Sanzaru Games Confirms ‘Sonic Bible’ Existence
A new interview on Gamespot went up today with Mat Kraemer of Sanzaru, the developer working on Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice. In the interview, Kraemer mentions the existence of what you may have heard about before. A “Sonic Bible”:
Are there some other ways you’re tying this into the classic games, as well as the animated series?
A lot of the motion, a lot of the combo-ing, the designs of the enemies, the characters—some of those were directly designed by Sega Japan. We went back and forth on character sketches and what they look like. I would go through my Sonic Bible and say, “Oh this guy is like a rhino…” and then we’d go back and forth.
Do you actually have a Sonic Bible?
We do have a Sonic Bible. There is a Sonic Bible. And it’s very helpful, because you want it to be close to the animated series, but you want it to be recognizable to those fans [of classic games] as well.

No guys that’s not a click bait title 😛
So, when can the fans see it?
“those fans”
That was rude.
I think you might be reading too much into it.
So I guess the inconsistent personalities of the characters is all on lazy writers after all, rather than there being no guidelines.
So the “Sonic Bible” is a real thing? And here I thought it was a myth like unicorns, lepercons, the Loch Ness monster, and the Pancor Jackhammer Shotgun.
Nonono, you see, the guy wanted to say that:
“We have a separate “Boom-bible” for the superdeep personalities of the Boom side-franchisething and also a pretty color sheet which tells us the exact color in which our dear lord, Knuxenegger would perfectly shine.”
Also “but you want it to be recognizable to those fans [of classic games] as well.” – someone forgot to give this guy the memo that Sonic Boom was not made for actual Sonic fans, lol.
It’s okay guy, just spare us the pitying statements half a year from now when you’ll probably say “we’ve tried so hard and those ungrateful fans didn’t give us the love we worked so hard for”. xD
Interesting, maybe someday we’ll get a peak at it.
Has Sonic boom been reworked to look and feel more like a 1990s sonic game? yes probably. classic is in fuller force this anniversary. A grim future remains.
