ДЄngel Island has many different natural environments, such as jungles, deserts, volcanos and frozen landmasses. The island is also not able to counter forces pushing it downward, such as the extra weight of the Death Egg.

However, the island is still buoyant enough to float on top of the sea without sinking. If the Master Emerald is either shattered into pieces or lost, Angel Island will fall down to the ocean. DescriptionДЄngel Island, from Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles.ДЄngel Island is a large, floating island located in the skies, which floats thanks to the Master Emerald. Many backgrounds for various Zones in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Sonic & Knuckles are heavily influenced by number of Laputa's locations and both games' story sequences bear strong similarities to many scenes from the film. Similarities between Laputa and Angel Island include their dependency on a giant green gem to stay aloft, in Laputa this was called a Levistone. The idea of a levitating island goes back at least as far as Nephelokokkygia ('Cloud Cuckoo Land'), the airborne city of birds from Aristophanes' play The Birds another example is Laputa from Johnathan Swift's novel Gulliver's Travels.ДЄngel Island is likely to have been inspired by Hayao Miyazaki's interpretation of Laputa - a lost city, that is featured in his 1986 animated adventure film Laputa: Castle in the Sky.
