History YMMV / SonicDreamsCollection

* RetroactiveRecognition: The game's lead developer Ben Esposito would later become more well known for his work on the games ''VideoGame/{{Tattletail}}'' and ''VideoGame/DonutCounty''.

* WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs: Especially the Movie Maker part. [[spoiler:It plays out several fetishes such as [[BalloonBelly stuffing]], [[MisterSeahorse male pregnancy]] and [[JustEatHim vore]]]].

* SignatureScene: Three words: [[SurpriseCreepy Big]] the [[VaderBreath Cat]].

* UnintentionalUncannyValley:
** [[spoiler:Sonic's human feet]] in ''My Roommate Sonic''.
** The [[spoiler: realistic Big the Cat]] in ''Sonic Movie Maker'', [[spoiler:especially his eyes]].

* BrokenBase:
** Some think that the game is surreal and hilarious (if not scary). The other thinks it's over-hyped by Youtube Let's Players.
** The premise of the game itself; is it a good satire of the sometimes ''very'' surreal Sonic fanbase, or is it a dire demand for attention on the developers' part and extremely outdated because of it?

* DiscreditedMeme: It is, at its most basic, a mockery of the Sonic fanbase and its weirder parts. Something which has been happening since, at the very least, the early 2000's. Even those who ''do'' bash Sonic fans on a daily basis find the game to be outdated.

** The “Make My Sonic” game, now that ''VideoGame/SonicForces'' has the Custom Hero. Especially since the former is a parody of Sonic fan characters and the latter is essentially Sega embracing the idea.

** The [[spoiler: realistic Big the Cat]] in ''Sonic Movie Maker'', [[spoiler: especially his eyes.]]
* WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs: Especially the Movie Maker part. [[spoiler: It plays out several fetishes such as [[BalloonBelly stuffing]], [[MisterSeahorse male pregnancy]], and [[JustEatHim vore]].]]

** Four years after this game came out, we'd get more [[UncannyValley disturbingly realistic/humanoid]] Sonic characters in an [[Film/SonicTheHedgehog2020 officially licensed piece of media.]]

* UncannyValley:

* BrokenBase: Some think that the game is surreal and hilarious (if not scary). The other thinks it's over-hyped by Youtube Let's Players.

* CriticalResearchFailure: Sonic Movie Maker claims to have been made in 1998, yet features Shadow and Rouge (who were not even conceptualized until [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 three years later]]), and Blaze (whose first appearance was in ''[[VideoGame/SonicRush 2005]]''). Additionally, all the character models (save Sonic, the Chao, the Eggs, and [[spoiler:Big]]) are taken from ''VideoGame/SonicGenerations'', and as such don't reflect the designs they had during the Dreamcast era. But, then again, [[MST3KMantra you shouldn't really go into it looking for accuracy...]]
** Perhaps most egregiously, the How to Play menu features a drawing of Dr. Eggman's ''VideoGame/SonicBoom'' design, which was first revealed in ''2014''.

* EveryoneIsJesusInPurgatory: The wiki observes that the game connects vore and pregnancy fetishes into recurring death-rebirth symbolism: Tails eaten and "birthed" by Sonic, the player character ending up in Rouge's innards and exiting, the player character disappearing into Sonic's eye vortex and becoming a hedgehog-man, and (most blatantly) the Sonic recolors being consumed by Eggman to become angels and then reincarnate.

* HilariousInHindsight: The “Make My Sonic” game, now that ''VideoGame/SonicForces'' has the Custom Hero. Especially since the former is a parody of Sonic fan characters and the latter is essentially Sega embracing the idea.

* WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs: Especially the Movie Maker part. [[spoiler: It plays out several fetishes such as [[BalloonBelly stuffing]], [[MrSeahorse male pregnancy]], and [[JustEatHim vore]].]]

* AcceptableTargets: Various niche fetishists, if the the second half of ''Sonic Movie Maker'' is anything to go by.
** Also, the entire Sonic fanbase itself. That... more or less goes without saying.

* SnarkBait: Goes without saying, though if that snark is directed at the fanbase this game mocks or the ''Sonic'' game itself is up for debate.

** Perhaps most egregiously, the How to Play menu features a drawing of Dr. Eggman's ''Sonic Boom'' design, which was first revealed in ''2014''.

** Four years after this game came out, we'd get more [[UncannyValley disturbingly realistic/humanoid]] Sonic characters in an [[Film/SonicTheHedgehog2019 officially licensed piece of media.]]
* NightmareFuel: This game has ''[[NightmareFuel.SonicDreamsCollection buckets]]'' of them.

** Also, the entire Sonic fanbase itself. That...more or less goes without saying.

** While the game is obviously making some kind of comentary on Sonic's fandom, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnVAguMh8bw one reviewer]] in particular argues that this comentary is not simple mockery or moral judgement, but rather a study of how fetishes can imprint onto some people during adolescense and affect the way they interact with each other, even years into adulthood. The reviewer promptly makes it clear that there's no way to know wheather this was the developers' intention or not.

* SnarkBait: Goes without saying, though wherever that snark is directed at the fanbase this game mocks or the game itself is up for debate.

** Perhaps most egregiously, the How to Play menu features a drawing of Dr. Eggman's ''Sonic Boom'' design, which was first revealed in ''2014''!
