monday, Sega promises to roll out Project Needlemouse’s real name! That’s not all, they also promise to pull back the curtain on the game’s first Zone and even throw in a “bonus reward.” Exciting stuff!
Check out Sega’s blog for more details on entering the contest. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to find my pencil.
