Sonic 2 Delta is based on  [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Simon Wai prototype)]], whereas Sonic 2 Delta 0 is based on the [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Nick Arcade prototype)]]. Sonic 2 Delta II uses final ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 2]]'' code and Sonic 2 Delta III uses Sonic the Hedgehog 2 REV02 code.

==Sonic 2 Delta==
+
A hack similar in concept, called ''[[Sonic 2 Long Version]]'', has been released by another hacker, [[User:Sonic Hachelle-Bee|Sonic Hachelle-Bee]].
Sonic 2 Delta is a hack of the the ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Simon Wai prototype)|Sonic 2 Simon Wai prototype]]''. Some levels have been changed according to their appearance in the ''Simon Wai prototype'' of ''Sonic the Hedgehog 2'', such as the original graphics and music of the early Casino Night Zone. The level order of Sonic 2 Delta is also similar to the original intended order, rather than that used in the final version.
 
  
===Levels===
+
===''Sonic 2 Delta II''===
'''The order of levels is directly as shown in the level select menu''':
 
*[[Emerald Hill Zone]]
 
*[[Winter level|Winter Hill Zone]]: The graphics that are used are unlike any descriptions ever given of the Winter level other than the winter setting. There are trees present but not christmas trees. Also no graphics from the Desert Level are reused. The BGM used is from Labyrinth Zone in ''Sonic 1''.
 
*[[Wood Zone]]: The graphics are similar to what is seen in the [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Simon Wai prototype)|Simon Wai prototype]]. It uses a different BGM although (2 player Emerald Hill Zone). No boss can be found on this level.
 
*[[Dust Hill Zone]]: Uses graphics similar to the mockup screenshot of Dust Hill Zone which was featured in many magazines. It's a desert only setting. The BGM used is from Oil Ocean Zone. The Emerald Hill Boss is reused for this level with no alterations.
 
*[[Metropolis Zone]]
 
*[[Wing Fortress Zone|Sky Fortress Zone]]
 
*[[Hill Top Zone]]
 
*[[Hidden Palace Zone]]: The graphics and layout are the same as those found in the Nick Arcade prototype. The BGM used is the same that was used in the Final version of Sonic 2. A lift can be found on the long ramp that was unused in the Nick Arcade prototype, but it leads to nowhere. There is also no boss to be found on this level.
 
*[[Sky Chase Zone]]
 
*[[Oil Ocean Zone]]
 
*[[Mystic Cave Zone]]
 
*[[Casino Night Zone]]
 
*[[Chemical Plant Zone]]
 
*[[Genocide City Zone]]: The background graphics of Oil Ocean Zone are reused but in a nighttime setting. The foreground also reuses Chemical Plant Zone graphics. Water can be found on the bottom portion of the level. The BGM is different than what was on the Nick Arcade prototype (It is actually from the Final Zone in ''Sonic 1''). No boss is used in this level.
 
*[[Aquatic Ruin Zone|Neo Green Hill Zone]]
 
*[[Death Egg Zone]]
