(A quick rundown of what they’re saying, because I’m not confident in my handwriting or picture-taking skills…)
Infinite: “He wasn’t worth killing.”
Eggman: “So…. He beat you?”
Infinite: “….”
Infinite: “Sigh….”
Infinite: “He beat me…”
Eggman: “Thought so.”
This one was a really fun one! The joke is based on that scene from Sonic Forces after the first Infinite boss fight where he totally could have killed Sonic, but just flew off instead. Obviously, they couldn’t actually have him kill Sonic, because then the game would be over in only a few levels. I just think it’s funny how he claimed that Sonic “wasn’t worth killing”.
So, this is Infinite going back to his boss, and telling Eggman that he messed up, but coming up with a cool and edgy excuse for it.
A big thing I was playing around with on this one was trying to make Infinite more expressive. Which isn’t easy to do, considering that the only part of his face you can see is just one eye. I had to focus a lot on his body language, and just doing what I could with that single eye. Overall, I think it turned out pretty great!
