Hack description

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 XL is a joke hack which adds a new gameplay gimmick. The standard rings the player normally collect have been replaced by onion rings. The more onion rings the player collects the fatter he gets. As he gets fatter he gets slower, jumps shorter, and becomes unable to roll. If the player eats too many onion rings the player will die. The player can burn off the fat by running or by breaking the ? monitors found throughout the levels.

==Facts about the hack==

It takes about 5 rings to to go up a level in fatness.

Spin dashing and normal spinning is lost at fat level 5.

It takes about 30 rings to die of fatness.

The fatter the player gets the less the player is able to look up and down, and gives up at level 6.

If using debug mode to finish Death Egg Zone as while fat the player goes down to fat level 3.

If breaking a "?" box, Sonic will lose weight instantly.

The patch is in xdelta format due to shifted data resulting in IPS patches containing original code. The ROM should be in BIN format.

Difficult, but interesting	diablo666	2020-10-10	Version 1.0
The concept of Healthy eating - just shows this hack. For the more you eat of these onion rings, the more fat you become. It's difficult, but interesting. It's a pity THE tails didn't change, it was interesting to look at it. It is much more difficult than the original - but it makes you not only think about each step, but also give the idea that there is a lot to eat or there is harmful - bad. I definitely recommend it if you want to test it. DeepMeaning

OK, who did this?	NesDraug	2019-06-19	Version 1.0
I tried this hack and I could literally not stop playing. It's just too funny seeing Sonic get fat and try to avoid the onion rings. Do more of these XL hacks. Shut up and take my money!

Funny hack	MathUser2929	2016-06-08	Version 1.0
This hack is pretty funny. I suppose you could get fat eating alot of onion rings, even tho onions are a vegtable. The getting fat from onion rings mechanic adds a new kinda challenge to the game. I think you should play it to laugh at the joke and then see how far you can get with the new challenge.
