"Do you believe in life after death? Because in the video game world, there is."

Debug Mode is a sprite comic made by Shadowunleashed13 that debuted on July 25, 2012. Twelve eighteen-panel comics have been planned for the series, five of which have already been released. A new comic is scheduled to be released every Saturday.

Name
The series was originally not intended to have a name, as it was simply an experiment upon creation. Instead, each comic would have a separate name. But when faced with the challenge of coming up with a name for each individual comic, Shadowunleashed13 proposed a contest, which only NomadMusik entered. The winning name: Debug Mode.

The Story So Far
One day Sonic is running through Green Hill Zone, when he unexpectedly hits a spike trap that kills him. Unfortunately, Sonic is out of continues, 1-ups, and rings. So he gets a game over. But instead of being sent back to the title screen, he is thrown onto a sheet of paper in Japan. A mysterious being approaches him, whose name Sonic learns to be Sega. Sega reveals that it created him as a video game character. Sonic has a hard time believing this, but suddenly discovers that "Sega" is actually Vector the Crocodile and Espio the Chameleon speaking into a microphone.

Vector and Espio lie to Sonic, saying that they needed the Chaos Emeralds for a job Sega hired them to do. They explain that because Sonic keeps collecting the Chaos Emeralds, they cannot get the Chaos Emeralds they so desperately need. They also tell Sonic that Tech Support is working to get Sonic back into his video game. So, with a parting farewell, Vector and Espio leave Sonic trapped on the sheet of paper.

As Vector and Espio do not know how to use the Chaos Emeralds, they accidentally send every Sonic character onto the sheet of paper. Suddenly, the real Sega shows up. They explain that they have hired a new Tech Support. However, they refuse to do anything about Sonic's situation. Meanwhile, the characters are stuck arguing about how to escape the sheet of paper.
