Friday Night Funkin' Sonic's Rhythm Rush

Friday Night Funkin' Sonic's Rhythm Rush was a mod made by GhostBunBun, Weeg, Pancho, Cold_Vee, Foodieti, SAWHane, Flan, and MarStarBro. It features characters from the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, and includes changes to all weeks up to Week 6.

This mod pack originally started out as a skin mod, but evolved into a full overhaul of the main game.

Sonic
Wanna learn more about Sonic the hedgehog?

"Yo, Tails! You got the Cyclone's speakers up n' runnin' yet?"

- Sonic "What you see is what you get! Just a guy that loves adventure! I'm Sonic the Hedgehog!"

- Sonic Taking the place of Boyfriend, Sonic the Hedgehog races into the scene! Wielding a microphone of his own, he rises up to the challenge of battling foes with music.

Sonic is the titular main protagonist of the Sonic franchise, and the mascot of SEGA.

Appearance
Sonic is an anthropomorphic blue hedgehog with peach patches on his stomach, arms, eyelids, inside of ears,and lower half of his head along with a black, bean-like nose. Sonic has a total of six spines on the back of his head but three are usually seen at one time. He is styled to have one large eye with two green irises (depicted as black or white). However, his eyebrows often scrunch into the middle to make the eye look like a pair along with the addition of eyelids and eyelashes. As with most characters in the series, He is depicted in having a scrawny build and lanky, noodle-like limbs with large appendages. He also has two back spines, which may often merge with his head spines in some artwork, along with a tail. His outfit consists of a pair of white gloves, ankle socks, and red shoes with a white strap and red and white bottoms. His design is inspired by the Sonic Adventure series' artwork, with a notable detail being the sharp highlights around his fur and dark shadows along with having peach eyelids and thicker eyelashes, which the current Sonic lacks.

The overall style is meant to be a mix of the Modern and Classic era designs. This can be seen with Sonic with some details being simplified such as his eyes just being a pure black and his shoes being more rounded like his older counterpart along with lacking a buckle which the Classic design usually didn't have.

Icons
Sonic has two icons: Normal, and an extra based on the Boyfriend's placeholder icon, which resembles Mr. Needlemouse

The normal icon is Sonic simplified to a pure blue. His eyes, nose, and mouth are retained in the icon. When near defeat, the icon will start to sweat while Xs form out of his iris and the mouth will open with a shocked expression. The icon is based on the Sonic Team Logo.

The bonus icon is a pure yellow icon of a deformed version of Sonic with white eyes and a blue iris. The full head design is featured on his icon due to being more simplistic compared to other designs. When near defeat, the icon will swap out the eyes with Xs along with sticking out its tongue while sweating. This icon is based off a sketch on a piece of concept art for Sonic's design during the development of Sonic The Hedeghog for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive where he was nicknamed "Mr.Needlemouse." Though familiar designs of Sonic were also featured under "Mr.Needlemouse," the unused name for Sonic.

 * -|Tails=

Tails
"I've changed a lot since I've started hanging with Sonic, but I can't depend on him forever. I know I can do this by myself!"

- Tails

Supporting his friend every step of the way, Tails takes the place of Girlfriend. Rather than any sort of love interest in this scenario, Tails is here to be Sonic's hype man and provide the music for the lyrical battles.

Tails is the overall deuteragonist of the Sonic franchise. He is Sonic's best friend and wishes to follow in his footsteps one day.

Appearance
Tails is an anthropomorphic fox with yellow-orange fur and white patches on his ears and stomach. He has blue eyes (depicted as black) and three hair strands that protrude out of his forehead. Due to his younger age, he is depicted to be short and stocky compared to older characters in the Sonic series. His clothing set contains a pair of white gloves, ankle socks, along with red and white shoes.

In this iteration, Tails rides his "Cyclone" that debut in Sonic Adventure 2. It is a mech with a blue and yellow color scheme that can transform between an aerial, walker, and vehicle state, though it remains in its walker state in the mod. The Cylone has two large legs along with a minigun mounted on the front and a missle launcher latched onto the back fin. It has two wings on its side for the flight mode. It also has wheels seen in the undercarriage for its car mode. It has two stereos mounted on the side to correspond with Girlfriend's role and has a logo depicting two tails, in reference to Tails' defining trait, branded near its front.

As previously stated by Cherribun, the overall style is meant to be a mix of the Modern and Classic era designs. For Tails, this is achieved through simplifying details such as giving Tails solid black eyes and a darker orange tint fur compared to the plain yellow.

Knuckles
"I'll probably be on this floating island forever, guarding the Master Emerald again. I may not know the whole story behind this, but perhaps it's better that way. I'm at peace once more."

- Knuckles

Knock Knock, it's Knuckles! Sworn protector of the Master Emerald, he takes the place of Daddy Dearest. Having his own history with rap and music, Knuckles was a perfect fit for this mod.

Knuckles is the overall tritagonist of the Sonic franchise. He is the guardian of the Master Emerald on Angel Island. He is destined to be there, forever....

Appearance
Knuckles is a red echidna with dreadlocks, purple eyes, a white part on his body, spikey fists covered with gloves, and green, red, and yellow shoes.

 * -|Shadow=

Shadow
"You're comparing yourself to me? Ha! You're not even good enough to be my fake."

- Shadow

Just as grumpy as ever, Shadow joins the fun in Pico's place. Brandishing one of his guns, even in musical battles will he perform his best and look threatening while doing so!

Shadow is a supporting protagonist of the Sonic franchise. He is the rival of Sonic, and the Edgy Edgelord who will fight to protect earth, as it was the final request of his now deceased best friend, Maria Robotnik.

He also gets confused over Sonic sometimes by civilians.

Appearance
Shadow is a black hedgehog brandishing some hover shoes, inhibitor rings on his wrists, and a gun. He has red stripes over his quills and some of his body. He also has white chest hair.
