The internet is in utter turmoil over the meme-inspiring Sonic the Hedgehog trailer, particularly his human-proportioned design.

As a result, an artist from game developer Sucker Punch (Infamous and Ghost of Tsushima) named Edward Pun has applied a quick redesign of the lanky character.

In Pun’s render, Sonic appears shorter and more proportioned to his look in the original Sonic the Hedgehog games from the Genesis era.
