Metal Sonic Hyperdrive

[Lone Devil]

Metal Sonic Hyperdrive is a heavy modification of Sonic the Hedgehog (1991) by Darkon360 for the Sega Genesis. with brand new Zones, Sonic CD style gameplay, Music, Playable Characters, and Modes. Starting Metal Sonic, taking Sonic's role as the main protagonist to stop Dr.Robotnik's greatest inventions yet. Also starting special guests such as Kirby, and Somari (who're meant to be Unlockables due to technical difficulties, also there for the lulz.).

Story:
One day, after the defeat of Dr.Robotnik by the hands of Sonic. Robotnik decided to rebuild Eggrobo to travel Mobius to search for the Chaos Emeralds. Eggrobo kidnapped Tails in the Mystic Ruins, by sending him into Metallic Madness, but luckily, Tails escaped. he decided to sneak into Robotnik's lab and grab the parts of his robots and pieces. Tails later go to his home in the Mystic Ruins and created a new robot, based off Metal Sonic's classic model, Codename: METAL. with the ability to feel and behave almost exactly like Sonic. Tails was able to track Eggrobo to where hes heading by using his Radar, so Tails sent Metal Sonic to Resort Isle, where Eggrobo is heading to. in hopes to find the Chaos Emeralds and destroy Dr.Eggman's plans once and for all.

About time one of my favourite rom hackers posted his stuff here.

*edit*

Just played it, I've been following this project for a long time.  It just keeps getting better and better.  This is 100x better than the earlier version that I played before.  This is one of my favourite romhacks of all time.

*edit again*

I made a version where you start with 99 lives

If you want to change the value just use a hex editor and adjust 0203CD to whatever number of lives you want to start with.  Don't forget that the value is represented in hex numbering.

Good to see you here, also thought your lives mod is pretty hilarious.

Your game is too difficult, needed more lives!

forget more lives, how about adjust the difficulty?

[Lone Devil]

That was sarcasm btw.

[Drakon]

I discovered my hack doesn't work for all difficulties so I made another that has 99 lives on all three difficulties:

Your gameplay footage showed that the ring notice is mute

Because it's a trailer, of course in-game sfx is mute.

Nice game.

BTW, where did all the music come from? I recognize Andy Bogard's theme in Zone 2: Act 3, but not much else.
