To me, this is the perfect way to play Sonic 2. Not only are some annoying bugs fixed (e.g. Super Sonic getting stuck at the end of levels, Rexon badnik causing the game to crash, etc.) but there are additional features as well like the Super Sonic two button transformation ala Sonic 3 Complete. The best part? Being able to get perfect scores in levels like Aquatic Ruin Zone! Honestly this has made playing Sonic 2 fun for me again. And in the future whenever I play Sonic 2, it's going to be this version of the game because it just works and I really don't wanna worry about encountering issues throughout levels (especially that Super Sonic getting stuck at the end of the levels thing, that was annoying to deal with)! The *only* thing I can think of as a suggestion or improvement to this already well improved version of Sonic 2 would be being able to "cancel" out of Super Sonic like Sonic 3 Complete has (in addition to the two button transformation). Highly recommended! | |||

Really nice to see that you can transform into Super Sonic by your own desire instead of getting forced into it just like was in Sonic 2 vanilla. Will check how bugs were fixed but Super Sonic change already made me liking this hack from now on. Great job. Edit: February 24th, 2020. Definitely fixing perfect scores on maps like Aquatic Ruin act 2 are worth to play the game many times as possible. I can confirm that it works properly to get a perfect score on aquatic ruin act 2. Thank you very much for such contribution. Never saw any hack which would have such a simple and great game feature like this before. Please don't give up your work/support on this Sonic 2 improvement ROM hack, you have a big fan for your work here. :-) As a little suggestion and only my opinion, could I suggest fixing up a bit the Eggman boss fights in order to make them more difficult as they always were? My suggestion would be if you can add them more hits being required in order to win each Eggman fight and increasing way more his invincibility time for each hit you does in-between. So that way you won't win so fast and easily those Eggman fights like they're on Chemical Plant or Hill Top. Thanks again for all your work through this project. | |||

It's a long list of problems that were examined and patched up. Some graphics glitches are pretty visible in unpatched game. Other events maybe are rarely triggered but good to see gone. Compared to original game, it makes the game better - worry less about strange control responses or questionable random events. Feels like how a normal game should play: tight and consistent. All the way through to the end. Author did a great job packaging everything together. And keeps it up-to-date over its history. | |||
