Catapult (Sonic and the Secret Rings)

The Catapult is a gimmick that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a ballistic device used to launch the playable character.

Overview

Sonic flying from the Catapult in the manual for *Sonic and the Secret Rings*.

When using this gimmick, Sonic the Hedgehog insert himself via Spin Attack-form. With the player holding the Wii Remote in vertical position, Sonic can be thrown across great distances. How far Sonic goes depends on how the player swings the Wii Remote; if the player swings powerfully, Sonic will be launched to the right position and continues onto the level. However, if the player swings poorly, Sonic will either fall into a bottomless pit or not reach the selected destination.

Trivia

In SegaSonic the Hedgehog, Landslide Limbo features a similar-looking set of wooden catapults that the player has to use to cross over pits.
