About This Game
Introduction: "Sonic 2 Haz" is a comprehensive ROM hack of the 1992 Sega Genesis game "Sonic the Hedgehog 2." It is a level design hack that completely rebuilds the game's original zones, offering new stage layouts while retaining the core visual and audio assets. The setting uses the familiar zone names like Emerald Hill and Chemical Plant, but the pathways, enemy placement, and gimmicks are entirely custom.
Gameplay & Mechanics: The hack uses Sonic and Tails as the playable characters, with their standard "Sonic 2" move set, including the Spin Dash. The core physics engine is unchanged from the original game, preserving its precise momentum and slope handling. The primary mechanical change is the level design itself, which is significantly more challenging and complex. The layouts demand precise platforming and route memorization, often featuring tighter corridors, more punishing bottomless pits, and intricate enemy patterns that disrupt the flow of the original game's stages.
Key Features:
- Completely redesigned level layouts for all main zones, creating a fresh and demanding platforming challenge.
- Retention of the original game's Special Stages for Chaos Emerald collection, accessed via checkpoints with 50 rings.
- An emphasis on difficult, maze-like stage design that tests player skill and knowledge of Sonic 2's engine limits.
