8 months ago Tested, works like a charm on Sonic Mania without "Plus DLC". The quest fills its function pretty well, can only be slitghly abused with "Blue rings" monitors which make all of your rings fall instead of 20 max.
In case you're looking for ideas, I have quickly studied retro Sonic games to add them and came up with those quests:
- Monitors broken
- Ring bonus (= rings carried up to the end of level)
Going to merge it anyway because it's already a very satisfying addition to the library as it is 👍
Tried a few ideas and this one is actually the best IMO even though it's simple. You only have to collect rings, but it only starts progressing the quest when you have over 20. This means that you want to play well and keep your rings, because recollecting the ones you lost won't count for much (if anything) and will slow you down.
