Amy Rose in Sonic the Hedgehog 2
Version: 1.6
Last release: 2015-04-12
Status: Complete
System: Sega Mega Drive
Original game: Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (16-bit)
Credits: E-122-Psi
Additional programming and coding by:

Amy Rose in Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (aka Amy in Sonic 2) is a character swap hack Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the Sega Mega Drive, with character Amy Rose as playable character in place of Sonic the Hedgehog. The game's sprites (modified from Sonic CD) use Amy's initial design prior to Sonic Adventure.

The game was modified by Sonic Retro member E-122-Psi, with additional programming and coding by other members including MarkeyJester, MainMemory, FraGag, Selbi and Hayate.

Note: It's been hinted that a future revision of the hack will replace Tails with Cream the Rabbit.[1] This came to fruition with the release of Sonic the Hedgehog 2: Pink Edition.

Controls

Amy's abilities mirror those she utilized in the Sonic Advance series. She is slower than Sonic and can't use spin attacks (unless forced), however has a number of abilities (mostly using her Piko Piko Hammer) to gain manueverability and access areas Sonic had difficulty reaching:

  • Hammer Attack: Press A and Amy swings her hammer, damaging enemies. In addition, Amy can use her hammer to smash obstacles such as walls and hit springs.
  • Hammer Jump: Press Down + A on the ground and Amy smashes the hammer into the ground, launching her into the air.
  • Hammer Whirl: Press Down + A in the air and Amy swirls down toward the ground. If an enemy is hit Amy will bounce up again.
  • Upward Dash: Hold Up + B/C while on the ground and Amy will rev her feet on the spot as opposed to a spin dash. Let go of Down to charge full throttle in the facing direction. Be careful though, Amy is vulnerable to blockading obstacles and enemies.
  • Giant Steps: Press Down + B/C while on the ground and Amy will take a giant step forward as opposed to a spin dash. This can be repeated so long as there is room. This move is good for getting up steep slopes; she can even get up slopes the others can't spin dash up!

Amy gains a few stipulations akin to Knuckles in Sonic 2, for example, the ring quota in Special Stages are depleted and she retains her ring count after losing lives or entering starposts. 2 Player options (also with Amy replacing Sonic) and the ability to play as Tails remain from the original game however.

Bonus Level

On the level select Sound Test, type in the Proto Palace Zone code from Sonic 2 03, 03, 03, 0B, 10, 10, 10 and 04 in order to play a hidden bonus.
