Why I Love is a series of guest editorials on GamesIndustry.biz intended to showcase the ways in which game developers appreciate each other's work. This entry was contributed by Katharina Wunder, Programmer at Thunderful Development, who will be launching the story-driven action-adventure Wavetale this December on PC, Xbox, PlayStation and Switch.
We all have our own Christmas traditions and, as we approach the holidays, it's time for me to start preparing for mine. It's time to dig through the cupboards, pull out my old Sega Mega Drive and return to my beloved Sonic series.
The very first video game I ever encountered in my life was Sonic 3. I was about five years old when I started spending my afternoons at a youth centre in our little town in the East-German countryside. Here, kids could hang out after school, buy a glass of Sprite for 50 German pfennig and get help with their homework. Despite a range of other interesting activities offered, the agreed-upon highlight of the place was an old TV set in the corner of the room. The local church blessed us by donating a Sega Mega Drive and it came with Sonic 3.
