Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is a Sega Genesis game starring everyone's favorite Sonic the Hedgehog, along with his friend Miles "Tails" Prower and his rival-turned-buddy Knuckles the Echidna. With the Chaos Emeralds on hand, Sonic and Tails go off to investigate a mysterious even on Angel Island where they encounter Knuckles. Surprised and having the Chaos Emeralds stolen from him, Sonic expects Dr. Eggman to be behind everything yet again and sets off on another adventure.

ShiningProdigy9000 and Takz15x collaborate to complete the game in record time on "New Game+" using only Sonic and the power of the seven Super Emeralds. Glitch zipping and Hyper Sonic speeds ensues.

There are also alternate encodes that hack the camera so that it stays on Sonic as much as possible and overlay Sonic himself over other graphics layers to make it easier to see what's happening.

Warning: Hyper Sonic's form causes flashing lights which may not be appropriate for those with photosensitivity issues.
