Hack description

This hack is a early hack of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for Genesis which gives Tails the ability to fly. No flight code was ported over from Sonic 3 so the physics are a bit different. Only the ability to fly was ported so Tails don't have his other abilities from Sonic 3. This also means that Tails does not tire and can fly indefinitely.

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

Not so great	MathUser2929	2016-06-09	Version 3
While this hack does give you the option to fly while playing as Tails, it's not a port of Sonic 3 code so it behaves much differently. Tails don't swim and he never gets tired either. I guess you can check this out if you wanna see hacking history and see what people had to put up with before we were porting code from other games and using Sonic Retro SCHG's. Not really recommended.
