That's why when you know you're gonna go around loops or through a long series like that, go into ball form :3
It does that sometimes even if you're in ball form. EDIT: I think I figured out why it happens... I think one of the boosters forces you out of ball form... and if you are too big already, you're dead because you can't go back into it.
That has saved my ass so many times =P Loving this hack and I'm gonna try to beat this later on today.
Out of nowhere, Sonic loses 50 pounds in 3 seconds! This hack is absolutely incredible. I didn't read anything about it prior to playing it, so I was wondering what the heck was up with the rings, and why my jumping height was diminishing. It wasn't until I STOPPED jumping continuously that I realized Sonic was getting fat... ...on that note, very obese Sonic's jumping sprite is freaking hilarious. :v:
Instead of dying, you should get a bonus for finishing the level fat, since it would be rewarding risk taking. Like a weight bonus in addition to the time and ring bonuses that goes up exponentially for each weight level, immobile being worth the most by a substantial margin.
Right click that and select "play". It runs, but for some reason the level map gets screwed up frequently.
Fucken [appropriately] mirror'd: http://soniceatsrings.com/Sonic%202%20XL.zip Thanks, this is the challenge I've been waiting for. If this were Sonic 3, I don't think you'd hear whining about those damned red and white barrels.
It would've been great if Sonic was too fat to outrun the exploding death egg. One of those you win but not really scenarios.
He actually used to be unable to make the jump to Tails' plane after beating Wing Fortress. Pretty big kick in the balls moment there :v:
