Self-aware Sonic

by James Field

This is a blackly humorous short story featuring the unforgettably speedy Sonic the Hedgehog from Sega's popular gaming franchise. Sonic is the main protagonist in a tale of science fiction in which scientists have rendered him to be a self-aware gaming sprite, capable of experiencing real emotions. Finding himself trapped in a cycle of being compelled to murder his fellow gaming sprites, he is desperate to find a way of wrestling back some control. This is a dazzlingly delightful short story for readers who enjoy humorous science fiction based around the concept of artificial intelligence.
