    I love how long that Sega screen is being displayed, like "THIS WAS MADE BY SEGA, WE ARE AWESOME!".

    I just completed a no-homing attack run, since apparently some people fap over the possibility of not using it.

    The only act of any real importance is Metropolis Act 3, so I recorded it.




    Also, it's now no longer necessary to use the spindash, thanks to the boosters!
     
  3. Well done. Now for your next challenge, the all/pure-homing attack run.

    I will not be satisfied until I only have to hold down right to complete every act.

    Excluding boss fights, of course.

    Aside from the final boss and having to turn left to activate Aquatic Ruin, you can do that. :ssh:

    Even on Aquatic Ruin, you can just use the homing attack when the boss is on the right side...
     
  8. Someone needs to do this with the entire game.

    Just without the shitty recording quality, framerate, sound, cropping and skill.

    Authentic!

    (You should disable time overs; Dimps has the option in all their games.)

    Well I do have an options screen which has a bunch of useless options. If anyone has an idea for a 2nd option then I'll bring back the screen.
    Anyway, working on the bugfix version. So far:
    - The homing attack will now work on all three buttons.
    - Death Egg has 3 rings before Silver Sonic and 3 rings before the final boss to assist with defeating the bosses.
    - Oil Ocean Zone's accidental Bubbles has been replaced with a speed booster.
    - Hill Top Zone Act 2 has a few boosters removed to stop the scrolling issues with the fire and background.

    Continues will also be re-enabled and I'll see about getting the MTZ lava fixed.

    WAT? Removing speed boosters? Blasphemy! :v:

    Also, I was incredibly dissapointed when there were no speed boosters in the hallway in DEZ before the giant mech battle.

    And what would these "useless options" be?

    Second option? Difficulty level, another Dimps staple. Just make all Badniks spikeless Bubbles in Easy mode.
     
  13. So I used a save state from Sonic 2 to enable everything.

    I heard the unused tracks, and even they have been tweaked to the Dimps style.

    And I have played up to Metropolis normally...so I know the game without debug and stuff.

    Very well done, SOTI!

    No no no, you're doing it all wrong. We all know Dimps can't do a final boss without forcing Super Sonic on the player.

    Dimps style for Easy mode? Just drop from 8 to 6 hits to beat the bosses :v: (Sonic Rush)

    It does that, but it also removes a bunch of Badniks. Take that to the next level with Bubbles.

    In Easy Mode, just remove all the badniks, spikes, lava in HTZ, steam things in MZ, and propellers in WFZ. Plus, all bosses are one hit kills.

    I was just told to do all the songs on the promise they weren't terrible, excusing ARZ, WFZ and a few others. Glad you like the same synths all over the place. :P

    I just implemented a quick thing in which if you have all the emeralds, you will get 50 rings and transform into Super Sonic before facing Silver Sonic. I'd rather have Sonic transform at the final boss, but I'll fix that later.

    As for Easy Mode, there really isn't much that could be done in terms of that other than reducing the boss counter. I will look at implementing a Time Over section however.
