Seaside Hill (Sonic Generations)

Seaside Hill is one of the levels in the game Sonic Generations. It represents Sonic Heroes in the Dreamcast Era of the game. Enemies such as the Egg Pawn return. This stage has some references to other stages, like Hydrocity Zone, Jungle Joyride, Ocean Palace and Labyrinth Zone. It is exclusive to the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC versions.

Act 1
The wheel chase from Ocean Palace returns in this level. There are also underwater portions making allusions to Hydrocity Zone and Labyrinth Zone. Surfing was also hinted at as a power-up for either Classic or Modern Sonic in this stage, but this feature is not present in the final released game.

Act 2
In 3D sections, running on water is a feature. The moving ruins from the original Seaside Hill return in this level, as well as the Egg Pawns, with some new enemies like Spinners. A quick step section similar to ones featured in Jungle Joyride and Planet Wisp makes an appearance as well. The karts from the original stage return, featuring modified controls. Modern Sonic is also able to ride on the back of a turtle.

Trivia

 * Certain parts of Classic Sonic's level are much like sections of Hydrocity Zone and Labyrinth Zone. Perhaps this is SEGA's way of providing more variety to the levels, as they most likely knew that certain levels would look too similar to each other. This also makes Seaside Hill the obligatory "Water Level" that appears in most Sonic games.
 * Seaside Hill forbids you from taking unnecessary shortcuts. The water around the stage is marked off by buoys, and whilst Modern Sonic can run on water, if you venture outside of the safety area, you have approximately 2 seconds to make it back or a Chopper will emerge from the sea and eat you.
 * This is the first time you can go underwater in this stage. In Sonic Heroes and Sonic and Sega All-Stars Racing you would die upon going underwater.
 * Unlike in Sonic Heroes, Tails and Knuckles are not playable.
 * As a result, the kart controls are modified. Only Sonic rides the kart, and it is possible to boost while using it.
 * This stage can be debated as Ocean Palace as well as Seaside Hill.
 * This level is placed in the Dreamcast era, despite not appearing on said console. This was done to make each era have an equal number of levels. Although Sega Dreamcast was infact part of the sixth Generation console era alongside, Playstation 2, Nintendo Gamecube and Xbox.
 * The Egg Pawn is the only returning enemy in this stage, since the Spinners and Choppers never appeared in this stage.
 * Strangely, Spinners replace the Egg Flappers as the flying enemy.
 * This is the only level in the Dreamcast era that doesn't take place in a city.
