Hey guys, tried going Super in this hack? Its REALLY hard, because Sonic can get too fat with less than 50 rings, so to go super you need the boxes help to decrease the size first. The results are hilarious though, because Super Sonic is bogged down too!
Yeah I forgot to turn that off. The sprites are gonna be all messed up as Super Sonic, but it's still hilarious to see those images :D
Haha, loving this. It's a conundrum - you need at least one ring or you've no margin for error, but too many and... BOOM! XD Bouncing around as immobile Sonic in CNZ was funny - got a jackpot on the slot machine; I don't think I actually touched the ground before he kicked the bucket, haha. XD Just a flying, bouncing blob of flab. I do particularly love the way exercising actually loses you weight gradually, though - it wastes time, but ensures the game's not incompletable if you're too damn fat to get up a ramp but not too fat to be immobile, since you can just exercise your way to a weight that'll be able to progress. Very well thought out. = ) I managed to break it a bit though - spindashed the two ring boxes + shield near the beginning of CPZ 2 without thinking.Sonic became morbidly obese and couldn't move, but his graphics didn't immediately change to reflect this, so I had an immobile normal-looking Sonic for a few seconds before they updated. = P
One more bug - managed to end Aquatic Ruin Zone 1 as immobile Sonic (took the top route and was spinning when I became immobile, so span all the way to the end sign and hit it). As Sonic couldn't move off-screen, the act never ended, but since the end sign had been hit Sonic never died either. Might be worth adding a check to see if Sonic is immobile and allowing the act to end (or Sonic to die, if you're feeling mean) in this situation. Still hilarious seeing him sitting there endlessly in his obese state, though. XD
Tails has a good metabolism I see :v: I forgot to try out the Special Stage You should also port the HCZ booster as a treadmill or something
There was this one educational flash game that did just this. It was a HUGE ripoff of Sonic (springs, loops, spikes, fast paced level design) that when you eat unhealthy food you got slower and fatter. Music changed too, it became all slow and "wobbily" sounding. However, that game allowed you to stop and do pushups to get yourself back to a skinny state. It used to be here, but now seems to be currently 404'd, sadly.
xD I just downloaded this, I love this hack! I just died on purpose just to see him get huge. Edit: 1,000 post!
Signpost bug is fixed. File is below for those who don't wanna get it off the first page. http://www.filefactory.com/file/b2873d2/n/Sonic_2_XL.zip
Pure awesome. If anyone beats it with all emeralds without savestates, you are amazing, plain and simple.
This is good but I got a game over in a terrible spot in CPZ act 1 May we could also get tails sometime?
