Sonic the Very Useful Engine (Video Game)	comment	Sonic the Very Useful Engine is a ROM hack of Sonic the Hedgehog by VAdaPEGA, released in 2014. It quickly became a hit amongst the Sonic hacking community due to its quirks.Simply put, the game is mostly unaltered... aside from the little fact that grabbing a ring (or coin, as they now appear to be) causes the Thomas & Friends theme to start playing. Constantly. And there's a few other subtle alterations as well... saying anything more would spoil the surprise.

Sonic the Very Useful Engine (Video Game) / int_29a39f6	comment	The Easter Egg itself is a reference to Miley Cyrus's infamous "Wrecking Ball" video.

Sonic the Very Useful Engine (Video Game) / int_485d09ab	type	Creator In-Joke
Sonic the Very Useful Engine (Video Game) / int_485d09ab	comment	Creator In-Joke: Almost the entire thing is an in-joke. For example, the use of "Have You Ever" during Labyrinth Zone's looping slide is a reference to a joke hack which was entirely dedicated to that.

Sonic the Very Useful Engine (Video Game) / int_4e3d253b	type	Downer Ending
Sonic the Very Useful Engine (Video Game) / int_4e3d253b	comment	Downer Ending: The good ending could be interpreted this way — the Thomas Emeralds change the entire landscape into Thomas, leaving all the animals to fall and presumably perish. Sonic isn't affected at all, though — which could just make it worse.

Sonic the Very Useful Engine (Video Game) / int_51c68d06	comment	Surprise Creepy: The Thomas faces everywhere are intentionally unnerving. Particularly once Sonic himself gets in on it.

Sonic the Very Useful Engine (Video Game) / int_7e6c0522	comment	Off with His Head!: The Fat Controller suffers this if you decide to jump into him as he escapes the Final Zone fight. His head subsequently cameos in The Stinger if you get all the Thomas Emeralds.

Sonic the Very Useful Engine (Video Game) / int_c75df49a	type	Shout-Out
Sonic the Very Useful Engine (Video Game) / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: Aside from the obvious: The Arc Words are a reference to this short YouTube Poop. In particular, the SEGA choir is replaced by that exact sound clip. The looping slide in Labyrinth Zone Act 3 changes the music into "Have You Ever" by The Offspring. Star Light Zone Act 2 uses "The Lonely Man" for its background music. The drowning music segues into the Mos Eisley Catina band's song near the end. The signifier for performing the Easter Egg correctly is a screen depicting Pantufa the Cat (star of an infamous Platform Hell hack) eagerly watching a cockroach run by. The Easter Egg itself is a reference to Miley Cyrus's infamous "Wrecking Ball" video. An updated version available on Steam Workshop has the first level from a fangame called Sonic Overture.
