Carls493 Sonic 3 & Knuckles Part 7: Mushroom Hill Zone (Super Tails)

🎯 Загружено автоматически через бота: 🛑 Оригинал: 📺 Carls493 — @Carls493 🎮 Игра: Sonic 3 & Knuckles 📃 Оригинальное описание: Having Tails in a Sonic & Knuckles level like Mushroom Hill Zone is something that could only be done in the combined Sonic 3 & Knuckles. I made Tails take a higher route for Act 1 compared to my Sonic & Tails version, but it’s completely possible to get Sonic on his own up there, too. Since Mushroom Hill is the first S&K level in S3&K, every Special Stage will now be about upgrading the Chaos Emeralds into Super Emeralds. Getting them all will FINALLY give Tails the ability to transform into Super Tails. Super Tails just has lighter fur that glows slowly, and he can move faster on the ground and through the air. He can still get tired flying too long, however. And since this is only a Super Transformation, he still can’t breathe underwater like the Hyper forms can in most of the Sonic 3 zones. The biggest quirk of Super Tails is how he is accompanied by four Super Flickies. These Super Flickies will seek and destroy every single vulnerable enemy in the game, including all the bosses, with only a couple of exceptions. Because of this, you could just beat a boss by standing still and letting your golden bird allies do all the work. When Tails changes back to normal, so do the flickies, which then leave the screen. I had a bit more fun with this part than I should have. When I realized I didn’t have all the Blue Super Emerald’s Special Stage’s sphere, I had to rely on a lot of luck to find it and beat the stage, anyway. Consider it a fluke, though, because I shouldn’t have been able to do that. Manipulating the screen by flying over Act 2’s starting boss field, and letting one of the birds hit Eggman out of the ground, causes the game’s background layers to glitch up while fighting Eggman, making the screen split a bit, and showing where those flickies are when they leave. --------------- Conclusion: Super Tails is broken! I wonder what a Hyper Tails would be like! He would grind this great game into dust. --------------- UPDATE 10/7/15: Apparently, my wonder above was already answered by this point. The Super Tails that you see in this game was originally going to be Hyper Tails, himself. This can be seen in some of the dumped ROMs of Sonic 3 where Tails had two transformations: Super Tails and Hyper Tails. The Super Tails in those beta copies was simply the same as this final one you see in this video, except he didn’t have any Super Flickies to accompany him. The Hyper Tails you’d be able to unlock in beta versions, however, brings those birds back. I guess when the entire Sonic 3 & Knuckles game was complete, they decided to cut the original version of Super Tails and reintroduce their planned Hyper Tails as the real Super Tails. I... hope you caught all of that...
