Here's the Sonic 2 ROM Hack that I entered for the hacking contest this year:

Sonic 2 East Side Island



This is a level layout hack that is supposed to make Sonic 2 more challenging. The "story," so to speak, is that in an alternate dimension, the events of Sonic 2 took place on East Side Island, which has similar areas to West Side Island, but are more difficult to explore.

Emerald Nite Zone. The Tails Monitor does nothing, but there's one in each level (except for Death Chase and Death Egg). You can try to find them and bust them open if you want.


Sunken Abyss Zone.


Hell Hill Zone. That dropping fire is an interesting object I discovering using Saxman's object list.


Death Wing Zone.


Unknown Zone.


As I said, the game is supposed to be more difficult, but is it difficult because of decent game design or difficult because of poor game design? Tell me what you like and what you don't like, I'd love to hear to hear it.

I haven't met a Flying Battery based song I didn't like.

This is not an exception.
