* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler:At the endgame, when Spark is told by Fark and Clarity that he has essentially been a pawn this whole time and aided Clarity in taking over the world, he is trembling and terrified, even denying it initially. Once Clarity has been defeated, Spark is so ashamed over everything that he offers his life up to shut the machine down and release Fark. Fark refuses and smacks some sense into him, telling him that Spark's plan is garbage, and that a much better plan is for them to work together from hereon and try to find survivors, with Fark stating he has as much responsibility in what Clarity has done as Spark does right now. This helps Spark change his attitude, realizing he will be stuck as an AI forever, but at least he and Fark (who still has a living body) can try to fix the world.]]

*** Utopia Shelter is often likened to [[VideoGame/SonicUnleashed Eggmanland]] as an ''incredibly,'' '''brutally''' tough final stage meant to wear the player down through extra-life attrition. In fact, the entire gimmick of Spark having a limited number of lives to complete the stage with is not unlike the Playstation 2 and Wii ports of Sonic Unleashed, which functioned on a similar principle of lives being finite for a given stage and the player getting more lives to complete stages with by going out of their way to nab collectibles. While not the same visually, the stages even share a central objective; getting to the core of the facility, which for both stages are close to the bottom of the planet's crust layer.

** Several of the stages, especially the early ones, draw heavily from the 3D Sonic stages in terms of visuals and events, beyond the [[VideoGame/SonicHeroes Rail Canyon]] {{Homage}} Drynion Desert represents;
*** Terminal Village draws a lot of parallels to Windmill Isle Day from ''VideoGame/SonicUnleashed.''
*** Protest Prison is a bit more subtle about its inspiration, but it draws much from the ''VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog'' rendition of the Prison Island stages, including the various waterfalls and streams present in both games, and takes its hand-tram gimmick from the endgame level Cosmic Fall.
*** Protest City is an amalgamation of the highway-themed stages from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'', with the focus on mostly trying to avoid street-level gridlock and keep to the heights of the city taken from the first half of Sonic and Tails' Speed Highway stages from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure''. It even pulls a segment out of City Escape from ''Adventure 2'' as Spark goes up a loop only to run down the side of a building into springs.
*** Two-Stage Liftoff, a side stage from Stratoria Interstellar, is effectively an expanded version of the penultimate segment of Metal Harbor from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'', where Sonic quickly makes his way up the support pillars of a missile to hitch a ride.
