The thing I love with TAS is the way the author has some fun making the speed run by playing with the characters and giving them some animations. This is so pleasant to watch 😂
This is the most enjoyable tool-assisted run I've seen for a 2D Sonic game. I know it isn't optimised for time, but I like that the tool-assist actually plays the game, rather than exploiting glitches to skip levels. Collecting all the emeralds was fun too, and I like that you made a complete run of the game without getting hurt once. And you can add me to the list of people who had no idea this game existed. I really want to play it now, because it feels like everything the first two Sonic games should have been, if that makes sense. Sonic in the Green Hill Zone has a spin-dash! And the shield boxes from Sonic 3 are all there too. They even added little parachutes to the animals in the Sky Chase zone. Oh my God, I love this game so much. And Amy piloting the Tornado at the end - genius!

Sonic hyper state: He's able to breathe underwater, and able to teleport the direction he's facing and while at it he's causes a shockwave that kills badniks on screen. Tails hyper state: able to fly higher, and he attracts animals that can transform as well and can attack badniks for him Knuckles hyper state: able to glide and climb faster, when he use he's fist to climb an wall it causes and earthquake
sorry im late, but you're right, these games are hard! the reason it looks so easy here is because this is a tool-assisted speedrun. that means the person playing is able to play the game frame by frame, as well as look inside the memory, in order to make inputs exactly when they need to in order to get the fastest time possible. it's really cool stuff!
Jaden the Gamer You can argue all you want about Metropolis Zone and that it’s hard, because it is, but what do you expect. It the last “real” zone in the game. What should it be? Easy? I don’t like it but it’s not my least favorite. It has good music as well
Man, I remember how hard I popped off when I finished the Sonic 1 levels and then it started the Emerald Hill Zone theme after I had all the emeralds. This Rom is legendary.
TAS stands for tool assisted speedrun. People use them to show perfect speed runs of video games, using tricks that are humanly impossible to perform. People use their knowledge of the game to program the TAS frame-by-frame, submitting these programmed inputs to the controller. In other words, TAS is a speedrun robot, not a real speed runner. If this was meant to be a joke, I’m sorry for being a know it all. I genuinely thought when reading this that you didn’t know what a TAS was. Nice profile pic by the way, I’m gonna assume that you too are a Pikmin fan. I dint see too many of those.
Gf: if you don’t beat act 2 of green hill in less than 30 seconds you have to hang out with me for rest of Saturday and your not hanging out with the boys Me: 1:19
That's true of Sonic & Tails in the original Sonic 2 as well, but the third character has the same delay as Tails does in Sonic 2. So if you can deal with Sonic 2's special stages normally, this won't be any harder.

Ok , too op
I love the image of Knuckles posing with Tiny Continue Sonic at the end of Green Hill Act 2.
Hahaha since you say it
There's something about the characters patiently waiting on the up and down boxes in Spring Yard that really gets to me.
Sonic hyper state: He's able to breathe underwater, and able to teleport the direction he's facing and while at it he's causes a shockwave that kills badniks on screen.
Tails hyper state: able to fly higher, and he attracts animals that can transform as well and can attack badniks for him
Knuckles hyper state: able to glide and climb faster, when he use he's fist to climb an wall it causes and earthquake
But in Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Tails doesn't have a hyper form.
I remember these games being a lot harder. You make this look so easy.
sorry im late, but you're right, these games are hard! the reason it looks so easy here is because this is a tool-assisted speedrun. that means the person playing is able to play the game frame by frame, as well as look inside the memory, in order to make inputs exactly when they need to in order to get the fastest time possible. it's really cool stuff!

Cause it’s team sonic going through the levels is gonna be a breeze and I hate metropolis hardest zone in sonic history EVER!!!
Jaden the Gamer You can argue all you want about Metropolis Zone and that it’s hard, because it is, but what do you expect. It the last “real” zone in the game. What should it be? Easy? I don’t like it but it’s not my least favorite. It has good music as well

Hi
Man, I remember how hard I popped off when I finished the Sonic 1 levels and then it started the Emerald Hill Zone theme after I had all the emeralds. This Rom is legendary.
I have a new love for watching TAS speed runs now
Heh, have fun!! My first few TAS videos were Super Mario 64 ones from about 8 years ago. This love for TAS never died out.
@@stargazersdance i will check them out
It's incredible to have 3 of my favorite characters of the Sonic franchise. Also love the original soundtrack throughout the game. Great gameplay. 😉🕺😁

Eggman: OH NO!

"Gotta go fast." Literally.
RUN. SONIC

Omg the Sounds and the graphics took me back 20+ years… wow
I loved this rom hack and video so much when I was in my Sonic phase as a kid. This is still such a cool rom hack and congrats on the 10mil views!
10M Viewers It Real
Being able to play as three characters breaks so many of these zones in half
1:42 Poor Knuckles, getting sucker punched by Continue Sonic, there!

I love that sonic inverts his color for his super.
Meanwhile knuckles color shifts from normal to pink.

For Sonic 2's bonus stage, tails and knuckles are just a hitbox increaser.
That's true of Sonic & Tails in the original Sonic 2 as well, but the third character has the same delay as Tails does in Sonic 2. So if you can deal with Sonic 2's special stages normally, this won't be any harder.
