After apparently developing a sense of remorse for his past indiscretions, Dr. Eggman opens "Dr. Eggman's Interstellar Amusement Park" up in space, made up of several planet sized attractions. Suspicious, Sonic, accompanied by Tails, check it out and come across Yacker, who comes from a species of aliens known as Wisps. After managing to communicate with him, they learn that the other Wisps have been kidnapped by Dr. Eggman, who plans to harness their "Hyper-Go-On" energy for his nefarious schemes. All Sonic has to do is to conquer "Dr. Eggman's Interstellar Amusement Park" and get back to Earth as soon as possible.
