Somehow better-looking than other SOR2 HacksKKHell2021-10-31Version 1.0

I only downloaded this because it looked like a joke hack, but I was blown away by how GARFIELD of all characters looks halfway decent animation-wise. Normally character replacement hacks for SOR2 look kinda janky, such as the Dio or KFM hacks. Hell, Garfield even has unique animations for when he has a weapon. Unfortunately, stuff like Axel, Galsia and Donovan's clothes, and text are turned orange because they seem to share Max's palette but this can be chalked down to the Genesis/Megadrive's limitations. After all, it's a common problem with Sonic 1 character replacement hacks and the only reason Sonic 1 wasn't supported by the lock-on cartridge for Sonic and Knuckles.
