The Ooze

Sega Technical Institute (STI) was quite the weird beast of a studio. Founded in 1990 by Mark Cerny, its goal was to develop games meant for American tastes, the first being a Genesis game based on the Dick Tracy movie, and later the platformer Kid Chameleon. They then found themselves joined with a team of Japanese developers to create Sonic the Hedgehog 2. But development was rocky, and head programmer Yuji Naka would only agree to develop Sonic 3 if he could work with his team back in Japan. After this, STI were left without any real direction. Their next title would be the quite average Sonic Spinball, made as a stopgap to fill the holiday hole left by the Sonic 3 delays. Many other projects never saw the light of day, among them a puzzle game starring Tails. The other two titles that would be greenlighted by the Sega execs were quite different from the platformers the team had been known for up until that point, both with more of a “mature” feeling – the beat-em-up Comix Zone, and the unusual The Ooze.
