    The reason you couldn't grab the ledge in cool edge night isn't because you needed to dash jump, its because you cant grab ledges after doing an attack.

      It is possible to grab a ledge shortly after a specific combo involving the shield. Now that I think about it the shield kinda breaks the game when it comes to the werehog

    Few things: cool vid! I didn't know you could skip the air shoes.
    Second, you could slide into robots instead of just avoiding them, its just a good way to carry momentum too.
    Third, you can actually drift out of a slide, thats probably whats happening in dragon road.
    Fourth, you made cool edge night harder than it needed to be. You can grab the ledge by jumping off the water barrel where it spawns.
    Last, its a shame you couldn't beat perfect dark gaia without boosting.
    Again, really cool vid 👍

    Oof, that ending must've felt heartbreaking after so much effort. But it's still a good video with a lot of effort put into it. Reminds me of my days with Sonic only in Sonic Heroes challenge, that prematurely ended fairly quickly, but I still decided to go on for my own interest. No joke, I thought this would be easy, but you proved me wrong. Good job!

    I love seeing these types of videos. A lot of the criticisms I've seen towards the Boost style of games is that people hate how the game is "Tied to one button". And I've always just thought: "...Then don't?" Sure it's harder but the Boost is actually minimally required. Outside a few sections, it's pretty optional so if you hate it so much just don't or occasionally use it.

    You can easily do Cool Edge Night by jumping on the barrel where it is. Go to the right as nearing the place where enemies spawn even on the higher platform will spawn them and the wall that blocks you. Grab the ice key, place it, jump on it, jump on the ice lock, and grab the ledge again. No need to carry the barrel anywhere.
    I am very impressed you figured out a way over those water sections, tho. Never would I have even come close. Kudos.

    Plot twist, in many media, Super Sonic is counted as a separate character from Sonic so technically you did beat the game as Sonic and the Werehog, you just failed the bonus stage as a hidden character (Super Sonic).

    There is another way to get around the issue with the ledge in Cool Edge Night 1. It involves using either sho-hog-ken, sho-claw-ken or tricky tornado uppercut followed by either the beginning of a Cresent moon strike or hurricane combo. You'll notice in the Cresent moon strike that if you only do inputs up to a certain point of where Sonic would start to do the punches he will instead remain in the air. The same applies for hurricane combo except when his arms are stretched out slashing. During this period of time, hold A and after you come out of the combo, Sonic will be able to grab the ledge. This works for any ledge and the "not being able to grab a ledge after an attack" is a property of all ledges, the aforementioned method allows you to bypass that

    This is really cool! Good work! While I know it's not possible to beat the Wii/PS2 version without boosting, now this video makes me wonder how much of it is possible since it has completely different level design as well as some completely changed boss fights (most notably Dark Guardian being a straight up combat fight and an infinitely better Dark Gaia and Perfect Dark Gaia fight (which forces you to literally fill up a Boost Gauge to attack)). Also no running on water segments because of the way the boost works. I should find my copy of Unwiished and see

    There is another way to cross water sections, which is by air dashing just as Sonic touches the water. It's a very slow process that's hard to keep going consistently, but its a great last ditch effort if you lose speed and can't drift. It also allows you to get past the ramp section in Dragon Road Day.

    It’s a popular misconceptions that Unleashed created the Boost but it was actually Dimps with Sonic Rush on the DS, and all Sonic Team did was transfer the idea into 3d.
    Yes, I’m aware it’s a simple nitpick and that it’s not really that important but it is a mistake nonetheless. So yeah lambast me in the replies for “lol why do you care nerd” and the like but I just like to retort this common misunderstanding anytime I see it.
