This is an obsoleted TAS. View a new version here: youtu.be/SozBrWg-ecM

Happy 24th anniversary to Um Jammer Lammy!

hi, sorry for not uploading in a while, it's because of school and other stuff. anyway, here's another Sonic TAS, but improved. the original can be seen here: youtube.com/watch?v=WusJ5WiB1nI

a tool-assisted speedrun is like a speedrun, but it's done so by rerecording, editing, save-stating, and frame advancing a playthrough of a game. more information can be seen in tasvideos.org

sonic hacking contest entries mean that an entry gets successfully entered into the website. this hack was made by bagumba, and the release date was set to be in 4th october 2015

here's some differences about this hack:
- sonic can now spindash & super-peel out
- five acts get new level designs
- there's new music in each level
- it crashes on mobile phones when ristar's "go ahead" theme is at the four second mark unless you have RetroArch
- after Carbon Chaos Act 3, everything goes back to normal
- special stages have time limits
- sonic cd's balance sprites replace sonic's current balancing sprites

i improved on the previous run by under 30 seconds thanks to spindashes and crafty techniques to save some seconds.

this sonic rom hack is pretty intriguing and alluring, by the way. give it a try and see if you can beat my time!
(i wonder if bahndaten or shiro paradox beat my time...)
