This run is the first EVER solo Sonic Classic Heroes TAS. Well I think so at least.
This movie also has some subtitles for people who don't know what's going on. While it's not as serious as the Team Hyper TAS. This movie contains flashing lights, which may be harmful to those with epilepsy.
Game Objectives
- Complete the game as fast as possible
- Optimize for In-Game Time (IGT)
- Reduce lag (we HATE lag.)
Comments
Sonic Classic Heroes is a ROM hack for the Sega Mega Drive that is the result of a collaboration between flamewing and ColinC10, combining their respective hacks Sonic 2 Heroes and Sonic 1 and 2. It therefore is a single ROM that offers the entire campaigns of Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic the Hedgehog 2, either alone or together; and enables the player to play as many characters such as Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles. The hack is named due to the ability to control a team of characters, which is reminiscent of the more recent 3D game Sonic Heroes.
This game also has a code that, when inputted into the sound test you unlock Team Hyper or Team Super. We use this to unlock the Hyper Characters for this TAS today.
Since this is a Hyper Knuckles TAS, we sadly can't use the other characters to our advantage. So we're stuck with the echidna for now.
Glitches and Tricks
While this game fixes a LOT of bugs that were in the original classic games. (zips, wraps, collision etc.) We still have some major glitches we can play with. Knuckles has a glitch where if he stops gliding on a specific frame before hitting the wall, the game will pull Knuckles up the wall allowing us to skip parts of the level or perform a zip in some cases.

While this run took some... time. Because we were both lazy doing the captions. It's very cool to finally get this done! Thank you for watching and we hope you enjoy.
