    You have been kotaku'd!

    ...kidding. but usually when a ROM hack gets allot of attn. the original game company notices. But giving that SEGA hasn't really cared before, they may not care now.

    So, when E-122-Psi finishes "Amy in Sonic 2", can we have Amy in Sonic 2 XL?

    I will never look at a chili dog the same again.

    I've been showing off this hack to a ton of people, all of which approve of it and get a good laugh. You got yourself a hit hack Captain Bozo and Ranger. :thumbsup:

    I took awhile in the area ahead though. Took a lot of fat burning on the outside of the cave.

    Wow, I see this has become big while I was away. I love how the Destructoid link doesn't bother linking back to Retro, despite all the other sites doing it. Instead, everyone's favourite fanboy wankstain in NeoGAF. Oh well =P

    Suppose he got carried up by Robotnik's Egg-o-matic? The thing ferries Robotnik around on a daily basis, you KNOW it could take the weight.

    Oh, it's getting big alright. :v:

    Man, how many hacks in the past have got this much recognition?

    Except Megamix and BroTro I bet none.
     
  12. Sonic Boom was pretty popular and overhyped here. I still wonder why...

    Well, fair question... how often does a hack really get sent in to the tips line of a bigger, mainstream site? I just linked Kotaku to a video and gave a very brief synopsis. That, and most hacks never get completed, so we're less prone to suggest betas.

    Small glitch I found while playing two-player (totally worth playing, if you've only watched the videos, you really need to go get an emulator), when Sonic is spin-dashing and Tails collects enough rings so that Sonic becomes too fat to spin-dash, he starts to glitch out a bit (Click for full view):

    And predictably, 2 player mode is a bit glitchy.

    Still though, hilarious, inspiring, and sickening at the same time.

    Any reason the first level won't load if I use the rom in the iPhone version of sonic 2? Is it the filesize? Iirc, the App loads a savestate. Niether the cheat nor newgame would work.

    Couldn't have used the springs there? They would have done fine :U

    This hack is awesome. It is deleriously hard in Chemical Plant zone but it's still cool. Sometimes looking at it it makes me want to hack, but I already have a fangame. =P

    Actually, you can't lose weight on those springs. It looks like while the "control lock" is active, Sonic can't lose weight.

    Yeah, same deal with sideway springs at the start of a 90 degree slope. It may launch you upwards, back down against the spring and up again ad infinitum, but I guess you actually have to move by your own strength to lose weight; no quick shortcuts.

    SEE, ALL THOSE FAD DIETS AND SIMPLIFIED EXERCISES ARE WORTHLESS.
    Just like in real life :B This hack is better thought-out then possibly even the creators themselves had in mind =P
