If you played video games created during the 8-bit or 16-bit eras, chances are good you might have misread what an artist was trying to convey with just a few dozen pixels. Players have famously misinterpreted Toad from Super Mario Bros. — is he ... flipping me off? — and what Agahnim from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past actually looked like.

One Sonic Mania player fell victim to sprite misreading recently, and the result is pretty great: a new original character that’s being embraced by Sonic the Hedgehog fans.
