You may also need to do careful platform hopping and/or bouncing in order to get from one ledge to another in some areas. These are handled much more speedily though, and pinball-style plungers are used to send you off, and loop-de-loops are thrown in aswell, for good measure. You can also find extremely narrow diagonal and horizontal passages in the large chunks of ground, in which you can only fit by spinning through. In relation to a real casino, if the open areas are like the large casino rooms, then these smaller areas are like the back corridors that the heavies take you to for a bit of roughing up, after you're caught cheating (and the big blue moving blocks are like the heavies. Linking these sections up together are smaller, slow-moving areas with moving blocks and elevators, etc.

These spaces are often occupied by the pinball tables, filled with bouncy objects, flippers, slot machines and all that jazz, the idea being that you simply try to bounce your way through.

There is so much to see, and so much artistic work has been put into this level that you really have to see and play it for yourself.Ĭasino Night is based on a fairly built-up structure, with much of the map being occupied by solid ground, but there are large open vertical spaces cut into it. On the ground, you'll find mini neon palm trees, flowers, pillars, circular signs sometimes saying 'Casino' in the middle of them, and the names of Sonic and Miles in flashing lights, etc. Open areas that have alot of bumpers, flippers and slot machines form a kind of pinball table, supported by a much more minimalist, spiky-edged chunk of yellow and blue background, and there are alot of little flashing numbers, words and $ signs to boot. The surface of most of the ground is an animated red neon road, sometimes held up a little way by thin blue bars, other times surrounded in little flashing decorations, around loops and curves. The amount of variety you'll see is incredible, and way too much to be detailed here (conveniently). Amongst the gold blocks there are colourful signs depicting arrows, flowers, bars and crazy shapes, and little panels that alternate between images of Sonic and star, and Tails and moon, respectively.

Most of the ground is of a gold colour, made up of many small blocks and square black gaps, possibly to indicate windows on buildings, but all over the place you'll also find all manner of flashing, neon decorations.
